Whether he’s working out himself or training his wife and daughter, you’ll often catch Anthony Lolli at the gym. The 44-year-old Brooklynite is a bodybuilding champ – but that wasn’t always the case.
“Since as far back as I can remember I struggled with my weight,” Anthony said.
Just a few years ago, he was a real estate mogul and best selling author at the top of his game when it came to everything – but his weight.
“At my heaviest, I was 315 lbs. I started getting sleep apnea, chest pains…” Anthony said.
So when his two and a half year old daughter, at the time, noticed daddy was obese,
“She said Daddy you’re fat I don’t want you to die… that was it- that was the moment that changed my life,” he said.
He got to work and documented his fitness journey. Anthony lost 140 lbs in nine months, had surgery to remove loose skin around his middle and entered his first body-building competition the following year.
His wife, Tereza, is his biggest supporter, fan and student.
“I just give him all the credit because he actually committed and did it,” Tereza said. “He took his life serious and he took his family’s serious.”
Once an entrepreneur, always an entrepreneur. Anthony turned his own transformation into a business: “Radical Body Transformations” helping others get fit and healthy.
“It was bigger than just me,” Anthony said. “I think maybe God used me as a tool as an instrument to help other people.”
And it’s all thanks to his daughter, Love.
“Well, me and my mom and my brother Legend inspired my Dad to lose weight,” Love said, “and… He did it and I’m so proud of him!”
