Your body doesn’t care where you move. It only cares that you do.

Drop a 🩷 if you can relate!

Some days I handle it well. Some days I cry in my car. Most days are somewhere in between. Not every ball needs to be caught perfectly every day.

The highs are high and the lows are low.

Most people are looking for a shortcut.

- Walk more. Increasing daily movement burns calories without increasing hunger the way intense exercise sometimes can.
- Lift weights. Preserving muscle during weight loss helps maintain metabolic rate and improves long-term weight maintenance.
- Eat enough protein. Protein helps control hunger, supports muscle retention, and generally makes a calorie deficit easier to sustain.
- Sleep 7-9 hours. Poor sleep increases hunger hormones, cravings, and the likelihood of overeating the next day.
- Plan meals ahead of time. Most nutrition decisions fail when they’re made while stressed, busy, or hungry.
- Create an environment that supports your goals. Keep protein-rich foods visible, tempting foods less accessible, and make the healthy choice the easy choice.

There are plenty of providers who can tell you what to do. My goal is to be the provider who listens first.

Everyone deserves a provider who sees the whole person, not just the number on the scale. 💕

Why are nearly two-thirds of Alzheimer’s patients women?

New research suggests that estrogen produced within the brain itself may play a role in memory, cognition, and healthy brain aging. While this study was conducted in mice and does not prove that estrogen loss causes Alzheimer’s in humans, it does make me wonder if there is a biological explanation for why women may be disproportionately affected by cognitive decline as we age. What are your thoughts?

The ideas, the plans, the people I care about, my patients and the next steps are always running in the background. It’s not always easy, but building something that matters to me is worth every thought. 💕

The internet is a hard place to be sometimes! I try to put out evidence-based information, educate patients on the science, and help people make informed decisions about their health. Not everyone will agree with me, and that’s okay. My goal isn’t to win arguments online. My goal is to help people separate facts from hype and make choices that improve their long-term health.
