Murder to Murdering Fat: OJ Simpson and Craig Titus

As we all know, OJ Simpson was released from prison in October 2017. We watched an all-star athlete be torn down and humiliated time and time again following his non-conviction from the murder of his wife. Following the murder trial, OJ, unfortunately, seemed to stay on the radar of police. After some poor choices in 2008, he found himself behind bars at the Lovelock Correctional Facility in Nevada. His days of staying in shape and eating healthy seemed to be retired like his football career. OJ packed on weight as if he was going into hibernation — getting his weight to over 300 pounds. Then OJ Simpson and bodybuilder, Craig Titus, who is in jail for murder, started killing it in prison — helping OJ drop nearly 100 pounds before his release in 2017.

The Death of Little Debbie for OJ Simpson

While in prison, OJ Simpson was devouring Little Debbie cakes as well as other high-carb and high-calorie foods such as candy bars and ice cream. It’s apparent that his lifestyle then compared to his playing days were drastically different.

His weight limited his mobility and he quickly found he couldn’t get around as easily as he once did. His health deteriorated and he was on the brink of diabetes. Then all of a sudden, OJ Simpson found new life when he found out he had a parole date set. Just like that, he flipped a switch and decided to change his lifestyle with the help of Craig Titus. OJ killed off Little Debbie snacks and started eating better. He went from no exercise to starting an exercise program.



A New Diet Plan for The Juice

OJ went from nearly 6,000 calories a day down to 2,600. He started a diet made available to inmates called the “diabetic diet.” As the name would imply, it’s make up is from foods that are low in carbohydrates and sugars. Instead of consuming his normal diet of pizza, hot dogs, and hamburgers, OJ Simpson was given a turkey burger or chicken patty along with some low-carb vegetables.

Prison Workouts with OJ Simpson

Most of OJ’s time was spent in his cell eating junk food rather than being active. But, once his parole date was around the corner, he put his shoes on both feet and started hitting the “yard” for some exercise. He and Craig Titus would walk around the track found at the prison as a form of cardio. Prior, during yard time, OJ Simpson would be seen up in the bleachers watching the other inmates playing softball or enjoying the little freedom that had during the day.

Titus, a former bodybuilder turned murder (also convicted of kidnapping and arson), helped OJ drop 100 pounds to get ready for his big release from prison. Titus is serving a 55-year sentence for the murder of his assistant. Titus’ ex-wife, Kelly Ryan, who divorced Titus while in prison, helped murder their assistant after an altercation and then took the body in the trunk of their vehicle and attempted to burn all evidence in the middle of the desert. Obviously, they didn’t get away with it. Kelly was released in October 2017, around the same time as OJ’s release.
