He became a contestant on the reality TV show The Biggest Loser: Glory Days and soon came to the stark realization he was emotionally dead inside. As the weeks went by on the show, Scott evaluated every aspect of his life. He developed a simple game plan to change his life. For the first time, he began to love himself. He finally was in control of his own destiny. As you follow Scott's odyssey of triumph, tragedy, and redemption, you too will see the power of moving beyond life's obstacles and becoming Alive Again."--Publisher description
