But most people who are trying to cut back on sugar alcohol, they don't need another book telling them, oh, sugar is going to affect your teeth. It's going to put on weight. You're going to have low energy. It's going to increase your risk of diabetes. No, I would say in the world today, we have so many health podcasts, so many health books, so many online articles.

We've got more information than ever before. Yet despite that, our physical health is getting worse, our mental health is getting worse. So the case I make in this new book, Mel, is that we don't need more external knowledge necessarily. We need more internal knowledge, more self-awareness, more insights. That's how you change your life for good, right?

You listen to experts like you, Mel, or me, but then you put it through your own filter and go, does this work for me? Is this the right approach for me? And that's what I found to be, The most useful thing throughout my entire career, Mel, the patients who've changed their life for good, somewhere along the line, it stopped being my plan and it became their plan. Oh, I love that.

It's such a key point, Mel. People will often ask me, well, are each of those three Fs as important as the other? No, they're not. The most important F is the first F, feel. What am I feeling? I would say that's 80 to 90% of it. When you break the loop of this patterning of sofa, I want some ice cream, open the freezer, spoon in my mouth, right? We've all been there, Mel, right?
