I really feel like the world is kind of stacked against us. The negatives, in my opinion, far outweigh the positives. If you truly wanted to lose weight, but you could fast for a week and you would lose a ton of weight, the problem is, like, that isn't going to help it. You're just going to gain that weight back. People are saying that their day-to-day life is suffering because they're just not really craving food, so they're eating so little, their energy levels are worse. Their sex drive is next to none. Their work life is suffering.

And then you'll see that same person six months later when they're off cycle. And you see them

podcast. I'm your coach and host Josh here with his co-host and co-coach KG and I'm in the house.

And we got a jam-packed episode today. We're so excited. A lot of very relevant questions to

kind of what's going on right now in the fitness health weight loss

space. So we're really excited to jump into it. And as always, this motivation Monday, formerly

mailbox Monday, the OGs will remember. So we're going to start with the first question out

of the mailbag. And that is, are people actually getting healthier or are we just getting

better at buying health products?

And this question was awesome to me. It just, it got my brain spinning because I think as a whole,

most people would agree that society is actually getting less healthy. Obesity rates are going up.

You're seeing more illness. You're seeing more just excessive indulgence, whether it be just dopamine indulgence,
