0:35
what happens when a chess
0:36
piece gets run over by a
0:38
hockey puck now we're not
0:41
really here for that yeah
0:43
we're here for the journey
0:45
that is my weight loss and
0:47
my fitness journey um and
0:49
I'm here with my nutrition
0:50
coach cheryl nasso and but
0:52
with that I in that
0:55
scenario I would be the
0:56
hockey puck running over the pond
0:58
Yeah, I just, I just happened to,
1:00
that was my first time seeing it.
1:02
And I'm just like,
1:02
it's hard not to talk about
1:03
the CrossFit because it's just like, it's,
1:07
it's CrossFit Christmas season.
1:08
It's CrossFit Christmas season.
1:10
Well, sort of, kind of, you know,
1:12
cause our, our, our season's so long.
1:14
It's not like a month, you know,
1:16
it's just the beginning,
1:17
but it's the time where all
1:19
the funny stuff comes out.
1:21
So we're definitely gonna
1:23
have to do some CrossFit
1:24
talk today a little bit because I
1:26
if I was listening correctly,
1:28
you had planned on doing the workout.
1:32
Is that right?
1:33
No, I was, I was like,
1:36
is he really going to do that to himself?
1:39
I was listening to the
1:40
Thursday night talk.
1:41
And I think you mentioned
1:42
maybe doing it for just to
1:44
put a score in.
1:45
And I'm like,
1:46
that's what everybody wanted me to do.
1:48
Yeah.
1:50
I did not succumb to the peer pressure.
1:53
Um,
1:57
And actually, so rewind and actually my,
2:01
here goes my internet again.
2:03
What the heck?
2:05
Um, so I'm at one dot.
2:09
If, if I start breaking up,
2:11
you'll have to take over for a minute.
2:13
Um, but we need to rewind back to,
2:16
I had the procedure done
2:19
since our last talk.
2:20
Right.
2:21
But that's why I just wanted to,
2:22
we're going to go into that.
2:23
But I was like,
2:24
we're going to end up getting it.
2:25
But I'm like,
2:26
please tell me you didn't do
2:27
the workouts.
2:28
I'm happy with it.
2:29
Could I have grabbed a 50-pound dumbbell,
2:31
snatched it in a one?
2:34
Yes, I could have done that.
2:35
Yeah.
2:35
But is that really the
2:36
spirit of doing the open?
2:37
Yeah.
2:38
And should that really count
2:39
for doing the opening and
2:44
keeping my streak alive?
2:46
Yeah.
2:46
Probably not.
2:47
It is what it is.
2:49
So yeah, let's rewind a little bit.
2:52
Hopefully your internet
2:54
doesn't mess up too much.
2:56
I kind of know you had the procedure.
3:00
Things went well.
3:03
But fill us in a little bit on things.
3:05
I know that you had a little
3:07
post-procedure tattoo on
3:10
your chest that hopefully is gone now.
3:14
But you want to fill us in a
3:15
little bit on it?
3:16
Yeah, so I went in for the procedure.
3:20
It was a crazy weather night
3:22
in Columbus and Ohio the night before.
3:26
Tornadoes touched down.
3:30
Lots of stuff all over the state.
3:32
Luckily, our house was not affected.
3:35
We were able to get to the
3:36
hospital because I didn't
3:38
need that extra stress.
3:40
We went in.
3:41
Everything went pretty well.
3:42
The only thing that kind of
3:43
was a hiccup and it was
3:44
kind of funny is...
3:46
They put the IV in.
3:47
I go back to like where
3:49
they're going to do the procedure.
3:51
And remember,
3:51
they're going to do the scope first.
3:53
So they're getting ready to put me under.
3:54
I meet the anesthesiologist.
3:57
They're like,
3:57
I'm going to put this stuff in.
3:59
You're going to feel drowsy.
4:01
They put it in.
4:02
Nothing.
4:05
Wide awake.
4:07
looking um looking at the
4:10
them like this isn't
4:11
working here into the
4:16
career oh we're losing you
4:21
I hate this it's all right um so anyway
4:28
the vein correctly.
4:29
Therefore,
4:29
the medicine did not go in and
4:34
did not put me to sleep.
4:35
So they had to put in another one in,
4:39
in the surgical room and then put,
4:44
then shoot the anesthetic
4:46
into the new IV.
4:48
And then heard a whooshing
4:51
sound like the ocean and out I went.
4:54
Got it.
4:55
So,
4:56
If y'all missed that,
4:57
sounds like his first try
5:01
at going under didn't go so well.
5:02
They had to redo it.
5:04
Got it.
5:04
He went under.
5:05
Boom.
5:07
Outcome of the procedure.
5:09
Heart back in rhythm.
5:12
Everything looked good.
5:13
What did the doc say?
5:17
Everything looked good.
5:19
Everything went well.
5:21
It took two shocks to get me back.
5:27
And then they were very
5:30
happy with all of that.
5:31
I went to recovery, woke up.
5:33
They gave me all my instructions.
5:38
And then they told me that I
5:39
may feel a burning
5:40
sensation on my chest and
5:43
my back just to use aloe.
5:49
Didn't even give it.
5:49
Couldn't feel anything.
5:51
Got home and actually went
5:53
out to bed that night.
5:54
My chest started to burn.
5:56
And then when I looked, I...
5:58
had what looked like a hot iron hit.
6:01
Someone had just like stuck to my chest.
6:03
It's where the was to shock me.
6:06
That's crazy.
6:07
That's crazy.
6:08
Well, I'm happy to hear that now.
6:09
When is your appointment
6:10
with your cardiologist?
6:13
Uh, it's in March.
6:16
Um, this is March, I guess.
6:18
Yeah.
6:18
Uh, like March 20th.
6:20
Okay.
6:21
All right.
6:22
So, and when is your,
6:24
your next PCP appointment?
6:29
Uh, it'll be a week from Friday.
6:31
All right.
6:33
So my question or my,
6:36
my hope for you was that
6:38
when you left the procedure
6:40
that you were kind of given
6:41
some kind of a check Mark
6:45
as to what you're cleared
6:46
to do in terms of activity.
6:47
And mostly like,
6:49
are you able to start walking, moving,
6:52
making that not getting you
6:53
back into CrossFit?
6:55
And I know that you had
6:56
mentioned that they didn't tell you that,
6:57
but that means that we're
6:58
waiting now until the 20th
7:00
before we can figure out
7:00
what you're cleared for.
7:03
No, I talked to them.
7:06
They really just wanted like
7:07
48 hours of letting the heart rest.
7:11
And then all weekend,
7:14
because the Arnold was here,
7:15
I kept walking to try to
7:17
see like what my stamina was with that.
7:21
And it wasn't good.
7:22
Like I just,
7:23
and it wasn't my lungs or my heart.
7:25
It was my back and my
7:29
my knees and like everything
7:31
just was sore.
7:32
Yeah.
7:33
And then the other thing
7:34
that happened is now that
7:36
the heart is pumping correctly,
7:38
it's trying to get rid of a
7:39
lot of fluid and my,
7:42
my sinuses stuffed up with it,
7:45
trying to get rid of all
7:46
the toxins going on.
7:49
Yeah.
7:51
So yesterday was the first
7:52
day I felt good.
7:54
um like really good other
7:56
than the day of the
7:57
procedure the day of the
7:58
procedure I felt the best
8:00
until yesterday yesterday I
8:02
actually did a mini workout
8:04
of uh 15 12 9 sandbag
8:09
deadlifts and uh assault
8:12
bike okay at like a lower
8:14
pace though but super low pace yes okay
8:18
I gotcha.
8:19
All right.
8:20
Watching my watch,
8:21
making sure my heart rate
8:23
didn't get like too, too high.
8:26
Okay.
8:27
I gotcha.
8:29
Okay.
8:30
So I think that the next
8:32
thing is like a lot of that fluid.
8:34
I know that you're feeling really heavy,
8:37
but I think that the next
8:38
thing is I'd like to get
8:39
your steps up to like 7k a day.
8:43
Like that's got to start to
8:44
happen right now.
8:45
You're at about three ish thousand.
8:49
so let's get them up to 7k a
8:51
day that's going to start
8:52
to build some endurance
8:53
that's starting your
8:55
journey back to working out
8:56
again like the 15 12 9 is
8:59
great but I'd honestly I'm
9:00
going to be honest scott
9:02
that is least beneficial
9:03
for you than just getting
9:05
up and moving throughout
9:05
your day and what's more
9:07
important in your workouts
9:08
is like you actually doing
9:10
some stretching some
9:11
strength work and not
9:14
worrying about getting your
9:15
heart rate up like
9:16
The bike is a nice touch,
9:17
but it's really about
9:19
getting you just kind of
9:19
back into regular consistency again.
9:22
it just was really nice.
9:23
I just was in the garage.
9:25
It was just more get rid of some boredom.
9:28
Yeah.
9:28
And the walking is, is great.
9:32
Um, but my, but I'm feeling it muscularly.
9:35
Yeah.
9:36
The fatigue is exactly what
9:39
I'm doing is I'm hitting fatigue.
9:41
So I'm hoping to get further,
9:42
but this was just a way to
9:43
break it up yesterday with
9:45
just something else.
9:47
100% love it.
9:48
But what I'm saying is like
9:49
the walking matters more.
9:51
Like that's where, like,
9:53
if you're getting that
9:54
fatigue while you're walking,
9:56
we got to build the endurance up.
9:57
Like that's, so that's why I like,
9:59
we're going to just start
10:00
to get to seven.
10:01
My goal is like,
10:02
if you have two or three
10:03
days at seven K that's two
10:05
or three days higher at seven K,
10:07
you know?
10:08
Um, I don't care how you do it.
10:10
You can break it up, you know,
10:11
10 minutes in the morning,
10:12
10 minutes after we go for a
10:14
30 minute walk after work, you know,
10:16
like whatever, you know,
10:17
like take your dog out at lunchtime, like,
10:20
you know, maybe make your,
10:21
and you might have to take breaks.
10:23
That's okay.
10:24
And I know that feels like shit.
10:26
Hell,
10:26
I'm okay with you doing farmer's walks.
10:28
If you want to make it more interesting,
10:30
throw some farmer's walks in there,
10:31
throw some sandbag walks in there.
10:33
Like that's a way to get steps in.
10:34
That's, you know, more CrossFit based,
10:36
but that's really going to help.
10:38
you know, yeah,
10:39
you can totally jump on the
10:40
bike and do 20 to 30 minutes.
10:41
It's also fine,
10:43
but it's not going to be
10:44
the same as getting your
10:45
body used to bearing your load again.
10:47
And that's really what we
10:48
have to start doing.
10:50
Yeah.
10:52
I, again, I agree with you.
10:54
I think yesterday was the
10:59
first day that was possible.
11:01
Yep.
11:01
That's awesome.
11:02
Yeah.
11:03
I'm on the way.
11:04
Yeah,
11:05
that's why I'm giving you action steps,
11:09
not telling you that you
11:10
didn't do a good job
11:11
because you did a good job.
11:13
You did a good job.
11:14
So nutrition this week,
11:17
as I was looking back,
11:19
looks pretty darn good.
11:22
You know, everything...
11:24
It looks like you've really
11:25
made some pretty good changes.
11:27
Your carb intake the last
11:29
couple of days has been pretty low.
11:30
And funny because you had
11:33
mentioned that you were really hungry.
11:36
And then like the last couple of days,
11:39
you've been a little bit low.
11:40
So maybe your appetite's
11:41
been a little bit off or
11:42
has it just been regulating
11:44
itself a little bit more?
11:47
So I think it's a part of that.
11:49
The body's draining everything.
11:51
And, uh, some,
11:53
that is my stomach is a
11:55
little queasy when,
11:56
when that's happening at times.
11:58
So there are times I'm like
11:59
super hungry and then it
12:01
goes away for a while and
12:02
then it comes like, uh,
12:05
but today I'm back to being
12:06
really hungry.
12:07
Yeah.
12:08
Well, your nutrition looks.
12:11
like you're dialed in,
12:12
like I see breakfast, lunch, dinner,
12:14
snack.
12:15
Um, you're typically eating one snack.
12:17
Fat intake is, is much better.
12:18
You're definitely getting, um, that down.
12:21
And I, I see good food quality.
12:23
I see that you're eating vegetables, um,
12:27
at your meals, which is all good.
12:29
So how has your gut been?
12:30
Uh, pretty good.
12:33
Um,
12:38
a little gassy this morning
12:39
was the first time that came back.
12:41
Um,
12:42
but it's kind of got away now this
12:44
afternoon.
12:45
Gotcha.
12:46
Yeah.
12:46
You've really got a pretty
12:47
good routine with your food right now.
12:49
Um, you know,
12:51
your breakfast tends to be a
12:52
little bit heavier in the
12:53
fat because your eggs and bacon, you know,
12:56
that's really the main thing,
12:57
which isn't a bad thing.
12:58
Cause you tend to make it up
12:59
later in the day,
13:01
as long as you're able to control, um,
13:04
The bacon, the bacon was rare and it was,
13:06
and it was turkey bacon.
13:07
Oh no, no, no.
13:08
You're, you're, you're fine.
13:09
You're, you're,
13:09
your breakfast is totally great.
13:11
When I say eggs and bacon, yeah, it was,
13:12
it's turkey bacon.
13:13
Like it's good.
13:15
Um, but, um,
13:16
as long as you can control the
13:17
fat at dinner time, it looks great.
13:20
In honor of Corey,
13:21
I'm doing a and Dewey
13:24
chicken sausage with my, um,
13:27
with my breakfast this week.
13:28
Yeah.
13:28
Your fiber intake is looking better.
13:31
Um,
13:32
Let me just see.
13:34
You know,
13:34
you're getting over 30 grams most
13:36
days now, which is good.
13:39
Some days a little bit lower.
13:40
And just to get my protein in,
13:47
like my breakfast has to be that.
13:50
Like it has to be a meat.
13:52
Yeah, it should be.
13:53
With eggs to get me to where
13:56
I need to be protein wise.
13:57
Well,
13:57
what you can do is you can go one egg
14:00
and egg whites.
14:02
And that will save you some fat.
14:04
If you want to make sure
14:04
that you have more fat
14:05
later on in the day,
14:06
if you're fine eating lower
14:08
fat later in the day, that's fine.
14:10
But I always recommend doing
14:11
one egg or two eggs and
14:13
then doing egg whites to
14:14
kind of get more protein for less fat.
14:17
Like that's an easy way to
14:18
bump up your protein.
14:20
Um, just to hit a couple of comments,
14:22
a wide zombie skin tone, face,
14:24
everything looks great.
14:26
Yeah.
14:26
I've noticed even like some
14:28
of the bloating out of my faces is left.
14:31
Um,
14:34
And I, yeah, I feel so much better.
14:36
Um, Corey says, uh, through God,
14:39
all things are possible.
14:40
So jot that down.
14:41
Uh, it's actually on my arm, right, right,
14:44
right there.
14:46
Just so you know, I thought, uh,
14:48
I thought what zombie was
14:49
talking about me.
14:51
Oh, he talked about you earlier.
14:53
If you want to go back.
14:54
Oh, he did.
14:55
Uh, Cheryl is looking extra hot today.
14:58
Oh yeah.
14:59
It's cause I just got
14:59
finished working out.
15:00
I got my post-workout glow.
15:01
And then Corey said Hot
15:02
Librarian Cheryl is my favorite Cheryl.
15:05
I'm actually, you know,
15:06
it's funny is I didn't know
15:08
how to pick up lockers,
15:10
but I've been wearing them.
15:12
And I do think that they are
15:13
helping me because I have a
15:14
lot of screen time.
15:15
I do a lot of time looking at my computer.
15:17
And if anything,
15:18
I feel like I'm not maybe
15:20
because they're on my head.
15:21
I'm not squinting as much
15:23
and like doing that when I'm doing stuff.
15:25
So I'm going to keep wearing them.
15:27
So yeah.
15:29
You know, it brings people on.
15:30
I would love that.
15:31
I actually do free consultations.
15:34
I honestly,
15:35
because before somebody
15:37
actually marries me as a coach,
15:41
lack of better terms,
15:42
I want to make sure that we
15:43
are going to connect, you know, like.
15:45
It's not going to work if we
15:46
don't like each other.
15:47
So they got to like me.
15:48
I got to like them.
15:49
Um, that's the most,
15:51
I think it's a great idea.
15:52
Uh,
15:53
cause I think the consultation is
15:54
something people should see,
15:55
but you'd have to have the
15:57
right person to do that
16:00
because that would be,
16:01
you're very vulnerable in
16:02
that first consultation.
16:04
Yeah.
16:05
I could,
16:06
I could maybe think about doing that.
16:08
Well, I'll think about that for sure.
16:11
One time per person, obviously.
16:12
Yeah.
16:13
I'm down.
16:13
I could, I could do something like that.
16:16
All right.
16:16
So going back to your nutrition,
16:18
let's get back onto Scott here.
16:19
So we're still a little bit
16:22
like the fiber is a work in progress.
16:24
But the other thing that I
16:24
think it could be is things like,
16:27
you know, like when you log your potatoes,
16:29
I think you're getting more
16:30
fiber from those because
16:32
you're logging them as air fried potatoes,
16:34
which it looks pretty accurate.
16:36
But if the entry that you're
16:38
choosing doesn't have a
16:41
fiber accounted in it,
16:42
then you're not going to see it.
16:44
Little things like that could be.
16:46
part of the reason why,
16:47
just something I was just
16:48
taking a look at actually
16:49
while I was on my computer,
16:49
because I did notice that.
16:52
And I think that what you're
16:53
logging is right.
16:54
It's just a matter of like,
16:55
is the fiber right?
16:57
So,
16:58
and you're not eating a whole bunch of
17:00
carbs.
17:01
So that's also the reason
17:03
why your fiber is low.
17:05
A couple of foods you could
17:06
add in that are going to
17:07
give you more fiber and
17:08
also a little bit better
17:10
fats is avocado and raspberries.
17:16
You hate raspberries.
17:17
Raspberries are so high in fiber.
17:20
Another good, let me look.
17:22
I think blackberries are almost as good,
17:24
but I know that raspberries
17:27
have so much fiber in them.
17:30
I think there's like 12
17:30
grams in just a cup.
17:32
Blackberries, pineapple, no, not pineapple,
17:36
pomegranate.
17:39
I really think that
17:40
raspberries are the best.
17:41
I don't like, do you like pomegranate?
17:43
Love it.
17:44
that's another good one
17:45
passion fruit I've been
17:47
eating pineapple the last
17:48
two days I've been eating
17:50
apples I've been yeah um
17:55
guava I don't see these
17:57
some of these fruits I
17:58
don't really eat like
18:00
blackberries are good so
18:02
guava fruit is good prunes
18:05
I don't eat prunes
18:08
Avocado is probably one of
18:09
the best and it looks like passion fruit.
18:13
Believe it or not,
18:13
one cup of passion fruit
18:15
has 24 grams of fiber in it.
18:18
That's crazy.
18:20
I don't even know.
18:20
I've never had passion fruit.
18:25
Oh, I lost you audio wise.
18:30
You're muted.
18:36
Can you hear me, Cheryl?
18:42
Oh, I'm muted.
18:43
There we go.
18:44
I just unmuted you.
18:45
That was weird.
18:47
I could not hear you.
18:48
Yeah.
18:50
You, you muted for some reason.
18:53
Oh, anyways, I was saying,
18:54
did you hear me say that
18:55
passion fruit has 24 grams of fiber?
18:58
That's insane.
18:59
That's a lot of fiber,
18:59
but that will really help
19:01
with everything.
19:01
So how about your blood sugar?
19:04
So it's today was at one 42 and
19:08
Okay.
19:08
So it's about the same.
19:09
I think if you start walking
19:11
a little bit more,
19:12
you're going to be able to
19:13
start seeing that blood
19:14
sugar go down too.
19:15
So when we talk about insulin sensitivity,
19:18
I talked about the
19:19
importance of controlling calories.
19:20
Yeah, but that will help.
19:21
Just the whole picture.
19:22
So when I finished the surgery,
19:24
it was like 160.
19:26
So it's come down 20 points in a week.
19:30
Okay.
19:31
That's good.
19:32
Average.
19:33
So like it was 160 averaging every day.
19:35
Yeah.
19:37
Surgery.
19:37
Okay.
19:38
And now it's okay.
19:39
Cause I always like to look at trends.
19:40
Like one day it's 160, one day it's 140,
19:43
or is it consistently 140?
19:44
That's good.
19:46
So I love that it's coming down.
19:47
And I think, like I said, once we,
19:49
once you start walking more
19:50
and moving more throughout your day,
19:52
that's going to help.
19:53
How's your sleep been?
19:55
Um,
19:56
it's kind of slid a little bit this week,
19:59
but it's more because of my
20:00
sinuses than anything else.
20:02
Like I wake up stuffed up and,
20:05
and like Nick wad zombie
20:08
sent me an apnea machine,
20:10
but my nose had been so congested.
20:12
Like I try it and I,
20:14
I can't breathe through my
20:15
nose till that clears up.
20:17
Yeah.
20:17
I gotcha.
20:19
Um, and then in terms of what was it?
20:21
I just had a thought about that sleep.
20:23
Oh, appetite.
20:24
So you mentioned that you're
20:26
obviously a little bit more hungry today.
20:27
How about cravings?
20:28
Anything like that?
20:29
You getting any cravings for anything?
20:33
Um, I don't think so.
20:38
Yeah.
20:38
Because your nutrition looks great.
20:41
I mean,
20:41
I don't think you guys ate out last week.
20:43
It looks like you guys ate at home.
20:45
The only time I ate out was
20:47
Saturday night.
20:50
And you had a burger.
20:53
It was a meatloaf.
20:55
Oh, I gotcha.
20:56
But I asked the ingredients
20:58
and it was just.
21:01
And green beans.
21:02
Okay.
21:04
Well, yeah, I mean,
21:05
I think things are looking good.
21:06
So what do you have in terms
21:08
of anything coming up this
21:09
week in terms of doctors, social stuff,
21:11
anything?
21:12
Nothing.
21:14
Nothing.
21:15
Did you end up going to the Arnold?
21:17
No, no.
21:19
I just,
21:19
I knew I wasn't going to be able to be,
21:22
my body couldn't take it.
21:24
Yeah.
21:24
It's a lot of walking.
21:25
And I have,
21:27
I have other things I have to
21:29
do this year that I need to be ready for.
21:31
Right.
21:32
And the Arnold is just a blip for me.
21:35
So I need Jamie was there.
21:37
Charlie was there.
21:38
Cat was there.
21:39
They all, they did all that stuff.
21:43
And I had to, I just let them.
21:45
I gotcha.
21:47
Um, so I mean, how do you feel this year?
21:50
Not doing the open?
21:51
Are you okay with it?
21:52
Or do you feel like you're missing out?
21:54
Uh, for the most part, I'm okay with it.
21:57
Um,
21:58
when we talked about it on the round
21:59
table and how it went, you know,
22:01
I miss out on sharing in the misery.
22:03
Um, but yeah, I, I just,
22:09
I have to do what's right
22:10
for me for this year.
22:12
so that I'm ready come semifinal time,
22:16
games time, masters games,
22:20
to be able to do what I need to do.
22:22
And what is your season
22:23
looking like as we're looking ahead?
22:25
Because right now I feel
22:26
like we're heading to the
22:28
green on everything.
22:31
And I'm going to be honest,
22:33
this year I don't think
22:34
we're going to take a break.
22:35
I don't think that we're
22:36
going to be breaking
22:37
through semifinals and games.
22:39
I think that this year is
22:40
the year where we kind of
22:42
keep things dialed in and
22:44
keep working because I
22:45
think that that's something
22:46
that we have to,
22:48
you've had a pretty rough
22:50
start of the year and we're
22:52
just going to be kind of
22:53
getting into where like
22:54
things are into a groove.
22:56
I want to keep that stuff
22:57
going and obviously not be hard on you,
22:59
but what's your, did you guys decide on,
23:01
are you still looking for
23:02
sponsorships in terms of travel plans?
23:06
Yep.
23:07
Okay.
23:07
All right.
23:08
So nothing in the books yet?
23:10
Nope.
23:11
Okay.
23:12
Gotcha.
23:12
But you are doing coverage.
23:14
Yeah.
23:15
It just may be from here.
23:17
Yeah.
23:17
Are you doing coverage?
23:18
Any athletes this year?
23:21
Um, I don't think so.
23:22
Yeah.
23:24
I mean,
23:25
I may pick one or two to do if we
23:27
can go to a semifinal.
23:28
Um, but with that up in the air,
23:30
I didn't want to make
23:31
people commit something.
23:33
I didn't know I couldn't commit.
23:34
I could commit.
23:36
I gotcha.
23:36
Yeah.
23:36
Yeah.
23:37
Well, then, I mean, good.
23:38
I feel like we're in a good
23:39
spot right now.
23:40
And how is the wife doing?
23:43
Is she doing good?
23:44
She's happy that you're
23:44
feeling better probably?
23:46
Yeah,
23:47
and she's been eating what I've been
23:49
eating, so we're really on the same page.
23:52
She's doing really well with it.
23:56
Hell, she's been walking more than me.
23:59
She's taken over the dog walking all day.
24:01
Has that been helpful for
24:02
you at dinnertime?
24:04
Yes.
24:05
Okay.
24:05
Good.
24:06
Awesome.
24:07
Um,
24:08
other things like you guys can try and
24:09
play around with for dinnertime meals is,
24:12
um, you know,
24:13
I'm not sure if she likes
24:15
pastas and stuff, but there are like,
24:17
you know,
24:17
when you're looking for high fiber foods,
24:19
look for like, um,
24:21
there's a pasta that I like
24:22
to recommend for people
24:23
called carbonata and it's a
24:24
higher protein pasta, higher fiber pasta,
24:28
um,
24:29
dream fields makes a higher fiber pasta,
24:31
um,
24:32
Those are all things that
24:33
you guys can use to help make meals and,
24:36
you know,
24:37
that she could obviously still use.
24:38
And it's just making simple swaps.
24:40
Like if you normally use a white pasta,
24:42
using one of those pastas,
24:44
it's going to help a little bit.
24:45
Or, you know, if she normally uses,
24:47
you know, whatever,
24:47
like those are the simple
24:48
things that you guys can do
24:49
to kind of bump up the
24:50
fiber count at dinnertime too.
24:52
Yeah.
24:53
Yeah.
24:54
I think everything else
24:55
though this week is looking really good.
24:57
I'm happy to hear that
24:57
things are in a better spot
25:00
and no doctor's appointment
25:01
until the 20th, right?
25:03
No,
25:04
the family doctor is a week from Friday.
25:07
Okay, cool.
25:07
So that's going to be another update.
25:09
Your weight is also just for
25:11
a little weight update is
25:12
trending back down.
25:13
So obviously you were at 287
25:17
before all this stuff happened,
25:18
like the big hiccup.
25:21
And you shot back up, obviously,
25:23
with the water weight inflammation.
25:25
You were at 297 on the 14th.
25:28
And it's been trickling back down.
25:30
So we're down to 290-ish.
25:32
So I'm not going to have you
25:33
take photos this month.
25:35
I know that I wanted you to
25:36
take photos every month.
25:37
But knowing how I'm not
25:38
expecting to see a big
25:39
change from January to now.
25:42
Because...
25:44
literally this month has been,
25:46
you went up to come right
25:47
back down to where you were.
25:48
So,
25:49
but we will take new photos again next
25:51
month.
25:52
So I think that now we're in
25:54
a spot where we should be
25:55
able to kind of keep trending down.
25:56
I'm knocking on my table
26:00
here that nothing happens.
26:02
You, you don't want the shock mark.
26:05
Well,
26:05
we can have the shock mark if you want.
26:07
I just know that everybody
26:08
doesn't love taking photos,
26:09
so I'm not going to make
26:10
you do it if it's not really relevant,
26:12
you know, so.
26:14
I think that it's important
26:15
to kind of do that.
26:16
Corey,
26:16
that actually sounds like a great salad,
26:19
avocado raspberry salad.
26:20
I just, I'm picturing like spinach,
26:24
avocados, some chicken, some raspberries,
26:27
some goat cheese,
26:28
a light balsamic dressing,
26:30
a couple of little candied pecans.
26:34
Sounds amazing.
26:36
Yeah.
26:37
But
26:38
Yeah.
26:38
Awesome.
26:39
So it looks like I need to
26:40
do some consultations,
26:42
consultations with coach
26:43
Cheryl on the Clydesdale
26:45
media weight loss journey.
26:47
But this week, dude, I think it's,
26:48
it's getting in a little bit more fiber.
26:50
So looking for different types of berries,
26:54
you know, like you mentioned,
26:54
the fruits are good.
26:55
The apples, oatmeal.
26:57
I know you were on oatmeal
26:58
kick for a little while.
26:59
Oatmeal is also a good carb.
27:01
I've had that a couple of times this week.
27:03
Yeah.
27:03
Oh, I didn't see that,
27:04
but that's actually a good,
27:06
a good one that you can add in.
27:08
Um, you used to do it before bed.
27:10
That used to be your nighttime snack.
27:12
Yeah.
27:12
I've been adding it to
27:13
breakfast with some protein powder.
27:16
Okay.
27:20
Yeah.
27:20
I would say let's, that,
27:22
that'd be a good car or a
27:23
good carb to have oatmeal.
27:25
Um, trying to get some other, that's not,
27:27
there's like also like some
27:29
grain products, but like,
27:30
I just think that sometimes
27:31
the specialty grain
27:32
products are just like
27:34
Like I'm not,
27:35
I honestly don't like quinoa
27:37
and like that kinds of stuff.
27:38
I just would rather not.
27:40
So pecan, not pecan, pecan.
27:44
Is it pecan or pecan?
27:45
Pecan.
27:46
I don't know.
27:47
When I lived in the South, it is pecan.
27:49
Pecan, pecan, pecans.
27:52
There's this guy, it's,
27:53
this is just funny shit
27:55
that I'm going to tell you guys.
27:56
There's a guy that I follow
27:57
on social media, on Instagram.
28:00
He makes,
28:00
I think his name is like keto
28:02
snacks or something like that.
28:04
And he makes like little
28:06
like Instagram reels of like,
28:08
if you mix this, this, and this,
28:09
you'll get this.
28:11
And he can,
28:12
I don't know if he does it on purpose,
28:14
but like he purposefully
28:16
like pronounces things wrong.
28:18
I swear.
28:19
Like he says tortilla, tortilla.
28:24
He says prosciutto, prosciutto.
28:27
Like I'm like.
28:30
what is going on?
28:31
And it's just like,
28:32
I have to listen to it
28:33
three or four times.
28:34
Like, did he,
28:35
is he intentionally doing that?
28:37
Or is this really how he
28:39
thinks it's supposed to be said?
28:40
But funny talk with coach Cheryl, but Oh,
28:44
there it is.
28:45
Yeah.
28:46
It's a nice little Mark.
28:47
So there's the burn Mark tattoo.
28:50
Yep.
28:51
Yeah.
28:52
Is it gone now?
28:54
It's lightened up, but it's still there.
28:55
That's funny.
28:57
That looks ouchy.
29:00
yeah it's ouchy yeah but
29:04
anyways yeah wad zombie I'm
29:06
I'm hoping it's uh I'm
29:09
hoping it's on purpose
29:11
because if not I mean I
29:14
think he says avocado
29:16
avocado it's like yeah I
29:19
think some people do that
29:20
on purpose I'm like I don't know
29:24
But whatever.
29:25
So, all right.
29:26
Well, I think, dude,
29:26
you did a great job last week.
29:29
So last thing that we should
29:30
just touch on is I know you
29:33
got a little bit of a
29:33
workout in yesterday.
29:34
I think that maybe you
29:36
should just kind of get
29:37
back onto the Polaris routine.
29:39
modify whatever they use and
29:42
maybe not do the actual met cons,
29:44
but I know that she
29:45
programs like strength and
29:46
bodybuilding type stuff and
29:48
maybe doing a very modified
29:50
version of the workout.
29:51
I don't mind helping you with that.
29:52
Or if you want me to give
29:53
you some workouts this week, I can,
29:55
but just something to get the body moving,
29:58
nothing intense.
29:59
Like if you're, if yesterday felt good,
30:02
stuff like that is what you
30:03
should be doing.
30:05
So the cool thing is they
30:07
put my membership on pause,
30:08
but I still have access to the Wattify.
30:10
Okay.
30:12
So, um, so yeah, I can,
30:15
I can look at what they're doing,
30:17
maybe do some strength work, uh,
30:21
Yeah.
30:22
I mean, I think it should start simple,
30:23
like three by five back squats.
30:25
Like don't need to be super complicated.
30:27
Like you at right now,
30:29
like just think of it like
30:30
you're a brand new person
30:32
coming back from being out
30:33
for a couple of months.
30:36
Yeah.
30:36
I just don't have a rack or a bench.
30:40
Okay.
30:41
I'm not going to be squatting.
30:43
It should be something I can
30:46
pick up and put on my back.
30:47
We can just do sandbag squats.
30:50
We can do three sets of 10 sandbag squats.
30:52
We can definitely do front squats,
30:55
which I know that those are
30:56
your favorite.
30:58
Least.
30:59
Loving that front rack mobility.
31:00
I think that let's get you
31:04
just getting some movement in.
31:05
Again, nothing crazy.
31:07
I think 20 minutes just like
31:09
quick, quick lift, and then, you know,
31:12
maybe do some accessory work mixed in.
31:15
So that's what I, and I don't mind,
31:16
like I said,
31:17
I don't mind helping you out
31:17
a little bit with that,
31:18
but if you have access,
31:20
I would just say kind of
31:20
modifying what they're
31:22
doing and doing that.
31:24
for you for this week but
31:26
make sure that you're
31:28
warming up like do some
31:31
mobility do some biking do
31:32
some air squats like do
31:35
some basic stuff to get the
31:36
joints moving because you
31:37
haven't been and your back
31:39
is going to be super tight
31:42
so I've been doing mobility good um
31:45
It's definitely picked up
31:46
since the procedure because
31:49
I can lean over and it
31:49
doesn't make me gas for air.
31:52
I've been doing much more probably Friday,
31:55
Saturday, Sunday.
31:56
I've been doing 20 to 30
31:59
minutes sitting in front of the TV.
32:01
Awesome.
32:04
Awesome.
32:04
Yeah.
32:05
All right.
32:06
Well,
32:06
I think that you're doing great this
32:08
week.
32:08
This week looks really good.
32:09
So I'm stoked to see how
32:10
this coming week goes.
32:12
I think that 7K steps, staying consistent,
32:16
throwing a few more fiber foods.
32:17
And I did see that you added
32:19
some of my suggestions in there.
32:20
We're just going to keep
32:20
bumping it up and go from there.
32:23
Yeah.
32:23
I forgot how good a Levesque
32:25
bread pizza is.
32:28
You can do so many things with those.
32:30
You can make your own
32:33
pop tarts.
32:33
If you want, you can take two and like,
32:35
you can do all kinds of fun
32:36
stuff with those things, but I love,
32:38
you can even cut them into strips,
32:40
throw them in the air fryer,
32:41
put them on top of the salad.
32:42
Like you make Buffalo
32:44
chicken wraps with them.
32:46
You can,
32:46
you can make breakfast burritos
32:47
with them.
32:48
You can do so many things with them.
32:49
So yeah.
32:53
Uh,
32:53
Heidi's asking what's wrong with hair
32:55
squats.
32:56
There's nothing wrong with air squats.
32:57
Yeah.
32:58
Nothing at all.
32:59
Just want to feel strong again.
33:01
Yeah.
33:02
I feel you there.
33:06
Yeah, but the pizza we had Saturday.
33:07
I saw that.
33:09
Flatbread pizza.
33:11
So good.
33:12
Yeah, it's good.
33:13
You can make different ones.
33:14
You can do like a buffalo
33:15
chicken or a barbecue chicken pizza,
33:16
flatbread, all kinds of stuff with it.
33:19
I actually like to fold it
33:21
over like a calzone.
33:22
Yeah, that sounds amazing.
33:24
You know what I saw somebody do?
33:26
They put the tortilla in the pan and
33:30
And then they put the eggs.
33:32
So they put the eggs in the
33:33
pan and they put the
33:34
tortilla on the eggs and
33:36
they cooked it like that.
33:37
And then they flipped it
33:38
over and they added cheese on top.
33:39
And then they rolled it over
33:40
like an egg and cheese quesadilla.
33:43
It looked really good.
33:44
It's, I don't know.
33:45
I'm just, I'm getting hungry.
33:47
It's dinnertime.
33:49
Have I tried air fried fruit?
33:51
I have not.
33:52
I honestly, I haven't,
33:53
but it's kind of like dehydrated fruit,
33:56
I guess.
33:57
I've seen people do like
33:58
apple chips and stuff.
33:59
It's 70 degrees here.
34:00
Like I could get the grill
34:02
out and grill fruit, which I have tried.
34:04
Yeah.
34:05
Grilled plums.
34:06
Those are good.
34:07
Grilled pineapple is so good.
34:09
Yeah.
34:10
Also with a little bit of ice cream.
34:12
Grilled peaches.
34:13
Yeah.
34:15
So, yeah.
34:17
Well,
34:17
we just have a bunch of oranges down
34:18
here in Florida.
34:21
Yeah.
34:22
Anyways.
34:22
We're close to Georgia.
34:23
Well, yeah.
34:24
No.
34:27
Living in Florida is great.
34:28
You know,
34:28
we definitely have the world of like,
34:31
you know, seasonally the vegetables,
34:33
fruits are pretty easy to get down here.
34:36
So I feel like some places in the country,
34:38
you don't get that access in the cold.
34:40
So I don't know.
34:42
But yeah, Kenneth,
34:45
I also grilled bananas are really good.
34:47
Actually sauteed bananas are really good.
34:50
I just, I'm getting hungry.
34:52
So yeah.
34:53
All right.
34:55
We'll call it a day.
34:56
We're rambling now.
34:58
Thank you to everybody in
34:59
the chat for the suggestions.
35:01
Um, you guys are awesome.
35:03
Love that you're here every
35:04
week and we will see
35:05

35:08
Clydesdale media weight loss journey.
35:09
