Fasting dry and dropping 15 pounds in 44 hours - starts at 6:07 AFTER the Santa Clarita realtor Connor with Honor hour. · Connor with Honor: AI, Real Estate and Real Life

• 0:00
  SPEAKER_00: Is it already the 13th of March?
• 0:01
  SPEAKER_00: It is.
• 0:02
  SPEAKER_00: I'm Connor with Honor, your happy, humble realtor from Santa Clarita, California.
• 0:07
  SPEAKER_00: I wanted to give you the real estate news and updates.
• 0:09
  SPEAKER_00: There is some news on the spin cycle out there about lowering of interest rates and how a lot of the homeowners that purchased not too long ago were locked in at 8%.
• 0:18
  SPEAKER_00: Now they're getting some relief because interest rates are closer to 7%.
• 0:21
  SPEAKER_00: Again, that's great information to have, but never, ever, ever purchase a home dependent on future interest rate declines, especially if you're not out there with money to throw away in a way.
• 0:34
  SPEAKER_00: And if you're not an investor mindset, you have to be very careful.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: If you're purchasing something as your primary residence, I always tell my clients, go in as humble as possible, as relaxed, eat a lot of humble pie, don't bite off more than you can chew, and make sure that the properties you're looking at fit your criteria so you don't accept something that you didn't expect or didn't count on.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_00: So either be completely open and understand that you might not get exactly everything you want, or on the other side of a coin, don't give up until you do get everything you want.
• 1:09
  SPEAKER_00: Just explain to your agent your criteria and also your mindset when it comes to what you're willing to sacrifice in real estate and what you really need to have on the table so you can purchase the property with whatever factors you want to have.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_00: Now, talking about real estate news, I do know that we've been doing some local inventory, and I did make a change.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_00: If you go to Connorwithhonor.com, I'm gonna throw it up here, you're gonna see basically the screenshot of Connor with Honor.
• 1:37
  SPEAKER_00: Then at the very top, you're gonna see something called latest.
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_00: That's gonna be the latest listings for today.
• 1:43
  SPEAKER_00: And there's gonna be four new additions to the Santa Clarita market, and that was within the last 24 hours.
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_00: So we're gonna have four different ones.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: Something to look at, though, if you are purchasing real estate today, like I did for my clients.
• 1:56
  SPEAKER_00: A lot of times the insurance step, whenever you were looking for insurance on a property that somebody's gonna buy, and of course you need insurance, right?
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: So one of the things that's required by the loan, the lender, the people letting you borrow the money, is they want the improvement or the house or whatever they're loaning you money on as far as real estate goes, they want that to be protected.
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_00: So if there's a fire, a flood, or whatever it may be, that the residence is protected.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: Now, of course, here in Southern California, it seems like every neighborhood has something.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: We have earthquake zone, flood zone, fire zone.
• 2:27
  SPEAKER_00: There's lots of different zones out here.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_00: So one of the things you want to make sure of when you go through the process, you know what kind of zone your home is located within.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_00: That's not difficult to do because here in Southern California, most agencies report something called a natural hazards disclosure.
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_00: That's a report that's created and it's going to explain where the home happens to be.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: Even before that step, though, folks, it's not a bad idea as you're doing your due diligence right after your offer gets accepted.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: Make some calls to your insurance agent, maybe somebody that I know if you don't happen to have somebody that you use.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: More than likely, an insurance broker is going to be more nimble.
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_00: I've had regular real estate companies quote insurance, and they're definitely not as nimble as a real estate broker, as far as, excuse me, a real estate insurance broker because or insurance broker, period.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_00: They're able to pull on quite a few different sources of loan, or excuse me, of insurance products.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_00: I'm still stuck on the loan thing, but they're able to pull on different suppliers for insurance.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_00: So most times you can find this company maybe being pitted against this company and figure out that somebody has better coverage for maybe less money.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_00: But it's definitely something you're going to want to reach out to, an insurance agent, somebody that's versed in insurance and that can cover everything, because I've had it a couple different ways where insurance companies are telling me at a local level they can't write a policy till 30 days of investigation, and even longer than that.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_00: And then I've had another insurance company pull something off in 10 days.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_00: Again, very same property, just different requirements, and probably different insurance resources.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_00: So that's something to be aware of.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_00: Same thing in the lending world within real estate as a home buyer.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_00: Those mortgage brokers, my dad back in the day, would have said you want to stay away from them.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_00: You're going to get a better deal going directly to the source.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_00: That's not the case.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_00: In fact, a lot of different lenders can pull on money sources from hundreds of lending institutions.
• 4:28
  SPEAKER_00: Some of them aren't regular mainline banks either.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_00: Some are funds, hedge funds, those sorts of things.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_00: But there's a lot of different resources that people can pull on.
• 4:36
  SPEAKER_00: Just make sure you get the best advice and whomever you're listening to, they have your best interest at heart.
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_00: That's not hard to determine.
• 4:43
  SPEAKER_00: And all you have to do is pay a little bit of attention on how they speak with you, and most importantly, how they listen.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: There's listening.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: That's probably going to cut that out because I haven't removed all the spaces.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_00: So there's that.
• 4:55
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so let's get back into this.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_00: So as far as local inventory goes, I did, I'm going to throw up a screenshot here.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_00: You can see those latest numbers.
• 5:04
  SPEAKER_00: There's not very many on the market.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_00: I'll throw up a map just so you can see where those four are located here in numbers in Santa Crita Valley.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_00: I'll go ahead and save that and I'll drop that in here so you can see it.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: But as you can see, there's only four listings that have entered the market for sale in the last 24 hours.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: That's about normal, nothing shocking, nothing exciting.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: What we're really going to see, the new listings are going to more than likely be added from Wednesday to through Friday.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_00: That's going to be the majority of the new listings out there.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: I will post the latest link every day to the actual multiple listing service.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: You get there by going to Connorwithhonor.com.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_00: Up at the top, you'll see that latest tab on my website.
• 5:43
  SPEAKER_00: You can click on there, it'll direct you directly into the multiple listing service where you'll be able to see exactly what is new as of today.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_00: And then, of course, I'll post it again tomorrow and the next day.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so if you haven't looked in the 50 by 50 fasting, and we're about six minutes now, so I'm going to reach into this, talk about something that I'm have very close to my heart, where I was able to torch off an excess of 135 pounds of body fat through fasting.
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_00: And I also was able to get my hormones regulated where I was way out of kilter.
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_00: I had very low levels of testosterone, and I was able to get that fixed via a doctor, via great people that I can introduce anyone to, but fantastic folks, just to get your levels checked, that's super important, female or male, because I've seen a lot of changes with people that have out-of-kilter hormone levels.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_00: And in fact, with testosterone for a male, if it's too far out of kilter, you're going to end up being tired, lethargic, and you're going to end up not wanting to work out, you're going to end up eating horribly, and you're not going to really have a lot of drive.
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_00: So that's something to consider when you're looking and maybe trying to feel better.
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_00: See if there may be something physically wrong as far as inside.
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_00: Of course, if you're fat, that does definitely cause issues because when you're overweight in fat, the obesity causes an overabundance of estrogen admin.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_00: So you're really not doing yourself a favor when you are continuing to eat the things that are creating a surplus on your body, like that body fat.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: So watch out for that.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_00: You can see more information about this by going to my YouTube channel, youtube.com forward slash at, and then you put home muscle.
• 7:22
  SPEAKER_00: Boy, that was hard to get out.
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_00: Home muscle.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_00: So that's where you'll find me on as far as this particular channel goes on YouTube, and I'm doing a 50-day reset.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_00: I'm down to about 270 pounds.
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_00: That's a 15-pound loss in the last about 54 hours.
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_00: Some of that was dry.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_00: I did break the dry yesterday, and I do have that written down, so I'll publish that right now.
• 7:44
  SPEAKER_00: So you can see where I started back in the very beginning.
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_00: This is only going to be Sunday now.
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_00: So I'm doing a dry fast on purpose to try to torch off or to torch off 50 pounds of fat.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm going to give myself 50 days to do it.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_00: At the very beginning of every kind of diet or changing in your eating, you're going to see a massive drop of weight.
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_00: A lot of people attribute that to fat and say, oh my gosh, Connor, you lost basically 13 pounds.
• 8:11
  SPEAKER_00: And then they attribute that to fat within the first 32, 36 hours of a dry fast.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_00: That's not what that was.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_00: A majority of that's water.
• 8:20
  SPEAKER_00: Of course, there's going to be some fat.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_00: Of course there's going to be some energy exchange.
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_00: But also during that very beginning of the fasting process, you're switching fuel systems.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_00: So if you're not keto at the beginning, if you haven't been eating ketogenic type food and you're in, not in ketosis, and you happen to be a sugar burner primarily, you're going to be burning a lot of the stuff you're bringing in.
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_00: To make that switch over to burning the stored body fat that's on your frame, that adipose tissue, you have to do that very purposefully.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: And that means you're going to have to either quit eating carbohydrates and sugar, or you could also do it with fasting.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_00: And there's dry fasting as well, which gets you into that level even faster.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_00: But it's really something to be careful about, even with regard to water fasting as well.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_00: Make sure you seek your doctor's advice, find out if this is something you should be doing.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_00: If you're taking medicines, that's something else to be very considerate of because you never know what is going to happen if, in fact, you don't have any food being digested and you're empty and here yet you're popping pills.
• 9:24
  SPEAKER_00: It's going to have a different effect, so you definitely want to seek your doctor's advice before you do that.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_00: Now let's talk about the familia element, the family element when it comes to fasting.
• 9:33
  SPEAKER_00: A lot of people use this as their uh their in fact.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_00: And that's something that you probably shouldn't look at fasting for, and this is what I mean.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_00: You have people in your residence that are probably given up on you trying to lose weight.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_00: They're probably sick and tired of all the times that you try to go out there and embark on some new nouveau diet plan.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_00: And not eating is definitely going to add a little bit of salt to that wound.
• 9:55
  SPEAKER_00: In fact, not eating for a particular period of time, for long periods of time, impact those that are closest to you, especially if you've built a life around food and feasting and fasting, food and feasting and eating and drinking, and that is where your fun happens to come in.
• 10:12
  SPEAKER_00: Now, stop that for a moment and see what ends up happening.
• 10:16
  SPEAKER_00: It could be detrimental to the relationship that you happen to be in a relationship.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_00: It could affect your family, it could affect other people.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_00: This is something in the fasting world that really isn't talked about, but it is a big deal, especially when you have a majority of the world thinking if you skip a couple meals, you're going to go into this deep starvation mode, crash your metabolism, and create all sorts of physical ailments for you for no good reason.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_00: You should have just kept eating.
• 10:42
  SPEAKER_00: Unfortunately, that's really not true.
• 10:44
  SPEAKER_00: But again, you need to do your research, talk to your doctor, and see, in fact, what happens with your metabolism when you actually stop eating for a longer period of time.
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_00: It actually goes up.
• 10:53
  SPEAKER_00: But do your investigations and check that out.
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_00: As far as caloric restriction diets, again, with any type of diet, you're going to expect potential muscle loss.
• 11:02
  SPEAKER_00: But again, I looked at that back in the day when I torched off those 135 pounds.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: After I got my hormones in check, I told myself, you know what, I could care if I lose some.
• 11:12
  SPEAKER_00: I know that I want to lose a majority of fat, and that's what happened, and that's where I'm at.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_00: So that's something that you might want to consider.
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_00: These next 50 pounds are probably not going to be as easy as those 135.
• 11:23
  SPEAKER_00: And yes, I did put some back on purpose so I could do this deletion of fat and show that it's very much possible, living a good, healthy lifestyle.
• 11:34
  SPEAKER_00: Don't let the fasting become a sword for you.
• 11:37
  SPEAKER_00: Don't let it become something that you wield very strongly and show your ability to persevere.
• 11:44
  SPEAKER_00: And don't go out there and start bragging to everybody that you're on this long fast.
• 11:49
  SPEAKER_00: Because, video aside, it doesn't help.
• 11:52
  SPEAKER_00: I've gotten my mindset in such a place that when people don't like me doing it or get upset that I'm doing it or have issues with this, it doesn't matter to me because I know that it works and they've seen the results.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_00: So they really stay away.
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_00: It was at the very beginning that created the majority of the problems in life because it's like really, you really do something else now.
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, keto, you've tried all these different diets, you've tried this, you've tried that, and now you're actually going to stop eating.
• 12:19
  SPEAKER_00: Ha, who would have thought?
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_00: And what kind of problem is that going to create for us?
• 12:22
  SPEAKER_00: You know, there are times that people cook, there are certain times that people go grocery shopping, there's certain times that people might sit down with others to eat and break bread.
• 12:30
  SPEAKER_00: And when you're fasting, it doesn't happen.
• 12:33
  SPEAKER_00: Consider all these things before doing something so powerful, something so life-changing.
• 12:38
  SPEAKER_00: Just make sure that you're very careful and you ease into it gently, unless you don't want to, and then just slam that door shut and move on and do your thing.
• 12:45
  SPEAKER_00: I'm Connor with Honor.
• 12:47
  SPEAKER_00: Have a great day.
• 12:47
  SPEAKER_00: We'll talk to you soon.
• 12:48
  SPEAKER_00: Over now.
