What's up? You're a hello. I was hoping that wouldn't be on video because I'm looking pretty dorky all I had with the microphone were my work headphones.

So oh my god stop you don't look dorky at all. I got this who fias microphone here. Touch trust me. You do not like dork at all. I'm just super excited to be able to talk with you. I'm I've been looking forward to this all week. I am stoked.

No, I'm stoked. I'm not think out. Where are you based? I am in Lexington Kentucky. Oh nice. That's awesome. Have you been there your whole life?

I was born in Western Kentucky. I came to Lexington and 95 to go to UK University of Kentucky and I've been here ever since. Do you like it? I love it. Yeah. And you have family there too.

There about three hours away in Western Kentucky. Actually I have a best friend that lives here in Louisville about an hour away, which is where I am right now.

I came out here. I've been here for a week. I went crazy with COVID. I live by myself. Well, me and my great-day. And so two months with no human contact was a lot. So I came to my best friend's house for a week and here it is.

Are you still able to work or or no? Yes, I work for the state. We're able to work from home. I'm a I have I'm a tax supervisor for the part department of revenue. So we have I have tax auditors that are auditing businesses, which is kind of unfortunate time to be doing that right.

Yeah, it's never a good time to do that, especially right now. Yeah. Yeah. So we're trying to stay away from anybody who's been severely impacted and just finished up things that we already had going and not start anything new.

Right now. So yeah, I've been able to work. But there's there's not a lot to do right now. Got it. Got it. Okay. Well, I'm glad that you're still able to work. That's that's.

Yeah, I'm thankful. I'm thankful for it. It makes me thankful for my job, you know, and security that I have in that. Yeah. So so listen, I know that you're busy and I don't want to take it too much for your time, but I'm I'm very excited to talk with you.

For a number of reasons, not least of which the email that you sent, and he was two weeks ago now, three weeks ago now, it blew me away.

It just absolutely blew me away. My jaw dropped hit the floor. I mean, losing you say you said you lost 30 pounds since January.

Yeah.

Yeah. Could you just I would just love to hear your story.

I just want to learn about you. I want to tell me about who you are.

And it doesn't only have to be fitness related, but I would love to hear because what you've done is is not the norm.

The results that you have is not it's not usual. It's the things that people look at on social media and they say, I'll never be that person to make that kind of progress.

It's the stuff that people don't believe that they could actually accomplish. And and I'm just I'm so interested in your story. I want to hear you tell me about it from start to finish.

So I've always been an active person. I used to love working out a lot, work with personal trainers. I love to go hiking. I always have a dog.
