I TOOK A BREAK. MY BODY FILED A COMPLAINT. 😂
Almost two months into testing the women’s formula I’ve been developing, I wanted to share a little behind-the-scenes update.
Here’s what I’ve noticed during that time:
✨ Down 15 pounds.
✨ Deep, sound sleep—the kind where you actually wake up feeling refreshed.
✨ Early mornings, late nights, and no usual midday crash.
✨ Feeling more comfortable in a body that has been through a rebuilt leg, hip injuries, and plenty of wear and tear.
Then I stopped taking it for two weeks. I wanted to pay attention to how I felt off it, too.
Days 1–5: Still feeling good. Nothing much changed.
Around day 7: Okay… why am I so tired?
By day 9: The familiar aches were creeping back.
By day 14: I was reaching for ibuprofen again.
That break gave me plenty to write down. 👀
This is my personal experience while developing the formula. It doesn’t prove what caused each change, but it absolutely helps me decide what to investigate and track next.
Needless to say, I’m going back on it.
Formulator notebook: open.
My body’s review: “Let’s not do that again.” 😂
More from the kitchen soon. 🖤
