I think I am more excited about this post than I have been of any in quite awhile. To be honest (and maybe TMI), things have been a little rocky over here for the Powell Pack. We have let the busyness of life get in the way of so much?most importantly our relationship. And we both notice it. I came across this gem of a video from two years ago at the perfect time. It reminds me of all the amazingness my husband is. It reminds me of his vision, his passion, his love, his compassion, and his contagious attitude. It reminds me why I am so lucky to call him mine.
This video was a surprise from me to Chris at a party we threw in 2012. Little did Chris know, I had a tattoo artist there ready to help him cross off some of his Roman numerals. Watch the video to see what I am talking about?
To date, Chris has crossed off only through 100,000. While I personally feel he has made a much bigger impact than this, I must know in the comments below who feels Chris deserves to cross off the 1,000,000, signifying One Million Lives positively impacted. Chris refuses to cross of the million until he has proof?let?s prove it to him!

I’m not sure what number I am, but after reading Choose To Lose in October 2012 I lost 50 pounds going from 185 to 135- amazing! My whole town was inspired! I can’t tell you enough how important you are in our lives, even though we have never met. I had lost a baby at 20 weeks in 2009 and twins in 2010 and I was carrying so much emotional weight. I was heavy, having heart issues, and just not feeling well. After reading Chris’ words, so positive, and so real…I finally felt strong enough to do what I had to do and the weight just came off. My heart is doing great now, and we had a new baby girl in August!! Thank you for being exactly who you are. Thank you for exuding love and light to people who can only see darkness. You are so loved. God bless you.
1 million? Oh Powells you have helped a universe. Anyone that has ever seen or read anything about you has been effected by you. No matter for 1 lb or 1000. The shows have inspired me so much. When I posted on your facebook and you responded I was in shock. I didn’t think I deserved such awesomeness as a simple comment from such a great person. 160 down and still a few more to go. 1 pound at a time. Thank you for helping me
What an amazing individual! From the very first time I watched EWL several years ago, I knew his heartfelt messages would spread far and wide. And clearly they have. Thanks for all that you do, so selflessly, Chris!! This world is better because of your actions.
I would say, yes, cross off one million! Through your show and your books, Facebook, instagram, and so much more, I have definitely been inspired. I felt my first twinge of inspiration during Jacqui’s episode. I have lost almost 100 pounds overall. You deserve this!
Dang Chris you need to cross that million through because whether you believe it or not, there’s more than a million lives touched by what you and your amazing wife / team do.
I just typed Chris Powell into YouTube and found that your Extreme Weight Loss season episode with Rachel has almost 3 million views.
Millions of us are looking to you, for your help and inspiration and you’re way beyond a million people globally now.
Thank you x
THANKYOU!!!
You both have changed and impacted my life so much! I’ve always struggled with compulsive over eatting and carried extra weight, feeling so alone so often when no one else in your family has the same issues, although my family and friends have always supported me, it was your show and your words that showed me I’m not alone, I am strong enough and I am worth the effort. I have lost 50lbs with paleo/clean eating and Crossfit. Your daily IG posts (both of you)help keep me on track and smiling. I changed my major in school from nursing to health coach currently attending the institute for integrative nutrition) after working for 10 yrs as a medical assistant and now a CNA on the Cardiac unit of a large hospital. it breaks my heart to see so many of my patients with CHF, kidney failure, and diabetes, if someone could have helped them earlier on maybe they wouldnt be in the hospital suffering. I want to help people like me and try to change people’s lives before they get so sick and so defeated. I will change lives with you. I don’t know what number I am, but I have a feeling it’s over 1 million that you have touched and helped, if you can have such a profound effect on me, a person you have never met…. I can only imagine how much you touch those you actually get to meet!!! Amazing, that is what you are. Thank you thank you thank you . Maybe one day I’ll get to meet you guys! I live in Utah, and maybe one day I can do a Crossfit workout with Chris, Heidi, the Hacksaw and Bruce pitcher:) a girl can dream right!
Love,
Carlie
I would love more than anything to have Chris change our daughters life and help him cross another number off.
Hi Tammy: Since Chris can’t help each person individually, he and Heidi have made all the tools they use on the show available for all of us to use, so give them a try with your daughter! You can find their complete carb cycling program in their book, “Choose More, Lose More for Life,” and it works! Their book will teach you and her everything she needs to know to achieve her own transformation. Learn about the basics here: https://heidipowell.net/9060/how-to-begin-your-transformation-journey-step-by-step/. Your daughter can do this!
Chris and Heidi have inspired us not only to live healthier lives but even more so to help people, inspire, give, encourage and love them. A wonderful positive impact for my family of 4!
Go make an appointment to cross of 1,000,000!!. Because you are a true inspiration, even for people who don’t have to lose weight
What a sweet video, Heidi! You both have definitely impacted my, and my husband’s, life! We look up and admire you both so much! We strive to make healthy choices everyday and to make each other better – a lot like you and Chris. Mark off that 1 MILLION! You definitely deserve it, Chris!! (P.S. We can’t wait till Extreme Weight Loss is back on TV! We miss watching it and seeing lives changed for the better!)
