1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,920
Since we moved to our new place, my step count has gone actually from an average 8,000.

2
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,000
Wow, to an average 12.

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,000
To an average 12.

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:14,000
That's amazing.

5
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:15,000
That's amazing.

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,000
I know, crazy isn't it?

7
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,480
You know, I mean again, James Clear direct quote, change your environment, change your

8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:20,480
life.

9
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:21,480
Yeah, oh god yeah, so true.

10
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:22,480
Like, the dogs helped obviously.

11
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:29,020
Yeah, yeah, well so that's another environmental change though, like which is super, for me

12
00:00:29,020 --> 00:00:30,600
it's living on the hill.

13
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:36,340
Like my floors, I mean it's like I'm 24 floors on average now, I used to be like 10 to 15.

14
00:00:36,340 --> 00:00:38,040
It's like just living on the hill I live on.

15
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:42,800
Mine is, mine was a lot less because I had one level apartment, never needed to take

16
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,800
stairs.

17
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:44,800
Like not even stairs.

18
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:45,800
On level 10s I didn't really take the stairs up.

19
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,040
When we lived on level 2, I would always take the stairs up.

20
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:50,040
Because obviously it's one level.

21
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,040
Yeah, it's one level right?

22
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:52,040
It's like yeah.

23
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:57,880
When we moved to level 10, the lift up, and now we've got three levels in our house plus

24
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,360
the hill on our road.

25
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,280
So the other day I was going for breakfast and Aman asked me to go to the hardware store

26
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,240
and he left a nail like in the house.

27
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,600
I went all the way down the hill, realized I'd forgotten the nail, had to walk all the

28
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:12,840
way back up again.

29
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:13,840
And then back to the hardware store.

30
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,840
Yeah, and then obviously again to go back home.

31
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,840
But amazing.

32
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,600
But I was like actually at least I got my steps in and I got my hill cow in my elevation

33
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,320
so that was pretty decent.

34
00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:25,240
I love that though.

35
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,480
And I also think back to people's expectations.

36
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,600
I had a client be she'd be like I could never meet 10,000 steps whatever it ever.

37
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,920
And she was like I took a short walk and it was only a thousand steps.

38
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,120
And I wanted to be like what is short to you?

39
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,400
Is it three minutes?

40
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,720
Like when she said when I say I took a short walk I mean 10 minutes.

41
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,520
I was like if she only got a thousand steps like how short was that walk and then how

42
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,760
did that even register as a walk to her?

43
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,120
You know like I took a short walk.

44
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,680
Did you just walk outside your house and walk back in?

45
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,480
Like how is it only a thousand steps for a short walk?

46
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:58,480
I don't even understand.

47
00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:59,800
Like I don't know.

48
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,160
Like I take my kids to school and back and that's my first three thousand steps of the

49
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,160
day.

50
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,080
And that's like just to our little school and back.

51
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,440
It's not like a whole commute.

52
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:14,120
I'll get a thousand roughly maybe a little bit more than a thousand parking at the HDB

53
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:18,240
walking each of them to their classroom and then back to the car again.

54
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,480
Like you literally drove and got more than her walk.

55
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,600
You know like I think people's expectations of taking a walk like it can't be a minute

56
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,560
or two minutes.

57
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,560
Like that's just daily activities right?

58
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,000
That's just ADLs if you will activities of daily life.

59
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,080
I remember when we first moved here though I you know I'd ask someone oh can I walk from

60
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,800
Orchard Road MRT to Somerset MRT?

61
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,800
Oh it's far.

62
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,800
No never.

63
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:43,800
I'm like really is it far?

64
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,280
It's like one stop.

65
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,280
Correct.

66
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,640
But people don't walk here this is why.

67
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:50,400
And perceptions of far exactly.

68
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,400
Yeah anything that's one bus stop or one MRT stop is not far.

69
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,400
No I know.

70
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,160
Like that's still like the MRTs I think are maximum one kilometer apart and that's and

71
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:04,600
that's like in the like as the crow flies or whatever you know so anyway.

72
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,040
I mean I'd rather walk.

73
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,440
I mean you can actually get from Orchard to Somerset pretty much underground so if it's

74
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,080
an aircon issue you can still.

75
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:16,240
You can still exactly you can just walk through Rizmatriya and all those places like under

76
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:17,240
Nyan City.

77
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,600
Yeah I'd rather do that than wait for a bloody train and then be cramped on a train.

78
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:22,600
I hate that.

79
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:23,600
Yeah.

80
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,600
I hate standing still.

81
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:25,600
Same.

82
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,760
Whether it's in traffic whether it's just standing waiting for something I'd rather

83
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,200
walk and just get even if it takes longer.

84
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:35,040
The worst feeling in the world just missing the train so then you know you have a five

85
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,040
minute stand.

86
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,040
I know.

87
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,200
You're like no I would have just kept walking.

88
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,640
Okay so we talk about our main topic for today.

89
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:43,640
Yes.

90
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:49,040
Which so we talk about many the cutting edge pressing hard edge issues here on the 40s

91
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,040
formula.

92
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,040
Today is not that day.

93
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:56,280
So today we're going to chat about something that I think all of us in our 40s actually

94
00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:01,600
do want to talk about and there isn't necessarily a forum to do it which is how do you keep

95
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,980
your shit looking good after a certain age right.

96
00:04:04,980 --> 00:04:09,920
Like how do you take care of your hair your nails your skin your you know your body like

97
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:10,920
it's fucking hard.

98
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:11,920
It's freaking hard.

99
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:12,920
It's hard.

100
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,640
It's an investment and it's like why do we have to pretend like we aren't doing it.

101
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,960
Like why can't we say this is exactly what I'm doing to kind of you know keep everything

102
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,080
held together as much as possible.

103
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:30,000
If I was to put it in order eyelashes pretty much number one for me.

104
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,000
Okay.

105
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,000
And I tell you why.

106
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,000
Tell me why.

107
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,000
I feel like I look bald without them.

108
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,760
Which is funny coming from someone with dark hair.

109
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,520
Yeah I always feel like dark hair people have a leg up on not looking bald.

110
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:41,520
I don't know.

111
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,280
I look at myself and I feel naked I feel like something's missing and I'm like okay.

112
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:49,120
And which is why we never record when I haven't done my eyelashes.

113
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,560
Yeah and I think that's actually very Asian also.

114
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,760
Like I think like a lot of the Asian audience would agree with you like lashes are the difference

115
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,880
between put together and not.

116
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,360
Yeah I will I can easily go without makeup.

117
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,360
Yeah.

118
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,240
I just need to now now make sure my eyelashes are done.

119
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:05,240
Yeah.

120
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,960
I went through a phase of trying to do gray blending.

121
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:09,960
Okay.

122
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,120
And I was like making me look is making me look older.

123
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,200
So I thought right back to the roots.

124
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,200
So that's probably another thing.

125
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,880
Yeah pedicures I have like I may not get a manicure.

126
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:20,880
Yeah.

127
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,200
Because I'm always using my hands and the nails always chip and I'm just like fucking

128
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,200
how I look awful.

129
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,200
Yeah.

130
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,880
But I will always get a pedicure done.

131
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:28,880
Yeah.

132
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,760
Obviously things like gym and stuff go without saying.

133
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:32,760
Yeah.

134
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,480
You know like like but if we're talking about purely aesthetic purely purely like things

135
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,760
that aren't necessary for your long term health.

136
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,240
Like you could live without eyelashes you could live without your hair looking a certain

137
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,240
way.

138
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,240
But yeah.

139
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,240
Eyebrow threading.

140
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:47,240
Yeah.

141
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,240
So actually I think it would be eyelashes eyebrows.

142
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:50,240
All right.

143
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,560
I'm going to put it out of their upper lip.

144
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:53,560
Yeah.

145
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:54,560
Okay.

146
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,160
Hey again this is what this episode is for like the realness dark hair dark hair.

147
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:00,160
Yes.

148
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,480
Obviously you know like shaving and shit because you live in Singapore you are wearing shorts.

149
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,480
Yeah.

150
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,440
That's obviously going to be there which I probably didn't do as often when we were in

151
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,880
England because I would be legs covered.

152
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,600
As a blonde like you don't know what's going on down there.

153
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:18,400
Like I actually take the liberty of not shaving as much because you don't see it.

154
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,880
Like you have to be in direct sunlight where like the because it kind of looks like glittery

155
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,080
yes but also his hair.

156
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,400
You got to be really looking tough.

157
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:29,400
Yeah.

158
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,400
Yeah.

159
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,320
So I think that's that's makeup is probably like far down on the list for me and I only

160
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:39,040
make a special effort when I don't know either I'm recording or I'm going somewhere.

161
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,040
Yeah.

162
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,680
Even a lot of time even when I am getting somewhere I probably don't bother with makeup.

163
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,320
So I don't know.

164
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:45,320
That's me I guess.

165
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,320
Yeah.

166
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,800
I mean I don't do eyelashes.

167
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:48,800
Yeah.

168
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,680
I do do eyebrows but again as a blonde it's not the most pressing like.

169
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,560
But you've had microblading done.

170
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:54,560
Yes.

171
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,200
So again which I think technically what I've had done is like called powder brows or eyebrow

172
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,200
tattooing.

173
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,160
There's all these different names for Korean brows right Korean 3D fade.

174
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,480
I don't know even what it is.

175
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:05,480
OK.

176
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,480
I was just going to ask you.

177
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:07,480
Yeah.

178
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:08,720
We need to call back Kelly and be like hey what is this called.

179
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,200
But it's it's definitely like a shading that I get.

180
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,320
I don't get the individual hairs because again I don't have enough individual hairs where

181
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:16,320
that would look natural.

182
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:17,320
OK.

183
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:18,320
Right.

184
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,040
Like I feel like you could get microbladed if you if you don't need it.

185
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,880
But I'm saying like because you have hairs that you can comb and look at.

186
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:25,880
OK.

187
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:31,200
I just have like fuzz that they kind of tattooed over and that game changer for for just like

188
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,200
how the face looks.

189
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,640
You know for me again the Botox is huge huge huge.

190
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,600
I have I have killed my skin with the sun.

191
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:47,160
And that's like I would say my biggest regret in my 40s now is that I did not ever use sun

192
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,440
protection as a kid.

193
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:49,440
I still don't.

194
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:50,440
You're but OK.

195
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:51,440
I don't know.

196
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,200
It's Asian skin.

197
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,560
I think I think honestly part of it.

198
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:56,560
Yes.

199
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,560
Right.

200
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,560
Maybe.

201
00:07:58,560 --> 00:07:59,560
But it's like because white people skin is super thin.

202
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:00,560
Number one.

203
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,960
And I think that's like we're already losing collagen by like the boatload.

204
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:03,960
Right.

205
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,080
Plus we get the freckles plus we get the sagging.

206
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,120
And especially again if you've gained and lost 50 pounds three times like that will

207
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,920
take a massive toll on your jowls on like just everything.

208
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:16,920
Your face shape.

209
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:17,920
Yeah.

210
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,600
Like tell me about it.

211
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:20,600
Yeah.

212
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,600
Like it's just.

213
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:22,600
Yeah.

214
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,920
So for me I would say like the Botox and then profilo is my other profilo is like it's an

215
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,760
injectable hyaluronic acid.

216
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,480
So it's not technically a filler though it is made of the same things fillers made of

217
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:32,480
right.

218
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,320
And there's like 10 injection points there.

219
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,920
So a few years back or even still these are called skin boosters.

220
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:38,920
OK.

221
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,460
I don't know if you've heard that term like skin boosters but it used to be like a hundred

222
00:08:41,460 --> 00:08:45,440
little injections around your face like this facial or is it.

223
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:49,640
I mean an intense facial that where they're giving you a hundred jabs.

224
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:55,200
I had it once and I remember telling my husband never again like a hundred jabs in the circumference

225
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,500
of my face.

226
00:08:56,500 --> 00:08:57,500
Never again.

227
00:08:57,500 --> 00:08:59,760
I hate needles so I wouldn't even get one jab.

228
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:00,760
Yeah.

229
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,160
Like 10 is already like we're already pushing it with 10.

230
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,160
Maybe it's eight or whatever.

231
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,000
There's like just like specific injection sites.

232
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,960
But what I love about it is that it lasts for a year.

233
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:10,960
Amazing.

234
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,780
And it really transforms the surface of your skin.

235
00:09:13,780 --> 00:09:16,800
So it's like it's not like a filler where like you put it in and then that's where it

236
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:17,800
is.

237
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,240
It's like it just makes your entire skin a better texture.

238
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,240
Nice.

239
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,760
For a while like plumper shinier.

240
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:25,760
I'm intrigued.

241
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:26,760
Yeah.

242
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:27,760
It's needles girl.

243
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:32,200
And this is again you know since we're being real on this episode like it's a cannula.

244
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,400
So it's a giant needle.

245
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:34,400
Oh my god.

246
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:39,000
And then like the stuff goes in so you can like feel your skin expanding where the cannula

247
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,000
is injected.

248
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,880
It's you know it's not an easy procedure.

249
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,320
Although again if you're okay with needles it's just like annoying.

250
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,800
Do you get bruised afterwards?

251
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Yeah.

252
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,800
Yeah.

253
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,600
Again if your skin is as thin as mine yeah you bruise with everything.

254
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,600
Yeah.

255
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,320
Like I feel like I feel like you touch my face with a with a makeup brush.

256
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,000
It's like oh is that a little bruise?

257
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,000
It might be.

258
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,520
But yeah so like the injectables I think are like massive for me because just my collagen

259
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:06,400
and the skin damage is just like two things that I could have worked harder on as a youth.

260
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:11,840
So if you somehow are a youth listening to this if you're a Gen Z person take the f care

261
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:12,920
of your skin.

262
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,240
Don't go in the sun and drink alcohol.

263
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,600
Drink water and stay in the shade.

264
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:19,600
Hydrate.

265
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,960
Yeah hydrate and like also just you know do everything for your natural collagen because

266
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:27,040
again Tyler will be the first person my husband will be the first person to always say like

267
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:32,240
we don't need enough chicken feet and connective tissues and all those collagen rich foods.

268
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:38,160
Okay so when I first met my husband he and he eats a chicken wing.

269
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,760
He eats the chicken wing.

270
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,280
He will eat like everything.

271
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,680
Like it's just a thin little bone.

272
00:10:44,680 --> 00:10:45,680
It's just a bone.

273
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:46,680
Like Tyler too.

274
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:49,720
Put it in his mouth and I used to you know save my bones for him.

275
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,440
I'll be like that sounds really weird right.

276
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,200
But basically I would eat my chicken and he'd be like there's so much shit on there.

277
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,200
You've got so much.

278
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,200
Oh my gosh.

279
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,320
I will eat this.

280
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:02,160
And now it's gotten to the point where I have turned into him.

281
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,040
Now he's like you don't need anything on the bone for me.

282
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,040
Do you do the same now?

283
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,040
I don't.

284
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,040
I'm still terrible.

285
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,320
And he's constantly telling me how terrible I am because I'll still leave the collagen

286
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,320
rich.

287
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,760
Yeah I eat the cartilage now.

288
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,600
I don't know it's just become one of those things.

289
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,720
I'm like I just do it.

290
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:23,280
I can't that feeling even one little piece of cartilage if I get it accidentally.

291
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:24,280
I can't handle it.

292
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,040
Like I have to spit it out.

293
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,080
I know it's the good part but I can't do it.

294
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,280
As far as I can go is like the collagen hot pot and beauty in the pot.

295
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,840
I know exactly what you mean.

296
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,800
But I used to buy the frozen packets from the supermarket.

297
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:43,120
So I have been using that in you know like if I'm making rice or if I'm making spaghetti

298
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,200
bolognese I'll use that instead of stock.

299
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,200
That's smart.

300
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,200
That's actually very smart.

301
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,800
It's the secret collagen that you don't have to chew on.

302
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:50,800
Which I can't stand.

303
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,280
I've kind of got into it now.

304
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaking of the collagen and profilo and weight loss and all this stuff thing.

305
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,400
So there's a new thing that I might try.

306
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,600
Still haven't committed because yet again with the three weight gains and losses and

307
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,280
being older mom and blah blah blah.

308
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,000
I have so much loose skin on my midsection like an outrage.

309
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,920
What I can think is an outrageous amount.

310
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,280
I've got a fupa.

311
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,320
Did you see Emily Oster's thing about the fupa?

312
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,320
No.

313
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:18,320
Do you know who Emily Oster is?

314
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,320
No.

315
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:20,320
Okay.

316
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,120
So Emily Oster is the author of Crib Sheet.

317
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,120
She's the author of.

318
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,120
She just released a new book about when things go wrong.

319
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,400
But she's a parenting data expert.

320
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,480
So she has a membership called Parent Data.

321
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,480
And you pay for it.

322
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,480
Very inexpensive.

323
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:39,840
But you pay for it and then you get basically the up to date research backed answers to

324
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:40,840
super common questions.

325
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,240
Oh isn't this the lady that you're sending me.

326
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:45,240
Yes.

327
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,520
So Jillian Goddard is her partner.

328
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,280
She does the paramanopause half.

329
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,640
Emily Oster does like the kids and baby half.

330
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,560
So she just released a whole thing about the fupa.

331
00:12:54,560 --> 00:12:57,280
Is there science behind fupa?

332
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:58,280
How do you get rid of it?

333
00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,280
First of all, would you like to.

334
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,280
Okay.

335
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,760
This is going to be a great game.

336
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,840
Paul, what do you think fupa might stand for?

337
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:07,840
F-U-P-A.

338
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:08,840
It's an acronym.

339
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:09,840
What do you think?

340
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,600
Just like give it a shot in the dark on a woman's physicality.

341
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,960
I don't know like like like face or something.

342
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:18,960
I like face.

343
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:19,960
I prefer face.

344
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:20,960
Yeah.

345
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,960
Face is good.

346
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:22,960
Fupa.

347
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:23,960
Fupa.

348
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:24,960
No idea.

349
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,440
Bless your heart.

350
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,240
So fupa.

351
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,360
So I will tell you the nice version.

352
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:32,360
Yes please.

353
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,000
Do you think the not nice version?

354
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,000
Maybe just say it.

355
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Okay.

356
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,000
So in Emily Oster's data, it's the fat upper pubic area.

357
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,000
Yeah.

358
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,120
But that's not what I have heard it refers to as.

359
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:44,720
I've heard it the fat upper pussy area.

360
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,720
Let's be real.

361
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,720
Okay.

362
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:47,720
Like that.

363
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,400
But it's like right above the pubic area and it's just like a flap.

364
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:51,400
The overhang.

365
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:52,400
The overhang.

366
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:53,400
Yes.

367
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,400
Yes.

368
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:55,400
Yeah.

369
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,400
And so men can technically have a fupa.

370
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:00,840
Because they also have a pubic bone.

371
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:01,840
Yes.

372
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,120
But the other term I think is more what women think of.

373
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,920
And she was saying basically it's four things.

374
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:09,920
Right.

375
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:10,920
So it's C-sections.

376
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:11,920
Right.

377
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:12,920
And it's just.

378
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:18,640
It's just where the scar, how the scar healed and just segmenting two parts of where.

379
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,440
Second thing is just excess body fat.

380
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:21,440
Yeah.

381
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,440
That's another one.

382
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:23,440
Third thing is excess skin.

383
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,360
I've got all three of them.

384
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,480
And fourth thing is age.

385
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:32,400
Just the way that gravity settles your sex specific fat area.

386
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:33,400
Yeah.

387
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:34,400
Right.

388
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:35,400
So yeah.

389
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,920
So she's saying like you know it's literally surgery.

390
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,360
If you have a fupa that is so concerning that it's like you just have to.

391
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:42,360
Yeah.

392
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,760
I mean I've looked into all methods and I know that surgery.

393
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:45,760
But then.

394
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:46,760
Oh diastasis.

395
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:47,760
Sorry I didn't ask.

396
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,760
Diastasis recti.

397
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:49,760
Yes.

398
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:50,760
Yeah sorry.

399
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:51,760
Again that's another thing.

400
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,880
I think basically all of those reasons of why I have it.

401
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,380
And I know that surgery is the only way.

402
00:14:56,380 --> 00:14:59,160
But then the thought of going under.

403
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:00,160
For just that.

404
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,160
Just that.

405
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,160
Yeah.

406
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,520
Going through like you know it's a traumatic experience again.

407
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:05,520
Like physically.

408
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,520
Yeah.

409
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,920
You know it could be mentally but physically it's trauma again.

410
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:09,920
And cutting you open.

411
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:10,920
Getting rid of all that shit.

412
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,920
Yeah.

413
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:12,920
And it hurts.

414
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:13,920
So it's just like the pain of getting shot in the buttocks.

415
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,760
And I do I really want to screw with my body any more than it's already been screwed with.

416
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:17,760
I don't know.

417
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,320
Well I have a client who did the thing which sounds really glamorous and theory right.

418
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,160
So she on her last C section knew it was her last C section so got the tummy tuck right

419
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:26,160
then and there.

420
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,160
Right.

421
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:28,160
Like did it.

422
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,160
But is it worth it at that time.

423
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,160
Well here's what I'll say right.

424
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,160
So a couple of things.

425
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,480
It first of all her stomach is miraculously flat.

426
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,420
I mean flat like a piece of paper.

427
00:15:35,420 --> 00:15:36,420
Like a board.

428
00:15:36,420 --> 00:15:38,100
You know because it's taut.

429
00:15:38,100 --> 00:15:39,100
Yeah.

430
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:40,100
Right.

431
00:15:40,100 --> 00:15:41,100
Like a natural flat stomach like.

432
00:15:41,100 --> 00:15:45,020
It moves. Yeah. I mean, like this is like it's taught like a drum, like the skin of a drum.

433
00:15:45,020 --> 00:15:53,180
Yeah. But what's interesting is this client has not super great control of her core because,

434
00:15:53,180 --> 00:15:58,460
you know, back to our Zempik thing, right? Because when your stomach is flat, visibly,

435
00:15:59,180 --> 00:16:04,700
you tend to stop doing the core work as much because you get the aesthetic that you want

436
00:16:04,700 --> 00:16:10,060
without the work behind it. Right. So she actually has pretty poor core engagement. She doesn't have

437
00:16:10,060 --> 00:16:14,540
a ton of mobility in the core, like because the skin is so tight, she doesn't have a great deal

438
00:16:14,540 --> 00:16:19,340
of flexion extension. She doesn't have a great deal of rotation and her lower back suffers because

439
00:16:19,340 --> 00:16:24,860
of it. So, you know, again, back to the like shortcuts to get things, like they're not always

440
00:16:25,580 --> 00:16:30,620
as great as you think, you know, because then you tend to skip the work that actually gets the thing.

441
00:16:30,620 --> 00:16:35,900
And again, I would rather have a strong core and a fupa than a tummy tuck and back pain. That's,

442
00:16:35,900 --> 00:16:39,180
I mean, that's just my personal choice. Like there's back pain is the worst. Yeah. Right.

443
00:16:39,180 --> 00:16:43,340
Like I wouldn't, I wouldn't be going for it. Yeah. But yeah, so back to the whole thing,

444
00:16:43,340 --> 00:16:48,860
I might get the profilo injection in my stomach to see if it can regenerate some of the collagen

445
00:16:48,860 --> 00:16:54,060
of that area. But to be honestly fair, I think it's too far gone. Like I don't, I just think with my

446
00:16:54,060 --> 00:16:59,260
age and the size of the, of the stomach that it was, like, I just don't think it can go. And three

447
00:16:59,260 --> 00:17:04,300
pregnancies, right? So it's not like rapid fire. Yeah. Like, I just don't think it can go back.

448
00:17:04,300 --> 00:17:12,460
I am not confident it will work. So, oh, well, you know, I mean, the thing is I feel like you

449
00:17:12,460 --> 00:17:19,100
put in so much effort with everything else that you're doing. It's showing everywhere else.

450
00:17:19,820 --> 00:17:25,260
Guys, if you don't know, Amanda has the most amazing shoulders. Thank you. I will, I will

451
00:17:25,260 --> 00:17:28,780
appreciate that. But although that is, that is nature's gift, you know, that is less a training

452
00:17:28,780 --> 00:17:34,060
stimulus. But you still train. But yeah, I still train. But I mean, it's definitely not like the,

453
00:17:34,060 --> 00:17:39,820
the main focus of my training. Okay. That is our 20 minute gap. So, but yeah, but just to wrap this

454
00:17:39,820 --> 00:17:45,820
up, I think it's really important that women talk about what they do, what they want to do and feel

455
00:17:45,820 --> 00:17:49,820
open with what they want to do. I can't tell you how many people come into the clinic and pay cash

456
00:17:49,820 --> 00:17:54,300
for their aesthetic procedures because they're hiding from their husbands. Like, come on ladies,

457
00:17:54,300 --> 00:18:00,060
like it is 2024 own what you want to do with your body and do it, put your money behind it. You

458
00:18:00,060 --> 00:18:04,620
don't need, you know, you don't need to hide behind cash to get a couple of units of Botox

459
00:18:04,620 --> 00:18:10,540
to make your frown line go away. Like, let, let us be real with like how non-judgmental that needs

460
00:18:10,540 --> 00:18:14,380
to be. Just a really quick one. What do you think of the lips when people get their lips done? I

461
00:18:14,380 --> 00:18:18,540
mean, I've had my lips done. I just do it supernaturally. So no one, see, yeah, I would

462
00:18:18,540 --> 00:18:22,940
never have known. Thank you. But you would notice if they were super thin and I looked old, I just

463
00:18:22,940 --> 00:18:27,260
would notice if they were super thin and I looked old. I think the thing with aesthetics is like,

464
00:18:27,260 --> 00:18:31,820
you should do it so that no one would ever notice. If that makes sense. Like they just notice that

465
00:18:31,820 --> 00:18:37,820
you don't look old and shitty. They don't say, wow, your lips are so big. They're just not small

466
00:18:37,820 --> 00:18:43,100
or like, oh, your face is so Botox frozen. No, it's just not super full of wrinkles.

467
00:18:46,540 --> 00:18:50,780
That's the new paradigm. It's like, it's just the absence of aging rather than

468
00:18:50,780 --> 00:19:00,300
looking specifically made up. Amazing. There we go. So guys just own it.
