0:31
Welcome to the Clydesdale
0:34
Media Weight Loss Journey.
0:36
That's all I'm doing for an intro today.
0:38
Yeah.
0:39
He is the Clydesdale.
0:41
I am Coach Cheryl.
0:42
And we are here to talk
0:43
about where Scott's at.
0:44
And it's funny because as a
0:45
nutrition coach,
0:46
I don't know if it's just
0:48
as a nutrition coach, as a person,
0:49
I kind of have like, well,
0:52
For one, I never have an off.
0:53
I never have a day where I'm
0:55
not thinking about somebody.
0:57
And it's funny because I was
0:59
messaging Scott over the
1:00
weekend because I needed
1:02
something from him,
1:02
but also because I had a
1:04
feeling that things weren't quite right.
1:07
And I was like, hey,
1:09
you got a few minutes?
1:11
Didn't hear back right away.
1:12
And then the next
1:13
conversation I get is that
1:16
you're not feeling well and
1:17
it's been a rough weekend.
1:18
So fill me in on what
1:19
happened this weekend.
1:23
So as we get into it, you understand,
1:27
I don't have a ton of breath.
1:29
So it's short statements.
1:33
Basically,
1:34
I've been telling you for like a
1:37
month and a half that every
1:39
time I work out,
1:40
I run out of breath really fast.
1:43
And
1:45
It's been very frustrating
1:46
because I feel like my
1:48
sinuses were getting better and, um,
1:51
and I can breathe
1:51
completely through my nose now.
1:53
Like it's really cool.
1:56
Then this weekend just took
1:59
a turn for the worse and it
2:01
got where I couldn't really
2:03
even catch my breath.
2:05
Like felt like full on
2:07
asthma attack or that I
2:09
could just not breathe at all.
2:14
Like really scary.
2:16
so I called my doctor he
2:19
couldn't get me in until
2:20
today and um and that's
2:25
like all of a sudden like
2:27
it went from I could do a
2:29
workout but like holding
2:31
back a little bit to I
2:34
can't even like get up the
2:35
stairs like instantly so so
2:41
I get to the the doctor today
2:44
He,
2:46
and I was still having that gas problem,
2:48
like excessive, excessive gas.
2:51
And so he felt around, laid me down,
2:57
went through my stomach, my chest,
3:00
a lot about a lot of stuff like that.
3:03
And then after a few tests,
3:06
turns out that I have a
3:10
infection in my lungs and
3:13
And it's probably been there
3:14
for a while and just really
3:18
ramped up this weekend.
3:20
Yeah.
3:22
Well, a couple of things.
3:23
You haven't really spoken
3:25
too much about the out of breath stuff.
3:29
Like you haven't really been disclosing.
3:31
So I have on our on this
3:33
episodes and we can listen back.
3:36
I know you've been
3:36
struggling a little bit with breathing,
3:38
but you haven't been like,
3:40
I'm getting so out of breath that like,
3:41
I have to stop.
3:42
Like I haven't, that hasn't.
3:43
So this does seem like it
3:45
got better very quickly.
3:46
However, or got fast really quickly,
3:49
got bad really fast.
3:50
However,
3:52
I do think that there being
3:53
an underlying lung issue
3:55
might be why the last couple of months,
3:58
remember how we've been like, Hey,
3:59
you're like,
4:00
I feel like you're sick a lot.
4:02
I think that you might've
4:03
had something brewing and
4:05
it just wasn't bad enough to actually
4:09
be treated.
4:10
It wasn't,
4:10
it wasn't affecting you that
4:11
much until all of a sudden last weekend.
4:15
And that also likely
4:16
might've been what was
4:17
upsetting your gut.
4:18
It might've all been kind of
4:19
the same thing.
4:20
It might not have been your food at all.
4:22
Could have been just that stuff kind of,
4:23
you know, sitting there, you know,
4:25
so that might've been more
4:25
what you were feeling is
4:27
maybe pressure on the belly
4:29
from the lungs.
4:30
So,
4:30
cause all that stuff pushes into your
4:32
diaphragm.
4:32
So you might've been getting
4:33
gas and stuff from that.
4:35
I'm sure the doctor probably
4:36
talked to you about that.
4:39
Well,
4:39
the one thing he found was my stomach
4:42
was really tight.
4:43
Like it was being pushed out inches, um,
4:48
from everything that's going on.
4:50
Yeah.
4:50
From the lungs.
4:51
Yeah.
4:51
Yeah.
4:52
So it was distended like way out there.
4:56
And it,
4:57
that today is where that really hurts.
5:00
Like my stomach hurts so bad
5:02
this morning when I woke up, um,
5:06
And then it's just burp and
5:07
burp and burp trying to get some relief.
5:10
Yeah.
5:13
And then I went to the
5:13
doctor and all that.
5:14
So he gave me antibiotics and a steroid.
5:22
And it's just for five days.
5:25
And then he wants to see me,
5:27
see if there's any kind of
5:29
headway with it.
5:31
And then we'll go from there.
5:32
Okay.
5:32
Did they do lung x-rays?
5:34
Not today.
5:35
Okay.
5:36
Okay.
5:36
So you're on a steroid and I
5:38
was going to say,
5:39
I was going to say before you said,
5:41
I'm assuming they put you
5:42
on steroids and antibiotics.
5:43
So you're going to likely
5:44
start to feel pretty good
5:46
in a couple of days with
5:47
the steroid for sure.
5:49
But yeah,
5:50
huge setback for sure in terms of
5:52
that stuff.
5:53
But, you know,
5:56
the main thing that I want
5:57
to touch on as we're going
5:58
into this is the title of
5:59
today's episode is another
6:01
hurdle right before the open.
6:04
Right.
6:05
And so,
6:08
I really have mixed feelings
6:09
about that title because I
6:11
think that in your head,
6:12
you're already like, oh, this is great.
6:15
Now I'm going into the open,
6:16
not being at my best.
6:18
I'm under, I'm not, I'm sick.
6:21
You know,
6:21
I'm not gonna really be able to showcase
6:24
myself as a person and
6:26
showing up at the gym.
6:28
And it's almost like
6:28
becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy that,
6:31
oh, my open workouts are going to suck.
6:33
Okay.
6:34
First of all, I love CrossFit.
6:36
I love the open.
6:37
I love the games.
6:38
I'm all about it.
6:39
You know,
6:39
my goal is I want to compete again,
6:41
but the end of the day, it's one workout.
6:45
That's likely going to take
6:46
about 10 minutes out of your entire week.
6:49
So this hurdle, I don't give a shit.
6:52
about the open.
6:54
I don't give a shit about the open.
6:56
I'm gonna be honest.
6:57
That is the least of my
6:59
worries when you're telling
7:00
me that you have a lung
7:00
infection that is so hard
7:02
for you to walk up the stairs.
7:05
My concern for you is your
7:07
health and being able to
7:09
walk up the stairs.
7:10
So when I wrote the title
7:13
Um,
7:13
and I'm not concerned with the open
7:14
either.
7:15
Good.
7:16
I truly not.
7:17
I really just want to feel
7:18
better and be able to be
7:21
active again without breathing heavy.
7:25
Yeah.
7:26
And so the title was just,
7:30
everybody's talking about the open.
7:31
I just kind of went in there.
7:33
Well,
7:33
and why I'm going to say that is
7:35
because I'm happy that you said that,
7:37
but do you know how many
7:38
people right now?
7:41
out there are stressing
7:43
about being sick two weeks
7:45
before the open or having a
7:47
funky itis in their elbow
7:49
before the open.
7:50
Freaking the games ain't
7:51
writing their paycheck.
7:53
They're going in there to show their ego.
7:55
You know, like it's like, it's dude,
7:57
it's not worth it.
7:58
So my bigger concern for you
8:00
is where we're at right now.
8:03
with your health.
8:04
Okay.
8:05
And, and this is like really important,
8:07
you know,
8:08
like your health really matters.
8:10
I'm going to be honest.
8:12
I think you are entirely too stressed,
8:16
entirely too stressed.
8:18
I'm going to be flat out
8:19
honest with you today at your coach.
8:20
You are not prioritizing
8:22
your health in your life.
8:26
You are the last person that
8:28
matters in your life.
8:32
And I'm being brutally
8:33
honest with you today.
8:34
I wouldn't say last,
8:37
but I'm putting a lot of
8:38
people ahead of me.
8:40
A lot of people.
8:43
And it's got you in a situation right now.
8:47
And the solution is recognizing that
8:52
Just like your coach,
8:53
there's only so much your
8:54
body's going to be capable
8:55
of before it says, sorry,
8:58
I'm going to put you on
9:00
your ass and you're going
9:02
to have to deal with this.
9:03
And all those things that
9:04
you've been putting before
9:05
you are going to have to
9:06
take the backseat burner.
9:08
And that's only going to
9:09
make you feel worse because
9:11
now you're letting people down.
9:12
And that's not the truth,
9:14
but that's what you're going to feel.
9:16
You know,
9:17
so because I want you to get better.
9:20
And yes, like I've mentioned to you,
9:22
I've been saying this, like,
9:24
I think that there's
9:24
something going on with
9:25
your immune system.
9:26
You've likely had a lung
9:28
infection for the past 12 to 16 weeks.
9:30
It's been just brewing a little bit,
9:32
a little bit of stuff brewing in there.
9:35
And, you know, it just comes down to,
9:38
you know, people don't realize, you know,
9:40
not, yeah, you do sleep pretty well,
9:43
but your sleep schedule
9:44
isn't great for your circadian rhythm.
9:46
You know,
9:46
I think that you're working up
9:48
until the time you go to bed.
9:49
You know,
9:50
I think that you do a lot of things.
9:52
You know,
9:53
you're stressed a lot with work stuff.
9:55
You're stressed a lot with podcast stuff.
9:57
You're stressed a lot with a lot of things,
9:59
you know,
10:00
and you're not really taking
10:02
your own self and saying,
10:04
I matter in my life.
10:08
And I get it.
10:09
I don't disagree with that.
10:16
Just to answer Philip Kelly.
10:20
I do go to therapy,
10:22
but my therapist just
10:24
retired in December.
10:26
Yeah.
10:28
So I need to find a new one.
10:30
Let me just tell y'all, therapy,
10:33
underrated.
10:35
We should all have a therapist,
10:37
especially if you work from home.
10:41
I'm just going to be honest
10:43
because you are literally
10:45
always second guessing
10:46
every thought that goes
10:47
through your head.
10:48
And it's like to the nth degree.
10:51
So I do want to disclose a
10:53
few things that I've kept
10:55
private because it's just a lot.
10:59
My mother-in-law has cancer.
11:02
My sister has cancer.
11:05
Um, my sister and my mom are fighting.
11:08
So now like we're the only
11:11
ones that listen to my sister.
11:15
It's, it's just a lot.
11:18
And we're four hours away
11:20
from all this going on and
11:24
it's taking its toll on my wife big time.
11:26
So then I feel like I have
11:28
to be behind her.
11:31
and supporting her however I can.
11:34
And all of that is taking a
11:36
front seat to like our stuff.
11:40
And it's killing my wife and me.
11:46
So first off,
11:48
I'm really proud of you for
11:51
opening up about that
11:52
because that was really hard.
11:56
But I'll be honest, I feel like this
12:01
is the first podcast in a
12:02
while that you've been
12:04
authentic with actually telling us,
12:08
not just me,
12:09
but where you're struggling
12:10
in your life to make priorities,
12:13
make you a priority.
12:14
And what you're dealing with is not easy.
12:18
It's not easy.
12:19
It's not easy to watch loved ones,
12:21
especially because I don't
12:21
know the severity of either
12:23
of those situations.
12:24
And one is your wife's mom
12:25
and one is your sister.
12:26
You said your sister.
12:28
So your your blood and the
12:30
other is your mom's blood
12:31
or your wife's blood.
12:32
That's that's not easy at
12:34
all to deal with.
12:36
And.
12:37
You have every right to lean on people,
12:39
including a therapist,
12:40
including friends and family.
12:42
And no,
12:43
this is definitely very vulnerable.
12:45
You are on YouTube right now
12:47
sharing your story with people.
12:49
But guess what?
12:50
The cool thing about this
12:51
channel is the people that
12:52
are listening to you right
12:53
now truly care about you,
12:56
like truly care about you.
12:58
And sharing that with them,
12:59
they literally- I know,
13:01
they're going to make me cry on here.
13:04
They literally,
13:05
they would literally wanna
13:06
be in the room with you and like,
13:08
and just hug you and try
13:12
and make things better for
13:13
you and make your life easier.
13:15
Can we cook you dinner?
13:16
Like they would do that for you.
13:18
I truly believe that all of
13:20
the people in this chat
13:22
would be there for you.
13:23
So you being open today and
13:24
sharing that was the best
13:26
thing you ever did ever.
13:30
And I'm so proud of you.
13:31
And it doesn't, now, first and foremost.
13:34
And that's the tip of the iceberg.
13:36
Because we're having family
13:39
fights on both sides.
13:41
It's just really complicated.
13:43
A lot of people from my
13:44
hometown are getting cancer.
13:48
Classmates, friends.
13:50
And it's scary.
13:52
And then all this stuff happened to me.
13:54
And I was like, oh, my God.
13:56
I'm getting the cancer like
13:58
everybody else.
14:00
Guys, cancer is, I don't even,
14:05
it's really sad.
14:08
the rate of, of how many,
14:09
the amount of people,
14:10
I feel like you can be in a
14:11
room of five people and
14:14
like at least two of them have cancer.
14:16
And I think every single one
14:17
of them has had a blood
14:19
relative with cancer.
14:21
Now, do you feel comfortable disclosing,
14:23
um, in terms of prognosis, uh,
14:26
stages and all that are
14:28
things looking positive on,
14:30
on those ends?
14:31
Or I know that you had told
14:33
us earlier on about the
14:34
mom-in-law was a leg, a leg cancer,
14:36
correct?
14:37
Something on the skin.
14:38
throat throat okay no that
14:40
wasn't what we what we
14:41
heard about you and told me
14:42
we had throat cancer we we
14:45
got all that cleared up
14:47
they found three spots on
14:48
her lungs um it's early
14:51
they think um they think
14:53
they're gonna get it good
14:55
prognosis with that my
14:57
sister's weird um she was
14:59
having trouble breathing
15:01
they found masses in her lungs
15:03
They removed those.
15:04
They were not cancer.
15:06
And then in her hip and groin area,
15:10
started to develop a cluster of cancer.
15:12
Okay.
15:12
All right.
15:15
Well,
15:16
first things first is... And I don't
15:18
know the prognosis there.
15:19
Yeah.
15:21
Praying, obviously.
15:23
Prayers for your mother-in-law,
15:25
prayers for your sister.
15:26
prayers for your family,
15:28
because I know that I know
15:31
that stress of having family drama,
15:34
when you don't need family drama,
15:36
when people are fighting
15:37
over things that don't
15:38
matter when you got a loved one sick,
15:40
it doesn't and it doesn't help anything.
15:42
All of that aside, okay,
15:45
because I do want to really
15:47
make sure that you are taken care of.
15:50
No matter what happens in your life,
15:53
and the people around you,
15:55
your life still matters.
15:58
And putting you on the
15:59
backseat burner for the
16:01
state of worry is not going
16:03
to help the situation.
16:04
That goes for your wife as well.
16:06
You guys are a unit.
16:09
And no matter what goes on
16:11
outside of your house,
16:12
you guys need to lean on each other.
16:13
And sometimes that means
16:16
making the hard choices to say, hey, no,
16:19
we need to take care of our health.
16:21
We need to come first this weekend.
16:23
We don't need to be involved
16:25
in the bullshit and being
16:27
okay with that decision,
16:28
knowing that you're not
16:29
going to be able to affect
16:30
things in a positive or a negative way.
16:34
You know,
16:35
like there's a lot of people out
16:37
there dealing with sick loved ones.
16:41
And in fact, I can talk about her.
16:44
I had a client that got
16:45
diagnosed with cancer when
16:47
working with me.
16:49
And let me just tell you,
16:51
one of the happiest women I
16:52
could see being told, literally,
16:54
this is not looking good.
16:55
Had to go through chemo, radiation,
16:57
lost all her hair,
16:58
lost a bunch of weight.
16:59
And the entire time, every single week,
17:03
I got a photo of her, bald head and all,
17:06
with a muscle.
17:09
I'm going strong.
17:10
because she wasn't gonna
17:11
fucking quit on herself.
17:14
And you have to realize that
17:17
you can only do so much for other people.
17:21
You still gotta take care of you.
17:24
You gotta take care of you.
17:26
You're only gonna be able to
17:28
help them if you are 100%.
17:30
And I'm not telling you to be selfish.
17:33
I'm not telling you not to
17:34
go see your family.
17:36
I'm not telling you that.
17:36
I'm telling you that we've
17:38
gotta take Scott's journey
17:40
Seriously,
17:42
just like the guy that writes
17:44
your paycheck,
17:45
the job you show up to every day,
17:47
that stuff matters.
17:49
This matters too.
17:55
It's hard to look at it that way.
17:57
I know.
17:59
It feels shameful.
18:01
You feel guilty.
18:03
You feel selfish.
18:05
You feel overwhelmed.
18:07
You feel all of those things.
18:10
This right here, super hard, super hard.
18:20
It's,
18:20
it's a gift and a curse being
18:23
somebody who cares so much about others.
18:27
I get it.
18:28
I totally get it, dude.
18:30
And,
18:31
and right now that's why we're having
18:32
this conversation, you know,
18:35
cause I want you to walk away today.
18:40
saying like, right now,
18:42
I'm gonna make the best
18:43
choices for my health,
18:45
whatever that looks like.
18:49
And right now,
18:51
you wanna know what the
18:51
leading cause of cancer really is?
18:53
It's not your fucking
18:56
aspartame in your diet
18:57
sodas and that shit, it's stress.
19:02
People do not realize how
19:04
much stress affects your
19:07
body's immune system.
19:09
And if you have the genes for cancer,
19:13
because we all have those genes,
19:15
if we have them or not,
19:17
the expression of them,
19:19
oxidative stress is one of
19:22
the biggest causes of cancer.
19:25
There is truth to being able
19:26
to stress yourself sick and dead.
19:29
I do believe that 100%.
19:32
And there are studies on there.
19:33
PubMed, go ahead and Google stress, cancer,
19:35
PubMed.
19:36
You'll find a bunch of studies.
19:37
I don't have to tell you,
19:40
but so that was my,
19:44
I didn't expect to go there today.
19:45
I'm happy that we're having this talk.
19:48
I mean, I'm not happy, but I'm,
19:49
I didn't expect that to be
19:50
what we were talking about today.
19:51
So, but I'm going to put it before to you.
19:59
Um, I just feel helpless right now.
20:02
I feel like I'm so weak, um,
20:06
after this weekend that I, I can't,
20:09
I can't help anybody.
20:11
Um, and that worries me a lot.
20:16
So I'm trying to,
20:18
I'm trying to flip the
20:20
script and take care of
20:23
myself so I can take care of others.
20:26
Absolutely.
20:28
Let's start with mapping out
20:29
what that looks like.
20:30
Okay.
20:32
I think you have pretty good sleep habits.
20:34
Am I right or am I wrong?
20:35
Are you lying about that?
20:39
Wow.
20:39
Jab.
20:42
I go to bed at the same time every night.
20:44
I go to bed at 10 o'clock.
20:45
What?
20:45
10?
20:45
Up at 745.
20:46
Up at 745.
20:46
That's 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
20:46
I'm happy with that.
20:55
You're getting a good amount of sleep.
20:56
Okay.
20:57
You sleep through the night
20:58
for the most part when you're not sick?
21:00
Yeah.
21:01
I have not been the last five days.
21:04
Okay.
21:05
So you are restless right
21:06
now when you sleep?
21:09
I just wake up not being able to breathe.
21:11
Okay.
21:11
And then recovering from
21:12
that is really hard.
21:14
Throughout the day,
21:15
do you feel energized in your day?
21:17
No.
21:17
Okay.
21:19
Before last week,
21:20
were you feeling energized in your day?
21:22
Yes.
21:22
Okay.
21:23
Okay.
21:23
So this past week has just
21:24
been hitting you pretty hard.
21:25
All right.
21:25
That's good.
21:26
I know the gut stuff has been going on.
21:30
Your day,
21:32
how much time you work from 8 a.m.
21:36
until what time?
21:37
Five.
21:38
Eight to five.
21:40
Yeah.
21:42
Of that time,
21:44
how many times during the day
21:45
do you actually get up off
21:46
of your computer?
21:49
Quite a bit.
21:50
I really did.
21:51
After the games this year,
21:52
I did put some habits in
21:54
place where I do get up and take a break.
21:58
Like if we were in an office building,
22:00
I'd get a break.
22:01
Okay.
22:02
And so I'm just setting that
22:04
up for myself.
22:06
Okay.
22:07
Okay.
22:07
So you do get up and you take breaks.
22:09
Okay.
22:11
Eating schedule is pretty routine.
22:15
Yeah.
22:15
Okay.
22:17
How are you relaxing between
22:18
the hours of 5 PM and 10 PM?
22:28
Is that when a lot of your
22:29
worries starts to come in?
22:30
Is that when you and your
22:30
wife are talking and
22:31
talking to the family and all that stuff?
22:34
Yeah.
22:35
Okay.
22:36
All right.
22:37
Um,
22:37
can we put some boundaries there in
22:40
terms of like,
22:41
how often are you talking
22:42
to your family and she
22:43
talking to her mom-in-law every day?
22:47
Um, mom,
22:49
mom-in-law probably every other day.
22:51
Okay.
22:55
Um,
22:57
it's my sister-in-law is a pain in the
23:02
ass and, and that's where,
23:06
so what happens is she
23:08
sends in her side of the
23:09
story and then we have to
23:12
figure out the reality of
23:14
by then reaching out to
23:17
family members that we trust.
23:20
Yeah.
23:21
Gotcha.
23:22
Okay.
23:23
So reality is,
23:25
is that you don't have to
23:28
put out fires in the family.
23:31
You're putting that
23:32
responsibility on yourself.
23:34
So my suggestion right now
23:38
is to stop putting out fires.
23:40
And if you want to call and
23:42
you want to check in,
23:43
And you want to say hi and
23:45
you want to check in on
23:45
your sister and your mom and your family,
23:49
schedule it in, have the nightly call,
23:52
pray and move on because
23:55
otherwise my sister, it's different.
23:57
Right.
23:58
She's so mad at the world
24:02
that we don't know when we get to know.
24:03
Yeah.
24:04
Like.
24:06
It could be two weeks.
24:06
I don't hear from her even
24:08
trying like to reach out
24:11
and I don't get a response for two weeks.
24:13
Yeah.
24:14
Then I don't feel like I'm
24:15
getting the full story.
24:16
I don't know where we really are.
24:18
That's so that's that stress,
24:20
which is very different than the other.
24:24
So here's what I'm going to tell you then.
24:26
This is me giving you
24:28
coaching is I'm not going
24:31
to be able to control what calls you make,
24:34
who you talk to, what you do.
24:36
However,
24:37
I can tell you that you're going
24:39
to use those things either
24:40
as an excuse not to take care of yourself,
24:43
or you're going to make the
24:44
decisions that, hey,
24:45
I'm going to take on this
24:46
stress as a choice,
24:48
but I'm still committed to
24:49
the things I need to do for me.
24:53
And that's going to be your choice.
24:56
And some days you might realize,
24:58
you know what?
24:59
I don't need to talk to that
25:00
person today and add the stress.
25:02
I can wait till tomorrow.
25:04
I don't need to put out a fire today.
25:05
And that's really important for you.
25:08
And I do think we've got to
25:09
work on getting your immune
25:11
system 100% again,
25:14
getting you 100% again.
25:16
And that's important.
25:17
So a couple of things for
25:19
this week is food diary.
25:24
I was kind of checking into
25:25
things a little bit and I
25:26
didn't see much.
25:28
It looked like you hadn't
25:28
really logged a whole bunch.
25:30
I haven't really been eating much.
25:32
I can't.
25:34
Every time I eat, my stomach blows up.
25:37
Okay.
25:38
All right.
25:39
So here's what we need to do.
25:40
Okay.
25:42
I don't care if you're not
25:43
eating much or you're
25:44
eating your normal food.
25:46
You got to get back to
25:47
tracking your food because
25:48
I got to be able to help
25:49
you with your nutrition.
25:50
All right.
25:51
So 100% honesty in your food journal.
25:56
Like that's got to happen
25:58
because I also want to make
25:59
sure that you're getting in
26:01
enough micronutrients.
26:02
You're getting in enough protein.
26:05
Protein is one of the
26:06
biggest factors in your immune system.
26:08
It's not just the antioxidants.
26:11
Protein does have a huge
26:12
factor on your immune system.
26:13
Okay.
26:15
Fats have a huge factor on
26:16
your immune system in terms
26:17
of how they affect your
26:18
neurotransmitters and your hormones.
26:20
So we need to make sure that
26:21
you're getting enough of that stuff.
26:23
Are you taking your vitamin D?
26:25
Okay, good,
26:26
because vitamin D does help
26:27
with the immune system, all right?
26:29
So you're taking your vitamin D,
26:31
Need to get back to food tracking.
26:33
All right.
26:33
So before I even give you
26:35
parameters in terms of what
26:37
I want to see in your meals,
26:38
let's just spend the next
26:39
three days and get back to
26:41
actually tracking your food again, 100%.
26:42
And then I'll take a look at
26:46
what you're eating and we
26:47
can start to kind of maybe
26:48
I'll look at things on, let's say Tuesday,
26:50
on Friday and see going
26:52
into the weekend if I want
26:53
to make any adjustments to
26:55
what you're eating.
26:56
You'd be like, hey, I'm feeling bloated.
26:57
I'm feeling blah.
26:59
You know,
26:59
I think that right now bone broth
27:00
soups is probably something
27:02
that you should be having
27:03
on a regular basis.
27:05
You know,
27:05
I know you like things like ramen.
27:08
So making some ramen,
27:09
but using bone broth.
27:11
I had that last night.
27:13
Yeah.
27:13
I think that that's a great
27:14
thing to increase the
27:16
protein and also get you
27:18
some of those that's good
27:20
nutrients for your immune system.
27:22
So I think that bone broth
27:24
soups would be great for you right now.
27:25
Really good for the gut as well.
27:27
So I think that daily you
27:29
should be maybe looking at
27:30
maybe making a soup or
27:31
something like that.
27:32
It's still cold up there, right?
27:33
Yeah.
27:34
Yeah.
27:34
Cheryl, it's still freaking cold.
27:36
So that would be good.
27:38
Um,
27:39
and if you don't know a good
27:41
brand the kettle and fire
27:42
brand is good there's
27:43
plenty of bone broths out
27:44
there yeah um so let's make
27:47
let's make get let's get in
27:49
a cup of bone broth a day I
27:51
think that that's one thing
27:52
that you can can do in a
27:55
soup in a stew in something
27:58
okay tracking your food
28:00
getting in a cup of bone broth a day.
28:03
You're already taking your supplements.
28:04
Okay.
28:05
The next thing that we have
28:06
to address is movement.
28:08
All right.
28:09
I get it.
28:10
You don't feel good.
28:11
Walking up the stairs is
28:12
getting you winded.
28:14
I don't want you doing CrossFit this week.
28:16
I want you on that spin bike.
28:18
I don't care if it's just
28:19
for literally at a zone one with,
28:23
with your mouth closed,
28:25
just trying to breathe through your nose.
28:28
Nasal breathing only.
28:30
That's how intense I want it to be.
28:32
That you should not have to
28:33
open your mouth to breathe.
28:35
I want you doing 20 to 30 minutes a day,
28:38
every single day.
28:40
Because those things right there,
28:42
the bone broth, the food tracking,
28:45
and the little bit of
28:46
movement is going to get
28:48
you starting to feel better.
28:49
And it's going to help you
28:49
kick that infection a little bit faster.
28:52
It's going to get the mitochondria going.
28:54
Mitochondria also help with
28:55
the immune system.
28:58
Okay.
28:59
Phillip Kelly.
29:01
Yes.
29:01
Nasal breathing only.
29:02
If you've ever tried it with
29:03
something like burpees or
29:05
kettlebell swings, it's even worse,
29:09
even worse.
29:10
But the bike is actually pretty bad.
29:12
Okay.
29:14
So actually where I'm
29:14
getting the most air right now is nasal.
29:17
That's so that's exactly good.
29:19
It's good for you.
29:20
So 20 to 30 minutes a day.
29:23
I'll put it in trainer eyes
29:24
as a thing you can check off.
29:25
Actually do that right now.
29:28
Um, I'm going to,
29:29
I'm going to actually put a
29:30
checklist for you right now.
29:32
You'll have daily weigh in.
29:36
You're going to have track
29:36
your food and you're going
29:39
to have 20 to 30 minutes of bike daily,
29:45
because I think that those
29:46
are the first things that
29:47
we need to start with to
29:48
kind of get you on the path to recovery.
29:52
You know, I think that here's the deal.
29:54
This goes for everybody.
29:56
Stress and what you're
29:57
dealing with is not easy at all,
30:00
especially when it comes to
30:02
family's health.
30:04
But we can't change that stuff.
30:06
The more we focus on it,
30:08
the less we lose sight of
30:09
the things that we can focus on.
30:11
Like just being a support system,
30:13
like being a sounding board
30:15
when your sister calls you
30:16
and she doesn't talk to you
30:17
for two weeks and just listening.
30:20
You know,
30:21
and being a sounding board for your wife,
30:24
you know,
30:25
like that stuff is so important.
30:30
So on your dashboard,
30:31
you have daily weigh in,
30:34
track your food and 20 to
30:35
30 minute bike every single day.
30:38
Oh, I forgot the bone broth.
30:40
Can you do the bone broth?
30:41
Are you comfortable with that?
30:45
I like bone broth.
30:46
Good.
30:48
One, I'm going to put one to two cups.
30:53
And that's probably going to
30:54
be for a little while.
30:55
I think your,
30:55
I think your gut can use it
30:57
as well for sure.
30:59
Okay.
31:01
So obviously I'm assuming
31:03
that you didn't go and get
31:04
any workouts in this week.
31:07
Yeah, I didn't think so.
31:08
Okay.
31:10
So my goal this week is that
31:11
obviously no gym or just
31:12
getting those 20 to 30
31:13
minute bike sessions in.
31:18
to answer Corey, he asked,
31:21
how long did they say?
31:21
So the infection clears up.
31:23
They said,
31:24
I would start feeling better
31:25
tonight if I could get the
31:27
prescriptions in.
31:28
And I did.
31:30
Um, but it won't,
31:32
I'm not going to feel
31:33
myself for a couple of days.
31:34
Yeah.
31:39
Um,
31:39
and then I think he wants to see me in
31:41
five days because he doesn't know, like,
31:47
This was just kind of a first step.
31:50
And then, and it was an emergency visit.
31:52
And then now we can start
31:54
doing some more testing, stuff like that.
31:57
Yeah.
31:58
I feel like chest x-rays
32:00
would be good just to make
32:00
sure that you don't have pneumonia.
32:03
Yeah,
32:03
he did test me for that in some way
32:05
and said he doesn't think I have it.
32:08
Good.
32:10
Well,
32:10
I wrote down what our goals are for
32:12
this week because that's important.
32:15
More so,
32:16
I'm really happy that you shared a
32:18
little bit about what
32:18
you've been going through
32:19
personally because, you know,
32:21
when it comes to nutrition, you know,
32:24
if a person's brain isn't quite there,
32:29
it's going to show up in
32:30
their nutrition and their workouts.
32:33
It's something that,
32:35
and we can only hide it for
32:36
so long before it ends up surfacing.
32:40
So I'm happy that you did share.
32:45
So,
32:47
and I will be praying for your mom-in-law,
32:50
for your sister,
32:51
and also for your
32:52
sister-in-law who doesn't
32:53
know how to handle things
32:55
as good as she could.
32:57
Yeah.
32:58
Yeah, that's,
33:01
and maybe that'll be a
33:01
conversation next week,
33:03
but that's another complication.
33:05
I'll tell you off the air
33:05
and then we can decide if
33:07
you want to talk about it next week.
33:08
Again,
33:09
the main thing here is all of those
33:12
things in life are going to happen.
33:16
You still have to go on.
33:19
Your life has got to go on.
33:21
In the words of Celine Dion,
33:23
do not make me pull out my song, my song.
33:28
Do not make me pull out my
33:29
song because it would not be pretty.
33:31
I did not grow up with a
33:33
choir or chorus in mind for sure.
33:36
Just, just kidding.
33:37
But, um,
33:38
I love this.
33:39
I love what Judy just said.
33:43
Post your stories each night
33:44
so we can keep up.
33:48
I will post a screenshot of his, if you,
33:51
if he checks things off in
33:52
trainer eyes for me,
33:54
I will post it on the
33:55
stories every single day
33:57
that he does that.
33:59
So he's got to check them
34:00
off and on the honor system
34:02
that he's actually doing
34:03
them and not just checking them off,
34:05
which I know that he will.
34:06
I know he'll do them.
34:09
I will call you and sing.
34:10
My heart will go on.
34:11
Scott, don't tempt me.
34:12
Corey, you know,
34:13
there is a calling number now.
34:15
I mean, just saying,
34:17
isn't there a calling number, Scott?
34:21
It's not hooked up right now.
34:22
I'm just kidding.
34:23
I'm just kidding.
34:25
But Kenneth wants to give you a hug.
34:28
He really does.
34:29
No.
34:30
Yeah.
34:31
So we're all here for you, dude.
34:32
We're all here for you.
34:33
So.
34:35
this audience is the best, this group.
34:37
And I, I don't even,
34:38
I shouldn't call them on audience.
34:40
They're more than that.
34:41
Like getting to meet Judy at
34:43
MFC and hanging out with
34:44
her and her husband and Corey.
34:47
Hell, I was, I roomed with Corey.
34:49
Um, Kenneth has become a good friend.
34:53
Like, man,
34:56
you guys are just freaking the best.
35:00
They care about you.
35:01
Like I said,
35:02
any one of them would take you
35:03
out to dinner and listen to
35:05
you vent for hours.
35:07
They would.
35:08
They would.
35:09
All right, guys.
35:12
With that, thank you so much for all.
35:14
The prayers, well wishes, vibes,
35:16
whatever it is you do,
35:17
I appreciate every single thing.
35:22
Corey just texted me Celine Dion.
35:27
With that,
35:28
I will see everybody next time
35:30
with Cheryl as we go
35:34
through this and see how
35:35
I'm doing in a week.
35:37
We'll see you all next time
35:38
on the Clydesdale Media
35:40
Weight Loss Journey.
35:41
Bye, guys.
