Yeah, and what kind of things do you mean by working on yourself physically and mentally? What, what were you doing in that time to help yourself?

So the first thing I did, I changed my diet.

I went to the anti-inflammatory diet.

And, uh, at that beginning with the medications, I was starting to lose weight, which was not perfectly for me because when you hike and you have, like, a big backpack, you need to have strength.

Losing the, uh, the kilos, I also lost my strength.

Uh, and then I decided, okay, it's time that I have to do something because I'm gonna lose, lose more and more.

So I went to, to the gym.
