I was just like, yes, I had doctor 18 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: Alexander Alexandra Sowah. I think that's how you pronounce her 19 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: last name. She wrote this book called the Ozembic Revolution. 20 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: If you haven't listened to that podcast, it was very interesting. 21 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: She's very informative, and I was telling you who you 22 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: are an Ozembic user. We talked about you a lot 23 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: because one of my big things in life is like, 24 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: I don't like how our culture throws pills at things. 25 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: And so seeing this rise of ozimpic as this weight 26 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: loss you know, remedy or revolution, yeah, I mean revolution. Truly, 27 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: it has been a little alarming to me because I'm like, 28 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: here we go again, We're just throwing a pill at something. 29 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: How is this long lasting? How is this actually getting 30 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: to the root of the problem. What about everyone's health 31 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: issues that come you know, the health issues that come 32 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: with obesity. And she was very, very informative because she 33 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: really made me realize that this is actually a treatment 34 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: for the disease of obesity. And what I'm talking about 35 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: is the prevention of obesity. So before we can even 36 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: get to prevention, you have to treat the disease and 37 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: just looking at obesity as even a disease, you know, 38 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: because I think. 39 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 2: That's most people don't think of it. They think of it, 40 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: Yeah I didn't before. 41 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: So anyway, it was super helpful for me for just 42 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: kind of like helping me understand why this is maybe 43 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: a good thing in our culture. And then also she 44 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: puts together this whole like program and plan for people, 45 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: and she describes it in the book of Ways to 46 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: actually change your life and change your lifestyle and not 47 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: only to maintain the weight loss, but to actually like 48 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: heal your body, which I just love incorporating all of it. 49 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: So we had a great conversation. Go check it out. 50 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: But obviously on Fridays, we you know, start talking about 51 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: what we talked about on Wednesday in our own form, 52 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: and so I kind of wanted to just start with, like, 53 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: I want to hear how this has been for you, 54 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: because you've lost a ton of weight. You look amazing, 55 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: and I think you're feeling amazing. More importantly, I want 56 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: to hear about your journey and maybe even some of 57 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: the pluses and minuses of what you found on ozimpic 58 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: or the GLP one medication. 59 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know I arrived, I was like everyone 60 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 3: watching everyone just like shed a ton of weight around 61 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 3: me or on the internet or whatever. And I finally 62 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 3: found an affordable way to get it done because my 63 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 3: insurance doesn't cover it. And it worked pretty quickly for me, 64 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 3: Like I was just shocked at how quickly it turned. 65 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: Off the food we call it food noise. 66 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 3: Okay, and for people that have struggles with weight, it's 67 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 3: there's this noise in your head, like you can drive 68 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: by McDonald's sign and you aren't even thinking about McDonald's 69 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 3: and you're like, I want some fucking McDonald's now, and 70 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 3: it's just and you can pass it and not get it, 71 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 3: but then your mind is still telling you that you 72 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 3: want it. And it's it's an addiction to you know, 73 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 3: various forms of food, sugar, whatever they're putting in these 74 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 3: processed foods to make them addictive, and that's a really 75 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 3: hard thing to overcome. 76 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: You know. 77 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 3: Also, you know, we would be remiss to not mentioned that, 78 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 3: like it is a obesity, is a disease, and you know, 79 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: it's it's it's not a very far line to have 80 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 3: to cross to be technically medically considered obese, right, you know, 81 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 3: Like I think a lot of us think that it's 82 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 3: these really big people are obese. No, like most people 83 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 3: in America I think are medically obese, myself included. And 84 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 3: it there is, it is a sickness. It's a disease, 85 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 3: and I don't think a lot of people realize that. 86 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 3: And what makes it really unique to other sicknesses is 87 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: you have to eat to survive. So it's one thing 88 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 3: if like you want to quit smoking or you want 89 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 3: to quit doing drugs or drinking alcohol, like you don't 90 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 3: need those things to subsist and survive, but you need food. 91 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 3: So it's really challenging because you can't it's really hard 92 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 3: to turn it off. Where this drug steps in is 93 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,799 Speaker 3: it helps. It helps curb the food noise, It helps 94 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 3: curb the cravings. So when I first started using it, 95 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 3: when I would sit down to eat, like it's say, 96 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 3: for instance, I would go to a Mexican restaurant I 97 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 3: would eat prior to using ozembic, I would eat a 98 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 3: basket of chips myself without thinking about it, because you're 99 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 3: just sitting there talking. 100 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 2: You got your market rita, You're just doing it. 101 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 3: When you think about like the number of chips that 102 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 3: are in a basket, I probably ate like eight full 103 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 3: tortillas myself before I. 104 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: Put any real food in my heart. 105 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 3: And then I would eat all of my fajidas and 106 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,119 Speaker 3: you know, call it a meal and think I'd done great. 107 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: And then once I started use in the drug, I 108 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 3: would go in and if I ate three chips, I 109 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 3: could barely even touch my food, Like I would just 110 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: be full and my body would react to it, and 111 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 3: I couldn't believe it. I was like, I know this 112 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: sounds crazy, but I'm full, Like my mind was telling 113 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 3: me I was full. 114 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: And I don't know how it. 115 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: Works, but maybe it just speeds up those receptors, because 116 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: that is one of the problems is if you eat. 117 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 3: I'm a fast eater too, so it's my stomach would 118 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 3: be full, but it wasn't telling my brain that I 119 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 3: was full yet, so I would overeat. But you know, 120 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: my whole point and I don't want to be on 121 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 3: it forever. I'm still using and I'm like a little 122 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,799 Speaker 3: over a year in was that I needed a jump start, 123 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: and it gave me the confidence and the ability to 124 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 3: move again, to get back into the gym, to start, 125 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 3: you know, doing cardio just to move better, and those 126 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 3: feelings being able to move better feels so much better 127 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: than feeling like you look better. 128 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 4: It really does, Like I can understand that yet when 129 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 4: I was I was at the airport the other day 130 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 4: and I had a really short layover and I had 131 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 4: to run, and I can remember the last time before 132 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 4: I lost some weight having to run, and like just 133 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 4: being like a sweaty fat mask when I got on 134 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 4: the plane and being like really embarrassed. 135 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 3: And this time I wasn't sweating, I wasn't out of breath. 136 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: And I have asthma too, So it's like it's improved 137 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 3: that for me, and it just it it's just a 138 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 3: it's created a different type of pride in myself. And 139 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 3: you know, I have to remind myself every day like 140 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 3: this is a lifelong sort of journey and it's about you. 141 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 3: I've used it to do a full on reset and 142 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: I'm trying to learn new habits. I'm trying to wake 143 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 3: up differently, get a different start to my day, all 144 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 3: of those things so that when I do come off 145 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 3: of the drug, I'm prepared to just continue this on 146 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 3: my own. 147 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a lot of what that's what this 148 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: book is for. And I highly like I am so. 149 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: I think Western medicine is wonderful to use when needed. 150 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: Like I always feel like I'm kind of bashing pills 151 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: and things. I think there's a necessary piece of it, 152 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: and we have the science to do things that we 153 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: never could do in the past. I just find it disturbing, 154 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: especially with the food stuff in our culture because they're 155 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: putting so much stuff in our food. I mean, I've 156 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: talked about this and talked about this, and I'm going 157 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: to keep talking about it because I do think people 158 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: are waking up to it. But all of the underlying 159 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: chemicals and our food. Even when you're talking about that 160 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: Mexican restaurant, I'm like, yeah, and how much stuff was 161 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: pumped into that? You know, we don't think about that 162 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: when we go see these restaurants, and I notice a 163 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: difference between when I'm eating at home versus when I'm 164 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 1: eating out a bunch or like I think a lot 165 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: of us during COVID notice that, like when you're cooking 166 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: your own food, you know what's going into it. Right 167 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: when you're in a restaurant, it could look healthy from 168 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: the outside, but there's all these like underlying things in it. 169 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: And so that's just my bigger problem typically is I'm like, okay, 170 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: but like, why are we not looking at how everyone 171 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: got obese or like how everyone got sick. The other piece, 172 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: I love that you brought up that, like you have 173 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: to eat. It's like sex addiction, you know, like sex 174 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: and food are two things that you can become addicted 175 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: to the process or the chemicals or whatever it is, 176 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: but they're also needed for our survival like as human beings. Yeah, 177 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: and so I think it's really important to talk about that, 178 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: which she does in this book. But I'm glad you're 179 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: looking at it that way too, because you don't want 180 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: to like go into like anarexia to lose weight either. 181 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 2: No. 182 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 3: And I also think like that is you know, we're 183 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 3: seeing you see reports of some celebrities have been on 184 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 3: this for a long time that probably didn't ever need 185 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 3: to be on it in the first place, right, that 186 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 3: have taken I mean, I think Sharon Osbourne has like 187 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 3: publicly said like don't don't ever do it because she 188 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 3: she's reached a point where she can't stop losing weight 189 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 3: and she looks like a skeleton with skin. 190 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and. 191 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 3: So I mean there's that too, And I know a 192 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 3: couple of people that have gotten so unhealthily thin. But 193 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 3: I think that speaks to the disease because it's a 194 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 3: being a fat person. And I say that with a 195 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: little giggle because that's in my mind, that's what I 196 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 3: tell myself. I am, you know, is very mental. You know, 197 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 3: you think about what people think about your body. 198 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 2: All the time. 199 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: Really yeah, and. 200 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: When like you go and try clothes on, you're reminded 201 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 3: that you're fat. Like there's just those things. It's a 202 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 3: very mental thing. So I think it can be a 203 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 3: very slippery slope. When you have someone that's struggling mentally 204 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 3: with the shape of their body that is finally in 205 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 3: a place where they're liking what their body is doing, 206 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 3: that that becomes the new addiction, right, the penalty that 207 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 3: you're not really addressing the problem because the problem is 208 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 3: you've got some sort of bad relationship with food and 209 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 3: you haven't learned how to deal with that. So I 210 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 3: do think that there is as much good as there 211 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 3: is in this drug. It also it needs to be 212 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 3: used responsibly because I do think that if someone is 213 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 3: just an overeater and has. 214 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 2: A terrible relationship with food. 215 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 3: It's just the pendulum that's wing really far in the 216 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 3: wrong direction. 217 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 2: If you get. 218 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: You've talked a little bit about the importance of journaling 219 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: and actually emotionally tapping into what is the underlying thing here, 220 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: because one of the things you mentioned is that a 221 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: lot of times when you get your weight in check, 222 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: it can just manifest into another addiction or not, you know, 223 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: which is the same for like an alcoholic who gets 224 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: sober and all of that stuff. Like a lot of 225 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: what we talked about was really fascinating to me because 226 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: of the work I've done in twelve Step of just 227 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: looking at this in that capacity, because I don't think 228 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: I did. And I think it's like a cultural addiction 229 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: almost happening that we've seen, and like it's cultural for us. 230 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: So it's almost like it's like alcoholism, I guess, like 231 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: the way that all of these things are just almost 232 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: like normalized here. So it's good. I think it's good 233 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: that we're talking about this. And one of the things 234 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 1: that's interesting to me to look at is there used 235 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: to be kind of a big stigma around like a 236 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: weight loss drug or weight loss surgeries and stuff like that. 237 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: And if you notice now it's like openly talked about 238 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: on social media, it's very common. Do you see the 239 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: shift in this, Like, how do you feel stigma wise 240 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: even saying you're on it. 241 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 2: Well, I. 242 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: Was very vocal about it from the get go because 243 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 3: I was seeing there was in the beginning, and some 244 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 3: of it was right so because the drug is so 245 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 3: incredibly expensive, particularly in the US, and Kelly shared something 246 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 3: with me last night on Instagram. 247 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 2: That blew my mind. So the company that. 248 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 3: Makes makes a Zepic, which is just a brand name 249 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 3: of a semigluetide GLP one medicine. They're a Norwegian company 250 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 3: called Novo Disc and last year they became their there 251 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: their income there, they made more money than the entire 252 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 3: country of Norway. 253 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: That's wild. 254 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 2: They're the most. 255 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: They passed Apple, they're the they're the most valuable company in 256 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: the world now. And in the UK it costs like 257 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: ninety five dollars a month. In Norway it costs like 258 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty dollars a month. In the US 259 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 3: it's between one thousand and fifteen hundred dollars a month. 260 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 3: And it's it's it's insanity. So there were a lot 261 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 3: of people that were I you know, I got off 262 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 3: track a little bit, but there were a lot of 263 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 3: people that were angry because it was it seemsingly was 264 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 3: only celebrities and rich people could afford to do it. 265 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: Right Now, they're alternative. 266 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 3: They are other companies that are making semaglue tide that 267 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 3: is the same exact chemical compound and that in fact, 268 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: that's what I'm using is through a compounding pharmacy, so 269 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 3: it's a lot cheaper and a much more affordable. It's 270 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 3: still not as cheap as these other countries are getting it. 271 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 3: But I digress. I think there was a stigma because 272 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 3: people were angry that they didn't have access to it, 273 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 3: and so like you would see I mean even with Elle, 274 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 3: my client, when she lost a bunch of weight, like 275 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 3: if she posted a new photo of herself where she 276 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 3: looked pretty and thin, like the comments would just be ozempic, ozempic, ozempic, 277 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 3: and it was like people were mad at her for 278 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 3: being healthy and she was working her ass off, I remember, 279 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 3: but she. 280 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 2: Worked really really hard. 281 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 3: And to see people like diminish it by just like 282 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 3: pointing out a drug, who fucking cares? 283 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: Like I think putting your We get one. 284 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: Body at one life and the body. Our body is 285 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: simply just the vessel for us to move around in 286 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 3: the world. It does not define who we are. And 287 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 3: so I think it is really important in this conversation 288 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 3: is for nobody to feel shame. It's so much easier 289 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 3: said than done. Coming from someone who has carried shame 290 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 3: about their body for a really long time. 291 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: I get it. I'm here for you. I know it. 292 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 3: So I also think it's really important that if you 293 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 3: love your body and it looks different than what you're 294 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 3: seeing on television and on models, then fucking love your body. 295 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: That is the point. It is a vessel. Obviously, it 296 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 3: is best to be as healthy as you can, but 297 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 3: there are people that are in bigger bodies that are 298 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: perfectly healthy. In fact, I would happily give my blood 299 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 3: work for you to put on Instagram because I've always 300 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 3: had amazing fucking blood work. 301 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 2: I am a really healthy person. 302 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 3: I just happen to have a bigger body, and I 303 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: just want to keep getting healthier because as I age, 304 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 3: it's going to be harder for my body to keep up. 305 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 3: It's having to work too hard. So yes, I think 306 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 3: that there are stigmas I and I think there's an 307 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 3: industry of stigma that makes a lot of money making 308 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 3: sure fat people hate themselves because the gym industry is 309 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: built on it. They're built on those monthly things where 310 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: people come in January and they stop going. There's supplements, 311 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 3: there's books, there's I mean, now like with the whole 312 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 3: internet shift to the internet, there's influencers, like people need 313 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 3: people to be unhealthy to sustain business, and the stigma 314 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 3: comes because it a light is it shines a light 315 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 3: on your shame when you step into it. And I 316 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 3: think that, you know, we all need to just work 317 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 3: together to sort of just embrace everybody with love. Like again, 318 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 3: you know, I think obesity aside. We're all on our 319 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 3: own journeys. Like some people have thyroid issues and that's 320 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 3: all it is, is their thyroid is out of whack 321 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 3: and it makes them fat. It doesn't matter what they eat, yeah, 322 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 3: or how hard they work out. And I think it's 323 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: just what we need to do as a society is 324 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 3: embrace each other for our uniqueness and support each other 325 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 3: when we're making good decisions. That's it, you know, and 326 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 3: let's kill the stigma. 327 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's I love what you just said 328 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: about support each other when we're making good decisions, because 329 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: like it just made me think sometimes I actually get 330 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: a lot of shit in our friend group for the 331 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: way that I eat. Yeah, like a lot. There was 332 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: like a year where I was like, eh, I just 333 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: don't want to drink. I mean I talked about that 334 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: on the podcast. I just was, you know, wanting to 335 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: kind of dive deeper into some spiritual work that I 336 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: was doing, and alcohol seemed like it didn't fit in 337 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: that picture for a minute. And it's interesting though, because 338 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,719 Speaker 1: through that I had to get really strong with myself 339 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: because I knew, like I knew I was doing what 340 00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 1: I needed to do for me and something that was 341 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: good for me. But when everyone around you is not 342 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 1: doing that or not eating that way like I do 343 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: gluten free, dairy free, and a lot of times when 344 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: we go to order, people are like, oh god, you know, 345 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: here we go and I'm like, I like, I laugh 346 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: about it, but it's only because I have a strong 347 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: sense of self in that that I know what's good 348 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: for my body and what doesn't work. But it's the 349 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: same thing, Like it can literally be anyone and we 350 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: all feel the same way. I think everyone kind of 351 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 1: just wants to be a part of with this kind 352 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: of stuff. And so when you feel alone or left 353 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: alone when you are doing yeah, because I try not 354 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: to make it a big thing, other people make it 355 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: a bigger thing than I do. But what I've also 356 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,239 Speaker 1: tapped into is most of the time when people are 357 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: making fun of you, it's because of their own shame. 358 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: Like what you're saying is they don't want to look 359 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: at the fact that they're not doing that, right. Yeah. 360 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: So I'm like, I'm not trying to shine a loud 361 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: ya you do you, you know whatever, But I had 362 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: to be really strong and you know this is better 363 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: for your body because the times where I've tried not 364 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 1: to do that, I do suffer and I like the consequences. 365 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: And it's like I want to feel good and I 366 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: want to feel good in my body, like you're talking about, 367 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: I want to feel help. 368 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 2: I've definitely seen you. 369 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 3: I've been with you when you're like, fuck it, I'm 370 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 3: eating this ice cream tonight. 371 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: I don't care what price I pay tomorrow. 372 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, And so it's like it really, I mean, because 373 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 3: it's not a vanity thing. And I think I think 374 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 3: the reason why we give you shit is because we've 375 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 3: all been at the table with that person who is 376 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 3: doing it because it's a. 377 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 2: Trend or whatever. 378 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,959 Speaker 3: Everyone's gluten free right now, Like we know that it 379 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 3: actually does make you sick. 380 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 2: So it's like we just give you shit for it. Yeah. 381 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 3: I also want to point out too, and this I'm 382 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 3: never really personally affected by this, but something to think 383 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 3: about for everybody out there. When you know someone is 384 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 3: on a weight loss journey and they've lost a lot 385 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 3: of weight and you see them for the first time. 386 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 3: I think you need to be very careful with how 387 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 3: you frame congratulations to them, because when you say to 388 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 3: someone like, oh my god, you are so thin, you 389 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 3: look amazing. Okay, in the moment, that is, it feels 390 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 3: like the right thing to say, but you have to 391 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 3: think about what that person who has struggled with their 392 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 3: body image their whole life is hearing. They're hearing, oh, 393 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 3: you used to think I was fat. You didn't think 394 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 3: I looked good before. And so it is like when 395 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 3: I say support people, support people with kindness, just be like, 396 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 3: I'm so proud of you for how hard you're working. 397 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 3: Acknowledge their work and not their body. I personally like, 398 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: I love it when people tell me that I look great, 399 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 3: you know, because I've been dying. I've been dying to 400 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 3: hear that, you know, I've been dying to hear that. 401 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 3: So but I think I only say that because it 402 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 3: has never personally hurt my feelings. 403 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: But I do think that there are a lot of 404 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 2: people out there that it would. 405 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: So I can see it's striving people to get obsessed 406 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: with weight loss like you were talking about earlier, like 407 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: going to the opposite side because you're you're all of 408 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: a sudden getting all of this affirmation for your body 409 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: that you haven't previously gotten, and so that gets addictive 410 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: too for all of us. I mean, yeah, we all 411 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 1: like validation. That's a really good point. Okay, So saying 412 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: I'm really proud of you on this journey, or like, 413 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: can you say so hard? 414 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think you can be like what 415 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 3: what are you doing? Like, Okay, you look like you've 416 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 3: been working hard something like that. I mean I think 417 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 3: it's like and I don't want to discourage people from 418 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 3: saying nice things, right, just just reframe it, okay, in 419 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 3: the same way that like, I'm sure as women like 420 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 3: when people are like, this is my friend Kelly, she's 421 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 3: so pretty, and you're like, I'm also smart, I'm funny, 422 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 3: I'm I own my own business, I do all these 423 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 3: I'm so much more than pretty. 424 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 2: So I think it's like. 425 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: It's totally understand what you're saying. Yeah, you just don't 426 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: want to be pigeonholed. And then also it's like, yeah 427 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: that it's a fine line because I mean I think 428 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: everyone wants to be told they look great too, but 429 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: so yeah, just kind of just trying not to make 430 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: such a big deal about. 431 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 3: Oh my god, and I think you could say you 432 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 3: look great, I just wouldn't be like, how'd you get 433 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 3: so skinny? 434 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 1: Yeah? You know, well, the one thing I noticed with 435 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: you is when you have like when you're working out, 436 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: you're taking care of yourself, there's a way you carry 437 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: yourself that's completely different. And it's like, so, yes, on 438 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: one hand, you've lost a lot of weight and you 439 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: look great, but there's also an energy about you that 440 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: I can I can see and maybe it's because I 441 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: know you so well, but it's like there's a confidence, 442 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: there's an energy, there's you feel comfortable in your own 443 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: skin kind of so when you walk in a room, 444 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: it's it's very different, it is, and so like, oh 445 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: my god, whoa, you look great or like so maybe 446 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: you can even say like you look like you're feeling 447 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 1: your like feeling good in your skin. 448 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, something like that. 449 00:22:53,720 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: Okay, we've kind of mentioned a couple of the things 450 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: about talking about weight loss and also like just my 451 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: new understanding of obesity after having the conversation with doctor Soa, 452 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 1: because I just didn't understand. And I know that sounds 453 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: very ignorant, but I think we all have these things. 454 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: The more she talked about it, I was like, this 455 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: is no different from any sort of addiction or not 456 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 1: paying attention to what we're doing in our culture, like 457 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: kind of just going through the motions of life without 458 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: being really present and aware with ourselves. And so to me, 459 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: it's like very applicable to very like a lot of 460 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: things that a lot of people can probably relate to, 461 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: even if they don't relate to obesity. But it is 462 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: more than just willpower. And you kind of touched on 463 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 1: this a little bit with like the driving past McDonald's, 464 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: So like when you are talking about those kind of circumstances, 465 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: can you help people who might not fully understand what 466 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: that's like? Is it it's is it like another addiction. 467 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 3: Of Well, I mean you have to think about there's 468 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 3: so many factors that affect how we think about food. Yeah, 469 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 3: there's advertising, which we're constantly being advertised, especially things like 470 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 3: fast food and snacks. There's also food manufacturing and food 471 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 3: I mean manufacturing, not even just growth, Like when you 472 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 3: think about all the chemicals that they're putting into. 473 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 2: Foods just to taste certain ways. 474 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 3: I read yesterday that the US is about to ban 475 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 3: red number five. 476 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: They are going to do it. I had read they 477 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: were in talks for that. 478 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 2: But that's great. 479 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: That's one. 480 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, because it was banned for in nineteen ninety for 481 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 3: a minute and then they pulled it back. But yeah, 482 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 3: it sounds like the FDA is moving forward to remove it. 483 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,479 Speaker 3: And yeah, there's just so many factors. And then also 484 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 3: on the flip side of it, like everyone's super attractive 485 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 3: and modeling and everyone's then so there's like an ideal 486 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 3: that has put out into the world that just creates 487 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 3: more shame, which then drives you to your comfort, which 488 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 3: is probably food, and it's a self flfilling prophecy. I 489 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 3: think in terms of just straight up obese too, it 490 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 3: is like when you think about how our media portrays 491 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 3: it too, it is about being fat versus skinny, and 492 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 3: there's no mental there's no mental part of it being addressed. 493 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 3: So it's like when you think of shows like My 494 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 3: six hundred Pound Life, it's kind of like just putting 495 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 3: obesity like front and center, and they're not like talking 496 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 3: about the real issues deeply because they're just trying to 497 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,719 Speaker 3: make good television even unlike The Biggest Loser, it was 498 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 3: just like about how much weight you lost and it 499 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 3: wasn't about how much you changed. And I don't know, Like, look, 500 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 3: I don't produce television shows, and I know that the 501 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 3: whole goal is to make entertainment, but I don't think 502 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:58,160 Speaker 3: it necessarily helped because it wasn't giving. And I've read 503 00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:59,959 Speaker 3: that a lot of the people that participate on that 504 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 3: show ended up gaining their way back because they were 505 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,239 Speaker 3: just being starved and working out too much and it 506 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 3: wasn't a full reset. I'm not really answering the question properly, 507 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 3: but I to get back to your question about like 508 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 3: the McDonald's. 509 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 2: It is it is just a. 510 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 3: When you think about food all the time, not only 511 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 3: are you thinking about eating it, but if you recognize, 512 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 3: like I have had the conversation with myself more times 513 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 3: than I could probably count, like when I have a 514 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 3: moment like that, like chip, you don't need a milkshake? Yeah, 515 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 3: but I really want one, But you don't need one. Okay, 516 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 3: I know I don't need it. I'm just I talk. 517 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 3: I can talk myself out of it sometimes and sometimes 518 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 3: I can't. And it really it is having a devil 519 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 3: on your shoulder, and so there is it's not just 520 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 3: a physical manifestation, there is a whole mental piece to 521 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 3: it too. And when you think about the fact that 522 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 3: bad foods are cheaper for you than healthy foods, and 523 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 3: the idea of convenience is so important for work. I mean, 524 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 3: we now live in a society where most households have 525 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 3: two working parents. So coming home and making a really 526 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 3: quick dinner for your family of four, five, six, however 527 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 3: many kids you have, it's a lot on a parent 528 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 3: to have to do that. And let's not even get 529 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,400 Speaker 3: started with single family, single parent homes, like that's even 530 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 3: more challenging. And when you can feed a family cheaper 531 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 3: at McDonald's and you can go into the grocery store, 532 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 3: what are you going to choose if you're a broke 533 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 3: single mom or single dad. So it's the system is 534 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 3: broken and not really designed for us to be healthy. 535 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 3: And then you have to think about the rewards to 536 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 3: the medical system. To me, the fact that this miracle 537 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 3: drug that now exists that we've all been dreaming of 538 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 3: is not covered by most insurance. I mean, it's covered 539 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 3: if you've got diabetes, they'll cover it, But if you're 540 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 3: just fat and want to get skinny. 541 00:27:58,680 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 2: It doesn't cover it. 542 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 3: I'm like, that makes me scratch my head because I like, 543 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 3: obesity is the root CAUs to so many other. 544 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: Health diabetes being one of them. 545 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, the disease, all of the things. 546 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 3: Why aren't we try to that It should be the 547 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 3: first thing that insurance companies are covering so that they're 548 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 3: not having to cover all of the other shit that 549 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 3: comes with being overweight. But does the medical industry really 550 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 3: want people to be healthy? Because then you have less 551 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 3: people coming in for shit. So I mean that's the 552 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 3: conspiracy theorist in me. But why the fuck isn't it 553 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 3: covered right? 554 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: Well? I mean I think that's These are the questions 555 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: I think we're all asking as a society as a whole, 556 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: and I think that they're good questions. I think the 557 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: conversation about food and all of the stuff you're mentioning 558 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: changing is also a really good conversation. And like you said, 559 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: this was like a really good job start for you. 560 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: And it's like what doctor Soa told me, where it's like, 561 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: you can't treat a disease with prevention. You have to 562 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:10,479 Speaker 1: treat a disease with treatment, and then incorporate prevention. So 563 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: to me, it's a it's a whole picture kind of thing, 564 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: and it's a whole circle and it's very interesting to 565 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: hear about someone's personal journey with it. So I really 566 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: appreciate you, and none of the listeners appreciate you being 567 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: so open about that. 568 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 3: And one other quick thing I want to add, because 569 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 3: I did, I you know, in full disclosure, I also 570 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 3: hired I've got a trainer named Will who is It's 571 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 3: everything's done through an app and online and text, so 572 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 3: I've never even met him face to face other than 573 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,479 Speaker 3: on zoom. He's in Las Vegas, and that has been 574 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 3: a game changer to me. And I'll admit, like the 575 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 3: hardest part of it all has been getting my food 576 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 3: right because I didn't grow up in a household where 577 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 3: we never had salad for dinner as a side, yeah, 578 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 3: or like a big sat like, I mean, we ate 579 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 3: good and I think my mom thought she was being 580 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 3: as healthy as possible, but there was cheese on our broccoli, 581 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 3: you know, like it was a very American style diet 582 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 3: and I never really learned how to cook. It's been 583 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 3: so it's been the most that has been the most 584 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 3: challenging part and for twenty twenty five is kind of 585 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 3: like I feel like I've gotten I'm committed to working out, 586 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 3: I'm committed to eating better, but the eating and cooking 587 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 3: and that portion is really what I want to focus 588 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 3: on this year, because, like they say, abs are made 589 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 3: in the kitchen, not in the gym. It's so to 590 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 3: you cannot do enough setups to outwork a bad diet. 591 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 3: So and I feel like I've kind of hit a 592 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 3: wall with my weight loss, and so I know that 593 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 3: that is the one piece of the puzzle that I 594 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 3: have to dial in this year, and I'm going to 595 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 3: be exactly where I want to be by the time 596 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 3: I'm fifty. 597 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 2: They go, yeah, so that's my core. 598 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I do take that for granted too. 599 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: I was telling you before the podcast, like I grew 600 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: up both of my parents were athletes, you know, they ran. 601 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: My mom was like a marathon runner, and so they 602 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: ate very well. Like my dad was a football player 603 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,239 Speaker 1: at LSU. Like I just grew up with that, and 604 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: so I don't know any different, but I've realized how 605 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: lucky it is now. And that's what she was telling 606 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: me on the podcast, Like you literally there's only very 607 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: few people that could survive the changes in our culture 608 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: that started in the eighties when I was born, so 609 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: basically my whole life, my parents did such a good 610 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: job of teaching me still how to eat clean, what 611 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: our body needs as fuel. And then I was an 612 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 1: athlete and so I needed that and I was always 613 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: very active. So it's just like all these components that 614 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: I never have thought about that have really helped me 615 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: to stay healthy in this world. But our world is 616 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: not set up to teach that, Like, why are we 617 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: not teaching that stuff? It kills me. I don't understand. 618 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I look back at my childhood and like 619 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 3: sweets and shit were a reward, like bad foods were 620 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 3: rewards for me, of course, And really it's such a 621 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 3: healthy way to think about food, like we only need 622 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 3: food to survive. It is a fuel, it's fuel for 623 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 3: our body. And the way that we've sort of turned 624 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 3: it into a reward. And I see my friends with kids, 625 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 3: it's like, just to shut them up, you'll give them 626 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 3: a bag of EM and M's. 627 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: And it really makes your life worse later though, because 628 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: when kids sugar bars, they're terrible. 629 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 3: Well, and it also it creates an addiction, right, you know, 630 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 3: and it's a condition. It's really a conditioning too. So 631 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 3: it's like then when you're an adult and you're drunk 632 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 3: and you're like, I feel bad, I want McDonald's. Like 633 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 3: you reward yourself with those bad things, if you've been 634 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 3: conditioned to do it, whereas you are conditioned to eat 635 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 3: well because your family conditioned you to do that. 636 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 2: So you don't know any differently. 637 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: Well, like when I eat bad, I just feel it 638 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: so bad. Like it's not that I don't ever and 639 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: there are times where you know, I'm just kind of 640 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: on a like yeah, I need like a fry. I 641 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: love a French fry. But like or you know, holiday seasons, 642 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: like we're talking about, you're at parties, you're at dinners 643 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: or whatever, and it is harder to eat whatever. But 644 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: I've been doing it for so long that I'll find 645 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: stuff pretty much everywhere that I can eat at this point, 646 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: Like everyone's always like, how do you do gluten free? 647 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: Dairy free? Actually it's really easy now, Like there's so 648 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: many options, and because I know what real food is, 649 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: Like I've done a bunch of like whole thirty resets 650 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: and like different diets not to lose weight, but because 651 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: I actually care about what's happening on the inside because 652 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: I feel it like I feel it so drastically because 653 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: of how I grew up. I think so right. Anyway, Well, 654 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: I know you got to go. You got to go 655 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: to this festival and live it up. Hopefully you can 656 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: find some clean food. Actually, Mexico has great food. 657 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 3: They Mexican food is can be very very clean in 658 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 3: health healthy, Yeah, because there's a lot of whole ingredients. 659 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: A lot of friends, a lot of vegetables. 660 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 3: I had faetas yesterday that were probably the best feet 661 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 3: as I've ever had in my life. And one of 662 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 3: the things that I noted to the people I was 663 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 3: with was they didn't come out sizzling because the sizzling 664 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 3: isn't necessary for heat. That's flash that the American Mexican 665 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 3: restaurants have added if they square oil on the food 666 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 3: that's on a hot plate and its sizzles. 667 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:25,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 668 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 3: Mine came out on a regular plate and was so 669 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 3: clean and healthy, and it was after round of a 670 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 3: big mound and it was great. 671 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 2: It was amazing. 672 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: One of the things I always say to people as 673 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: a way to know if you're eating clean or not, 674 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: is you shouldn't feel tired after you eat. And I 675 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: think in America we're so accustomed to we eat a 676 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: meal and then you're tired, you have that lull. Well, 677 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: that means there's a bunch of junk in your food. 678 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 1: That's the biggest that's the quickest way to know. Is 679 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 1: because food is fuel, like you said, and so what 680 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: you're supposed to feel after you eat. And I think 681 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: in a lot of countries when we go out to 682 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: eat and stuff, because they're not putting so much junk 683 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: in their food, you do feel this way. Like I've 684 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: heard people talk about Italy even like they could go 685 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: eat a whole pizza and go run a marathon after 686 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 1: like they don't feel heavy and tired. So anyway, if 687 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: you're feeling that way after you eat, that's a good 688 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 1: indicator that maybe there's something in your food that's inflaming 689 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: your body inside making you tired. And then inflammation over 690 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: a long periods of time or long term is the 691 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: cause of all disease. So it's like food is I mean, 692 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: that is what's making us so sick in our culture, 693 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: and that's why there's so much cancer, That's why there's 694 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: all this stuff, so I'm glad in some ways that 695 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 1: this is coming around and people at the same time 696 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: that people are starting to pay attention to what's in 697 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: our food. I think it's the perfect timing. So anyway, 698 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: thank you for sharing your story with us.
