Okay…YOU asked for a new “must-have” every Friday, so here we are: Week 2. And yes, this one is under $6. 😅

Today’s must-have?
👉 A jump rope. Yes, seriously, and hear me out.

Jump roping is one of the most underrated ways to burn calories (about 150 in just 10 minutes), boost endurance, strengthen your heart, and even support bone density. And the best part? You can do it anywhere, and you don’t need a gym, a class, or even good weather.

If you’re brand new (same 🙋‍♀️), start like this:
• 30 seconds on
• 30–60 seconds rest
• Repeat 5 rounds
That’s it. Then build up slowly. And yes, you can break it up throughout the day and it still counts.

And a little friendly PSA from me to you…Empty your bladder first. 😭🤣
(Trust me. Learned that lesson the hard way today.)
Also: sports bra. Non-negotiable.

I’m honestly having fun with this series, so tell me:
👉 Would YOU try jump roping as part of your routine?

Or what’s your favorite simple, affordable way to move your body?

👉👉 If you haven’t yet grabbed it, comment the word TINY for small yet effective exercise moves that you can throw in throughout your day. They add up!

Follow this simple rule 👇

It’s my go-to way to tell if a snack will actually help keep you full or leave you hungrier 20 minutes later.

👉 Take 10% of the calories.
If the protein is higher than that number, it’s usually a solid, balanced option, especially if your goal is weight loss or better blood sugar control.

If it’s lower? It’s not “bad” but it just may have more calories than staying power.

This isn’t about calling brands “good” or “bad.”
It’s just a quick, beginner-friendly framework I use as a physician to help you choose snacks that work with your metabolism, not against it. And when you can pair protein + fiber together? Even better for fullness, cravings, and steady energy.

💬 What do you think of this little hack? Tell me below 👇

👉👉 Also, comment the word STORE to learn the top 5 reasons why we have stubborn belly fat (and what you can do about it).

Okay, I didn’t expect to fall in love with a tin of tuna, but here we are 😂

The one I found has 22 grams of protein and the company states they catch the tuna using pole and line fishing (no nets, no long lines, no guilt).

So yes, I was proudly eating my tuna sandwich with bread because the whole thing had over 37 grams of protein and kept me full for hours 🙌

It got me thinking. How many of you would actually want me to share a non-sponsored favorite find every Friday?

Like, just the real-life products I actually use and love.

👉👉 Plus, if you love tuna too, I made something fun: 5 chef-style tuna recipes that taste way fancier than they sound. Try have no weird ingredients, just restaurant-level flavor you can make at home.

💙 Comment TUNA and I’ll email them straight to your inbox.

If you’ve ever skipped meal prep because you were “too busy” only to find yourself starving, scavenging in the lunchroom, or hitting the drive-thru, oh friend, I get it. 🙋‍♀️

Meal prep feels like one more thing on an already packed to-do list. But here’s the truth no one talks about:
👉 Skipping it doesn’t save time: it just shifts the stress to later when you’re hungry, tired, and surrounded by less-than-healthy options.

The good news? Meal prep doesn’t have to mean spending your whole Sunday in the kitchen. With a few smart tricks (the ones I live by when my schedule is insane), you can have grab-and-go, high-protein meals that take minutes (not hours) to throw together.

Because fueling your body well shouldn’t feel like a full-time job. 💙

👉👉 Want my 3 favorite high-protein bowls you can make in under 10 minutes (no fancy prep, no chef skills needed)? Comment FAST and I’ll send them your way via email.

Okay, hear me out👇

You don’t need to starve yourself, live on salads, or spend an hour at the gym every day to lose weight.

It’s not the giant, dramatic changes that get results. It’s the tiny, consistent ones you barely notice stacking up.

These 6 hacks are exactly what I use (and what I give my patients) to stop cravings, keep energy steady, and actually burn fat without eating less.

And if you think these are small? Wait until you try my 10 little moves that secretly burn calories all day long.

Drop the word “TINY” below in the comments, and I’ll send them straight to you. Your future self will thank you. 💙

You’re eating “pretty healthy.” You’re walking more. You’re trying to do everything right. But the scale won’t budge.

Sound familiar?

As a physician who gained 60+ pounds during menopause (and lost nearly 70), I can tell you: it’s not always the big things holding you back.

It’s the tiny, automatic habits you don’t even notice anymore.

The extra bites, the missed meals, the all-or-nothing weekends… they seem harmless, but over time? They stack up.

This post is a breakdown of the 10 microhabits that were secretly making weight loss harder for me and for almost every client I’ve worked with.

You might be doing 3, 5, even 7 of them, and the good news? They’re totally fixable.

👉 If one of your struggles is falling into the “just grab something” trap, I made 5 high-protein, anti-inflammatory soups you can prep ahead. They’re perfect for summer, and even better for your goals.
💬 Comment SUMMER and I’ll send them your way.

Start being aware of these habits so it’s easier to improve them. 🌸
