Hello and welcome to the Chris Terrell podcast. My name is Chris Terrell. Thanks so much for being here.

You know, it is my mission here to help people lose a million pounds. I haven't talked about

that at a time, but isn't it? That's a lot.

That's a big number, right?

A million pounds. And when I was setting the goal, I had to really think about it. I'm like, wow, a million pounds seems like, how many people is that? And I got to thinking, like, you know what? Stop trying to figure that out, Terrell. Just go help the next person lose one pound. just go help the next person lose 10.

And I'm like, well, I don't know how to track it.

I don't know how to record it.

I'm like, you know what?

That's fine. just go help the next person lose one pound just go help the next person lose 10 and I'm like

well I don't know how to track it I don't know how to record it I'm like you know what that's fine

you'll figure it out and if you miss some who cares just start helping people lose weight

if that's your mission go out and achieve that mission I'm sharing that with you because I

don't talk enough about why I'm here.

Why I do what I do.

Why I left my career to come do this.

I was blessed to have a wonderful life.

I was able to stand on the shoulders of wonderful men and women who taught me so much, who generously and graciously imparted their

knowledge and their wisdom and their life experiences to me, literally enabling me to bypass

decades of knowledge and experience and failures because I could learn from them.

I've talked a lot about my dad because he's one of my major ones.

But there's been so many others.

I've had some great bosses, some great church leaders, some great friends, some great relatives.
