So this is difficult to post, but its real and I believe a testament to what we can do when we explore healing alternatives available to us. The left photo is the day in feb 2023 I left my dr.'s office with 3 more prescriptions in my hand and an admonishment that my weight, cardiac risk, blood pressure and A1c had all gone up significantly over the prior 6 month period. I am 59 in the 1st photo and now 63 in the 2nd. I had fallen into a horrible depressive "funk" after my accident in 2022, 3 repair surgeries, rehab and permanent impairments had me in my feelings, becoming more and more insulin resistant each day. I made a choice to change and educate myself and put a stop to the descent into poor health.
I started on GLP therapy and began losing excess fat. I then studied and applied peptide therapies, low impact movement, supplementation and thoughtful eating. I also travelled to Colombia for stem cell therapy. Each month things changed for the better. Each month my plans became choices, my choices became habits, my habits became my lifestyle and that became my mission. To share, teach, advocate support and help others achieve goals to improve health, vitality and longevity. I no longer take 7 to 8 different medications or have to medicate to get through a day or medicate to get sleep. I am 100 lbs lighter, have the metabolic blood markers of a 45-48 year old woman. HRT brought no only my "groove back" but gave me a sense of balance that menopause had taken away.
I still experience challenges and nerve/pain as a result of the accident and have accepted it is what it is. I have great days, good days and the occasional not so great days. This is where our powerful minds and will power (we can all do this) comes into play and can heal us.
We are complex beings, not machines and all our processes are interconnected and have ripple effects throughout our bodies, thus affecting our well being. I did this 180⁰ and know you can as well. If I can help you, I will, just ask I'm here to help you when you are ready to actively participate & take control. As ALa dear friend of mine always says "live your life and...stay positive"
