Midlife weight loss is not a “just try harder” conversation — and if anyone has ever made you feel that way, please release that guilt right now.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your body is changing.
Your metabolism is shifting.
Your environment (hello, sugar in everything) is working against you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And none of that means you’re failing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In this season of life, weight loss becomes less about willpower and way more about understanding your physiology.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Curious where to start? Call or text us at STAT Wellness — let’s get you feeling strong, energized, and metabolically supported again.

Menopause isn’t the beginning of the end — it’s the beginning of a new chapter in your health.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Perimenopause + menopause can feel confusing, emotional, and honestly… like your body is doing things you’ve never experienced before. But here’s the truth no one tells you:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You’re not “fading.” You’re evolving — and you can feel strong, clear, energized, and yourself again with the right support.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You deserve to feel informed, empowered, and supported in this transition. And you don’t have to navigate this season alone.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Call or text STAT Wellness at 404-254-5905 to get personalized testing, a tailored plan, and a team that actually listens.

Whenever I see patients feeling frustrated or discouraged, I remind them: your body isn’t working against you-it’s working hard to get your attention.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes that means slowing down.
Sometimes it means nourishing differently.
Sometimes it means letting go of old habits that no longer serve you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just like a home needs upkeep and care, so does your body. And with the right support, it can feel like a place you actually want to live in again.

Your real age isn’t the one on your driver’s license — it’s your fitness age, and VO₂ Max is one of the strongest predictors of how long (and how well) you’ll live.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most people have no idea where they stand… but once you test it, you can actually improve it with targeted training.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Think:
-Better cardiovascular health
-Better metabolic outcomes
-Lower all-cause mortality risk
-Personalized heart-rate zones for smarter workouts
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ready to know your number? Call or text 404-254-5905 to schedule your VO₂ Max test at any STAT location.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your longevity era starts here.

In case you plan a trip to Baja California Sur, save this post 💙!

Todos Santos:

Hotel - gardens, local foods, beautiful decor, and great gym!

Top meals:
for lunch- amazing Mole
for a unique dining experience in the forest
for the best grilled shrimp

Fun market:tiendadecampo for their signature strawberries and cream, yum!

Top hike:
Old sugar port trail- beautiful views at the top

Day trip:
Todos Santos -> La Paz for marina life- sea lions, dolphins, beautiful beaches (pics from Balandra), whales (if you time it right)

We also did our 5k here along the boardwalk which was nice!

In Cabo:

Hotel: - top notch service. Had no reason to leave! They have a beautiful restaurant off the cliff and we saw so many whales from our patio!

Best tacos of my life (and super unhealthy): cheese crusted “tortilla” with al pastor from

Babymoon bliss

Filled with slow mornings, locally grown food, sunrises + sunsets, and the best functional gym (hello )

With our girls being born in the middle of the pandemic, this was our first (and last) true baby moon AND we accomplished exactly what we were hoping for- rest, relaxation, and quality time together ( ❤️) before we become a family of 5.

As many of us are, we have been in a season of growth personally and professionally - this little slice of paradise gave us so much space to be. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, we highly suggest

Cravings aren’t random — they’re your body’s way of asking for support. Instead of fighting them, start listening.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s what your cravings might be trying to say:
🍫 Chocolate → You may be low in magnesium (especially around your cycle).
🧂 Salty foods → Your adrenals or electrolytes could use a reset.
🍪 Sweets → You might need serotonin, B vitamins, or chromium.
🧀 Cheese → Your body could be craving calcium or balanced fats.
🥩 Red meat → You may need more iron, zinc, or B12.
🥨 Crunchy snacks → Often tied to stress or emotional release.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your body isn’t broken — it’s communicating. The key is learning how to listen.

Hiking always reminds me of how good it feels to slow down, breathe deeper, and trade noise for nature.

Grateful for this season, this view, and this man beside me 🤍

Happy Thanksgiving! There’s so much to be grateful for—today and every day.

During our annual Thanksgiving 10K this morning, I found myself reflecting on what a gift it truly is to move. To GET to run. To breathe deeply. To feel strong. Health really is our greatest form of wealth, and I never want to take that for granted.

I’m endlessly thankful for my family, my incredible team at , the patients who trust us with their care, and the opportunity to serve in a way that feels deeply meaningful. And to feel good at 30 weeks pregnant- my heart is extra full. We can’t wait to meet this sweet little guy soon.

Sending you so much love, gratitude, and warmth this holiday season. 🍁✨
