It was delicious. It was so good. And this is what I remind people all the time. You don't have to give up your favorite foods, but make sure that when you're eating those foods, they're made with whole real food ingredients. So if you can't find a restaurant nearby that's using 100% Italian flour or whatever it is in their pizza dough, make pizza at home. Make those burgers at home.

you do not have to be restrictive. In fact, I have never had a healthier relationship with my food ever in my entire life. I've never had a healthier relationship with it because as long as it's real food, nothing is off the table for me. I don't feel like I'm like, oh, I can't have that cookie or whatever. I'm like, is it made with real ingredients? Great, I'm gonna have a cookie, love it.

That's my only restriction is that I want it to be made with real food. Whereas before when I was eating like slim fast bars and stuff, I was literally trying to like, oh, how many calories is in this? And, you know, like trying to track everything. And I don't even think of that way anymore.

And then I would say the last one is try to eat try to eat as many meals at home as you can. Because when you eat out, this is when you're gonna start seeing the additives and the seed oils and everything else. So try to eat as many meals at home as possible.

I think, oh, man, I have to think about this for a second. How do I want to answer this? I think to be an ultimate human is to live with your soul's purpose and also to live in integrity and always strive for the truth and to be the best you can for yourself and for everyone in your life and everyone that you love.
