Well, I am just so excited about that. And I have seen you, you know, every single week since you started. And you know what? I'm. What I want to start by asking you is what, like, why was this, why do you think losing your fat and losing weight in this way, why is it different from anything else you've tried? Like, have you tried other things? And why is, why did this work?
I did. I had gotten maybe 10 years ago, kind of about the weight and the waistline measurements and stuff, kind of a similar area and had taken on the task of trying to reduce that. And I kind of did, but it was really. I took it from the exercise approach. I hit it starting with, I figured work in the past. Just get out there and start exercising and the weight will just come off. And. Well, it didn't. It didn't. And I really had to start kind of tracking what I was eating before it started just, I mean, creeping off. It took an exceptionally long time to get the weight and the inches off. And it was really difficult. And if I stop, you know, for a couple of weeks or something like that, it would just start coming right back on. And, you know, I sort of kept up with this for a few years and finally just kind of had to set it aside. And then I slowly just got right back to where I was. And I knew that when I approached it again, I really needed to tackle it from the diet perspective, starting with fixing my. The way I eat first, because I had already seen that, doing the intense, you know, I was doing a really intense kind of a 90 day workout program and it wasn't budging anything. And when I started tracking the calories, it did start helping. So I knew I needed to really approach it from that end first, which is kind of where you came in.
Oh, okay. So amazing. And that's something that is so common, is we think that it's like exercise, exercise is going to get off. But it may have worked at one phase of your life. That's so true. It could have worked. It usually does. But it doesn't work as well in different parts of your life. So it really is about knowing what you eat, knowing how to eat.
