That is pretty awesome that he trains with them. I feel very sad for people that let themselves get that big. Treadmill will not do anything if you cannot control what you put in your mouth.

I changed it on Twitter because I forgot to say he was diabetic.

Great job! Located in Temecula, CA and centrally located between San Diego, Los Angeles and San Bernardino! After the Diabetic conference hosted by Dr. Combs, the word will spread like wildfire in the most densely populated areas of CA.

I changed it on Twitter because I forgot to say he was diabetic. I hope he's okay with the attention (thinking of the Dani Mathers snapchat in the gym story - I know this is not the same thing, but still some people get touchy when their image is used without permission).

They are fine with it. He is proud to be working out. He met Walt at church a long time ago. Last month he lost his job:-( Walt called him and said, this is a good thing! It's an opportunity. Now you have extra time for some workouts. I'll get you a membership and meet you there in the mornings and workout with you! Walt has also paid me himself to train people that he sends to me that can't afford it. He says even if people are overweight and workout they are healthier than people that are skinny and don't!

Very impressive video Sports! Thanks for sharing. This looks like a fantastic group practice with the right values and leadership. If they get behind Afrezza, good things will surely happen (hopefully, quickly). Chris C Thanks Chris! The diabetic seminar that Walts putting on that he wants MNKD to speak at isn't for 4 or 5 weeks. But it sounds like there will be many more doc's from all over. Not just Rancho Medical:-) So I don't know yet what Mike's going to do. Try and talk to Rancho M. right away, and then go back for the seminar? Not sure but Walts convinced that T2's do NOT want to go on shots when they need to, and that Afrezza is the ticket:-) He asked me all about how the teenagers dosed. I think he is going to love learning about Afrezza! Maybe Walt is smart enough to go after the lost decade (maybe even pre-diabetics). T2's should be on mealtime insulin immediately, but they won't go for 3+ shots per day until they really really have to, no matter what the cost to their health. They are not really compliant, and the doctors know that they won't be able to push this with RAA shots, not to mention the safety concerns. Smart doctors will realize that 3+ puffs a day is a much easier request for their patients to comply. The earlier the patients start Afrezza, the better and cheaper the long-term outcome will be. That's something insurance companies can get behind, eventually.

I love this story... people who care.. Afrezza would be perfect for this man... it will be one step toward helping him lose weight in combo with the gym, better diet . and the love of good people. I hope you will keep us updated on how things go.

That's something insurance companies can get behind, eventually. Exactly what I think his major market will be! This has taken so long lakon. All those months waiting for SNY to show up! At last we seem to be making some head way:-)

I hope you will keep us updated on how things go. I will sweed, I've been in a lot of gyms over the years and have never been around so many positive people! Me and ( the big guy) only met a week ago, but I know he's excited and will keep me informed on his end.

Dr. Walt Combs is the doctor that owns Rancho Medical that the gym I work in is inside of. Walt had told me that he never saw a SNY rep! So I was on the bike this morning and Walts on the treadmill. He has a real fat man with him. He starts telling the fat man how I lost all that weight on my own with out surgery. I talked to the man awhile and then I told Walt about how MNKD has their own reps now! He starts telling the man who is also a diabetic about Afrezza. The man says, that sounds to good to be true? Walt says, we have been waiting years for this! And all about how he himself hates shots! Then about how fast acting it is. Then I had a thought: I went and got my cell and had Walt listen to the A Kowalski ( JDRF ) 2min cut video. On how Afrezza is astounding but MNKD is in trouble. He listened and then said OK! ( Have MNKD call me right away and send a local rep out! I have 35 doctors working for me and we are having a diabetic conference in 6 weeks. I want the rep to come and give a talk on Afrezza.) I said, great:-)) And then you can start writing scrips and be on the early adapters list of prescribing doctors! (( Happy Dance)) I just tweeted Mike and he said, we are on it!! Sports,
Any update on Dr. Combs conference or feedback he received from Mike?

The last time I saw Dr. Combs, a little over a week ago, he had not heard a word from MNKD yet. They are hitting the doc's that were writing the scripts and stopped first I believe, so I'm hoping it will be soon! He has no issues with lung problems. Doesn't think there will be any and is excited about the product. So I'm crossing my fingers they get out there:-)
