How Fox 26 KRIV's Isiah Carey lost weight



Just in time for November television sweeps, Fox 26 KRIV lets us in on how Isiah Carey aka "The Insite" lost all of his weight. Here's a hint, it was the old fashioned way.

If you work in media the best way to lose weight is to quit your job. I dropped 10 pounds without trying after leaving KTRK 13. Think about it...reduced stress, no more free food or snack machines calling your name. Of course you could also insert jokes here about how if you quit, you'll have a lot less money to spend on food!

UPDATE
Isiah Carey said on Twitter I was wrong for saying this story ran on purpose during sweeps. But I don't see how I am wrong. Carey tweets, "The managers approached me and asked if I would do the segment."

OK, sounds like it was put on the old sweeps calendar to air in November. I don't get the problem. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
