I made a quadruple batch of the ground turkey (could also use lean ground chicken) and now I’m set to throw this baby together for the next 4 days.

Comment RECIPE if you want the exact ounces for macros!

Not just for those bodybuilders, friends. In fact, it’s SUPER important to help prevent cognitive decline.

🙋‍♀️👇Does your current Creatine complete this cycle?

GENERATE ENERGY with
✨Polyphenol Blend: sourced from two potent superfruits, muscadine and pomegranate

BECAUSE—> they support mitochondrial health, helping cells convert food into ATP more efficiently and fueling sustained energy

RECHARGE ENERGY with
✨Micronized Creatine Monohydrate: Gold Standard, Clinically Studied form of Creatine

BECAUSE —> it helps regenerate ATP, so energy is restored quickly when demand is high for those quick bursts of mental and physical energy

ACTIVATE ENERGY with
✨Magnesium Citrate: a highly bioavailable form

BECAUSE —> it activates ATP, allowing that energy to be released and used by cells and ready when you need it.

Together, they provide Complete Cellular Energy Support. 👌

While I was literally outside on my backyard swing, rage scrolling in disbelief…

I’ve got a lot of wishes for a lot of things right now
and this felt nice.

The VOLUME of this bowl. 🥳
Let’s just say I did the happy food dance the entire time I ate it.
If you don’t know what that is, you’re not eating things that taste good enough 😂

“If you’re bored, you’re boring. Go be creative.”

Did you know about that rule of thumb when it comes to a great balanced protein to calorie ratio?

If you’re thinking this is only for someone with a goal of fat loss…not the case!

The 10% Protein ratio isn’t a “diet rule.” It’s a meal-quality check.

It answers:

“Does this meal meaningfully contribute to muscle repair, satiety, and metabolic health — or is it mostly just energy?”

Protein is the only macro that:
• preserves/builds muscle
• keeps you full longer
• has the highest thermic effect (you burn calories digesting it)

So the ratio is universally helpful for all when it comes to health longevity and eating to optimize our body’s systems. 🙌

🥇Leaner Protein Options for Add-Ins/Ons:

These add 8–20g protein for ~40–100 calories:
• Egg whites (carton or whites only) —> +5g protein per 25 cals….Scramble into eggs, stir-fries, rice, soups
• Nonfat Greek yogurt —> 17–20g protein for ~90–100 cals…Use as: sour cream, mayo base, creamy sauce, taco topping
• Low-fat cottage cheese (2% or fat-free)
—>14g protein per 80–90 cals…Blend smooth for sauces, pasta, or bowls
• Protein powder (whey or plant) —> 20–25g protein for 100–130 cals…Stir into oatmeal, yogurt, coffee, pancake batter

🚨 FYI on these sneaky protein killers:

These often tank your ratio without you realizing it:
• Oils & butter (120 cals, 0 protein)
• Cheese used as “protein” (it’s mostly fat)
• Nuts/nut butters (healthy, but calorie-dense)
• Sauces & dressings

👉 You don’t need to cut them — just measure them and reallocate calories to protein.

TWELVE.

What a day. 🫶🏻
Started with a 6am Starbucks run before school and ended with paint-your-own-pottery and Kawaii Shaved Ice with friends and sisters 🤩

And sprinkled in between all of that, there were
phone calls
and hugs
and presents arriving at the door
and stories of being celebrated at school

and it’s all just the best because you see your baby being loved the way she deserves 🥹

Everyone who knows Charley would agree —
she’s a special one.
To know her is, truly, to love her.

❓Can I ask a favor?
If you know Charley— would you drop a comment and share your favorite thing about her, maybe a favorite memory? Or what you love about her and what makes her such an awesome 12yo?
I would love to show those to her 🥹🫶
Happy Birthday to my heart.
We adore you.

Want to know the only time you should be using the Facetune app?

When you have a popped blood vessel i.e. Vampire eye. 😂

Scroll to the 5th pic to see what’s really going on, compared to the first picture where I used the Patch tool to (roughly) remove the red.

The smoothing, the reshaping, the refining tools?

Leave ‘em, friends.
You know that wrinkle you hate? or those deep smile lines around your mouth?
You lived some life for those and there’s just something freeing about letting them be.

…but still get you some collagen, let’s not get crazy 😂

Products I can disclose are in the Reel to your right — when the rest launch in the coming weeks, we’ll revisit :)
