Lately I’ve been reminded how easy it is to slip into the rat race of life. Busy schedules, endless to-do lists, and stress can pull us into survival mode—and we forget to pause and just breathe.

Even after facing cancer 9 years ago, I still catch myself moving too fast, forgetting the gift that life is. Gratitude doesn’t always scream loud—it often whispers, “Look around. You’ve come so far.”

So today, I’m choosing to slow down, breathe deeper, and give thanks for it all—the hard, the healing, and the ordinary.

Life is too precious to live on autopilot.
Let’s feel it. Let’s live it. Let’s thank God for it.

If the enemy can get you to doubt, he can keep you distracted. Doubt whispers lies, making you question your worth, your purpose, and your progress.

But remember: doubt is just a detour. Stay grounded in truth, lean into faith, and take the next step anyway. Victory is ahead if you refuse to give up.

After 8 years of being a breast cancer survivor, I finally have my wedding ring back on my finger! ✨

Due to lymphedema in my left arm, I haven’t been able to wear it since surgery, and it took me a while to accept that I’d need to resize it—two sizes! I didn’t realize how much I missed wearing it until now. 💍

Lymphedema is something many don’t talk about, but it’s a real possibility after cancer surgery, especially with lymph node removal. It causes swelling, typically in the arms and can happen even years after surgery or treatment.

Early signs include swelling, tightness, or heaviness in the affected area. It’s crucial to catch it early to prevent it from progressing—there are treatments to help manage it!

Here are 4 tips to help prevent lymphedema after breast cancer surgery:

1. Stay Active: Gentle exercises like walking, stretching, and light arm movements help promote healthy circulation and reduce the risk of fluid buildup. Keep moving to support lymphatic flow! 🏃‍♀️

2. Protect Your Arm: Small cuts or infections can trigger lymphedema, so take care of your skin. 🧤

3. Maintain a Healthy Weight: Being at a healthy weight can help reduce the risk of lymphedema. A balanced diet and regular activity support overall health and lymphatic function. 🍎🏋️‍♀️

4. Practice Gentle Compression: Wearing a compression sleeve or garment can help prevent swelling, especially during activities or long flights. Compression promotes lymphatic drainage and keeps the swelling at bay. 🧦

Early prevention is key—take care of your body and be mindful of any changes! 💪

And don’t be like me and wait so long to get your ring enlarged! I didn’t think it bothered me but having it back on my finger again is like getting a piece of me back! It really caught me by surprise by how good I felt once I got it back on my finger.

Have you or someone you love experienced lymphedema?

Did your last 3 attempts to reach your health goals fall flat? Comment START for personalized advice on how to get started with a plan.

If you’ve been struggling with plans that don’t stick, you’re not alone. Here’s why your past strategies might have fallen short:

➡️ They’re often not nutritionally balanced. Without a full spectrum of nutrients, your body can’t thrive.

➡️ They can lead to yo-yo dieting. Quick fixes usually result in temporary success and long-term frustration.

➡️ They’re not sustainable long-term. Extreme restrictions or fad plans are hard to maintain over time.

➡️ Focus on balanced, whole-food meal prep instead. It offers lasting results and supports overall health.

“After struggling with multiple plans that never lasted, I finally tried personalized meal prep. Not only did I achieve my goals, but I also feel healthier and more energetic every day!”
