Jared Fogle, the "Subway guy" who is now less than half the man he used to be, has been America's poster boy for the effects of healthy eating for the past couple of years.
He has been traveling the country for months talking to groups and sharing his story of losing 235 pounds by eating daily at the popular sandwich chain.
Constant travel and a packed scheduled haven't allowed much time for curling up with a book, though as a child Fogle was an avid reader.
When he was a kid Fogle's favorites were Beverly Cleary books, "the Ramona books," and Judy Blume. And as an early reader he was a fan of Curious George adventures.
But currently Fogle doesn't have a book on his night stand, as his night stand changes daily. His reading time primarily consists of newspapers and magazines.
"With me on the road as much as I am I just have to fit things in when I can," said Fogle.
Not to say he doesn't like novels.
"If I do read books, it is going to be Stephen King horror novels," said Fogle.
If he had to name an all-time favorite book he said King's earliest novel "Carrie" would be it. But most spine-chilling thrillers keep him turning pages.
