  Speaker 1: outside my department that I was standing in New York
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to walk across the street to go to the gym.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: That's how cold it was. And then Michael he called

  Speaker 1: miss Hey, you know we're about to do The Best
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Man people Top Shape, and I was like, oh. So
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: then I was actually on a on a conference call
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: with someone and she was a fitness She was a
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: fitness person and she was pitching us an idea about
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: something else. And and I went to her website and
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I saw a picture of Obie. I said, who was
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: just cat right? Because and she says that, you know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: she gave me the information and and he and I
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: just started working out together and and and all the
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: things that that we implemented, and the workout getting ready
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: for The Best Man, we put the book. And so
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: then it came time to do the press tour for
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: The Best Man, everyone kept showing the picture with me
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: with my shirt off, and how did you get in
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: touch with shape? So we're like, hey, let's just put
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: this in the book and and and and give it
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: to the people. And that's what we did with the cut.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: So the the goal was just for you, just get
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: in shape for the movie. That was the goal. Let
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: me just go throw out some gowns here about this.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: When you started, Mars was to her than twenty pounds
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: and scaled down, scaled down two hundred and eighty seven
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: pounds in just twelve weeks. Yeah, just twelve weeks. So
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: so so the reason I'm really excited about this because,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: like I told you guys, in the beginning of the interview.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I'm on it. And when I read the book, this
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: was this one got me was that the menused though Marris,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the menus waving Branchero's right, you know tacos right right right,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: right right right, you know, regular food, and that really
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: trips people out, you know, and so so so I'm
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: just letting everybody know. And I'm not I don't want
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: to jump so far that because this is your book.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I'm just an excited participant. Marrison appreciated because I was
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the same thing. You know, your your participant. I was
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: a participant to because everything that we did to get
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: me down and ready for the movie, he's in the book.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: And and the thing about it is that they're they're
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: pictures of just regular people who's showing you it actually
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: does happen. And I did that. I just I'm just
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: amazed when I hear and I and I and I
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: see and I look at myself. No, I'm not ready
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: to get in a book now. I'm not gonna take
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: my shirt off. Not more. I'm not gonna do it.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: We'll give We'll give you another months. We'll give you
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: another month. Thank you very much, thank you very much.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: So when when you when you, when you people talk
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: to you and you're you're you're walking testimonial and that
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the cut, you know, losing ten pounds in ten days.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: There's always naysayers, how do you how do you get
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: around that to saying, well, you know you had a trainer,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: you know more as you had a trainer. Well, I'm
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: a big proponent of trainers because this is the unfortunate
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: reality of life, is that sometimes people push us harder
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: than we can just push ourselves, especially when you get
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: into a gym. You know, you get into a gym
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: and you do just enough for you think you can't
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: go anymore than you kind of stop, but the trainer
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: kind of pushes you over the top. So I'm a
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: big proponent of trainers. Um And in terms of the book,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: um and and people all the naysayers. It's with anybody
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: and with anything, And you have to be in the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: right frame of mind to really want to do it,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: to really want to make a change. Um. There are
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of people that kind of just sit back
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: and say, oh, well, um, they didn't do this, this
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: is easier or whatever. But that's because sometimes they're not
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in the write them the mind to make the change
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: that they want in their life. I'm a person believe
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: that anybody can do whatever they want if they put
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: their mind to it. And I know that sounds like
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: a cliche um, but it is really true. So when
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: people really make up their minds, there you know what,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna get this weight off of me, They'll do it.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Here's the deal. I'm on the phone with Morse Chestnut.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: He's promoting a book, very popular book. It was number
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: one on Amazon, the Amazon dot com and the diet genre.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: You know, the name of the book is to cut
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: lose up to ten piles in ten days and sculpture
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: your best body. And I hoppled out earlier about the
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: rule and let me explain to people what that is.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Is even healthy for eight percent of the time and
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: have them cheap meals twenty percent of the time and
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: you can manage your weight and help following the rule.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: This rule here, that's the diet that I'm on right now,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm loving it. Like I told her earlier, you know,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: can you tell us some of the meals when it
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: also what does that cheap time actually mean? Okay, so
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: we have a lot of different there's a lot of
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: different meals in the book to were recipes and everything,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and everyone can make the meals. Okay. So the one
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: thing with the particular diet is you don't everyone you know,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: thinks that they have to just kill themselves and eat
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: and eat things that takes like cardboard for the rest
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: of their lives. Prow what it is because you know,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: there's moderation. There's moderation with everything. So in our book,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: if you eat healthy eight percent of the time, and
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: you can have to cheap meals, not cheap days, not
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: cheap weekend, to cheat meals throughout because you know, we
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: still wanna, you know, we want to do what we
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: do and still enjoy life, still enjoy the cool pleasures
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: extent and um that time. And let me tell you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: what cheap meals are. Don'nuts at Altas fried chicken ice cream. Again.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: I told y'all, I'm on this diet. I've lost six pounds,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I've eaten this and just letting you know that I'm
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: a guy telling you I love to eat. I got
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: on my phone Crispy Cree, a Crispy cream app. Okay,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: so you're looking at the guy to eat stone nuts
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: for real and so when I when I got when
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I saw this, and I'm gonna just tell you another
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: testimonial because I'm gonna be a testimonial for this book
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: The Cut, you know, lose up to ten pounds in
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: ten days and sculpture your body. When I went shopping
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: when I got the book, you know, when I read it,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: then I went through the recipes, I went on in
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the shop where I thought I would normally eat, and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I so I came back, I went to the score
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: called the sprouts with the sprouts, and then uh, and
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: I put everything in the refrigerator. I over bought because
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: you said a keyword moderation. And I have actually probably
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: three to four weeks of food in my refrigerator based
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: on what I bought, based on you telling me, Rashan,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: you've been eating too much. You can still have a healthy,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: good life, lose weights, sculptu your body. If you follow
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: the book, you're now saving me money. Yeah, that's the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: other things for people say everything in moderation. Also, it's
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: about your portion sizes. People say, okay, well I might
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: have a cheap meal and they eat a whole pizza.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: You should do you should moderate your portion sizes. Throughout
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: the course of the diet, and pretty soon your stomach
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: of shrinking. You won't want to, you know, sit down
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: and and and goorage out on the whole pizza. At
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the point your something's gonna shrink and you're gonna eat,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: want to eat instead of eating five pieces that you
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: used to get your fool now it's gonna be two
