Out of all of the careers I’ve had, helping others to reach their goals physically, mentally and financially is the best choice I have ever made!!
To say the R3 program has been a game changer for me is an understatement. R3 has significantly improved the quality of my life in not only managing my tremendous weight loss three years ago, but it has also improved my energy levels, sleep habits and my mood. I’m happier now and know those one-hundred-plus pounds are NEVER coming back.
Recently, I was invited to join a weekly “Wellness Zoom Party” with five other R3 Coaches. We all took turns sharing advice, tips and the impact it’s made on our individual lives. There were so many remarkable success stories as well as non-scale victory stories told. Hearing how this program has changed the lives of so many others, fuels me to continue to share R3 with as many people as I am able.
I have seen a several eco-friendly “effective” cleaners doing expensive advertising on Facebook recently. I can only imagine what that does to the price of their products.
My online shopping club offers a brand that’s concentrated to make SIX spray bottles at a cost of $1.16 a bottle. The competitive brand’s concentrate on the left makes four bottles at a cost of $5.00 per bottle.
Probably not because high blood pressure typically doesn’t have any symptoms. Sorry, trick question. That’s why we need to routinely measure our blood pressure!
And yet…. this is a problembecause it means that often the first people learn about it is when they sustain some vascular injury as a result (stroke, heart attack, kidney disease, etc)
What IS high blood pressure? Well, a US survey found, in answer to a multiple choice question on the topic:
25% believed that anything under 140/90 was fine
18% considered 130/90 to be the threshold
16% thought it was 140/80
13% got it right, at 130/80
We should aim for 120/80. But did you know that 120/79 qualifies as elevated blood pressure? Incidentally, the best workout to lower high blood pressure is isometric exercises (i.e. exercises where you hold a position without moving, such as wall sits or abdominal planks). There’s always something new to learn!
Testosterone plays a key role for both men and women. It impacts muscle and bone mass, red blood cell production and sexual characteristics. It also influences sexual drive, mood, and even body fat distribution. I recently learned a shocking statistic: The average 26 year-old man has the testosterone of a 65 year-old man from previous generations. Yes, testosterone declines as we get older due to stress, lack of exercise and exposure to toxins, but that stat is scary.
For women worried about osteoporosis, taking testosterone is a proactive way to help prevent it. But if you are a woman and you want to take a testosterone supplement, I recommend you get your labs done first. Then if you do want to take a testosterone supplement, start slow. Maybe a half dose every other day.
Remember, this is a hormone that we want to keep balanced. You don’t want it too low but you don’t want it too high either.
I stopped eating hotdogs years ago because all the crap that is put in them…until now.
These are REAL hotdogs—beef hotdogs—you know, my Never Ever Beef. You will not find crap in these and, oh my goodness! These hotdogs taste so much better. I know it is sounds crazy to say, but they taste clean (and delicious)
Here I am with two hotdogs with mustard and no buns!

Did you know that Febreze could literally be one of the most dangerous products in your home?

Y’all! In the 20.5 years I’ve been with my company there is not ONE natural disaster on US soil that they haven’t RUN INTO with boots on the ground helping where the community needs it most. When Hurricanes Ian and Nichole hit our area, they sent a plane full of volunteer firemen from Idaho with chainsaws & generators. Then they filled the local food distribution sites with hydration drinks and protein bars. Tens of thousands of dollars poured into our community. Every hurricane, every flood, every fire, every tornado, every single event, They show up.
Now…Texas communities are receiving supplies…from hand sanitizer, non-toxic mold removal cleaner, protein bars, personal care items….whatever the community needs, they are there.
It is the one foundation/non profit that I donate generously to every single month because I know that 100% of the money is going to the cause…not to run it. I am so proud to be part of a company who lives out our mission statement in ALL that we do!
