I think at that point, you got to ask yourself like, okay, society has defined beauty and good looks in this way. And basically I'm succumbing to that pressure of society to look a certain way. Because if we're talking about being healthy Well, being healthy and having a six pack are not necessarily the same thing. There are people who will have a six pack, they'll be jacked, whatever, but they're not healthy. Because number one, because of okay, maybe steroids, but also living with a calorie deficit and so on.
