I think my cardiologist and my heart surgeon, I'm actually out of Dallas, Texas, and they

were exactly the medical professionals I needed. I mean, they were literally the Calp Dallas,

typical Dallas in scrubs, but with big ass boots on. And they said, you know, we're the best

it's ever been and we're going to give you this surgery and you're going to be great. You're going to deal with it in 20 years. Just, you know, calm down and try to take care of yourself, but you're likely going to deal with it again. But, you know, keep exercising, keep taking care of yourself. So it's been great. I could not be in happier or feel better about it, frankly. Set yourself free. Come on and take it right to me. We know what you need to know. And what's it all about? Everything you need. It's on the Clip Out. Welcome to the Clip Out podcast, episode 243. This is Crystal O'Keefe. And this is Tom O'Keefe. Hi. Hi. I didn't realize you were starting. I thought we knew

that's what we were doing. No, you know, you're like, are you ready? And you didn't say, and I was like, so, so right, here I am. I'm going to scrabbing for my little thing to turn on the counter. And yeah, hi. What did you think I was doing over here? I don't know. I was, I do like I said normally you're like hey and so anyway hi hi hi we're doing a show yeah we're very

professional about all this. Yeah. We want to talk a little bit about a piece of less than positive feedback that we've received. No, I just want to preface this by saying, I realize that we are not for everybody. So, like, this is not about a personal

opinion. Actually, it tends to be me. But the only reason that we're addressing this, because normally

we just ignore it. The only reason I want to address this is because this is factually wrong,

and that bothers me. Right. Because I feel like I need to set the record straight. Totally.

We got a

review and Tom do you want to read it well basically they were complaining about the

MEP pro segments and Chris working for Mep Pro because it's weight loss culture and that's

not a good thing to inflict upon people and and and you can certainly lose weight with metpro i have done it but i've also gotten

a lot healthier and it's not the only thing people use metpro for you already have numerous

clients that are marathon runners yeah not hoping to one day run a marathon but they're like how can

i go from running three marathons a year to five marathons a year those aren aren't people that need to lose weight. Right. And the reason that I wanted to address it is because, yes, looking at it like talking about weight loss is negative. Okay, some people feel that way. And it can be triggering to people, especially if they have eating disordered paths or things like that, totally get that. But on the flip side of things,

I think it's important for the person who wrote this to remember that people like one of my

clients who doesn't have a weight issue at all, but wants to be faster, wants to be stronger

and run more efficiently and use fuel to do that also feels incredibly

insulted by people that say things like, oh, you don't need to do that.

And it kind of feels like maybe this person is one of those people.

Like the pendulums can swing in both directions.
