Last week was hard. Eugene was gone and I completely fell off. Supplements maybe 4 out of 7 days. Routine out the window. Just trying to survive.

And you know what? That’s real. That’s what actually happens. Life doesn’t stop because you started a wellness protocol.

But here’s the thing — I didn’t quit. I got back on track. And that’s the whole point.

It’s not about being perfect. It’s about coming back every single time.

Locked in. Let’s go. 🖤

Good, Bad & Ugly — Week 1–for labs

The lab result that explains everything.

My fasting insulin came back at 25.8. Optimal is under 7. Nobody had ever checked it.

And I’m not going to blame biology for all of it — I ate like garbage, I was chronically stressed, and I ignored the signs for years. Biology played a role and so did I.

But here’s the difference.

Standard medicine would have seen prediabetes and high cholesterol and handed me a pamphlet. Root cause medicine asked WHY.

Why is the cholesterol high? Why is blood sugar creeping up? Why won’t the weight move?

The answer was in a fasting insulin number. Listen to see exactly what my labs showed and what we’re doing about it.

I own my part. And now we fix it. 🖤

Good-Bad-Ugly: Week 1.

THE GOOD.

I actually feel good. The adrenal support has made a real difference in my mood and sleep and I wasn’t expecting that to happen this fast. The sema and metformin together are making better choices easier — not perfect, just easier. And I tried the First Watch AM Superfoods Bowl and genuinely loved it which nobody is more surprised about than me. 😂

I also did a three mile walk Sunday to watch my son’s scrimmage. And before you come at me — yes I know how important exercise is. But anyone who knows me knows I go 0 to 100 every single time. I sign up for everything, go full throttle for two weeks, burn out completely, and quit. That pattern has derailed me more times than I can count.

So this time we’re starting with a walk. A real one. And that’s enough for now.

THE BAD.

I still love Pepsi. Like really love Pepsi. We’re working on it. 😂

THE UGLY.

This week was better than I expected. And that almost makes me nervous because I’ve been here before. But this time feels different. The protocol is different. The support is different. And I’m doing this out loud now so I can’t quit.

Week 1 done. See you next Sunday. 🖤

Week 0. We’re doing this for real this time.

I sat down with my provider — who also happens to be my business partner because my life is completely chaotic — and honestly the person I trust more than anyone when it comes to my health.

We went through every single lab result. Not the “everything looks normal” version. The actual version.

And here’s what we’re starting with:

Vitamin D — critically low. I live in Arizona. 300 days of sunshine. Still deficient.

Omega-3 + CoQ10 — inflammation, cholesterol, heart health. Non negotiable.

Methylated B complex — B12, folate, homocysteine. All in one because I’m not taking 47 pills.

Psyllium husk — I know. Riveting. But it does more for blood sugar and cholesterol than half the things that cost $80 a bottle.

Adrenal support — because my cortisol was tanked. Stress literally changes your body chemistry.

Creatine — 5 grams every day. If you’re on a GLP-1 and skipping creatine you are losing muscle not fat. We are not doing that.

GLP-1 + Metformin — fasting insulin was 25. Goal is under 7. We have work to do.

Every single one has a reason. A lab. A clinical decision. Not a vibe.😂

Week 0. Let’s go.🖤

Not a bad week for Logan…

State Runner-Up for school basketball, championship win with his club team, 2x MVP, and Defensive Player of the Year.

Proud of the hard work, leadership, and heart behind it all.
