But I've also seen the devastation and what it can do when people use it inappropriately and overprescribe it and don't truly take the patient into account. Like we've got to have the conversation. We got to help people help themselves.

The main thing I learned is it's not about being perfect. It's about being better, right? Every opportunity is a choice to make a better choice. And as a momentum breeds momentum, like we were saying with the GLP-1s,

If you can help someone get wins on the board and they can make slight adjustments through diet, lifestyle, exercise, pharmaceutical intervention if needed, and they start seeing results, you're so much more likely to commit. And so for me, it candidly started small. It's the same counsel we would give any patient. So let's go back to like if we were to do a DEXA.

At the time, I did a DEXA on myself. So I knew I weighed, you know, at the time, I think 198 pounds. And I knew how much of my body was muscle. If I know how much of my body's muscle, which is a very simple DEXA scan, I now know exactly how many grams of protein I need to maintain lean muscle. And so as wild as it sounds is you can prioritize your diet to feed the muscle and starve the fat.

And so as wild as it sounds is you can prioritize your diet to feed the muscle and starve the fat.
If the more protein you eat, one gram of protein per pound of lean muscle mass to maintain lean muscle. So if I'm 150 pounds of lean muscle, not to get too technical, I need 150 grams of protein just to maintain muscle. So if you eat enough protein and but are at a caloric deficit, in theory, you will minimize your loss of muscle and maximize your loss of fat.

And so we took a very methodical approach, but it doesn't have to be that discipline. I started out like, I'm gonna try and eat more protein and I'm gonna try not to eat junk food and I'm gonna cut out soft drinks and I'm gonna cut out alcohol. And just doing those things and dialing in my hormones changed my life. Then as I started getting to like 10% body fat, I'm like, oh man,

Can I get down to like, can I get shredded? I'm going to like get really strict. And so then I got really strict at the time and began to really prioritize protein and get really methodical. But, you know, to me, I tell people just make better choices. Like there's always an opportunity for a better choice. And just because you make a mistake,
