Their lives were just so unpredictable.

They would get incredible results in 21,30 and even 60 day programs but eventually they would regress back to mean and back to the shape they were previously in.

I could not imagine a world in which I was not....

I couldn’t imagine not doing those things, but it’s more than just doing them.
