Yeah. And yeah, I can construct a narrative to make you afraid of anything. Yeah. Fat, carbohydrate, protein. I can construct those narratives. And again, what I saw so often was people trying to abstain from these things and ended up actually eating more of it because of it. And then when I kind of like, I'll never forget.
I had a client one time and I said, Hey, listen, here's what I want you to do. Okay. I want you to, can you eat these calories? All right. And have a small bowl of ice cream every night. And if you don't lose weight because sugar is stopping you from losing weight, then we'll cut it up. But just, just, just have it.

And after two weeks, they're like, oh my God, I've lost three pounds and I was still able to have some ice cream. I'm like, yeah, yeah, you're fine. Like, it's a dosage thing, okay? Now, just like, you know, with Ramsey talking about budgeting, right?

If you can still take care of your responsibilities, your mortgage, your utilities, food, et cetera, et cetera, and you have a lot of money left over and you're taking care of all your responsibilities, a sports car might not be a great investment, right?

But if you like it and it gives you some joy, if it fits in your budget, there's nothing in Ramsey's stuff that says, hey, don't go buy a sports car.

And so that's kind of how I look at treats and processed food and all that kind of stuff. Okay, if you're sedentary and you don't expend much energy every day, yeah, your budget's going to be pretty small. It doesn't make sense for you to allot some of that towards a piece of cheesecake or ice cream or whatever. No, probably not. But if you have a larger budget...

And also, if you allot some of this and you are able to moderate it, and I hope everybody's different, but if you are able to moderate it and it helps keep you consistent, like for me, if I know I can have the foods I like, but I just got to kind of fit them into my budget, I'm fine.
