✨ Feeling like you’re doing everything “right” but the scale won’t budge?
You’re not imagining it — your stress hormone might be the missing piece.

When cortisol stays elevated, it can increase cravings, slow metabolism, and make stubborn belly fat even harder to lose. 😣

The good news? Once you understand why it’s happening, you can work with your body — not against it.

💗 I just shared a new blog post that breaks down how cortisol affects weight gain (and what to do about it).

🌿⚕️ Traditional, Functional, & Lifestyle Medicine — What’s the Difference & Why You Might Need All 3 💡💪

Not all healthcare is created equal — and that’s a good thing. Each type of medicine brings its own strengths. Here’s a breakdown:

🔹 Traditional (Conventional) Medicine
Think: doctors, hospitals, prescriptions.
✅ Great for: diagnosing acute issues, managing emergencies, and using evidence-based tools (like medication and surgery).
🚨 It’s often focused on treating symptoms.

🔹 Functional Medicine
Think: root-cause detective work 🔍
✅ Great for: uncovering why your symptoms exist (like gut imbalances, hormone issues, or inflammation).
🧠 It’s personalized and systems-based—connecting the dots between symptoms, lifestyle, and biology.

🔹 Lifestyle Medicine
Think: daily habits for long-term health 🌞
✅ Great for: preventing and even reversing chronic conditions through nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep, and social connection.
🧘‍♀️ It treats lifestyle as the first line of medicine.

✨ Why a Blend Works Best:
Your health isn’t one-dimensional, so your care shouldn’t be either. A balanced approach gives you:

✔️ The power of modern medicine when you need it
✔️ A deeper understanding of your body’s signals
✔️ Sustainable habits to thrive—not just survive

🧠💥 Is Stress Making You Gain Weight? The Hidden Role of Cortisol 🧁➡️🍔

Ever feel like no matter how clean you eat or how much you work out, the scale won’t budge? 😩 Stress might be the sneaky culprit. Here’s why 👇

When you’re stressed, your body releases cortisol, a hormone designed to help you survive danger (think: fight or flight 🏃‍♀️🐅). But in today’s world, that “danger” is usually work emails, bills, and traffic 🚗—not actual threats.

🔁 Chronic stress = chronically high cortisol.
And that can lead to:
➡️ Increased cravings for sugar & high-fat foods
➡️ More fat stored—especially around the belly
➡️ Muscle breakdown (which slows metabolism)
➡️ Insulin resistance over time

In short: stress can rewire your body to hold onto fat—even if you’re doing everything else right. 😓

💡 De-stress to progress! Try meditation, walking in nature, better sleep, or simply setting boundaries.
