It's going to be a great one. There's going to be a lot of passion behind it. And we're ramping up for another big week. We're going to have a great Sunday, fun day, Q&A. There's just some great stuff that's coming and feeling really on topity top.

I feel like we're really coming together as a community and you guys are really dropping some

amazing questions and really engaging. So I want to say thank you to everyone, even if it's

regardless of what they're coming off, you need support. You need a community. And if you don't have

those people around you that are supporting you that are there for you

during those low periods during those periods of potential relapse from my personal experience

if you don't have that community you are more likely to fall off and to have those issues

repeat or recur however you want to discuss it so I would recommend that you

get involved here with the swelormous community I mean if you have a local gym

But that's where Swolormus, Swelormus X, that's where these online communities can really

take off because they're online, but it's real people.

And I always like to reiterate that, that all the screen names, all these questions, I know
