1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: Then you are a man who at one point in

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: your life lost a sizeable amount of weight.

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 2: Yes, I lost about a total of eighty pounds. I

4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 2: ended up ultimately gaining about twenty pounds of that back.

5
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 2: But I have kept off the remaining sixty pounds, and

6
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 2: I consider that a job well done. That's like a

7
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 2: sack of concrete that I was carrying around every day

8
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 2: that is now off my shoulders.

9
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, and never. It's interesting because I never thought of

10
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: you some because you're very tall. Yes, I never thought

11
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: of you some morbidly obese human. But I was quite tubby.

12
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: But then you see the phone as you go, wow,

13
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 1: you did. You did have some weight to lose, and

14
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: you did it. Now did you conscientiously make the choice

15
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: to put the extra twenty pounds back on after you

16
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: lost the first eighty.

17
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 2: It was not conscientious. It's just I modulated my calorie intake.

18
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 2: That's what it all came down to. It is calorie intake.

19
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 2: And if you are taking in far more calories than

20
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 2: you need, then you will continue to put on the weight.

21
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: So I was not eating as few calories as I

22
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: used to, and consequently I put on a few more

23
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: pounds back but I am not eating as many as

24
00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: I once did.

25
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been as like I've been lifestyle. I've been

26
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 1: as high in my life as one point eighty. I've

27
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: been as low as one forty. Usually my physical fitness

28
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,960
Speaker 1: was related to what sort of interpersonal relationship I was

29
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,119
Speaker 1: attempting to engage in with a member of the opposite sex,

30
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: and then you would get your fitness level according to

31
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: According to that, I am right in the middle of

32
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: that right now, at my middle age, which is essentially

33
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: my driver's license weight from twenty five years ago or

34
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: whatever it was. And so I feel pretty proud about that.

35
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: I exercised now to stay alive more so than to

36
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: impress anyone. But I mentioned all of this because the

37
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: Daily Mail had a big expose a on the folks

38
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: that take the shots to lose weight, the Wagovi and Munjaro,

39
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: zempic Zembia. I mean, there's all many different ones, and

40
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: no disputing a large amount of people have lost a

41
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: large amount of weight in relatively short times. Now it's

42
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: my understanding what it's like an appetite supprise right like

43
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: it was that, what it does, well, I don't know.

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I've never taken it, but it helps crave.

45
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: It helps your hunger cravings or desire to eat food.

46
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: I think that's part of it. I don't know, maybe

47
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: we could have somebody come on here who's done it,

48
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: but anyway, clearly very successful for many people. However, a

49
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: new study has come out that shows that if you're

50
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: a person who has done that to lose weight, you

51
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: are going to need to remain on that shot for

52
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: the remainder of your days, unless you're okay with putting

53
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: the pounds back on. Because according to the Daily Mail,

54
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,399
Speaker 1: there was an organization that examined thirty seven studies involving

55
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: more than nine three hundred people, and what they found

56
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: was that for most of those people, when the jabs

57
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: were stop, the weight loss not only return, but it

58
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: returned rapidly, no matter how much weight you had actually lost.

59
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: So in order to keep the weight off, you are

60
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 2: now essentially doomed to continue paying for what is a

61
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 2: very expensive medication for the rest of your life just

62
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 2: to keep the weight off. That's why they Ultimately the

63
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: best way to go about this is by embracing lifestyle change,

64
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 2: and I think any dietitian or any weight loss specialist

65
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 2: is going to tell you that the way to keep

66
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: off the weight life long term is through a lifestyle change, dietary.

67
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: You know, alterations can't be just a temporary thing. Ultimately

68
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: you have to go for the long term.

69
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. The diet is a huge part of

70
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: any sort of weight loss journey. Exercises a huge part

71
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 1: of any sort of weight loss journey. And you know,

72
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: really it's not just what you eat, but when you

73
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: eat all of that stuff. And so one of the

74
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: things that I'd talked about, you know, obviously these these

75
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: weight loss shots and everybody makes their own personal, you know,

76
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: health choices, and that's great. One of my concerns that

77
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: I've said, and I felt sort of the same way

78
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: about the COVID vaccine, which is kind of played out,

79
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: which is, we don't really know what it's going to

80
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: look like in five years. Very true, we don't really

81
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: know what it's going to look like in ten years.

82
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: And while many people are being helped with the weight loss,

83
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: which is great, the reality is it's going to be

84
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: a new frontier five or ten years from now where

85
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: we're seeing were there any health side effects that sustained

86
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: or popped up as a result of now people apparently

87
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: having to use these for the remainder of their days

88
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: that they desire to keep the weight of.

89
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: Well, we've already seen some deleterious side effects as a

90
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 2: result of the medication, like osteoporosis symptoms. It makes your

91
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: bones brittle and fragile, like that of a baby bird's.

92
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 2: That's not good.
