I help reverse Type 2 Diabetes so you can live as the happiest, healthiest version of yourself

11/09/2024

It wasn't until I landed a job as a clinical pharmacist helping people manage their diabetes that I knew I wanted to learn more about helping people PREVENT diabetes and lose weight.

I remember it like yesterday, even though it was 3 years ago!

My job was to adjust insulin and make sure my patients were not only taking their medications as prescribed, but help them lower their blood sugar. However, as I started to speak to my patients, I realized that many of them had no idea what diabetes was and that their food choices were impacting their blood sugars. Several of them believed that they would have to be on insulin forever and they had little to no control over the disease. Having a dad (and several uncles) with diabetes, I understood feeling destined to getting diabetes, but I also knew it wasn't my destiny as I changed my own health the year before. By educating my patients, they learned about how to not only eat differently but how to manage stress, crush their cravings so they could come off of their insulin and other medications. Many of my clients had a new lease on life!

Looking back, it can be hard to believe that I also used to struggle with weight loss and the fear of diabetes... but we all start somewhere!

I never thought I could be thin.

I felt like I was destined to be overweight and my efforts were in vain. I poured my energy into diets, exercise, and restriction, only to find myself trapped in a cycle of frustration. 🔄.

I was only eating 1200 calories, I was starving, and then at the gym for HOURS. Despite all of that, the scale wouldn't move. I felt hopeless and my efforts felt futile. Then I would binge because what was the point???

Sound familiar? I get it. The constant battle with the scale, the hours spent at the gym, and the restrictive eating can make you feel like there's no way out. But let me tell you, I found my way out by understanding the power of hormones like insulin. Once I grasped how these biological forces were influencing my body, the weight started melting away effortlessly. 🌈

Guess what? You're not alone in this. If you've ever felt defeated by your efforts, I'm here to tell you there's a better path. I'm eating the foods I love without guilt, bidding farewell to endless gym sessions, and feeling absolutely incredible.

Are you making this simple mistake?

🚫 Let's talk about a common misconception: Avoid falling for the sugar-free or diet food trap. And those "Keto" packaged products might not be the magic fix you're looking for.

Here’s what to do instead…

Those seemingly convenient options are often loaded with chemicals and ingredients that can actually spike your blood sugars, disrupt your lower carbohydrate journey, and leave you feeling unsatisfied. Have you ever wondered why those diet versions of your favorite treats don't leave you feeling full? Artificial additives could be to blame, messing with your hunger hormones and satiety cues.

Ready for a better approach? 🌱 Skip the shortcuts and choose real nourishment.

Psst. You don't have to wait for what you want… PM me REAL and I'll share more details.

💖 Let's talk about one of my guiding principles: EMPATHY.

Empathy is at the heart of everything I do.

Why?

Because I believe in making a genuine connection with people, letting them know they're heard and supported. Compassion and kindness go a long way in creating a space where everyone feels understood, even when their journey might be different from mine.

Do you value empathy too?

If you're looking for help with preventing diabetes and losing weight, you're in the right place!

And today, I'm here to give you some of the best advice I have.

Eat what your body NEEDS first then eat what it WANTS. Meaning, you don't have to skip the bread, but make sure to eat the salad and protein first. You eat less bread because you are full from the nutrient dense foods, and your body doesn't have a hormone response that increases cravings! A double win! Best part...you don't have to give up the foods you love!

Ask any and all questions you have in the comments, and I'll be answering them throughout the day!!

Would you rather eat a high calorie avocado toast with microgreens, an egg, tomatoes and red onions or a low calorie oatmeal apple cinnamon oatmeal packet with water for breakfast?

I would chose the avocado toast even though it has WAY more calories and fat! It is nourishing and delicious and I know it would keep me full for hours unlike the oatmeal packet. I use to eat the oatmeal packet and an hour later, I would feel so hungry and not full. Believe it or not, once I started to eat the higher fat and higher calorie nutrient dense food, I started to finally lose weight!

Here is a beautiful testimonial from my client and friend Terri:

“I knew my A1c had been creeping up, so I wasn’t surprised when recent lab work revealed I was officially in the “pre-diabetic” range. As a former pharmacist I have seen the ravages of diabetes up close, and I refused to go there. I immediately went to the grocery store with the intention of changing my eating habits, but once I got there, I froze in a panic. I DID NOT KNOW HOW TO EAT.

Fortunately, I knew what to do. I texted my friend Jelina right there in the produce department. (Full disclosure: we’re former colleagues.) We started meeting via Zoom within two weeks. I really thought I knew proper nutrition, but the information she gave me blew my mind. I implemented changes right away and the weight started coming off.

Here I am three months later and I’ve lost 17 pounds. It really hasn’t been all that hard because nothing is off limits. The best part is when I go to bed and I no longer berate myself for all the ‘bad’ things I ate that day. I’m looking at clothes differently thinking, ‘Yeah, I can rock that.’

Jelina’s common-sense approach and positive attitude have made all the difference. She knows her stuff and she’ll be your biggest fan.”

🤔 Myth or Fact? Here’s the truth 👉👉👉

If you’ve ever thought that willpower is the key to losing weight and becoming healthy, you're not alone. I hear it all the time!

But here’s the truth, your body's hormonal imbalance is what is triggering your cravings, not your lack of willpower. 💡 Using your willpower alone is exhausting and will only work for a short period of time.

By addressing the root cause and balancing the hormones in your body, you won't need to rely solely on willpower to stay away from the cookies or the chips.

Discover the power of hormonal balance in achieving effortless weight loss and becoming the healthiest version of yourself. 💪

So, here’s the thing…….

Losing weight isn't really cut and dry. ❌

I'd love to give you a definitive answer, but the truth is, it depends on a lot:

👉 Your hormones and how long it will take to balance them
👉 Your ability to cope with stress
👉 Your medical history and underlying medical conditions

And I wouldn't be doing my best as a Holistic Diabetes Health Coach if I didn't give you the nuances of the situation.

🍎 Achieve a balanced and nutritious diet without feeling restricted or deprived
💪 Boost their overall well-being without crazy, intense exercise routines or specialized diets

And so, The Healthy Hero Model was born.

Are you making this simple mistake?

Don’t make dinner your biggest meal.

Here’s what to do instead…

Shift the focus to lunch and make it your biggest meal, as your body burns about 5-10% more calories at lunch compared to dinner.

🍫 Happy World Chocolate Day! 🍫

Indulge in the rich, velvety goodness of dark chocolate today and celebrate the many benefits it brings to your health and well-being. Did you know that dark chocolate, especially varieties with 70% cocoa or above, is not only a delectable treat but also a nutritional powerhouse?

Here are some reasons why you should savor dark chocolate guilt-free:

1️⃣ Rich in Antioxidants: Dark chocolate is loaded with antioxidants that help fight off free radicals in your body, protecting your cells from damage and promoting overall health.

2️⃣ Heart-Healthy Goodness: Research suggests that consuming dark chocolate in moderation may contribute to a healthy heart. It can help improve blood flow, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of heart disease.

3️⃣ Mood Booster: Dark chocolate contains compounds that stimulate the production of endorphins, which are natural "feel-good" chemicals in the brain. Enjoying a square or two can give you a delightful mood lift.

4️⃣ Nutrient-Rich Delight: Dark chocolate is a good source of minerals like iron, magnesium, and copper. These essential nutrients play vital roles in various bodily functions, including energy production, immune support, and bone health.

5️⃣ Mindful Indulgence: Dark chocolate's intense flavor and richness make it a perfect choice for mindful indulgence. Savoring a small piece mindfully can satisfy your chocolate cravings while keeping portion sizes in check.

Remember, when it comes to dark chocolate, quality matters. Look for varieties with higher cocoa content, preferably 70% or above, to reap the maximum health benefits.

On this World Chocolate Day, treat yourself to a piece of decadent dark chocolate and relish in its delightful taste and remarkable benefits. Share your favorite dark chocolate moments in the comments below, and let's celebrate the joy of this irresistible indulgence together! 🎉✨

✔️ Mindset Mastery: Address the emotional aspect of eating, conquer cravings, and develop effective coping strategies. Stop relying on willpower!
