And through just what were you eating then? By then I was using the nutritionist, but then it was a question of, did I dig too big of a hole? And then the question is, are you overtraining and you're crashing what little hormones you have left and your body's trying to get ramped up? So we ended up treating at the time with HCG and clomiphene.

What did the nutritionist tell you to do? Oh, we prioritize protein, one gram of protein per pound of lean muscle mass. We cleaned up my diet. If you make protein the basis of your diet because you need a gram of protein per pound of lean muscle mass to maintain. If you're trying to gain lean muscle mass, you have to up that protein intake. And then based off diet or lifestyle and activity level.

And so we would prioritize my carbs through certain times of the day. We would keep me at a caloric deficit and we'd prioritize protein in that caloric deficit. And what you'll find is mind blowing. You aren't as hungry if I don't eat a diet.

And so we prioritize proteins, healthy proteins like chickens, fish, all of those sources, and then healthy carbs. Get away from sugars, whites, starches. Prioritize healthy carbohydrate sources that are slower burning, that allow you to metabolize the protein that you're absorbing. Fruits and vegetables. So how much weight did you lose that way?

I literally went, well, starting on diet, I probably lost about half of the weight that I was trying to get off. Um, so I know body fat percentage, he got me from 25 down to about 15. And then when we added hormone optimization, um, not testosterone at the time, it was HCG and clomiphene, which boost your natural testosterone levels being monitored by a clinician within physiological norms, right?

To try and make sure that we're optimizing my health, not trying to get jacked and tan. Yeah. Literally helped me go from 15 to, at the time, I think I dropped down to around 7%. And I did not change anything. I was working out the same way, eating the same way. 7% is very lean. Yeah. And now I walk around 12 to 15. That's sustainable. And I think in my 40s, that's a level that makes sense to me.
