Do you have thinning hair or brittle nails?
Have you heard of Amino Acids? They are the building blocks of all proteins, and your body uses proteins to build tissue cells — including those of your skin, hair, and nails. Amino Acids also support building healthy muscle, reduce muscle soreness after exercise and activate muscle protein synthesis.
Not all Amino Acids are the same. I have a premium formula which provides 10 grams of EAAs in each serving, including 5.3 grams of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs). The easy-to-blend drink mix comes in two refreshing flavors, Strawberry Lemonade and Orange Mango, both of which contain no flavors, colors, or sweeteners from artificial sources and no stimulants.
Ask me for more information on how you can incorporate EAA's into your healthy lifestyle.

Are you using or thinking of using semiglutide (GLP-1) injections?
These medications can be an incredible tool when used wisely. But there’s a healthy and unhealthy way to use them, and my goal is to make sure you don’t end up “skinny fat” with a compromised metabolism and poor metabolic health.
If you’re relying solely on the medication to suppress your appetite, slow digestion, and eat less to lose weight, you may be putting yourself at risk for the same health issues associated with obesity. This isn’t meant to scare you—it’s about being real.
I understand how much you want to lose the weight. I get that the medication is helping quiet the constant noise around food and making it easier to shed pounds. It’s exciting to feel the weight come off and have more energy.
But without proper support, you’re harming your metabolic health. If your doctor’s only strategy is increasing the dose until it “works,” I’m genuinely concerned for you. There’s a looming issue here that by 2030, it’s estimated that 50 million people in the U.S. will be using these medications. Unfortunately, many will still face the same diseases they were trying to avoid due to metabolic damage.
The reality is, 70% of people regain the weight within a year of stopping the medication. And even while on it, everyone hits a plateau. Worse, the weight loss is often disproportionately muscle—your metabolic health’s biggest ally.
The weight WILL COME OFF but notice what’s happening to your arms, back, and overall muscle tone. This isn’t just about being thin; it’s about being healthy at the end of this journey.
If you’re serious about your health—if that’s why you started this medication in the first place—let’s talk. No sales pitch, no pressure. Just a free conversation to help you avoid the pitfalls and achieve your goals the right way. Skinny and sick is not the goal. Healthy and strong is.💪

When I find myself sitting a lot, my back and hips get tight and sore. I found these 9 stretches are great to do every day. There are variations where you can do them standing and holding onto a chair too.

When my husband is looking for a pair of pants, instead of trying them on he wraps the waistband around his neck. He read somewhere that your waist is double your neck circumference. Of course I laughed at him until I tried it myself and it works!!
A 37" - 40" waist for men is high risk and 31.5" - 34.5" for women is high risk for disease

This image shows a 250 lb woman on the left and a 120 lb woman on the right. We can see weight gain from the outside, but we usually can't see what it's doing on the inside. Look at the fat surrounding the organs in the woman on the left. Do you also see the fat around her heart and around her brain? A little scary, isn't it? Look at the compression around the stomach and internal organs. Do you think that would have any impact on GERD and indigestion? Look at the compressed knee joints. Do you think those joints ache a little more than they should?
I coach a wellness program that addresses fat loss and creating healthy habits. I have years of experience and success stories. Let me know if you are ready for change and we can take some steps together.❤
