GLP-1s and bariatric surgery can both help with weight loss, but they work in very different ways. ⚖️

GLP-1s are prescription medications that act on your brain, digestion, and cravings. They help you feel full longer, make high-calorie foods less tempting and support steady weight loss while you’re on them.

Bariatric surgery, on the other hand, physically changes the structure of your digestive system. It changes the way your body feels hunger and fullness — and can even start improving type 2 diabetes in a matter of days.

Both options deliver proven results, but each comes with its own timeline, ongoing care, and lifestyle commitments.

But the best choice? The one that fits your health, goals and long-term plan. 🫶🏼📈🏃🏼‍♀️

They say “just a nurse” like it’s a small thing. We’re sharing this because it’s not.

Nurses are the ones who explain the scary stuff in ways you understand. Who stay a minute longer so you don’t feel alone. Who show up in moments big and small — bringing comfort, clarity and care without asking for recognition.

This post is for them. The ones who carry so much and show up with heart.

To every nurse who makes the impossible feel possible — we see you and thank you. 💜

E-bikes are becoming a popular way for Connecticut teens to get around. But, the state is seeing more crashes that have led to serious injuries — and even fatalities.

To help protect young riders, Connecticut is introducing stricter speed limits and updated e-bike laws. These changes are meant to keep everyone safer on the road. Safety also starts with the steps kids and parents follow before and during each ride.🛡️

Wearing a helmet, following traffic laws, using lights and reflectors and staying alert can help prevent accidents. ✅

Scroll for tips to help keep kids safe on e-bikes.

Alicia couldn’t chew or talk without pain. Now she’s singing in the car again.

After a hoverboard accident in 2024, Alicia Gonzalez was left with a jaw injury that made eating, speaking and everyday life painful.

Headaches were constant. Chewing was nearly impossible. Nothing helped — until she started physical therapy at Putnam Hospital.

Working with therapist Robin Kushner, Alicia followed a specialized program that changed everything.

“I’m not depressed anymore. I feel hopeful. I can enjoy food again. I can sing. And I don’t have headaches anymore.”

Putnam Hospital offers physical therapy for TMJ that helps patients regain movement, reduce pain and get their quality of life back.

Let’s talk about those “just one” moments.

Just one cigarette at the cookout.
Just one v**e hit on the porch.

It might not feel like much — but over time, it adds up.

Studies show people smoke more during the summer, and teens are more likely to start va**ng in late spring. Warmer weather, more social time and outdoor hangouts can make those “just one” choices easier to justify.

🚭 Even one cigarette a day can damage your lungs and increase your risk of cancer.
💨 Va**ng isn’t a safe alternative either.
🫁 Quitting completely is still the best choice for your long-term lung health.

Dr. Byron Patton, a thoracic surgeon and lung cancer expert, explains the science behind it — and how to take the next step.

Ozzy Osbourne didn’t just leave behind a legacy of music; he left behind a message.

After being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, Ozzy continued to show up, speak out and do what he loved most. In July 2025, he gave one final performance in front of 45,000 fans and helped raise over $190 million with a portion of it going to Parkinson’s research.

His story is a reminder about the importance of understanding the signs and the progress being made in Parkinson’s treatments to help people live as well as possible. It can start with subtle signs — stiffness, sleep problems, smaller handwriting or changes you can’t quite explain. And the sooner you catch it, the more options you have to manage it.

Thank you, Ozzy, for showing us what strength looks like — loud, unfiltered and still rocking. You didn’t just raise the volume. You raised awareness. 🖤🎸🧠⚡️
