I may or may not have texted my disc replacement neurosurgeon this week and said, “Apparently you gave me a Brazilian booty lift as a bonus.” Did he respond with laughing emojis? No. But I stand by it. Here’s why: I’m officially 3 weeks post-disc replacement and apparently my...
Have you ever wondered why you and your best friend can eat the exact same foods, follow identical workout routines, yet have completely different results? Or why the health advice that worked brilliantly for you in your twenties now seems to backfire spectacularly in midlife? As...
I’ve been through my fair share of setbacks. Actually, scratch that. I’ve had a collection of setbacks. Like I could start a museum of "Well, that didn’t go as planned" moments. From my original rock bottom before I ever got into health and fitness, to injuries, hormonal...
