Start living your best life ever - a life full of health and vitality - with the accountability and support from your Health Coach - Dr. Michele N. Reid.
Health Coaches are knowledgeable advisors who provide ongoing support and guidance as you set goals and make sustainable changes that improve your health and happiness. As your Health Coach, I will listen carefully and help you to navigate the world of contradictory nutrition advice to determine what changes are necessary for you. Your personalized program will radically improve your health and happiness. Together, we will explore concerns specific to you and your body and discover the tools you need for a lifetime of balance.
Quick rundown, since I get asked this a lot.
The Bod Pod measures body composition, how much of your weight is fat and how much is fat-free mass, meaning muscle and lean tissue. You sit in a sealed chamber 2 times for about 40 seconds each while it measures the air your body displaces. No radiation. No electrical current.
Who it helps: honestly, anyone who wants to stop guessing. Especially if you've lost weight and can't tell whether you lost fat or muscle because those are two completely different outcomes and the scale shows you the same number either way. It's also for anyone who's been doing everything right and watching a number that won't budge, when the real change might be happening somewhere the scale can't see.
What you get afterward: your results, and then me. I sit down with you and walk through what your numbers actually mean and what to do next. The test takes five minutes. That part takes as long as it takes.

Rest should not require a national holiday. Yet here we are, I hope today you were able to give yourself permission to rest. Rest is part of a sustainable health strategy, not something women must earn after completing everything else. đż
Save and share with the woman who needs permission to stop carrying the whole planet before dinner.

Itâs so easy to measure yourself against an earlier version of you.
The body you had.
The energy you remember.
The clothes that once fit differently.
The routines that worked before life changed.
But caring for yourself today doesnât mean trying to reverse time.
It means paying attention to what your body needs now.
More strength.
Better nourishment.
Rest without guilt.
Movement that feels good.
Habits that support the life youâre actually living.
You can want change without treating the woman you are today like someone who needs to be corrected. Pause here and read that sentence again if you have to because the woman you are today...
She deserves to be cared for, not compared.

The way you eat doesnât exist separately from the way you live.
It is affected by how much time you have, how well you sleep, how stressed you feel, how much energy youâre working with and how many people need something from you.
Yet many fat-loss plans treat your lifestyle like an inconvenience you should simply overcome.
Then, when the plan becomes impossible to maintain, you assume youâre the problem.
Youâre not.
A sustainable approach starts by understanding your actual life first. Then you start building meals, movement and routines that can function inside it.
Thatâs what it means to put lifestyle first.
**Save this carousel before starting another plan and follow Get Well Shell for fat-loss guidance designed for real life.**
Most fat-loss plans begin with a list of things you need to change.
Eat differently.
Exercise more.
Track everything.
Try harder.
But before adding another demand to your life, it may be worth asking:
**What does my life currently make possible?**
Your schedule matters.
Your sleep matters.
Your stress matters.
Your energy, responsibilities and daily routines all matter.
Because even the âperfectâ plan wonât last if it requires a life you donât actually live.
A lifestyle-first approach starts with your reality and builds sustainable changes from there.
Youâre not ignoring fat loss.
Youâre creating a way to pursue it that you can genuinely live with.
đż **What does your health plan need to account for in your life right now?** đż
Save this for the next time a plan makes you feel like your real life is the problem and follow Get Well Shell for a more livable approach to fat loss.
When did you last drink water today? Not coffee. Water.
Most people go quiet for a second, and that's the answer.
Here's what's actually happening mild dehydration feels almost identical to hunger.
Same fog, same drop in energy, same pull toward a snack. And the timing is what fools you. You get behind at 10 or 11am and don't feel it until 3pm, by which point it feels like a food problem.
It isn't always. Sometimes it's just water and ten minutes.
So? When was your last glass? Be honest. đż
Let's get there by putting it all on the table. The Lifestyle First, Fat Loss System is where we build sustainable practices through my 5 Core Lifestyle habits.

Here's the part that surprises people: your body doesn't actually know the difference between "I'm training for a goal" and "food is scarce right now." It only knows what it's getting versus what it's spending. So when the work goes up and the food goes down, it makes a call, "hold the fat, spend the muscle."
It's not punishing you. It's trying to keep you alive.
Which is a wild thing to find out after years of thinking you just weren't trying hard enough.
Anyway when's the last time the scale moved and you actually felt good?
