Join me Thursday 10/23 1:00 ET for a makeup tutorial. My makeup takes 10 minutes to do everything , I’ll slow it down and show you what I do.

I’m not a makeup expert, I’m an expert at watching TikTok and using the FAFO approach. As part of my glow up from last fall I’ve been more into my colors and all about the makeup for my skin. This is what’s working for me right now!

Come with a clean face and moisturizer on or just watch.

I’ll use foundation, bronzer, blush, highlighter, eyeshadow, mascara and concealer. Plus all the brushes.

Only One of Us Burped!

This morning on my Day 2 Meno Belly Reset Challenge call, we did something a little different…
The baking soda test 👩‍🔬

It’s a simple at-home way to check how well your stomach acid is doing its job.
And out of everyone on the call only ONE woman burped at 1 minute 30 seconds.
No one else (including me 😅) did!

So what does that mean?
Low stomach acid is way more common than you’d think, especially for women in midlife.
And when your stomach acid is low, you might notice things like:
• Feeling full or heavy after small meals
• Burping or bloating after eating
• Gas, reflux, or sluggish digestion
• Cravings or nutrient deficiencies that don’t make sense

Most women assume they have too much acid, but the truth is, for many of us, it’s the opposite.
When your stomach acid is low, food doesn’t break down properly, and that’s when bloating, discomfort, and inflammation show up.

Here’s how you can try the Baking Soda Test yourself:
1️⃣ Mix ¼ teaspoon of baking soda in 4–6 oz of water (room temp or cold).
2️⃣ Drink it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
3️⃣ Time how long it takes to burp.
• Within 1–2 minutes → healthy acid levels
• 3–5 minutes or no burp → possible low stomach acid

Don’t panic if nothing happens, it’s common and fixable.
Simple changes like slowing down your meals and chewing well can make a huge difference.

How to maintain your weight while having an active social life.

We all know the hardest part of weight loss isn’t weight loss itself, it’s maintaining that weight loss.

After losing 16 lbs in 8 weeks for a photo shoot, I learned some things about myself and a few new tricks.

I committed to maintaining healthy habits to help make maintaining my weight easier while still enjoying trips, date nights and wild weekends in Vegas.

1. Protein, protein, protein. I prioritize protein. I don’t track usually, just mentally tally how much I’m having at each meal to hit my goal of 150 grams per day when I’m at home, 125 when I’m traveling.

2. Win breakfast, win the day. I always front load my day with a high protein breakfast. It’s a habit that I stick to when traveling as well.

3. Water, I front load my water too! I shoot for 120-150 oz of watwr and it’s been a gamechanger. I recently bought a 40 oz hydro jug. I fill that 3-4x a day, 2x in the am and it really helps. I also bring a water bottle with me when im traveling because I need that visual reminder to drink water.

4. I decreased the cream in my coffee and have cut way back on cheese. I used to put cheese on everything and liberally added cream to my coffee. That’s just piling on fat calories that I don’t even miss.

The first 2 habits have been ingrained in me since my first transformation in 2019 and have served me well.

Doing an aggressive diet rewired my brain and changed my taste for lots of cream in my coffee and decreased my hunger cues.

I no longer snack mindlessly. This frees up plenty of calories for those fun meals and nights out with adult beverages that I’ve been know to enjoy 😉

If you’re ready to rewire your brain, get rid of the food noise and lose excess fat quickly, check out the video I made.

I explain how the Katalyst Fat Loss Accelerator works inside our 90-day Be Hot program to help you lose fat quickly and strategically.

If this resonates with you, I’ll create a quick personalized 5-minute video showing you what your weekly rate of fat loss could look like and exactly how we’d approach it for you.
