ABC News Sabina Ghebremedhin reports:

A little more than a year ago, personal trainer Drew Manning stopped working out, and started eating fast food, white bread, sugary cereal and soda.

Manning, a self-proclaimed fitness addict, started the weight-gain journey to better understand what his overweight clients go through. He let himself go completely, and chronicled the process in video blog on his website, Fit2Fat2Fit.com.

Manning gained 23.5 pounds by week 4. As the weeks progressed, his confidence and his health took a downturn.

He started to get winded easily, and his glucose level and blood pressure were high. Its getting a little scary, he said in one of his video blogs.

Mannings wife, Lynn, was prepared to see the physical changes in her husband, but didnt expect the emotional and personality changes that came with the weight gain.

His self-confidence, that completely went away and depleted, she said, explaining that he was becoming lethargic, lazy, not helping around the house.

I was in denial at first until she kept pointing out the things I was doing, Manning said today on Good Morning America. But I did become lazier. I had less energy so I did become exhausted and I kept seeing how it affected our relationship because of that. And so thats where the biggest surprise was, the emotional [part].

When Manning started his experiment on May 7, 2011, he had a 34.5-inch waist and 17-inch neck, and he weighed 193 pounds. Six months later, he had a 48-inch waist, 19-inch neck and he weighed 265 pounds. His clothes didnt fit.
