ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) — From the outside, Bill McGahan looked like he lived a pretty good life.

Bill McGahan says he felt horrible, had no energy and snored loudly when he weighed 225 pounds.

He had a great marriage, four beautiful children and a great job in real estate. But the truth of the matter was he felt horrible.

McGahan, who was in his mid-40s, was overweight at 225 pounds. He could barely fit into his clothes; he snored loudly and didn’t have the energy to play with his then 12-year-old daughter and 8-year-old triplets.

Bad eating habits, alcohol and a sedentary lifestyle had caught up with McGahan, who said he began to realize he could no longer eat the way he used to in college.

"I was on the see-food diet: What you see is what you eat," said McGahan. "Tons of carbs, pasta, pizza, steak, fries … all the good stuff."

McGahan knew he needed to change his eating and exercise habits, but he wasn’t getting the results he wanted at the gym. There also was something more important than losing weight — he wanted to be healthy enough to play baseball and spend quality time with his kids.

He hated working out, so instead of focusing on diet and fitness — he decided to set another goal.
