About (request update)

James Tate's personal journey to lose and keep off weight resulted in him establishing Beyond W8 Loss Total Wellness Center LLC, a Christ-led wellness center focused on “Total Fat Loss” (Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, Physical) and improving overall health. He uses his experience as a certified health/wellness/nutrition coach to help people confront their battle of the bulge.
Growing up in Washington, D.C., Tate was always a big child, a big teenager and a big adult. Tate’s lowest high school weight was 275 pounds. In 2010, he weighed 415 pounds. Through accepting Christ as his Lord and Savior, prayer, fasting, church ministries, changes in his eating lifestyle, reading books and exercise, he shed 200+ pounds without any surgery, shots, pills or fad diets.
Tate is also the founder of The Fight 4 Your Life, Knocking Out Obesity & Disease Movement, which shows people that their battles are winnable if they stay close and listen to “The Trainer,” who is God.
Tate received his training from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, where he was trained in more than 100 dietary theories and studied a variety of practical lifestyle coaching methods. Drawing on this knowledge, Tate is able to help people create a completely personalized “roadmap to health” that suits their unique body, lifestyle, preferences and goals.
He is the assistant director of the B.O.D.Y. by Christ Ministry at First Baptist Church of Glenarden in Upper Marlboro, Md., under the leadership of Pastor John K. Jenkins Sr.
