Hey Everyone! Welcome Jake and Miles to the Community!!

The beginning of a new year brings with it the desire to set goals and reach for new beginnings !! I had big plans to kick start this year with a bang! Well it had other plans for me. As I contracted every tiny human germ (granddaughter’s) possible over the Christmas break, it really took me down. I believe that it was my bodies way of saying, “You don’t need to do it all & you require rest”. So since January 1st I have rested, slept, read, (coughed) and used many boxes of Kleenex! Did I like it, Hell No…. But sometimes our bodies tell us things, and we don’t listen. So it has to revert to harsher measures 😆 Yesterday was my first workout in 2025 and it took me all day to get it all done!! AND that’s ok! Slow and steady, baby steps will get me back in routine ! Life is not a race, but rather a journey! Listen to your body as it really does know what it requires! Happy & Healthy New Year Everyone

Hey Folks! Let's give a warm welcome Karen and Alexandra to the Epic Community!! What's everyone reaching for in 2025? How can we support eachother!?!

Happy Thursday Everyone! I usually do a weigh in each Thursday, as I like to just take notice were I am (no judgment) some days up, some days same, some days down, just like LIFE…. When I weigh in, I don’t want this to be the only measurement of my success in my wellness journey. For the past month I have not had a loss on the scale (August), but held steady on my goal weight. BUT other things were changing. Yesterday I decided to do a body measurement (which I do every couple of months) and lo and behold I have lost another 2.5 inches. In 10 months I have now lost 22.5 inches from my body. I could feel some articles of clothing fitting differently over the summer, so this was my validation that I was still winning 🥇💪 ! Look in other places to find your WINS, you will be surprised how badass you really are!!! Have a Wonderful Day Everyone

Over the weekend I was babysitting my granddaughters and they wanted to go to Booster Juice. I thought this was great, not asking to go to McDonald’s haha! So off we went and they each picked their flavour, & of course I decided I should get one too. It was going to be a busy day with the munchkins so I better get my energy stocked up. I chose one that was called High impact with high protein…… I did not feel great all morning long, blotted & gassy. I’m like what the H… I thought this was a good choice, NOT Afterwards I did a check on the ingredients. 26 gr protien, but 70 grams of sugar and full of carbs. NOW I know the why I didn’t feel good. ( I still had a blast all day with my girls) Note to SELF: there is always that wolf in sheep’s clothing 😂. Always do a quick check if this is what you are looking for….
