‘I Used To Be Fat’ Trainer Talks Dominick’s Transformation

Saran Dunn Moore says aspiring chef featured on show’s latest episode ’embraced this whole process’ of losing weight. By Kara Warner Dominick on “I Used to Be Fat” Photo: MTV On Wednesday night’s new episode of “I Used to Be Fat,” we were introduced to 18-year-old Dominick. An aspiring chef with a big Italian family, the teen’s love for food and lack of physical activity had him tipping the scale at more than 300 pounds. Luckily for Dominick, though, he was paired with Saran Dunn Moore, who showed him how to incorporate healthier foods and an exercise regimen into his life. Moore’s guidance helped him to shed some very unnecessary pounds, and when MTV News met with the trainer, we asked how Dominick was doing since the show’s taping. “He’s loving school, he’s cooking,” Moore told us. “He calls me: ‘Saran, I just made this and this is how I made it. I made it with whole-wheat pasta, and I put salmon on it.’ He is so excited about cooking healthier foods,” she added. “We talk all the time and I ask him, ‘Are you getting to the gym? Are you lifting weights?’ And he’s like, ‘That’s my second home.’ ” Moore said she still can’t believe the transformation Dominick’s undergone, including a newfound active lifestyle. “Seriously, these kids didn’t do a thing until this summer and now they’re just as addicted to it as I am.” And Moore explained Dominick’s healthy approach to cooking has had as much of an impact on his body as his workouts. “He’s cooking with olive oil, finding different substitutes, like using plain yogurt instead of cottage cheese,” she said. “So he’s really embraced this whole process of eating healthier and changing the whole family dynamics of eating healthier.” Don’t miss “I Used to Be Fat” on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.

‘I Used To Be Fat’ Trainer Discusses New Episode’s ‘Struggle’

Dominick ‘used to be active, but after a while, things fell apart,’ Saran Dunn Moore tells MTV News of Wednesday night’s show. By Kara Warner Dominick on “I Used to Be Fat” Photo: MTV On Wednesday night’s (January 12) episode of “I Used to Be Fat,” we met 18-year-old Dominick on the day of his high school graduation. He is part of a big Italian family that loves food and lots of it, which was one of two big obstacles for him to overcome on the show. MTV News caught up with enthusiastic trainer Saran Dunn Moore to get the scoop on Dominick’s journey. “Part of his struggle, part of his story, he comes from a large Italian family,” Moore told us. “They make spreads of pasta and lots of unhealthy foods, so the biggest challenge for him was to learn how to make healthier choices and teach the family how to cook healthier,” she explained, adding that Dominick is now learning firsthand about healthy cooking. “He’s going to school to be a chef, and he is phenomenal. His food is so good.” The other challenge in Dominick’s transformation involved exercise. In pushing the scale at a weight of more than 300 pounds, Moore said she had to get him moving. “Dominick was a kid who was inactive, didn’t do much. He sat around all day,” she said. “He used to play tennis, he used to be active, but after a while, things fell apart. He didn’t have that push to say, ‘Get up off the couch.’ It was accepted [by Dominick and his family]: ‘This is what Dominick does. He doesn’t move.’ It was like, ‘Oh well.’ ” Moore said her job was to get in there and change that attitude: “No, that’s not OK. I’m coming in and I’m changing your life.” Don’t miss “I Used to Be Fat” on Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.
