This is an excellent webinar for my lipedema and lymphedema patients! I am not endorsing “The Faster Way to Fat Loss” although I am following the program myself and loving the transformation that my body is having. The entire first half of the webinar they are exactly describing what happens with hormones and building of adipose tissue and the cycle that creates. Let me know if you have any questions!

Are you looking to start a new weight loss or exercise program in the new year? Don’t rely on a scale to track your progress. Consider Bioimpedance Testing which is a non invasive and quick way of measuring body composition in each segment of your body- muscle, fat and body water. Visit my website for more details to see a better way to know exactly what you need to do to help you get healthier. Book before the New Year to get a baseline. This a great way to use your Flex Spending funds before you lose them! Call me for an appointment 401-575-6266.

The InBody 770 measures your Body Composition which is a method of describing what your body is made of including: water, protein (muscles, organs, and bones), minerals (blood stream and inside bones), and fat. They are further divided into two categories: Fat Mass and Fat Free Mass. Fat Free Ma.....

The progress of this bill needs to be updated. While attending the NLN conference at the Cleveland Clinic today they announced the Lymphedema Treatment Act PASSED in the House today 😁. This means that those that are covered my Medicare will soon have coverage for their compression garments! Anyone who has dealt with lymphedema knows that to control your lymphedema you need properly fitting compression garments. Sometime this means that you need a custom garment which can range anywhere from $200 to thousands of dollars. This is an amazing step to helping patients take control of lymphedema instead of lymphedema taking control of them. Thank you to all of those who put in tireless hours to make this happen including Kathy Bates!
