| 0:13.2 | So we had our annual physical for the first time now and it turns out that this diet has made me eat way too much meat and cheese |
| 0:22.1 | And my cholesterol is crazy high. Oh to find crazy high. I have a story about this as well to find crazy high |
| 0:28.3 | It's like 40% higher on both numbers than what it should be |
