Hello and welcome to Episode 76 of the Internet’s most beloved low-carb podcast–“The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!”
Today, we bring you a “lost” episode that was only recently found by our host Jimmy while cleaning up his laptop. In the Spring a few months back, Jimmy attended the regional American Society of Bariatric Physicians (ASBP) conference in Nashville, TN and interviewed tons of low-carb-savvy bariatric doctors.
One of these extremely educated bariatric physicians Jimmy spoke with was Dr. Allen Rader from Medical Bariatrics in Idaho. Unfortunately, that interview never aired because the original audio file became quite corrupted.
But after a week of work and a big roll of tape, some super glue, and anything else sticky we could find, this “lost” interview with Dr. Rader has now been stitched back together and is in shape for your podcast enjoyment!
Jimmy was extremely impressed by Dr. Rader’s unique approach to visualizing carbs, why he avoids use the phrase “falling off the wagon” with his patients, and how a person’s commitment to weight loss is more important than the speed at which they lose. This one’s a real low-carb treat for you indeed!
In the end, we know you will agree that this fantastic interview with the fun and folksy, low-carb lovin’ doctor from the land of potatoes was well worth the wait!

A doctor who practices what he preaches, I LOVE IT!!!Great work Kevin and Jimmy.
Dr. Rader is INDEED the REAL DEAL, Linda! I’m so glad we “saved” this interview.
Cool interview. I LIKE this guy!
He was pretty neat! And LOVED my story…he couldn’t stop talking about how proud he was of me at lunch that day for resisting temptation. I think he was a little envious at my ability to say “no” to the pie.
This was really good and helpful, thanks Jimmy, I put it on my blog so others can find you…. Rene’
