  Welcome to the Clydesdale Media Weight Loss Journey.
• 0:37
  My name is Scott Schweitzer.
• 0:38
  I'm the Clydesdale.
• 0:39
  I'm the one losing the weight.
• 0:41
  She's Coach Cheryl Nasso.
• 0:43
  She's the one teaching me how.
• 0:45
  And we do this as our weekly check-in every week just to kind of see how everything is going.
• 0:51
  And so here we are.
• 0:53
  Before we get into the weight loss, though, I've been in back-to-back meetings with
• 0:58
  The first meeting, we had a meeting last week to put something on the back burner.
• 1:03
  And yet we talked about it again today for an hour.
• 1:07
  Then in the second meeting, we get in there and they say, we don't have much to talk about.
• 1:11
  We'll probably be done in 10 minutes.
• 1:12
  An hour later, they're still going.
• 1:14
  I said, listen, I got to go.
• 1:16
  See you.
• 1:19
  I hate meetings.
• 1:22
  I agree.
• 1:23
  Especially when you feel like it's just BS that like,
• 1:28
  Could have been handled without being in a meeting.
• 1:30
  I went from a really good mood today to a real bad mood in like two meetings.
• 1:35
  Yeah.
• 1:35
  Yeah.
• 1:37
  It's crazy.
• 1:38
  It's just, yeah, go ahead.
• 1:41
  I was just going to say, but you know, what gets me out of the funk are people like Lex and Holly and Corey and Judy hanging out with us on a, on a Tuesday afternoon.
• 1:53
  This is my favorite time of the week.
• 1:56
  Yeah.
• 1:57
  yeah yeah i like the 4 p.m spot i think it's been great for us and jody's here i get jody twice in one day jody and holly were both on earlier today for my um uh jody said i hope you told everybody to shut the and i'll let you all finish the rest yeah yeah well no i totally can relate to sometimes like it can just be a snowballing it's like one meeting can put you in a bad mood and then the rest of them are just like
• 2:24
  Yeah, I totally get it.
• 2:26
  And not knowing exactly what your job entails and what these meetings might be.
• 2:30
  Sometimes it's like kind of like being in school when like you feel like you're smarter than the teacher and you're like just sitting there because you have to.
• 2:38
  And the teacher's wondering why you're dozing off.
• 2:41
  And it's because like literally it's it's just boring.
• 2:44
  So.
• 2:45
  Well, the first meeting, they wouldn't even let me talk for like 15 minutes.
• 2:48
  Every time I'd go to say something, they'd talk over me.
• 2:51
  So I just muted myself and I literally turned my head like I wasn't like a kid not listening anymore.
• 3:00
  Well, I know your day was kind of crappy, but your weekend was amazing.
• 3:06
  So fill us in on your travel to Arizona.
• 3:12
  How'd you do?
• 3:14
  So I left on Wednesday morning real early.
• 3:20
  I did not eat before the flight because I don't like to go to the bathroom on a plane.
• 3:27
  Yeah.
• 3:29
  So we get to Tempe.
• 3:33
  We're an hour early.
• 3:34
  I can't even check into the Airbnb for nine hours.
• 3:38
  Okay.
• 3:44
  So I, I get down to baggage claim.
• 3:46
  I get my bags.
• 3:46
  There's a Starbucks there.
• 3:48
  I have my first cup of coffee and I got a egg sandwich.
• 3:56
  I then just kind of hung out at the Starbucks because it had a couch, caught up on some stuff on my phone.
• 4:05
  And then Stephanie Price from the teen pit, she was head of medical at Legends.
• 4:12
  So she was there the day before and she said I could come over and crash at her Airbnb and
• 4:19
  So take my luggage, backpack, two bags, has all my gear, all my clothes, all that, hop in an Uber, go to a place.
• 4:27
  She's on the third floor, no elevator.
• 4:30
  So now I'm like farmer carrying two luggage, a 40 pound backpack up the flights of stairs, get in, have a nice time with her.
• 4:41
  She goes to take her kids swimming and I'd fall asleep on her couch.
• 4:47
  And I had an apple.
• 4:50
  She offered me an apple and I had some water.
• 4:53
  Then I get to the venue and I don't eat until the end of the day.
• 4:57
  And I am ready to
• 5:01
  take someone off.
• 5:02
  Yeah.
• 5:03
  It was way too long.
• 5:04
  I screwed the first day up.
• 5:07
  We get back to the Airbnb.
• 5:09
  Jamie finally gets there.
• 5:10
  Her plane was delayed.
• 5:11
  A lot of stuff happened there, but then her husband cooked for us and it was awesome.
• 5:16
  A nice big meal.
• 5:18
  So we sat down and ate, um, did that.
• 5:21
  And then the rest of the week, like fell into line because the one thing legends did is take care of everybody.
• 5:29
  Um,
• 5:29
  They took care of the vendors.
• 5:31
  They took care of the volunteers.
• 5:32
  They took care of the media.
• 5:35
  They fed them all weekend long.
• 5:37
  And it was basically like a rice of some kind, a big thing of veggies, because it was like a little buffet, a big thing of veggies, and then two choices of protein.
• 5:50
  Awesome.
• 5:52
  At every single meal.
• 5:53
  That's awesome.
• 5:56
  Yeah, so it was exactly what we said, awesome.
• 6:00
  We could take a break, go in, get lunch, get dinner.
• 6:04
  So I was set the entire weekend.
• 6:08
  That's freaking amazing.
• 6:10
  I mean, they don't even do that at the games.
• 6:13
  Like, that's amazing.
• 6:15
  So that's really awesome.
• 6:16
  But I've been preaching forever.
• 6:18
  The media are the people telling your story.
• 6:22
  You want them to tell the best story possible.
• 6:24
  You want them to be happy.
• 6:25
  Yeah, yeah.
• 6:26
  The volunteers were there for free doing all this stuff for you.
• 6:30
  They should be taking care of the vendors.
• 6:33
  They're the ones paying for you to be able to hold this event.
• 6:36
  Like they, they took care of the people they needed to take care of.
• 6:41
  Gotcha.
• 6:42
  It was awesome.
• 6:43
  So it sounds like nutrition was covered and that's awesome.
• 6:46
  I mean, that's great.
• 6:48
  And then in terms of like,
• 6:51
  just overall, like the rest of the day, did you have enough snacks and everything on hand or were you pretty much set with the meals and just kind of stuck with those?
• 7:01
  I really just stuck with the meals and did a snack at the end of the night.
• 7:06
  Gotcha.
• 7:07
  Did you guys go out to eat anywhere?
• 7:08
  Uh, so I did go to In-N-Out for the first time in my life.
• 7:15
  Oh,
• 7:17
  All right.
• 7:18
  So just tried the burger.
• 7:21
  That was it.
• 7:22
  And then we went to a Mexican restaurant because you're in Arizona, right?
• 7:28
  Right.
• 7:28
  And I got a really good burrito, like a chicken burrito.
• 7:32
  It was really good.
• 7:34
  That was it.
• 7:35
  So let's go back to In-N-Out Burger.
• 7:38
  Worth it or scale of 1 to 10?
• 7:42
  Worth it.
• 7:43
  All right.
• 7:44
  All right.
• 7:44
  Nine.
• 7:45
  Nine and a half.
• 7:46
  Love it.
• 7:47
  Uh, just cause kind of curious.
• 7:49
  I just always like to know that, you know, it's like those places, like those nostalgic places.
• 7:52
  You're like, was it worth it or not?
• 7:55
  Okay.
• 7:55
  It was worth it.
• 7:56
  So that's awesome.
• 7:57
  And the Mexican restaurant, pretty good.
• 8:00
  Yeah, I'd say a seven.
• 8:03
  Awesome.
• 8:03
  All right.
• 8:03
  Awesome.
• 8:04
  And obviously the food at the venue, pretty good.
• 8:08
  Yeah, it was really fresh.
• 8:10
  That's awesome.
• 8:12
  I think it was somebody from the university cooking it because it was in the sports facility.
• 8:18
  Cool.
• 8:19
  So probably the same people who feed the football team and all that.
• 8:24
  You had the best case scenario for travel.
• 8:26
  You were traveling with somebody that was competing who was likely eating pretty healthy.
• 8:32
  And you had them serving you healthy food at the venue.
• 8:35
  So you had the best scenario.
• 8:37
  of both everything.
• 8:38
  So it was really just your travel days that were probably a little bit screwed up.
• 8:42
  Did you end up doing any workouts?
• 8:48
  I did not.
• 8:49
  Yeah.
• 8:50
  Like I said in our last podcast, I know you.
• 8:53
  Like I was like, I feel like I know you.
• 8:57
  And I think somebody else in there was like, ha ha, Cheryl knows you.
• 9:00
  We also know like I'm nonstop moving.
• 9:04
  Exactly.
• 9:05
  Well, that's why I said it.
• 9:07
  I knew that going into the week, like, expectations for you, you're so... The thought, you're like, oh, there's rowers.
• 9:14
  I want to do things differently.
• 9:15
  I'm like, but I know you.
• 9:17
  Once you go, when you're in your... I call it your flow state.
• 9:20
  Once you're in your flow state, anybody, once you're in your flow state, you don't want to be disrupted.
• 9:25
  You want to be able to just keep grinding through, like, because you're actually in a good place.
• 9:29
  Like, you're in your groove, you know?
• 9:31
  Like, you're feeling good.
• 9:33
  It's kind of like, bring more, you know?
• 9:35
  So...
• 9:37
  I get it.
• 9:39
  One thing I wanted to bring up is Stephanie's daughter was supposed to take photos for me.
• 9:45
  She gets to Arizona and she's sick.
• 9:48
  So the first day she attempts to take pictures and she got a bunch of great swimming pictures and we made a reel out of it and all that.
• 9:56
  But the next morning I get a text from Stephanie that her daughter's not going to make it.
• 10:03
  So I've shifted to, well, I better take some content.
• 10:08
  Yeah.
• 10:09
  So I haven't been out on the floor in over a year because I've let other people kind of do that.
• 10:18
  And the funny thing was, they let me have full floor access.
• 10:23
  I could go...
• 10:24
  out on the floor wherever, where the athletes were as close as I wanted, but you're between the crowd and the athlete.
• 10:32
  So you had to squat to take your pictures.
• 10:36
  And what did we just finish?
• 10:38
  Squat.
• 10:40
  Piece of cake.
• 10:42
  Love it.
• 10:44
  I was squatting all over the place.
• 10:46
  No issues.
• 10:47
  Um, getting down low, getting pictures, um, all that kind of stuff that really, really felt good.
• 10:53
  Yeah.
• 10:54
  Yeah.
• 10:55
  That's, I mean, it's, it's so crazy because when we think about how hard we are in ourselves with our performance in the gym, you know, or like what we wish we could do, you know, like, God, I wish I could be able to do like a hundred air squats unbroken or whatever it is.
• 11:13
  Like I should be able to do that.
• 11:14
  Or we, we think about all of these things, but we often neglect to think about how much our training to achieve those things is
• 11:23
  makes life so much easier.
• 11:25
  It really does.
• 11:26
  Like there's so many things in life that, you know, people don't realize that being fit.
• 11:31
  And in fact, yesterday on a webinar I did on fat loss for women over 40,
• 11:38
  one of the girls had mentioned, she's like, you know, somebody said to me that when I turn, cause she's like 38 is telling me that I'm going to be paying for all the stuff that I've done in my thirties and my twenties with all this weightlifting.
• 11:51
  And I'm like, I'll be honest, you pay the price more for not being active than you do for weightlifting.
• 11:59
  So
• 12:00
  But I'm happy that it pays off, you know, so it's good stuff.
• 12:03
  You know, you got to keep yourself moving.
• 12:06
  So back home, back into routine a little bit.
• 12:10
  How's recovery been since the travel?
• 12:12
  I know the time change.
• 12:13
  How's your sleep been?
• 12:18
  I think you're muted.
• 12:19
  You are muted.
• 12:25
  Okay, there we go.
• 12:27
  Sorry.
• 12:28
  It's been a while.
• 12:28
  Bruce jumps in the chat.
• 12:30
  I mute myself.
• 12:31
  I know, right?
• 12:32
  There's a correlation there.
• 12:36
  But anyway, sleep's been crap.
• 12:40
  Yeah.
• 12:41
  Trying to get back on the East Coast time zone.
• 12:47
  And I thought my sinuses would be better in the dry heat of Tempe, and they were not.
• 12:55
  Yeah.
• 12:57
  Well, sometimes they can make things even worse because it's so dry.
• 13:00
  It dries everything up.
• 13:03
  I could not get enough water.
• 13:05
  Yeah.
• 13:06
  And you can hear my voice is shot.
• 13:08
  Yeah, I can hear it.
• 13:10
  I live in Arizona.
• 13:13
  The first couple nights, okay.
• 13:15
  And then it got worse as we got there.
• 13:17
  Yeah.
• 13:19
  So the sinuses are still a big issue for you right now.
• 13:22
  Yeah.
• 13:23
  I mean...
• 13:26
  Like I can breathe through my nose.
• 13:28
  It's just, and I'm not going through like the tissues I was going through before and all that stuff.
• 13:34
  It's just at night, sometimes I get post-nasal drip and that's what causes everything.
• 13:41
  Yeah.
• 13:42
  When's your next follow-up to the doctor?
• 13:46
  Right after Christmas.
• 13:47
  Okay.
• 13:47
  Hopefully we'll get some more treatment there.
• 13:50
  So back home, have you been back to the gym today?
• 13:53
  No.
• 13:55
  No.
• 13:56
  Okay.
• 13:56
  Are you, did you work out today?
• 13:58
  I did work out yesterday because I took yesterday off.
• 14:02
  Oh, okay.
• 14:02
  Just to kind of like loosen up super light.
• 14:06
  Um, I did like a, like a 30, 20, 10, um, empty barbell clean and jerk and a pushup workout.
• 14:16
  Oh, cool.
• 14:19
  Did you make that up or did you get from Glarus?
• 14:21
  I just made it up.
• 14:22
  Gotcha.
• 14:23
  All right.
• 14:24
  Well, I feel like we have to get working on the conditioning month.
• 14:28
  So, you know, we started that a little bit.
• 14:30
  So whether we, you did the 20 minute test.
• 14:35
  Yes.
• 14:36
  And if anything, we'll just really focus on retesting the 20 minute test.
• 14:42
  And, but I, we have plenty of time for that.
• 14:44
  You're like, oh shit.
• 14:47
  But I do want to work on some endurance based stuff.
• 14:50
  So we'll kind of, I'll put together two more workouts for you for this week.
• 14:54
  One will be like mixed modal and one will be an assault bike workout.
• 14:57
  So you can have those to work in.
• 14:58
  And the thing about the assault bike guys that are so good is it does train your legs endurance wise, but it shouldn't leave you sore.
• 15:06
  Like it's kind of like a sled.
• 15:08
  where because you're not doing a negative contraction, you won't get sore from it.
• 15:12
  Now, you know, that's something that you guys can realize that you can, the salt bike is easy.
• 15:16
  The only thing that'll happen is sitting on a bike for too many, you know, it tightens up your hips a little bit, but sort of sitting too much.
• 15:22
  So yeah.
• 15:24
  Um, how about, I think I'm bringing it down here in the next day or two.
• 15:29
  Yeah, it's a good idea.
• 15:30
  It's, I think, I feel like it's, why not, right?
• 15:34
  Why not make it easier for you to do that?
• 15:36
  17 on Monday, next week.
• 15:38
  It's crazy.
• 15:39
  I mean, if I were you, I wouldn't even, because I don't even, do you guys have heater at the gym?
• 15:43
  They have heat there, yeah.
• 15:48
  Cause I know that when I was up in new England, they very rarely turned it on and it was like freezing inside the gym.
• 15:54
  You know, I'd be in layers and like, would have to like wait until I warmed up to get things, you know, done.
• 16:00
  Jody Lynn says she wants to do the workout virtually.
• 16:03
  So the engine engine month started with a 20 minute max calorie on an assault bike test.
• 16:11
  Yeah.
• 16:13
  Yeah.
• 16:13
  And then it kind of got derailed a little bit because of your travels, but that's okay.
• 16:19
  So we'll get on it this week.
• 16:21
  So no big deal.
• 16:22
  We can start, we can start with your first workout tomorrow.
• 16:25
  All right.
• 16:27
  So nutrition, are you back to tracking things since Arizona?
• 16:32
  Arizona.
• 16:35
  Nothing is logged yet.
• 16:36
  I did weigh everything today.
• 16:37
  I have it written down.
• 16:39
  I will start today.
• 16:40
  Okay, cool.
• 16:42
  Awesome.
• 16:43
  Had you weighed in at all or no?
• 16:45
  No.
• 16:46
  Okay.
• 16:46
  I wasn't sure if you had or not.
• 16:48
  Um, don't, you don't have to, you don't have to worry about that right now.
• 16:50
  At the end of the day, it's like the scale matters, but it doesn't matter so much when you know, there's probably not going to be much change or that the focus isn't about changing the scale.
• 17:00
  Like this past weekend, you know, your experience was more about like, obviously a big event that you guys want to be a bigger part of, um, and fueling your body, getting enough calories in feeling good, you know?
• 17:15
  Um,
• 17:16
  Sounds like you didn't really get to treat yourself to anything special, which I don't know what there is really special in Arizona.
• 17:22
  I guess the Mexican food, you know, so.
• 17:25
  So I did leave out one treat that we did.
• 17:27
  Okay.
• 17:29
  We went to Voodoo Donut.
• 17:31
  Oh, okay.
• 17:34
  And I'm always disappointed with donuts.
• 17:36
  I shouldn't ever go like out for donut.
• 17:39
  Yeah.
• 17:39
  Yeah.
• 17:40
  But it's been on like, it's on all the food channels and this place you should go to.
• 17:47
  And it was fun.
• 17:48
  And they, you know, they're famous for making a voodoo doll donut.
• 17:53
  That is, you put it, they put a pretzel stick through it like a voodoo doll.
• 17:57
  And the middle is raspberry jelly that looks like blood.
• 18:01
  Yeah.
• 18:02
  That's awesome.
• 18:02
  It's funny because when you said voodoo donut, I'm like, why do I feel like I know that name?
• 18:06
  But I wouldn't know.
• 18:10
  Arizona donuts.
• 18:12
  You know what I think it is, is I think that they might have, they're not a chain, are they?
• 18:18
  They're a small chain.
• 18:19
  I was going to say, I think that they have one of those at Universal Studios.
• 18:24
  Yeah, they do.
• 18:26
  They have one in the CityWalk area.
• 18:29
  That's where I remember them from.
• 18:31
  So is that the donut you tried, the Voodoo one, or did you try a different donut?
• 18:35
  I tried the Old Dirty Bastard donut.
• 18:38
  Okay.
• 18:39
  And what kind of a donut was that?
• 18:41
  It was a yeast donut with Oreos on top and hot fudge.
• 18:49
  You know what's funny is
• 18:52
  I don't, I think I'm more of a, I don't like a lot of stuff on my donuts.
• 18:57
  Like I'm more of a simple donut girl, like a glazed donut or something, you know?
• 19:03
  You know, it's funny because growing up, you know what my favorite donuts were, but we also didn't have, we never went to fancy places as a kid.
• 19:09
  Our donut shop was like Dunkin' Donuts, which you guys are like, that's like...
• 19:13
  That's like Kmart, right?
• 19:15
  It's like the crap of donuts.
• 19:16
  But I just loved those, the cake, the chocolate cake donut with the glazing on it.
• 19:21
  That was, those were my favorite.
• 19:23
  But, you know, even when I think about donuts, I'm very simple.
• 19:26
  I'd rather just have a glazed donut with like, or even a frosted donut, but very simple stuff.
• 19:33
  I like the spice flavors and stuff, but.
• 19:35
  So they have like, they have fun donuts, but they have like, it's called a yeast raised and it was like double the height of a regular yeast donut.
• 19:43
  Oh, wow.
• 19:45
  They have a Homer Simpson that's the pink donut from the... Yep.
• 19:52
  They're not sprinkles, but the dots, speckles on it.
• 19:56
  And then they had the Marshall Mathers, which is M&M's on it, because that's M&M's real name.
• 20:03
  Yeah.
• 20:03
  And they have a Captain Crunch one.
• 20:08
  And then, yeah, they have all – it's crazy stuff.
• 20:11
  I'm with Polly.
• 20:12
  They do have an apple fritter.
• 20:13
  I'm with Polly.
• 20:16
  I definitely am more like that, like the spice, the apple.
• 20:19
  That definitely would be more of my thing.
• 20:20
  Okay.
• 20:21
  Well, so I like that because when you travel, it is kind of fun to test out some of the local fare or something that you maybe don't get the hang of usually.
• 20:30
  So overall experience at Legends, you had a good time.
• 20:35
  Media coverage, you were able to kind of get what you wanted.
• 20:40
  Overall feeling...
• 20:41
  Because I like to talk to you about, you know, we talk a lot about like self-worth and such, especially when you're trying to grow.
• 20:47
  How did you feel in terms of like, I fit in here, I'm running the show, I'm doing my thing, crushing it versus like, I feel like I'm not getting what I need to be the person that I want to be here.
• 21:02
  So I think it was one of the best events I've ever been to.
• 21:08
  It was different because Jamie's a co-host of mine.
• 21:11
  She's a partner of mine.
• 21:13
  But she's competing and that is her sole focus.
• 21:17
  I was supposed to have a photographer.
• 21:19
  I really didn't for most of the weekend.
• 21:23
  So it was old school Scott weekend on his own doing every bit of the, the pieces and, um, part of me really enjoyed it.
• 21:37
  And part of me really realized how much I love the way it is now.
• 21:44
  Yeah.
• 21:46
  I say alone, but Holly, who's in the chat, freaking killed it.
• 21:54
  She's the rock star of this team.
• 21:59
  Those leaderboards that she puts out all the time, people think, well, that's cool.
• 22:03
  We get some information.
• 22:05
  But to the athletes, it means the world.
• 22:08
  It gives them something to share with their friends and family that wasn't provided to them by the event.
• 22:19
  You can go to Competition Corner and screenshot, but it doesn't look a tenth as good as Holly's version of the leaderboard.
• 22:27
  You know, I'm just going to give Holly some more prep or more props because Holly, also a client of mine, she's crushing it in her own nutrition journey.
• 22:37
  She is a very busy person.
• 22:40
  So for her to be taking the time to put that stuff together, I know is not easy and I know it takes time, but she is working her butt off.
• 22:51
  And so, and so I'm, I'm very happy that you get value out of it.
• 22:56
  And I think everybody,
• 22:58
  should be Holly.
• 22:59
  She's just, I don't even know what else to say.
• 23:01
  Like, cause she definitely is crushing it.
• 23:03
  And so it's not easy to be full time with every, just like you.
• 23:08
  So just running so many things and, and to take the time to do that stuff.
• 23:11
  So we appreciate it, Holly.
• 23:13
  So Corey was at MFC competing.
• 23:16
  He says, I have the leaderboards with my name on them that Holly made, saved on my phone for life.
• 23:24
  And I heard that from athlete after athlete after athlete after athlete.
• 23:29
  Jason Grubb went on and on about how cool it is that what Holly does.
• 23:35
  Yeah, that's great.
• 23:37
  Like, and so I cannot say enough amazing things about her.
• 23:41
  Um, and I'm, and I know she's crushing life, whatever she puts her mind to.
• 23:46
  I'm sure she's crushing.
• 23:47
  Yep.
• 23:48
  Um, very dedicated.
• 23:50
  So, yeah, I'm so blessed.
• 23:53
  Yeah.
• 23:54
  So blessed to have her.
• 23:56
  Um, all right.
• 23:57
  So looking at this week ahead, anything on the calendar besides being a busy work person?
• 24:05
  so now now the holidays begin yeah um so my the switzer family christmas is this weekend on saturday okay um it's small there's not much of us left um it's just my mom my nephew his wife me my wife and my daughter and her boyfriend what do you guys do what do you guys do on actual christmas day
• 24:33
  So my nephew goes with his wife to their family and I go and just hang out with my mom.
• 24:42
  Okay.
• 24:43
  Got it.
• 24:43
  So this is the weekend where you all get together and then you still get together with mom on Christmas day.
• 24:48
  Yeah.
• 24:49
  And my nephew lives in Columbus too.
• 24:51
  So my mom drives over to Columbus and we do it at his house.
• 24:55
  Oh, all right.
• 24:56
  Cool.
• 24:57
  Awesome.
• 24:58
  So this weekend's your small family thing.
• 25:01
  Um, how are you feeling in terms of nutrition leading up to that?
• 25:03
  You feel like you're in a good spot?
• 25:06
  Yeah.
• 25:07
  Yeah.
• 25:07
  I don't, I'm done with like the foods I'm craving right now are the healthy foods.
• 25:17
  And I just, I feel like I'm in a really good, good head space.
• 25:21
  Gotcha.
• 25:22
  What about, do you guys have any holiday traditional food that you plan on having this weekend or that are within your twice or family Christmas?
• 25:30
  My side of the family doesn't do traditional anymore because we've never liked dry Turkey.
• 25:36
  Um, and so my, my nephew is going to smoke a brisket and,
• 25:41
  Um, so we're, we're having brisket and, um, I think broccoli and cauliflowers aside, um, cause my nephew eats healthy too.
• 25:53
  Um, and then I will probably have, there'll probably be some sweets and stuff sitting around too.
• 25:58
  I'm assuming.
• 25:59
  Gotcha.
• 26:01
  Awesome.
• 26:01
  So I don't know the whole menu yet, but that's kind of the gist.
• 26:05
  Is your wife baking any cookies?
• 26:08
  So when I was at Legends, she went home to see her parents.
• 26:14
  Okay.
• 26:15
  And she made cookies with her mom.
• 26:16
  Okay.
• 26:18
  Now, last week we talked about making cookies and wasn't worth it.
• 26:22
  For her to make cookies with her mom, then that's worth it.
• 26:24
  Got it.
• 26:25
  That makes sense.
• 26:26
  That's why I was asking if she was doing any baking or not.
• 26:28
  So I thought, I originally thought you were going to tell me that, well, while you were at Legends, she was home baking cookies.
• 26:33
  But that makes more sense that she was with family.
• 26:37
  So, all right.
• 26:37
  So nothing really eventful.
• 26:39
  And honestly, just knowing how you did after Thanksgiving, like it's not even a thing.
• 26:44
  It's not like you have to stress about anything.
• 26:45
  So you kind of pick it right back up where you left off.
• 26:49
  um are you planning on once i'm through that like when i go to my mom's house and it's just her and i yeah like you know how it is my mom doesn't eat bad yeah so we we just hang out watch movies play games and eat whatever we want it's not right um it's not traditional anything got it yeah um what about are you planning on getting back into the gym this week are you going to be working out from home mostly
• 27:19
  Yeah.
• 27:19
  I plan on it.
• 27:20
  I, it's just yesterday getting home today, getting back to work, you know, trying to get back into just a schedule.
• 27:29
  Yep.
• 27:30
  Yeah.
• 27:30
  Do you, are you taking a day off from everything every week?
• 27:35
  Are you, are you working pretty much seven days of the podcast right now?
• 27:40
  Uh, right now I'm trying to take the weekends off from the podcast through the end of the year.
• 27:47
  That's good.
• 27:48
  Awesome.
• 27:48
  All right.
• 27:49
  When do you plan to weigh in again?
• 27:50
  As soon as I sleep through the night.
• 27:55
  Got it.
• 27:55
  I like that.
• 27:56
  Give yourself a little bit of that.
• 27:58
  So next week we'll plan on having an updated weight.
• 28:01
  I think that for this week, it should be about you just being back on track with consistency, proving to yourself that like you can get right back to a habit.
• 28:10
  Like the habit of tracking is routine when you're at home, just like the other things you got to do during your day that you don't like doing like quote unquote work meetings.
• 28:19
  Um, but you can do it again and get back on track with things.
• 28:22
  We'll see where things are at next week.
• 28:24
  Give you two, two workouts.
• 28:26
  If you end up getting in a third one, we can always throw a third one in for this week for you, for your engine work.
• 28:31
  Um, but I feel like, I feel like everything's going good right now.
• 28:36
  I feel like you're in a good spot.
• 28:38
  Yeah, I do too.
• 28:40
  Just need to get my voice back, um, and get to, uh, sleeping through the night again.
• 28:47
  Have you thought more about Waterpalooza yet?
• 28:52
  I think about it all the time.
• 28:53
  Am I closer to a decision?
• 28:55
  I don't know.
• 28:56
  You think about it when you walk outside.
• 28:58
  You're like, ooh, that warm Florida weather.
• 29:01
  I have a big meeting on Friday.
• 29:05
  Okay.
• 29:06
  And once I have that meeting, I'll be better equipped to answer that question.
• 29:13
  No travel planned, at least until next year sometime.
• 29:17
  Correct.
• 29:18
  Awesome.
• 29:19
  All right.
• 29:19
  So you're home.
• 29:20
  You're in a good spot right now.
• 29:22
  Because travel is really the only thing that ever really kind of gets you a little bit.
• 29:26
  But right now you're doing good.
• 29:30
  I love gumbo.
• 29:32
  I haven't had gumbo in years.
• 29:34
  I used to make gumbo with my grandfather.
• 29:36
  Really?
• 29:37
  My grandfather, my grandfather was such a good cook.
• 29:39
  He could cook so many different things.
• 29:41
  I, he never had a theme to his barbecues though.
• 29:45
  Like we would have the most random, we'd have gumbo, but we would have like other stuff too, like Italian food.
• 29:51
  Like he just would put together spread.
• 29:53
  So there'd be something there for everybody.
• 29:56
  But man, I haven't had gumbo in years.
• 29:58
  to tell one story about Corey.
• 30:00
  So I'm in at legends and one of his, uh, training camp partners was competing at legends, Roy VJ.
• 30:10
  And so I interviewed him and at the very end of the interview, I asked him about Corey and, uh,
• 30:19
  And he hit it just the way I wanted him to hit it.
• 30:22
  And I posted it out there and I was waiting for a text from Corey and I never got it.
• 30:28
  That's funny.
• 30:29
  That's funny.
• 30:30
  Yeah.
• 30:31
  Yeah, I'm excited.
• 30:32
  I think the Legends, it sounds like they did a great job.
• 30:35
  Sounds like some big names were there.
• 30:39
  You know, I'm excited to see what next year is going to look like with it now actually being the actual event for Masters for the games.
• 30:47
  So we'll see.
• 30:48
  So I like that.
• 30:50
  Jeffrey puts in Gumbo Jambalaya Prime Rib.
• 30:53
  I'm also, I'm not a big prime rib person.
• 30:56
  I'd much rather filet.
• 30:58
  That's just me.
• 30:59
  Yeah.
• 30:59
  I'd, I'd much rather have a good brisket.
• 31:02
  Yeah.
• 31:03
  Yeah.
• 31:03
  I'm not really, I don't know what it is about the prime rib.
• 31:06
  You know what it is?
• 31:07
  It just doesn't look, I think it's the way it looks.
• 31:10
  It doesn't look appealing to me.
• 31:11
  I know people think it looks good, but to me it doesn't look appealing and I like a rare steak and everything, but I just,
• 31:18
  I don't know what it is about it, but I also don't really eat ribeye steak either.
• 31:24
  So what's crazy is we always get off on food in the show.
• 31:29
  For a nutrition show, we talk about food a lot.
• 31:31
  It's exactly what it is.
• 31:33
  So at the bar I used to work at as a bouncer, they made us a prime rib sandwich.
• 31:41
  So they take the prime rib and shave it like roast beef and put on the bun.
• 31:46
  And then they put fresh horseradish sauce on it.
• 31:49
  Yep.
• 31:49
  Fresh horseradish.
• 31:51
  Yeah.
• 31:51
  And a little bit of mayo and put on there.
• 31:53
  Oh my gosh.
• 31:54
  Does it come with the sauce, the au jus?
• 31:57
  Is it like that?
• 31:58
  Like the beef au jus?
• 31:59
  You can get the dip.
• 32:00
  Yeah.
• 32:01
  Okay.
• 32:01
  So I've had that before.
• 32:02
  That is really good.
• 32:03
  I've had that.
• 32:03
  That's really good.
• 32:04
  Yeah.
• 32:04
  Much better than a regular roast beef sandwich.
• 32:07
  Yeah.
• 32:07
  This is a nutrition show, but food is nutrition, right?
• 32:11
  So I think that people think that the weight loss journey means that you can't be enjoying food or like eating food, right?
• 32:19
  Like your nutrition is more than just chicken and broccoli.
• 32:23
  It should definitely be including these things.
• 32:26
  I mean, you had a donut, like this is all part of it.
• 32:29
  Um, you know, we definitely want to make sure that like, that's, that's the goal, right.
• 32:33
  Is to have that flexibility.
• 32:35
  Um,
• 32:40
  For sure.
• 32:40
  Yeah.
• 32:42
  Yeah.
• 32:43
  Again, I have no pipes left and Eric actually says prime rib is too much work for not a lot of return.
• 32:50
  Yeah.
• 32:51
  I do agree with that.
• 32:53
  It is so fatty.
• 32:55
  Agreed.
• 32:55
  Yeah.
• 32:57
  Maybe that's what it is.
• 32:59
  I'm not a, I'm not like, I like a tenderloin.
• 33:02
  I like that kinds of steak.
• 33:04
  I'm not really the fatty, like I don't do filet really.
• 33:07
  I'm not sorry for like, I don't do revise really.
• 33:09
  You know, I just don't, I just growing up.
• 33:12
  I used to hate, I used to call it the grizzle.
• 33:14
  Like, Oh, I put like, it used to like gross me out, but you know, so, but, uh, Every time I hear the word gristle, I think of the old 96 or, uh, on, uh, the great outdoors.
• 33:28
  no when john candy has to oh yeah yeah yeah okay okay he's like i'm done and you're like nope the gristle and they made him eat the gristle to finish it john candy this is bringing me back oh man so all right well i feel like you're in a good spot i'm excited to see how we finish out the year um and comments keep rolling in it maybe you want to add comments too so
• 33:55
  Oh, Corey.
• 33:58
  I don't think we can be friends anymore is what Corey said.
• 34:01
  Corey, if you can change my mind, you can make me a ribeye and make it really good.
• 34:05
  And if I, maybe I'll change my mind, but I just, you know, I, I would much rather a filet, you know, it's just me.
• 34:15
  So.
• 34:17
  I love, I love ribeyes and filets.
• 34:19
  So I, I like the best of both worlds there.
• 34:22
  In fact, for Christmas, I want to do tenderloin.
• 34:24
  We normally do the traditional ham and turkey, but I want to do tenderloin this year.
• 34:31
  I'm like, it's just way expensive.
• 34:34
  But I think what I'm going to do is I'm just going to buy dinner and I'm going to have them bring the appetizers.
• 34:41
  Cheryl, I'll make you a ribeye that you'll want to write a song about.
• 34:44
  Okay.
• 34:45
  Definitely won't be singing it though because y'all don't want to hear me sing.
• 34:51
  Definitely don't want to hear me sing, for sure.
• 34:54
  Jay Bird says, I can make a ribeye that you would die for.
• 34:57
  And Eric Weiss says, I'm team Cheryl.
• 34:59
  I'm all about this.
• 35:00
  Hey, any guy that wants to come cook me dinner, just let me know.
• 35:04
  I mean, hey, you know, we can turn this into Scott's weight loss journey.
• 35:07
  Cheryl, find somebody to cook her dinner journey.
• 35:09
  It's fine with me.
• 35:10
  It's still nutrition related.
• 35:11
  You can do that.
• 35:13
  Cheryl's dating name you can make a new show Holly says they always do chicken noodle soup and chili that's different yeah I like that but yeah I don't know honestly our family is very traditional ham turkey all the basic stuff Thanksgiving and Christmas are almost identical that's why I think I might change things up a little bit and do a tenderloin so yeah
• 35:40
  A couple years ago, we gave up on the traditional on my side of the family.
• 35:44
  Yeah.
• 35:45
  And I love it.
• 35:47
  Yeah.
• 35:48
  Well, we started this show about me bitching about all my meetings and being in a bad mood.
• 35:53
  And a half hour later, I'm in a great mood because of this audience and this show.
• 35:59
  We love you all.
• 36:00
  Thank you so much for being here.
• 36:02
  And we'll catch everybody next week on Clydesdale Media Weight Loss Journey.
• 36:07
  Bye, guys.
• 36:09
  Uh, sure.
• 36:10
  In a second.
• 36:11
  Hi guys.
