Fred Ford is an author, speaker, and midlife transformation authority who proves reinvention is not only possible—it’s powerful. After losing and maintaining 135 pounds starting at age 61, Fred rejected the broken, medication-first weight-loss model and created Think and Grow Thin, a mindset-driven, holistic framework for sustainable health and personal renewal. His work speaks directly to men and women in midlife who are tired of starting over and ready to finally get it right—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Blending real-world experience with practical strategy, Fred helps people reclaim energy, confidence, and personal agency without diets, drugs, or surgery. His message resonates with audiences seeking a true second act—one rooted in clarity, discipline, and self-leadership. Fred doesn’t teach temporary fixes; he teaches permanent reinvention.
