Hi, everybody. We are so glad you're here today. Welcome to this week's episode of the Fast Feast Repeat, Intermittent Fasting for Life podcast. How are you doing today, Sherry?

0:52.1

I am doing great. How are you? Flimmy.

0:55.9

You're flummy? Are you sick? Or did I mention last week when I'd gotten back from Puerto Rico that I had

1:02.8

like some congestion? No, but now that you say that, I remember you saying that you had a cough or something in

1:08.1

community. Yeah. Well, it's just so weird.
