The Livy Method Podcast - Maintenance & Mindfulness: Midweek Motivation - March 11, 2026

Episode Date: March 11, 2026

Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!Today, Gina, Odette, and Kim keep it real about those “wonky” weeks when life, time changes, weather shifts, and everyday stress can leave you feeling off. They talk about why progress, especially in maintenance, isn’t about waiting for life to calm down but learning how to show up for yourself anyway. Through honest reflection and a few laughs, the conversation circles back to personal responsibility, mindset, and the power of self-regulating your thoughts when things feel messy. The reminder is simple but powerful: there will always be something going on in life, but your choices still matter, and every day is another opportunity to keep moving forward.You can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ginalivymaintenanceandmindfulnessTo learn more about The Livy Method and our Maintenance & Mindfulness group, visit livymethod.com.

Some of my favorite conversations are taking place here. Wake up, look good, feel good, no matter what life throws out you. You got this. Hi. Hello. Hi, Kim. So I think we have the waking up part down. I think we have the looking good part down.

The feeling good part, I'm not so sure. I'm not sure we're there yet. Yeah, I don't know if I'm a, I'm a, I don't know if I'm even approaching that. Maybe we need to change the intro. Jody, write that down. Change the intro. Yeah. I mean, it's been, it's been, I don't know what it is. I know that I was listening to, well, for those that are only listening and not watching, Kim is here with us today. And we're so thankful to have you here. So thank you, Kim, for joining us. Thanks for having me. You're welcome. Yeah, so just talking about how we're feeling today and feeling,

I mean, wonky is the right word. I know Gina used that this morning when you guys did your tweak over in the weight loss group feeling wonky. And I was like, are we feeling wonky? Are we feeling off? Are we feeling tired? Are we feeling wired? What is it? What's going on?

Yeah, it's definitely, we talked a little bit about the time change and all those amazing, you know, adjustments for those that aren't in that group. We talked about all of the things you can do to get ready for the time change, but you can't do anything about life continuing to happen. And most of us can't just like take a day off from our job because we're just trying to settle into the like daylight savings time and stuff. So it's like or you know from activities and things. So it's yeah, it's been I think I don't know what the weather is like there.

The weather is not great here. We got snow yesterday. I started snowing here yesterday in B.C. And I know you guys are just getting out of that and getting the rain. So the seasonal like little piece of it that's coming in this week. two, like with the season changing and the time, I don't know, I feel like I'm all over the place. I don't know what I'm feeling. Yeah, I'm with you because it's the seasonal change. It's we're feeling spring coming, but it's not quite here yet. The time change is here, but we're maybe still

trying to hold on to it, not being here quite yet. You know, we're talking about revamping your food plan this week, but might be a great time to also revamp your whole day and to revamp your routine and what's going on. I know that we can sometimes, I mean, obviously, I mean, I know I can sometimes be held by the clock. Like it's 12 o'clock. I should be eating my lunch now where now I'm not feeling it. It's, you know, I'm not, I'm hungry at 11 o'clock and then I'm hungry at 1 o'clock. You know, but I'm still trying to stick to that.

Oh, it's my routine. It's my routine. And I started thinking like maybe routine is more about behaviors versus actions. You know, like you always have to eat lunch at 12 o'clock. Is that the routine? Or no, you just have to eat. a nutrient-rich lunch, when is more appropriate for you? Structure of when.

Yeah, actually, now that you mentioned, one thing I did notice since Sunday when we did change the time, we've been going for a walk before dinner. When my husband and I are both done work, we've been doing a before-dinner walk so that we get it in before it gets dark and stuff and rushing to do that. Now that the time change and it's light later, we've been like, oh, well, we can go after dinner.

It'll still be light. It'll still be nice. We have that energy and changing it, changing that routine. up a little bit has changed a lot of things. Like that means bumping making dinner at a different time. We're eating actually earlier because we're not out walking before we make dinner. We're making dinner. Then we're walking.

And so just like little switchups like that that comes seasonally or with the time change can actually make a big difference. And it actually feels really good. Like I'm going into the evening feeling more peaceful and not as like I tried to cram that walk in. So I think maybe that can be the case with a lot of things. I know like we talk about the routine and some people are restricted by their schedules at work and things like that. So you don't always have a choice of when you eat.

But you have a choice of when you enjoy your breakfast before work or when you have your evening meal sometimes or maybe on the weekends. Maybe there's some days where you can. And I think that's where that flexibility comes in. You can't keep the same structure necessarily Monday to Friday that you keep on the weekends. This is going to apply day to day to things too. like not every day is going to look exactly the same. But you can still have the same, like practice the same habits and the same routines. It just doesn't need to be in the same strict timeline that you always do it. Yeah, just like Karen said here, lunch was 1.30 yesterday. It's usually at noon.

You know, it's being open to that flexibility. That's still your routine. You know, we talk so much about routines and habits, but it's being flexible within those routines and habits. As long as you're following through on the actions that are important, sometimes the time can change. You're still checking with yourself, you're still having your meals and snacks, but maybe we're just being a bit more flexible with the routine in terms of like not thinking it has to be driven by the clock. It's still driven by what your body needs. I think, you know, continuing to check in, using those four steps of mindful eating, having that awareness, being, you know, being honest with yourself like, yeah, I'm checking in my normal snack time. I'm not hungry. Is it because of the clock? Is it because

I'm more satisfied from having extra protein at lunch? You know, what could it be? So I think just really leaning into that part of it as well. Yeah, and I know that's one thing that actually we didn't bring up today in the weight loss group that I was thinking of is there's people that are, you know, have an extended afternoon that are saying, I have six hours between when I have my lunch and when I can have my dinner. Can I still have two snacks during that time? And really with the three to three and a half hours between meals and snacks, six hours, you can fully have your lunch, your dinner six hours apart and only have one snack. but it is a matter of changing that routine. That means you're not eating that snack. Maybe when you were trying to fit two afternoon snacks in,

you're trying to like, oh, have lunch. I need to have one an hour and a half later because then I need to have my second one before I can have dinner. And if you're doing that, if you actually are thinking about do I need the snack, it's a different scenario than thinking like I have to cram these snacks in. So I think that, you know, that's the way you've got to be a little bit flexible and these tweaks that we introduce in the programs, definitely, have you really thinking about your routine and having to be a little bit flexible about how you do things. Yeah. And this is like we say all the

time, this is a lead up to life beyond the program. This is a, this is a lead up to life beyond following the basic food plan or any food plan. It's really about making those decisions, being able to analyze, be flexible, pivot when needed. This is all with these tweaks. And all the, you know, conversations really what that's all about. It's really setting you up for for later on. So yes, flexibility is is sustainable. These rigid structured systems, you know, that we have in place, they're not sustainable long term, not in any, not in any weight loss or diet program. So we want to teach you that the tools and the skills to be able to, you know, just live your life beyond this beyond a program. Yeah, I think the rigid structures, things like that, that's where things like

program fatigue or like fatigue for putting an effort and can come in, is where you're trying to force yourself into something versus that natural, like, draw to do something. And that's the big piece that you're learning in the maintenance program is the sustainability of everything is you really implementing and hardwiring these healthy habits and being in tune with your body and listening to your body's cues into your system so that it comes naturally and it's not work. And then you don't get tired of taking care of yourself because it's a natural, like, pull to. do that versus you trying to fit it into a structure and making sure you're ticking those boxes. Exactly. So I did want to talk about the tweak this week, this focusing on the protein and fat, you know, minimizing those heavier carbs for this week only. And we're really noticing that our members, even if they've done this a few times, they're feeling that their body is giving them

signals. They are noticing this change. You know, we're having members say, You know, I'm feeling full. You know, I'm walking away, feeling more full than I normally would be. So we just wanted to kind of break down the idea of full versus bloated. You know, like sometimes you can feel bloated like your digestion is, letting you know that it's noticing a change. It's not about this full feeling where you're overeating. You're eating more food.

You're eating more of the components because you're trying to fit everything in. So I think bloating is just your body. adjusting. And you know, that does feel a little bit different than feeling that actual tummy full when that, you know, your tummy feels like it's stuffed and expanded. And that's really from too much food. So I want to just understand where this is coming from is it, you know, are we trying to have too much of, are we trying to have more food because we're trying to fit all the components in? Or are we just maybe not leaning into those four steps of mindful eating quite as much? What do you think is going on here? I think that's where the fullness come. I think,

well, I think there's an adjustment. When you bump up the protein and fat for this tweak in your meals and snacks, I think most people's automatic reaction is to just add it. So they have this habit. They put together their snack breakfast, their lunch, their dinner, whatever. And I'm bumping up the protein and fat. I'm making it the star. I'm going to add this. And I think, looking at it, you know now that you're at the point you are in your journey where you've lost your weight, you're here, you're maintaining, you have got a sense in the process of how different foods make you feel, how fats keep you satiated, how protein hits you, especially from if you last week separated your protein from your carbs, you know that that had you feeling satisfied

a little bit longer. So when you're taking that knowledge, when you're putting your meals together, the important piece of it is that is not going to look the same. It's not going to be like, Gina, use the example this morning of an apple. Like if you have an apple for your fruit snack and you're adding nut butter, if you were eating a whole apple to be satisfied last week, if you're adding the nut butter, you no longer need the whole apple anymore. You might need half. You might need three quarters.

You might only need a quarter of it depending on the apple or the day and how you're feeling. So when you're looking at your lunch, when you're making protein the star, you're not taking your normal lunch where you had like a big salad full of veggies or whatever you were eating and then adding protein to it to make the star, you're shifting it. And the protein is going to keep you satisfied longer and it's going to have you feeling different. So you really want to look at that and think like, how is that protein going to make me feel? And I think that's maybe the mindfulness questions to the next level is looking at each individual

part of your plate and thinking like, is that enough of this? how is that going to make me feel? Is that the star of this meal? And kind of taking into it a little bit more that way. Because I do think you can tend to overeat all of the components if you're not being mindful for sure. And just, I mean, come on. Everybody loves adding peanut butter and cheese and stuff.

So some of us might throw a couple extra slices of cheese on those plates. You can have too much of a good thing. You don't need to ask if you're having too much. You already know if you are having too much of the good thing. And I think that's such an important point. Like it's a food plan revamp. It's not a food plan addition. You know, we're not just adding on top of what we already had.

We're, you know, leaning into those four steps. We're asking those questions and we're adjusting as we go. So it's not just about adding more. It's not just about doing something different. It's really about staying mindful, staying aware and pivoting and making those adjustments. So when you are, like you said, the apple and nut butter example, it's true. When you think of it, like if you think you're going to eat the whole apple and then just add something to it, you're right. That is just adding.

That's not adjusting. That's not leaning in. So it's not just ticking the box. Like, oh, I added the protein and fat. You want to make sure that you are, you know, having that, having those portions stayed the way that they were. Yeah. Are you guys talking about nothing? You?

Hi. And welcome to the Gina show now. Hello. Hi. I had an appointment. Sorry, guys, I was late. I fully planned on being here on time, but I'm not. So it seems like this is the week I'm having.

How are you guys doing? What are we talking about? Good. Well, we just finished talking about feeling wonky because we are all feeling a little bit like that. Are we coming? Are we coming? Are we going? You know, we're trying to make these big adjustments.

And then, you know, talking the food plan, we're ramping the food plan. But we're also talking about, like, revamping our whole day. Like, that might be where we are right now. revamping our day, trying to, we talked about, you know, routines don't have to be certain actions at certain times. They just have to be the things that you do each day. So your routine is not having lunch at 12 o'clock. Your routine is having a nutrient rich lunch. So it's more about looking at your routines as behaviors versus as a strict structure and having that flexibility. Oh, I love that. I love that, especially with a time change, right? Like, why don't, why am I

trying to stay up later when I could just actually go to bed. Why am I staying up to 10 when I could actually just go to bed at 9? Yeah. Right. Or why don't I change when I'm getting up and actually get up? Why don't I change the time that I'm eating dinner? I know easier said than done. People work and stuff like that. And that's the part that gets a little messed up. But yeah, like it's an opportunity like what how can I create a life that works for me. Yeah. And I got to say though in speaking to that, Gina, you took on something this week with you doing the workouts. And the fact that you've been able to get up and do that with the time change is, I think you should get a medal or something just for that. You don't even need to do a race.

You're like, you know what? Hey, there's a time change. I'm going to double down and I'm going to get up a workout every morning. It's been messy. And that's, I think we don't need another workout. We need to be like, how do we get over that hump? How do we keep showing up? To the point where now I'm, like, I'm excited to go to bed because I want to get up and do my workout. Now, at the expense of putting my makeup on and getting ready for the lives and whatever. And that's why I'm just showing up. And I think we don't need another, just like people don't need another diet. They don't need another workout. They don't need another recipe. We need to like, how do we make this part of who we are? How do we cross that barrier? How does it? That's the part. I mean, obviously,

we have the living method, the weight loss program, the maintenance program. Recipes make our lives easier, workouts by, you know, professionals, like all of that's great. But that's not our problem. think by the time you get to be our age, it's it's not that we don't know what to do. That's not the, it's the how do we keep a going part. And it's messy and it's fucking ugly. You know, like it's just. Yeah. And I think this is where that whole concept of flexibility being sustainable really comes into play.

You know, like it's not, you can't follow those rigid rules all of time. You can't follow that rigid structure. Yes, there's systems and there's principles in play and guidelines for you to follow. But what you want to just understand is later on, you're just going to be living your life. You want to be able to have flexibility with your routines, with your actions, with what you need to get done and just do it and do what you can from day to day. And recognize that each day is different. And the other thing I was just started to think about this, you know, this feeling of wonky and where we are and what's going on. And, you know, this is the week I talk about it.

I feel like it comes up every March. This is the week where the pandemic hit. six years ago now. And we talk about your body holding, learning from experience and you're, and holding on to past beliefs and past traumas. And there's something about that also resurfacing this time of year. There's big change with the season. There's excitement coming into spring break. There's excitement that spring is just around the corner. But there's also this reminder in the back of our minds that this big thing happened a few years ago and it really knocked us off. You know, whether we were feeling great at the time and just in, you know, thought we had everything going for us,

or maybe we felt like we were messy. This just added another level to it. And I think that doesn't get forgotten. I think that that stays with you. And I think this week, this March, this, this change of season, this change of food plan, I think this just starts to bubble to the surface a little bit more too. Well, and I think just thinking about that and thinking what you were saying about routines and stuff like that, I think that's what it is, is any adaptability that we need to work on with ourselves if this is a problem. Because the problem is you don't know. We don't know what the next thing that's going to come along and knock us off of our foundation, what that's going to be. And if you rely and lean so heavily on that structure that you've set for yourself

and that routine, then what happens if that's pulled out from underneath you? And, And if you rely on the structure and the routine too much, it's going to, it's going to knock you off your feet when that gets pulled out from you. So being able to be flexible, being able to adapt is really part of being able to kind of build this into the tapestry of who you are and what your day and your routine is. Yeah. Kim just, Kim just said it. I was sick last week and being able to pivot and give my body what it needed at that time was so important. Now that I'm feeling better, I'm getting back into my routine as a healthy person. this flexibility is so important because life happens and we have to go with the flow versus rigid rules. And the tweaks are there to, and I keep saying dig deeper and level up more,

it's to shake things up. And we're still rewiring how your body has learned to function and your brain has learned to function. And even if you've been at this for two years, three years, four years, that is nothing compared of the years lived before that doing things in a completely different way, that you're really trying to, and to your point, oh, dad, there's so much that's pulling us back. There's so much in our history to overcome or to work on or work through to become truly that healthy person, you know. I think about the pandemic. You're right. It was March, and then I picked the kids up for their last day of school before the March break, go to the grocery store was a feeling I will never forget. It was eerie as fuck. Like,

it was so weird. And it was crazy. And I want to remind people during the pandemic, all of a sudden we had all the time in the world, eat better, to move our bodies, to organize our homes, to work on ourselves. And we, y'all, we did none of that. I mean, it was amazing because people who did the living method and we worked through that ended up losing weight during the pandemic instead of gaining weight. And then when everyone went back into the world, everyone's like, how the fuck did you lose weight? But that was a lot of work. And we talked a lot about capacity. So even though you had all the time in the world, it didn't mean, you know, that's just, you have to be intentional about what you're doing.

And these tweaks make you be intentional whether you like it or not. I just saw this comment here about someone talking about Grace. She's getting lots of protein during the day but feeling hungry in the evening. So you can feel hungry in the evening, even though you've had enough throughout the day. Your body has no natural inclination to be hungry in the evening. So what is that? Bored, triggered, coping, habit. it didn't drink enough water.

Like, what is that, right? If you were in the weight loss program, weight about to drop, detox, that type of thing. So just because you're hungry in the evening doesn't mean that you didn't necessarily eat enough during the day. It could be for other reasons that you are hungry. Like this underlying something's bugging you and you don't know what it is or you're feeling just kind of off this week and you're tired, tired can lead to being hungry. So it could be pretty things. Well, and I think even just that message from your body that checking in with you, you know, we've always kind of said even in the weight loss program. Sometimes your hunger is just your body saying like, hey, you haven't eaten in a while.

If you're going to be active, you might need to have something. Yeah. Now, I'm good. I'm actually going to sleep. I'm not going to be active. My energy is going to be filled when I'm sleeping and resting. So, you know, that's another piece of it that I think we forget a lot when we move on. We think there, you know, that message is going to be quiet, but it's still going.

Yeah. Grace is like my weight is dropping. Yeah. So then that's the basic, right? Hungry in the evening is a sign that your weight is dropping. And if, you know, people are wondering why are we talking about that and the maintenance form? Some people were here maintain their weight and they're deciding to go for more.

Some people, their weight went back up for whatever reason and, and, yeah, like, you couldn't maybe you're not putting two and two together. Maybe your kids started, I don't want kids sport they play this time of year. But maybe they're, they're playing hockey at 7 o'clock at night, 9 o'clock at night. So now you're at the hockey rank. And rather than getting ready for bed. So then you're like, oh, I'm hungry. What's that about, right?

Like just really understanding like, okay, what is this about? I think this is a great opportunity too to think about this comment just made me start thinking about Gray saying she feels like she's getting enough protein during the day. You know, what about those other components too? You want to make sure that those aren't getting forgotten. We talk about this being, you know, we're focusing on, yeah, fiber, making sure you're hydrated, like you said. It's not just a protein focused week. We so want to remember those other components. And maybe this is a great week, too, to play around with those protein and fat sources. You know, if you typically have the same ones over and over and over again, maybe this is a great week to try and see how different proteins affect you.

You know, if you're more of a fish person, maybe you're going to try chicken, or maybe if you're more of a chicken person, you're going to try more of those legumes and beans and that sort of thing, like really changing up those protein sources to see if that impacts your satiety and how you're feeling later in the day too. Or maybe you're missing the heavy carbs that you were eating, right? Your body notices when you don't add those in, still getting lots of carbs, vegetables, It's naturally occurring sugars. But if you've been, you know, getting in more, more oatmeal lately, adding the bread back in

those types of things, your body will notice when you take those out. Yeah. What else you want to talk about? I didn't print out my notes because I didn't have time. So I just flew in here. That's okay. I wanted to, yeah, so I want to talk about, you know, how we're all feeling where that's coming from because our members are feeling it too.

We were talking about feeling full versus feeling bloated. We were seeing that comment that, you know, it's not about just, it's not about. eating more of the components because you're trying to get them all in. It's really, though, being able to pivot and align and make adjustments as we go. And just understanding that feeling of full and the feeling of bloated, they're not the same thing. So it might take you a bit to understand the difference between the feelings. But this week where we're adding, you know, putting a focus on more fat and protein, your digestion can, you know, let you know that it's feeling it. Even though your digestion probably is working better than it ever has, it still notices change. So,

you might be walking away from your meals or feeling a little bit like, okay, I'm a little gassier now. Well, that's not full. Or, yeah, I'm feeling a bit more bloated. Well, that's not full. You know, there's that difference of understanding. But if you're feeling full, genuinely full, it's time to, you know, really lean into those four steps of mindful eating. And having a look at those components, are you just adding more to get it in or are you adjusting as you go through the day? No one should be describing anything they're eating as full. You're not trying to fill yourself. That's not it. You should walk away, not. feeling like you've eaten anything. That's, you shouldn't feel like you need a nap. You're overly

full. There's that big sensation. Really just truly enough that you are satisfied. Okay, I had enough. If anything, it's better to lean under that than it is to go over that. And you're right. That's Kim and I just talked about this in the tweak this week this morning, the weight loss program, people wanting to eat more at lunch because of their lack of that second afternoon snack. And that's not what that's about. That's not what that's about. And also the four mindful eating questions at this point, you're like, fuck off already. I'm exhausted of asking those. I don't want to do it anymore. But if you, if you aren't asking those four questions and you're feeling full, yeah, you still need to do that because you're not paying attention to your body's cues. Exact moment when you know that you've had

enough. Once you get it, you can't lose it. You have to practice like being intentional about understanding that point, right? Yeah. One other thing I wanted to say is we're talking a lot about self-regulation this week because that's really the focus and, you know, your thoughts and your mindset. And of course, it's, you know, it's being able to, to, it's not about those one-offs that are going to, you know, be the end all of you. It's really about being able to bounce back. And we had a comment from Karen. And it says, I think I fall into the not let that one night of indulgence turn into days or weeks of choices that do not align with your goals. This is a bit of an eye opener to say it. So I think this is when we're talking about self-regulation. It's like, you know,

you're going out, you're having a good time, and then the next day you wake up. And, you know, we talk about berating yourself. But it's like, oh, I had this day, you know, I've let it all go. It's a lost cause. You know, what's the point of going forward again? And this is where the self-regulating, where the thoughts are like, no, I had that. I did that thing. And I'm able to still go on. I'm able to still realign myself. So I think that just understanding that the choices that you make, you know, one time, two times are not what's going to keep you from reaching your goals or stay at this life, stay, you know, living this lifestyle you've created. It's really about regulating those thoughts so that you are talking yourself the other way, telling yourself that you can do this. Tomorrow is another day.

I can realign tomorrow. I can get back at it tomorrow. I understand this lapse. I understand this blip in the road and I can just move move forward from it. Yeah, you said understand it. I'm thinking like, well, if I'm having, if I ate my face off one day or whatever happened and I'm having a hard time getting back on track or getting over that, chances are your indulgence in the first place didn't have anything to do with the food because then you'd be able to just move on and be like, okay, whatever. So I ate that big fucking deal, time to move on today. So if you're having a hard time letting that go or thinking that you haven't ruined everything, there's probably an underlying layer there that there's a reason why you're keeping this going and having a hard time. It's never

just that you don't have the wheelpower to get back at it. It's probably like there was probably back it up, rewind what was the reason for that behavior in the first place? And we all look to, oh, I ate this thing. I can't get back on track and totally forget why we ate the thing or why we did that. And so I think that's where we are at now. That's where you got to be like, this is not about the popcorn, the pizza, whatever I had. Sure, there might have been a snowball effect. Well, I had this. I might as well have this and this and this and this. But the fact that you're still struggling days later to get back at it is because it was never about the actual food part of it. There's something else going. You know, like I have a lot going on right now.

Clearly. I'm not even trying to hide it and just going with a day by day. But I'm also smart enough to know, like, I've got a couple things in events. coming up that are built around alcohol. And it would be so easy for me to be like, fuck it. I'm just going to drink and have fun, drinking this, drinking that, drinking this, drinking this, whatever. I totally could. And if I did it wouldn't, but I know it's going to leave me to feeling like more like

shitballs next week. And I'm already having a hard enough time. So I actually have to think about it strategically now and be like, okay, what my plan, knowing where I'm functioning from? or I'm just going to go like, you know, next week's going to be really hard for me to recover. Again, wouldn't blame myself. If I had the best time, fuck it, just went with it. But I already know that is not what I want.

That's not what I want. So knowing where I am and how I'm feeling, I actually need to be really intentional about what's coming up over the course of the next four or five days and what my plan is. Is it really going to be worth it for me to drink, indulge, and then have to try to play catch up major next week? and then I'm looking at the following week and I'm like now. Well, and I mean, it never stops, right? There's always something.

I was looking at my calendar for the same way and I'm like, I've got these events this week. I've got these events this week. I've got it. So at some point we have to figure out like when do I want to stop that cycle of two steps forward, one step back, two steps forward with how I'm feeling. I know how good I feel when I actually take care of myself. And so keeping that in the forefront of my mind when I'm making the decision is so important.

Yeah. I just, I can hear the music. So I want to have the final word. But when I start working with new clients, and they really want this so badly, and yet there's always something coming up in their life. And I'm just like, oh, like, I'm trying to be patient with you. But at some point, you have to make a choice here.

There's always something. 2026 was going to be my best year yet. And look how it started. There's still time ahead. This is the shittiest fucking year. This is like, like, awful year for you already. How do you just not give up? up on the whole year and be like, fuck you, bitch, I'm out. Yeah. Yeah. There's been a few moments.

But like I said, self-regulating my thoughts. There you go. That's how I'm doing it. Good point, O'Dack. Good point. What do you want to leave us with the, I mean, that's a good last word. Do we just end on that? Yeah, we can just end on that. There's still lots going on in the group this week. We are talking protein shakes. You know, we have a love-hate relationship with those. But we're also talking to sleep day because it's coming and the importance of sleep and magic sleep. So, I'm encouraging everybody to get restful, sleep-filled nights, and we're going to give you lots of tips and revisiting all the amazing conversations we had.

That's the only thing keeping me going is I went to bed early last night. I'm a rock star for that. I love that for you. Yeah. I love you, ladies. Thank you. This was fun.

Thanks, everyone. Okay, we'll see you soon. Okay. Bye. Bye. Thanks, man. Bye. Thanks, kids.
