GF DF Upside Down Apple Pie Cheesecake 🍎

It’s like an Apple pie and cheesecake had a situationship… and honestly, I’m here for it 🤌🏻 I mean therapy is great but have you ever tried turning a cheesecake upside and letting all your problems fall into place?! Well, you should try it…

It starts with a buttery spiced cookie crust packed up the sides of the pan. Next comes a creamy no-bake cheesecake filling, with cinnamon-maple apple pie filling hidden right in the center. Chill it overnight, flip it upside down, then crack right through the crust and drown it all in warm brown sugar salted caramel.

And yes, it’s completely gluten-free AND dairy-free, but you’d never know it. Every layer is still rich, cozy and SO satisfying. This is my new fall dessert for every gathering, every holiday and every “I just need cheesecake” Tuesday 🫣

Comment “RECIPE” and I’ll send it straight to you, or grab the full recipe on my Substack, Still Hungry (link in bio) Sending out to all my subscribers tomorrow 🩷

My sweet tooth has been off the charts this month!

This Avocado Chocolate Mousse is what I make when I want something that feels like a little treat… but still supports my hormones, blood sugar, and mood (because cortisol doesn’t clock out just because were tired or its dark outside. This is proof that your dessert can have emotional intelligence and serve you well 🤌🏻

I love it because:
✨ it’s rich and creamy without the sugar crash
✨ healthy fats = happy hormones
✨ naturally sweetened so your energy stays stable
✨ no dairy = no mystery bloat the next day
✨ takes 5 minutes and zero baking (because we’re tired, not lazy)

It’s giving: “I need to fulfill my chocolate desires”
…but also: “I want to wake up tomorrow without inflammation, brain fog, or regret.”

Girls who are balancing metabolism and their nervous system are not eating a sleeve of Oreos at 10pm anymore — we’re evolving from our crash outs. Simple, easy and nutrious!

🔥 On a GLP-1? Here’s Why Make Wellness FIT + HYDRATED Matter More Than You Think.

Medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro can absolutely help the scale move and have helped thousands achieve weightloss that was previously never in reach.

One thing to keep in mind is weight loss doesnt always equal fat loss, it’s also muscle!

When appetite drops, most people naturally:
• Eat less protein
• Drink less water
• Lose lean muscle
• Feel more fatigued
• Experience headaches or constipation
• See their metabolism slow over time

And that’s the part no one talks about 👀

✨ Appetite Down = Protein Down
GLP-1s lowers your hunger cues — which means many women aren’t getting enough protein to protect muscle while in a calorie deficit. Both are key!

✨ Eating Less Often = Drinking Less
Nausea + slowed digestion can also reduce fluid intake, leading to mild dehydration (which impacts energy, digestion, and performance).

That’s why supporting your body with:
💪 FIT – to help maintain lean muscle + metabolic signaling
💧 HYDRATED – to support electrolyte balance + cellular hydration

…can make a HUGE difference in how you feel and what kind of weight you’re actually losing.

Because the real win isn’t just a smaller number on the scale —
it’s better body composition, energy, and long-term metabolism.

⚡ Protect muscle
⚡ Support hydration
⚡ Maintain metabolic health
That’s how you lose fat the smart way — especially for women 35+ balancing hormones.

Millennial mom PSA:
We can’t stop aging… but we can absolutely upgrade the canvas aka our skin! You know I’m all about the food which plays a major role in your skin however sometimes we also need a little external assist 🤌🏻

So I did an Erbium Laser Glow treatment and I’m so pleased at the difference already. As a tired millennial mom, the kids, the work, and stress… my skin was looking ✨meh✨

This gave me that:
✔️ refreshed
✔️ smoother
✔️ “I drink water & sleep 8 hours” glow even when I have not!

And the biggest win?
My makeup is going on SO much smoother. Less texture, less patchiness, more glow, less settling into fine lines and pores. I have not even used my primer which I would apply always under foundation!

Here’s my real-life progress
⸻
DAY 1
🔥 Red, warm, felt like a bad sunburn
💧 Slug life activated — all the hydration
🧴 No makeup, just healing mode and moisturizer

DAY 2
Still red but calmer
🧴 Lots of gentle moisturizer + SPF
🚫 No hot actives so I missed my hot yoga

DAY 3
🧖‍♀️ Light flaking + dryness + skin feeling tight
💡 Texture already looking smoother

DAY 4
🩷glow starting, still tight
🩷moisturizing at least 3 times daily
Fine lines + pores looking softer

DAY 5
🩷Skin tone looking more even
🩷That Glow from Within look

DAY 6
💄 Full makeup test
AND LISTEN — foundation blended like FILTER SKIN
✨ Glow
✨ Smoothness
✨ That expensive facial look without weekly facials!

Results:
100% impressed
Pain scale 1-10 (10 burning myself on the oven) I give it a 2 for the treatment! Not painful plus you have a topical anesthetic and I felt little to nothing!
