Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm Gina Livy and welcome to the Livy Method podcast. This is where you'll have access to all of the live streams for my 91 day weight loss program. With a combination of daily lives, guest expert interviews, and member stories, there is something new almost every day. Miss the morning live? Want to re-listen to one of our amazing guest experts? Well, this is the place. This podcast is hosted on ACAST, but it's available on all podcast platforms, including the one you're listening to right now, Spotify, Apple, and Amazon Music. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Hello. Pick it till you make it. Fake it till you make it. How are you doing? Let me just get kind of dressed here. Get my stuff on. There we go. That'll do.
Starting point is 00:00:53 So how are we feeling? How are we doing? Okay, this week, first of all, I love this week. It's week nine. It is one of my favorite weeks and tweaks. It just gives you so much flexibility. You're not going to have a food plan for the rest of your life.
Starting point is 00:01:08 And if you're new to the program, you'll see that in the last couple weeks of the program. We have this thing called personalized the plan where you're really learning to be in tune with when to eat what to eat and how much to eat. You're not doing your own thing. You're still very much following the program. There's my shirt. I'll just put it out later. You're still following the program.
Starting point is 00:01:25 But this is, again, all about learning how to lose weight in a way you're going to be able to maintain and sustain. I know I mentioned this morning on the check-in, but I listened to the. this great conversation. It was like Tim Spector, and I don't know if you listen to him, but he's, like, nutrition-wise, he's, you know, he's pretty sound and, you know, kind of like on board with kind of what I do here. And he was talking about when it was like really about the brain and what you need to do, have a healthy brain that's really important to me because kind of Alzheimer's a dementia kind of thing, runs my family. And I'm just really mindful, I want to live
Starting point is 00:01:58 a really long life, but I want to live my life and be fully fun. all that. Exercise, of course, is a big part of that. Food is a big part of that, making sure you're getting the nutrition that your body needs. But anyway, it was taught, I had two conversations. Well, I didn't really have a conversation with him. I listened to it on a podcast on the way home from hanging in with friends. And we were talking about sort of weight loss medications and that how do you retrain your brain, right? And I hear this so much with people taking them. The minute they lower the dose or the minute they get off, the food noise. comes back, everything comes back. And this is relevant. Whether you are taking a GLP1 or not taking
Starting point is 00:02:37 a GLP1, that's what's like, that's the thing. This is how you lose weight in a healthy, sustainable way. Physically, so your body doesn't feel inclined to store that weight back. And then also mentally, and this is that, that conditioned hunger that Dr. Jason Fung, I think he's actually coming back in the next couple weeks. And we're going to do them on an evening. So our evening, the people who watch on the evening, you guys can catch that lot, that conditioned hunger. So it's really about, and you absolutely can rewire your brain. And this is about everything in your life, right? Like, this is about rewiring your relationship and how you think and how you feel.
Starting point is 00:03:15 It's all tied into that, which of course affect your actions. And it's all about like you get on the scale and just unless you've lost 20 pounds in a night, you feel horrible, it ruins your whole day. Like whatever does. Somebody says something to you. It triggers you. you scrolling through social media, thoughts pop up. And this is how we're training our brain now. Right? Like I miss my workout this morning and full transparency. I was so excited about it last night
Starting point is 00:03:39 before I went to bed and I'm feeling pretty great. My body's a little sore from skiing yesterday. And then I got on social media and was scrolling like blew off like 20, 30 minutes. I'm like, what am I fucking doing on here? Anyway, I digress. You have to be intentional about changing your brain. that's like capture cancel correct actually maybe we should ask dr beverly david to double down on that she's coming tomorrow we're not doing any contrive conversational topics anymore we're going to let you guys post what you want to find out from her on the post if you haven't done that yet i'm just going to pick a bunch of topics to see where we're at and what we want to talk about you have to be intentional about making change you have to be intentional about rewiring your brain it's not something you can do by
Starting point is 00:04:21 listening to a podcast or watching something you actually have to go through those steps and that's what the four steps of mindful eating questions are doing. Am I even hungry right now? Rather than I'm just eating because it feels like it's time or I'm eating because it's lunch, eating because it's dinner, whatever that meat, am I actually, and not in my brain, in my belly, am I actually hungry right now? Like, am I actually hungry? And not does this food look good or I need a break? I'm actually hungry. And then obviously the following sets of questions. And you can make them more relevant and resonant to you, really being into that, checking back 10, 15 minutes later, right? How do I feel?
Starting point is 00:04:59 Like, you know, did I eat enough, that type of thing. So that's what those four sets of my bleeding questions, really being self-aware, capturing your thoughts, cancel them, correcting is really doing the work, whether you are taking weight loss medications or not to lose weight in a way you're actually going to be able to maintain and sustain, right? Yeah, anyway, I thought that was really. So I'm super jazzed about today, today, and starting this week. more flexibility. Don't overthink it. You probably will notice the two afternoon snacks going down to
Starting point is 00:05:28 one. You might be a little hungry. That's okay. Your body's, it's not that you're actually hungry because you're still eating all this good nutrient foods. Your body's just noticing, hey, bitch, where's my snack? And you're going to be like, oh, you don't need it. I'm eating all this. I'm bumping up my proteins and fats. And I'm, you know, like I'm switching around, adding protein fat to my morning snacks. So that's going to give me more oomph. Right. And so again, physically kind of like shaking your body up and then also mentally too. Yes, being intentional is the key to living our best lives. It is. We are meant to change and grow and evolve. Ever see that thing where it's like the caterpillar says to the butterfly like you've changed? And the butterflies, yeah, we're supposed to.
Starting point is 00:06:08 We're supposed to. I think the universe changes us. God, universe, whatever you want to call it, teach his own. It challenges you in life, knows where you want to go and gives you the challenges in life that this is why, you know, you don't get more than you can handle, um, to learn and grow and evolve. And this is where you actively learn and are intentional. Do you see my notes? This is my brain. This is how I make notes during a meeting. That's the worst. Um, you know, things have, people come into your life. So you can learn and grow and evolve, right? And sometimes something, things happen that just don't make any sense. I'm not trying to be like, you know, um, toxic positivity or not, but you are meant.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Is it true that how you eat when you're sick kind of stays with you afterwards, meaning being more in tune with your body's needs? Yes. Yes. So when you're sick, it's like a massive detox, right? Like that's what your body, like your body, when you got a cold flu virus, whatever that is, or like whatever, your body's trying to heal you. It's a great opportunity for detoxing.
Starting point is 00:07:13 It's trying to get out whatever. All your toxins are also stored in your fat, not to sound too like woohoo. but it's true. That's where your body stores its toxins are in your fat. And that's why when you do like a deprivation diet, right, those toxins can get into your gallbladder and gunk it up. And that's why you need to have your gallbladder removed if you lose weight too quickly. Obviously, this is why we're after healthy fat loss, not just weight loss here. But that is why even losing weight in a healthy way, sometimes people feel the detox, for lack of a better scientific term, detox symptoms, where you can kind of feel just kind of bleh, right? And so when you're sick, that's why you're sick, that's
Starting point is 00:07:49 why when you're sick, it can be used to your advantage. Now, I would sound like a major a-hole if I was like, oh, when you're sick, take advantage, get to lose weight like that. I would sound awful, except I know how healthy you are leading up to being sick and how healthy you are being after you are sick and that you're not just trying to eat less, right, and starve yourself to lose weight. And so when you are sick, you have your body's attention. And this is where you will either be really hungry, craving carbs and sugar or not hungry at all. Really hungry craving carbs and sugar is not hungry. It's just massively dehydrated and your body needs what to help detox water, right? So your body's like, I need, people like, I need sugar I need. Your body doesn't want sugar while you are sick,
Starting point is 00:08:32 but it can sure feel like it wants it really badly. So up your water. That's why I tell you drink lots of water when you're sick. Or you won't be hungry at all. And this is where people get concerned that, well, if I, if I don't eat, it's going to cause my body to feel I need to store fat. So your body stores fat for emergency perpages like this where you are sick where it's like please don't eat because digestion takes a lot of energy. I want to focus on detoxing, getting this virus out of your system, healing and whatnot because even when you go into a fast, there's like a topogy, right? So when you go do like a longer fast, this is where your cells start to kind of like do like a cleaning thing that they do. And that's where I think fasting can be really beneficial. But fasting as trying to lose weight
Starting point is 00:09:17 is a diet is very problematic. So there's something about autophagy and that's what happens. So it can actually be very beneficial for you. And so your body will tell you not to be hungry at all. This is why I say if you're like if you're not if you're sick following the program like just listen and honor your body. And if you do eat, keep it really light like soups and whatnot. So you can really minimize your body having to work so hard on digestion. And so after that when you are sick, what happens? And this is sort of where if you've ever gotten sick and you couldn't eat for like a while, when you come back to feeling better, even though you have an appetite, it's like, oh, I can't eat very much. It's like you're, it's like you, you feel more full. That's your body's had an opportunity to reset in a sense, where you've given
Starting point is 00:10:03 it time for it to reset. And then this is where, and then, and they've studied this with a, with a ketogenic diet too. Like people could go on keto, whatnot put their body in ketosis. It kind of helps kind of reset things. But then obviously keto long term is not sustainable and problematic as well. But it gives you, it gives you, it gives that break from eating gives your body time to kind of reset the amount of food it's used to consuming. And then this is sort of probably where you're eating sick and the food noise, like when you're sick and you don't want to eat, the food noise calms down.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Like think about all the food noise that you have except when you're sick, right? When you're that kind of sick and you're just, you don't want to. to eat, that is your body focused on other things. So yeah, so it's kind of that's part of it. In a like, that's like the not very scientific way. I'm saying that. I've listened to every live this program, but I can't join in person due to my work schedule except today. I'm here for a bit. Hi, Ingrid. How are you? I'm on my first program doing well. Well, first of all, Hello, welcome. But feel tired of the intentionally tired of planning.
Starting point is 00:11:15 I would love to hear what you and Dr. Bev have to say to pump me up again. Ooh. Okay. So there is such a thing as we just get tired of it. I talked about this on the check-in this morning, right? We call it program fatigue. But you're not really tired of like, like think about everything you're doing on the program, right? Like you're being mindful and aware of how you feel.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Prioritizing yourself in your own life. can be exhausting, right? Meal prep, for example, exhausting, except then when you have food, you're like, fuck, I'm amazing. Like, you love yourself and it makes life so much easier, right? Trying to manage stress, get better sleep, all the things that you're doing, moving your body, all of it is just like, fuck off, like I'm exhausted. All of it, though, beyond weight loss, it's helping you to live a better life day to day. Look better, feel better, all of that, live longer, be healthier, right? So a lot of times, and I will ask Dr. Beverly this. I will do that. It's about reframing where you're at. And this is why your why can change, right? It's like reframing where
Starting point is 00:12:19 you're at and this is where you have to make it what the things that I'm doing more resonating to me. This is why I'm going to be like, you know, thinking about, and I was honest about this last week, what do we need to just pop into the, it's really the popping into the group reminding you that you are doing this. Journaling. Journaling can start to feel like a task, right, rather than something like that you look forward to and love doing. And a lot of times that's just our perspective on on why we are doing it rather than what we are doing. So it can become very much like a chore. And this is where people will be like, okay, well, I just can't. I need a break and I'm going to restart in April. But then there's a lot of time between the end of this program and the start like
Starting point is 00:13:01 six weeks between the end of this program and this start. And sometimes we just want that break. We want that time off. Sometimes you need like time off. And it's okay if you're like, I'm just going to not even think about what I'm eating today. I'm just going to fuck it. I'm going to, you know, I'm going to just give myself some time, however much time. And then just pick up where you left off and keep going forward. Right. That's like the best way to do it. It's just like, okay. But everyday counts. And that's where I would say with this, that counts. That counts. is a learning opportunity. What did I need? Sometimes it's because you're not giving yourself the rest or the time that you need, right? So anyway, let me read this. I've been trying to lose weight for two years and not even a single pound, no matter how much I starve myself. I'm down only seven pounds. That's huge. Seven pounds in nine weeks is really great. But that is huge to me because I was not able to budge the scale before and I feel great. Even this morning went to bed early last night and was up, no problem this morning. Good for you.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Okay. The other issue I have is gaining weight immediately if I go even a bit off program. I have a small serving of pasta, one sandwich, and I am up a pound the next day. That is normal. This is freaking me out. Feel like I'm healthy eating jail or else. I love being here about it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:20 So being new to the program, this takes a while that your brain believes your weight goes up on the scale. You have gained weight. And it's absolutely not true. Your weight will fluctuate and be up. including right before your weight drops. And so this is where you have to kind of understand that part of this is how does my body react and respond to, like, maybe it's gluten. You know, fewer people have a sensitivity than gluten than we think they do.
Starting point is 00:14:50 But for other reasons, like maybe your digestive system could use some strengthening or like probiotic, prebiotic, whatever you got going on in your microbiome. Sandwich always made you feel like crap probably. Now, this is where you could maybe use sourdough bread or like spreaded grain bread. Like this is where it could be the types of breads that you are eating. Could make a difference there as well. Just because you mentioned like pasta and bread, right? And so you didn't actually gain any weight.
Starting point is 00:15:16 When your body, when you consume carbohydrates like breads and pastaas, your body actually requires more water in order to process and digest those. So for that reason alone, they're always did and always will have your. weight showing up on the scale and it's not real weight in. And that is where I think reading the science post and trying to get that part of it where you really understand that. Like working out, for example, all last week, my weight was like up six pounds. And that is because my body was sore. I could feel it the whole time.
Starting point is 00:15:52 My weight finally came down, got on the scale today. My weight is up two pounds. Why? Because my legs are screaming at me from skiing yesterday. I know I did not drink enough water. Like, I just know that's what's going on. So that's the big part of not being able to just lose your weight, but be able to once you're in maintenance,
Starting point is 00:16:12 understand how foods affect you, right? Like I had a woman in maintenance be like, okay, I've been able to maintain my weight for like fairly easily. Yesterday I indulged. I had a hoagie and today I feel like shit and my weight is up. When am I ever going to be able to eat normally? Right? And the reality was, I said to her,
Starting point is 00:16:29 whether you've lost weight or not, lose weight or not lose weight, your body's always going to react to that hoagie the same way. When you were feeling like shitballs where you just like you're just, you say you're feeling really great, for example, right? You get a taste of feeling really great. Your body really lets you know when it doesn't like what you've done. And that doesn't mean you can't still enjoy these things, but your body's like, oh, this bitch is listening to me. Yo, like, what are you doing to us? We were feeling fantastic and now we feel like shitballs again, right? Like that's sort of of where that being more self-aware and in tune, you're going to really notice those things.
Starting point is 00:17:05 And that's a great sign. That's a great time. Okay, so that's like that's, but the freaking out part, capture, cancel, correct it. Got on the scale today. Oh my God. I'm never going to lose my weight. This always happens to me. Okay. Okay, got it. Capture. That's how I'm feeling. Cancel it. Oh, this, okay, this might always happen to you, but this is just normally eating foods, right? You didn't actually gain weight. You know, you're fine. Correct it. Keep going. Keep going. Keep doing what you're doing. You were absolutely going to get there just because you chose to have a sandwich or pasta or whatever that is not going to stop you from reaching your goal. Right. That takes time. That's that change in your brain. You've got to change that connection to the scale to food in your brain. Right. Like you're what you'll realize once you get into maintenance. So you're going for a goal weight. Let's say you reach a goal weight. So you start at your set point, right? That homeostasis, where your body feels and you need to store fat knots. Where is it. happiest because you're carrying excess fat, your body's not happy about that. You lower your weight, okay? You release the fat, you stay at a plateau, your body adjust around your new weight, right? Release,
Starting point is 00:18:09 adjust, release, adjust. You get to a weight where you feel comfortable, and this is where you need to put yourself on a self-imposed plateau. We're going to stick at this weight. This is where you do the maintenance program, or you can personalize the plan and do it on your own, but I highly suggest you do the maintenance program because there's science behind it. Your body adjust, because it takes about two years of just like chaotically having your body adjust to your new weight. So the maintenance program fast tracks all of that. I'm trying to say this without like selling, but honestly,
Starting point is 00:18:36 we get into the maintenance program. It's a different conversation. So now you reach your goal away, and now your goal is to allow your body to adjust to your new weight without challenging it, without going back into old habits, without adding all these foods back in, just let it be.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Let it adjust to your new weight. Your hormones, your metabolism, your blood flow, your everything, body temperature around that. new weight. Now, it's not just this is your new weight. It's a range of weight. It's a range, right? And so there's going to be times on your life where you're going to sit on the lower range. And then there's going to be stressful times, whatever kind of times where you're going to sit on the higher range. And so your weight isn't meant to stay at one, just wait the whole time. It is meant to fluctuate and ebb and flow with life. There have been times in my life where I'm at the low, low end. Maybe everything is moving
Starting point is 00:19:28 and groove. I feel great. I got extra time to work out. My stress levels are low, whatever that is. Not always life is amazing, right? And there's times when my weight has been high also because I was like, you know, newly dating Tony and life was good and eating foods and staying up late and life was amazing, right? Sometimes it's like menopause hit and then, you know, that fucked me up for a while. And then I had to like kind of like, my secrets of menopause wasn't really HRT because I didn't take it, although I would love to have. I just didn't need it by the time I got on it. Mine was saying no to people. It was like really like going for long walks, not exercising. I didn't lift a ton of weights. I went for walks with my mental health, right? And I stopped
Starting point is 00:20:12 drinking because I would go for walks. So that was my thing. So this is what your weight is meant to do. So this is where that mental, that mental part is a big part out. Okay. Um, super appreciate your daily encouragement. Love the guests. I've listened to many of the experts several times. Just keep my head and this is what it is right like it's like creating a place and space to work towards your goals so you keep showing up long enough that you reach them that you know this is what this place is for right whether you're losing weight maintaining your right which is living your life too it's also a great place you're trying to make healthy life still changes so hopefully that helps ingrid uh you're doing you're doing great um sounds like everything's on track that mental part we're definitely
Starting point is 00:20:48 I'll put that and ask dr. Beverly about that tomorrow I had awesome healthy food yesterday but I think a little higher in salt. My scale is at 1.5 immediately tried on a pair of pants and they were looser. Could also be, though, that your weight is about to drop too, right? Don't forget. Don't forget. Don't forget. Sometimes people forget about that as we go into each new week and tweak, just about
Starting point is 00:21:12 the basics of the scale. It is normal for your weight to go up before it comes down. Arthritis may be play a role in swelling. Yes, inflammation, right? This one's where we've got to bring it back to. I know there's that post today on if you're struggling with your weight, right? that's more of that mental part, but there is that inflammation piece. This is why your, your microbiome, like if you're still struggling with that physical part here, definitely go
Starting point is 00:21:37 back and look at those basic supplements, right? The omega-3, vitamin D, magnesium, that's a big one, B-6. If you're energy, you're doing all these things and you're not feeling much happening in your energy, right, the conversations we had go back, check in with your doctor. You're so self-aware and you're doing a lot of things at this point. You should be seeing them translate, if not on the scale, non-scale victories, right? This is where we still have the last four weeks of the program. And then if you're coming back, figure it out, right? Figure it out. What is not what's wrong with me, what is going on with me. Inflammation is a big one. Inflammation very much tied to your gut microbiome. So we think we have arthritis, we have inflammation, we have whatever going on. And yet we
Starting point is 00:22:17 don't think how that's disconnected to what's happening in our microbiome. And then you might not think, oh, well, a probiotic, prebiotic could really make a world of difference there, right? Again, I don't make any money off of selling any supplements or anything, but they can be beneficial. I was just reflecting the journaling last night. It is feeling like a task right now. I bought the paper journal as well. And although I'm keeping my app journal, I've stopped using paper one.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Okay. So this again, right? Could this be like, is this? And I'm just going to not talking directly to you, Linda, I'm generalizing. Is this what you always do? Do you always get to the point where? where you follow something for so long and then you get bored and you quit. You've had enough.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Life doesn't make it easy for you. We just want to break. And so we quit. Think about exercise. It's so easy, right? You're in a good rhythm of exercise. Something happens. It's hard to get back.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Next thing you know, we don't. Then we just let it go. And then you can la la la. Exercise, though, like there's no definitive exercise goal. That's the difference. Same behavior, though. It's not like, oh, I'm going to, maybe if you're going to bench press a certain. amount or you're going to run a marathon. Most of us, though, it's just trying to get to the gym so
Starting point is 00:23:36 we can look better and feel better at the end of the day. If you think about that, there's no real goal there. And a lot of times the problem is the goal is tied into your weight. And so is this where you normally bail. And I say that because there could be a breaking point after so long that is just as just where you're like, you know, like 12 weeks. And this is why I broke like the realities these people's weight loss journey can take years, but we break down these digestible chunks of time to really kind of have a more narrow view. This is where you want to step back and look at the big picture and be like, okay, what's going on here? There is science behind journaling and journaling isn't supposed to be, you know, every day's amazing and I love my say. It's not when it's easy that you need to
Starting point is 00:24:21 journal. It's probably when it's hard that you need to journal. And if you're not, if you're not enjoying journaling like you used to, why? Like, what's the why? Why were you journaling? And maybe it's the why you were journaling that needs to change because you've changed and that's no longer something that resonates with you anymore, right? Like I'm on like put pen to paper, you know, use the app, however you do. It's usually not the act of it. It's just that most people drop off because their motivation drops off. And they start to look at it as a time. task. Like how much time did you spend scrolling on social media yesterday? And maybe you're not a social media user. Again, I'm generalizing. How much time did you spend on social media yesterday?
Starting point is 00:25:08 That could have been spent working out. That could have been spent calling a friend. That could have been spent, you know, journaling, working on something for yourself, right? Like that's a big one. It's interesting. My family is doing this like no processed foods thing. It's my kids have always kind of like my son especially, because we do what we do, have always been pretty in tune with foods. But that doesn't mean that we don't have junk food in the house and we don't enjoy takeout and all to process foods. And we were talking about baking sourdough, which I'm not sure my starter started today. But anyway, that's besides the fact.
Starting point is 00:25:44 And we're like, you know, be nice just to, we had a family dinner last night. And I'm like, we overcomplicate dinner. Let's just keep it really simple and no takeout foods, no processed food. So that's our family challenge for the month. And then my son's like, yeah. And let's not watch TV. And we're all like, put the pit still on. And I just started this and whatever.
Starting point is 00:26:06 And he's like, yeah, come on. Think of all the things that we could do. We could go to the gym. We could go play pickleball. And we could like, whatever. And we're like, I was like, okay, everyone holds up. It's still fucking winter. Let's just, we'll work on that next month.
Starting point is 00:26:20 So that's going to be our plan next month. But it got me thinking like, how much time would I have if I just didn't watch any TV in the evening? Like, what would I do with that time? And the reality is, it's like, There were years I didn't even own a TV. I actually don't really like watching TV. I like spending time with Tony who likes watching TV.
Starting point is 00:26:38 So anyway, I digress. Like, what is motivating you, right? You kind of get to know yourself and be like, what is this about? Why am I, is it overarching? Why am I not feeling? So we know people who consistently use the app are, end up losing more weight and are likely to finish. People who consistently use the app are more likely to finish the program
Starting point is 00:26:59 and they end up losing more weight. Why? Because we can't actually like quantify people using an own journal at home, but that we can. And because science has told us that if we are creating something to be in the forefront of mind every day by writing it out or whatever we are doing, we are more likely to continue that behavior. This is also true. And this is I love Dr. Fun talked about this. People who do things in community also more likely to be successful because they feel like
Starting point is 00:27:28 they're not alone, their support there. There's that like next level of understanding, right? So, but you can have journaled and decide, eh, I did that. I want to do something new. You're allowed to grow and change and evolve and find different ways of motivating yourself. So maybe a lot of time I think we just don't take the time. We just don't take the time. Right. So for example, dinner last night, um, I started this thing, just casually being great. grateful because, you know, for dinner, people would say grace, calling it grace. And we didn't do this before when we ate at our, like, kitchen table, like, you know, whatever that thing is called. You guys, you know what I'm saying. I love it. Bankette, no, hutch, I don't know, any of it,
Starting point is 00:28:20 you know that table that you eat on in your kitchen, and it's not very big. So we now have a new dining room table. And we changed the art room into a dining room table. So now we've been having dinner together and my kids love it. They absolutely love it. And I just have been kind of taking time, not saying let's say grace and hold hands, not really Tony's thing. And yet we just, I started saying, you know, thank you for this. Thank you for making the food. You know, we're grateful that we went skiing today. No one got her. We're grateful that we have wonderful people in our lives. We're, you know, whatever it is. And so yesterday we sat down. We went to go eat. My son's like, whoa, wait. We got to say,
Starting point is 00:28:58 our grace. We had to say our gratitude for food. And we were like, okay, we do. And then we sat down and, you know, which is such a beautiful thing to take time to be grateful. And, you know, we sat, then I think it sets the tone for our whole meal. And maybe maybe you've been doing this to your family for years, right? But it's the intention of let's take a minute, see where we're at, see how we're feeling. And that that's, we don't do that enough in our everyday. lives with everything. When you wake up in the morning, do you sit there and say to yourself, how am I doing today? Am I okay? Like, what are the first thoughts I come to my mind? What do I, what do I first feel in my body when my feet hit the floor? How am I doing? Am I okay? Okay, so there's a
Starting point is 00:29:45 new week. This is weight loss program. How do I feel from the weekend? How do I feel about moving forward in this week? Right? And then just really understanding that. And that's, that's all that is, is where am I at? what do I need to keep moving forward, whether that you're, like, a little lipstick I got on my teeth. Oh, my gosh. What do I need to keep moving? Has it been there the whole time? Probably. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Anyway, who cares? It's, I'm not taking it off. And that's what we need. This is just about slowing down and figuring out where you're at and what you need. This is a great week for that. Think of the things that you did before. Well, I was really taking my supplements before and now I've gotten off that. Let's reestablish that routine.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Right? So we created new habits. So easy to fall back into old. So is this falling back in an old habit? Is this feeling like creating the new routine is just being a bit challenging right now? It could be that routine is still very important to designing the life that you want to live and living the life you want to live. But the old habits feel familiar and safe.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Do I want to go back to familiar and safe? Or do I want to keep moving forward and, you know, doing hard things, stepping out of my comfort zone, shaking things up, right? What is it? I don't know. I don't know, right? This whole weight loss journey can very much feel like a task. Life can feel like a big fucking task.
Starting point is 00:31:07 What was the latest update on the app? Oh, thanks for reminding us, Celine. I don't know. I know the app team is working on a few things. I can go to the app store and see for you. So Dr. Beverly is joining us tomorrow. That's going to be fun. Like I said, I don't even know what we're going to
Starting point is 00:31:26 talk about. So if there's something you want to talk about, there is a new update. Whatever that new one might be. I don't know how to figure that out. But just there's a new one. So go check the app store and get the app update. Who knows what it fixed. We're constantly working on all the things. Dr. Beverly, David's going to be here tomorrow. We're going to have a great week, of course, this week. We don't slow down the final month. We go right to the end. Then we have a two week turnaround till April. We are not putting our subscription service on sale this week. The team's got some things they want to do. I didn't want to rush. them, stress them, whatever. So if you're interested in signing up for subscription, I'll let you know
Starting point is 00:32:01 when that's ready. And if you have any friends, I'll let you know. I know it's, I know it's, we're the worst at selling our program, but just focusing on where we're at right now. But that'll be available. I'll let you know when that's available. I think that's it. That's enough for today. I'm going to be back tonight. If you want to come join me tonight, tomorrow's a new day to join us with Dr. Beverly David. We're going to have a great week. I hope you have a great start to your week today. And even if it's shit, tomorrow is a new day. Thanks, everyone. Have a great day and I'll see you later. Bye. I'm going to brush my teeth. Okay.
