As a working mom with two jobs, a small business, two busy kids and a husband who doesn’t stop…..sometimes there aren’t enough hours in the day to do all of the things I NEED to do let alone WANT or should be doing. Sometimes needed movement looks like bribing my 9 year old with Starbucks and deep cleaning that small business on a beautiful day while we have the time. Sometimes the little wins mean the most. Now I need to finish cleaning so we can watch football and enjoy the rest of this beautiful fall day! GO HAWKS!! IYKYK 🖤💛🖤💛

Perimenopause is about more than hormones. It’s also about protecting your strength, mobility, bone health, and quality of life. 💪🏼

That’s where Alisa, our DPT, comes in. She can help identify movement limitations, build strength safely, address pain or injuries, and create an individualized plan to keep you moving confidently through every stage of menopause.

Because feeling better isn’t just about how you feel today—it’s about building a stronger, more capable body for the years ahead. 🤍

Hormones + movement + strength = a more complete approach to women’s health.

🥩🥔🍎 **Want to lose weight without feeling hungry? Start with the Satiety Index.**

Not all calories keep you full the same way.

The **Satiety Index** ranks foods based on how satisfied they leave you after eating. Choosing foods higher on this scale can naturally reduce cravings, decrease snacking, and make weight loss feel much easier.

⭐ Some of the highest satiety foods include:
• 🥔 Boiled potatoes
• 🥚 Eggs
• 🐟 Fish
• 🥩 Lean beef
• 🧀 Cottage cheese
• 🥣 Oatmeal
• 🍎 Apples
• 🫘 Beans and lentils
• 🥦 Non-starchy vegetables
• 🍿 Air-popped popcorn

Foods that are **high in protein, fiber, and water** tend to keep you fuller longer than ultra-processed foods that digest quickly.

💡 Remember: Weight loss isn't about being hungry all day. It's about making choices that work *with* your body's biology—not against it.

If you're constantly hungry while trying to lose weight, it may not be a lack of willpower. It may be that your meals aren't providing enough satiety.

At You Turn Balance, we help you build a sustainable plan that combines nutrition, movement, hormones, and (when appropriate) medications to help you reach your goals—without feeling deprived.

**Noticing more breakouts since starting a GLP-1 medication? You're not imagining it. 👀**

While medications like GLP-1s can be incredible tools for improving metabolic health and supporting weight loss, some people notice unexpected skin changes—including acne or breakouts.

Here's why it can happen:

✨ **Hormonal shifts** – As your body loses fat, stored hormones can be released, temporarily affecting oil production and triggering acne.

✨ **Changes in nutrition** – Eating less can sometimes mean you're not getting enough protein, healthy fats, zinc, or other nutrients that support healthy skin.

✨ **Stress on the body** – Rapid weight loss is a major physiological change. Increased cortisol and inflammation can contribute to breakouts.

✨ **Changes in skincare needs** – As your skin changes, the products that used to work may no longer be the best fit.

The good news? **You don't have to choose between reaching your health goals and having healthy skin.**

At You Turn, we take a whole-body approach. We look beyond the prescription by helping optimize nutrition, supporting hormones, recommending targeted supplements when appropriate, and creating customized skincare treatments to calm inflammation and restore your skin.

Your skin is often a reflection of what's happening inside your body—and when we support both, that's where the magic happens. ✨

Have you noticed changes in your skin while on a GLP-1? We'd love to help you feel confident in your health **and** your skin.

Did you know that strength training becomes even more important during perimenopause and menopause?

As estrogen declines, it's not just your muscles and bones that change—your tendons do too. Tendons become thinner, stiffer, and less able to tolerate stress, increasing your risk of strains, tendon injuries, and nagging aches and pains.

That's why jumping into a new workout routine without proper guidance can sometimes do more harm than good.

Strength training is one of the best things you can do to maintain muscle, support bone density, boost metabolism, and protect your joints—but how you train matters.

💪 That's where Alisa, our Doctor of Physical Therapy, comes in.

She'll evaluate how your body moves, identify muscle imbalances and mobility limitations, and design a personalized resistance training program that helps you build strength safely while reducing your risk of injury.

The goal isn't just to lift weights—it's to build a body that's strong, resilient, and prepared for the years ahead.

Don't let fear of injury keep you from getting stronger. Let us help you move with confidence.

📍Schedule a movement assessment/evaluation with Alisa and invest in your future strength.

No, that's not a typo. A few years ago my kids decided they wanted to make a banner for Daddy for Father's Day. They made each page it's own letter and they were working on it with my aunt. When they were all done they taped it together and in their hurried haste to get it hung, they accidentally taped the pages in the wrong order. But, Daddy was on his way downstairs so they quick hung up a banner that made them beam with pride and it read "Happy Father's Yad!" We all got a big kick out of it and every year I wish my husband a Happy Father's Yad.

Father's Day is a reminder that the best moments in life aren't found in the busy schedules, endless to-do lists, or the things we buy—they're found in the time we spend together.

Today was filled with family, laughter, conversations, and making memories with the people who matter most. We're grateful for the dads, grandpas, stepdads, and father figures who show up every day with love, strength, guidance, and support.

Here's to the men who work hard, sacrifice quietly, and help keep their families moving forward. We hope your day was spent doing what matters most—making memories with the people you love.

Happy Father's Day! ❤️
