| 0:00.0 | From the headquarters of the Guild of Champions, this is the Chris Terrell podcast, and I am your host, Chris Terrell, and welcome to another week of your weight loss quest. |
| 0:19.3 | How did this last week go for you, champion? What new challenges did you encounter? |
| 0:22.6 | But more importantly, what failure did you experience? |
| 0:25.6 | And what I really want to hear about is that lesson that you went and got from that failure. |
| 0:30.6 | Come on now, don't let a perfectly good failure go by without you getting your lesson. |
| 0:34.6 | Now, if you're new here, I've lost 125 pounds myself |
| 0:38.9 | after an entire adulthood of chronic yo-yo dieting, up, down, up, down again, before I |
| 0:45.8 | finally got sick and tired of being sick and tired, and I made some permanent, meaningful, |

| 1:43.1 | Put something in a calendar. |
| 1:44.6 | Make a purchase that you got to buy to get that tool to help you get the job done. |
| 1:48.9 | Go buy a course that you need, to hire a coach. |
| 1:51.6 | Or perhaps you just need to look at the local gym and find out when their hours are so that you |
