Desperate to lose lots of weight as fast as possible, Jeremy White set a goal early in 2011 to visit all National Parks in the 48 contiguous states of the USA before 2014 ended and lose 48 pounds from doing that. Ads on television show many other ways to lose weight, but White wanted to learn more about his nation and nature and set a weight loss goal that was motivating. Other ways to weight loss may be better or worse, but Jeremy eventually realized that few of those have any risk of bear attacks, getting stuck in mud, or falling off a mountain. Did White lose any weight by doing this? Did a disaster in a park end his goal instead? This is the book you can read to find out.
Autorenporträt
Jeremy White is a tenured cynic who penned a hopeful book. He founded South Louisiana's premier satirical publication in 2004, eight years before relaunching the award-winning Red Shtick Magazine as its all-digital progeny, The Red Shtick. The comic-turned-writer created and produced Baton Rouge's first and only weekly stand-up open mic for years, during which Jeremy hosted and produced The Red Stick Comedy Block, a locally broadcast, weekly half-hour TV show featuring area comics performing before live audiences around town. The passionate Cajun can often be heard on various popular radio shows as either a guest or a guest host. A longtime football official and Mardi Gras krewe captain, Jeremy earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering at LSU, where he met his wife, Edie. They've been happily married since 1992 and live in Baton Rouge with their cat, Waffles.
