What I tell my patients, and have personally been doing over the past 6 weeks to drop 10 lbs.

Now don’t get me wrong, I tracked macros in the past and it was so eye opening but at this stage in the game- working 50 hour weeks, wife, mom to two little girls- my brain can’t take it.

So here are my rules-

1. 25-30 grams of protein per meal

2. 25-30 grams of fiber (the most elite nutrient for health and weight loss!)

3. 4 strength training workouts per week (these are 30 minutes long for me!)

4. 80+ ounces of water + 8 hours of sleep at night

5. 8-10K steps a day (this is as much for mental health as it is for physical!)

keep it simple. Play by these rules and I guarantee you will see an entire entirely different view in six weeks.

Total cholesterol is one of the most useless numbers in the history of labwork.

What’s your take on cholesterol levels?

Regardless of which dress I pick, there are NO QUESTIONS when it comes to what I’ll be wearing underneath!

oeak_official shapewear is the BEST! Perfect price point, breathable and cotton lined, keep me sucked in and modest.

Pro-tip- go with your typical size or if between size down for the best compression!

That gray lint in your hairbrush? It’s not just hair… 👀

It’s a mix of shed hair, dead skin cells, dust, and product buildup (especially dry shampoo + oils) that gets trapped in your brush over time.

So no—you’re not “dirty”… but your brush might be 😅

🧼 How to clean it:
• Remove the hair first (this is key)
• Soak plastic brushes in warm water + shampoo or dish soap + capful of white vinegar
• Let it fully air dry bristle-side down

Aim to deep clean it every 2 weeks ✨

Your scalp (and your hair) will thank you.

We are drowning in pollen here in southern VA and so many of my acute sick visits in the clinic are due to allergies.

Many people don’t know that they can show up in sneaky ways.

Do you struggle with seasonal allergies?
What kind of symptoms do you experience?

I stated working toward a goal to lose 15 pounds and build strength 5 weeks ago in an attempt to feel more comfortable in my body and clothes as I’m working my way through my mid-30s.

And while habits, diet choices and strength training are 90% to blame for the 10 pounds I’ve lost to date 🎉——- these supplements have helped support me through it!

Creatine is and OMG the watermelon flavor is AMAZING.

Some favorite brands for supplements (most of which you can find on Amazon!) include and

GLP-1 meds = amazing for weight loss… but constipation is REAL.

Magnesium carbonate is one of my go-to tools to help gently get things moving again 💩

✔️ Works by pulling water into stool
✔️ Helps soften + improve motility
✔️ Easy to titrate

Don’t forget: water + fiber + movement still matter.

Save this for later & follow for more real-life medical tips 🤍

The ultimate working mom dilemma…

Experienced moms, how did you handle this when your children became involved in activities?

Different work hours? PTO use? Dropping to part time?

I also have to mention that if it were not for the support we get from grandparents there is no way that I could work in this field/job.

The day was March 18, 2026.
And I’m still recovering.

If you’ve ever wondered why there is burnout in primary care, take a look at the numbers.
And remember these are “light” decisions we are making- they have to do with the medical and mental heath of a human being.

My shoulders feel heavy.

Does this surprise you?
If you work in medicine, what do your numbers look like?
