I had no idea what my doctor was talking about. After all, I was a healthy recipe cookbook author.
I always ate healthy and exercised four times a week, what left was there to do to take care of myself?
“You need to stay hydrated,” my doctor told me.
“In fact, because your body was so dehydrated, that’s likely why the cancer was able to grow. Well, that, and your stress levels, which only got so high because you were so dehydrated”.
This surprised me because I thought I already drank a good amount of water and fluids…
But I listened to my doctor and started drinking even more, and figured that would be the end of things...
And with this increased awareness around health, things seemed like they were going in a great direction…
I was cancer free, and wrote another healthy cookbook…
But even the doctor wasn’t aware of the one thing that would derail me for the next two years…
And result in the life-changing discovery that’s helped me, and thousands of everyday women all over the world, reclaim their bodies so they can look, feel, and be their best every day.
So day after day, week after week…
For two years straight...
I gradually started gaining more weight…
Becoming more stressed…
And suffocating in overwhelm.
It all came to a head on Christmas Eve, 2017.
I had a whole bunch of people coming over for dinner the next day, and to say I felt completely overwhelmed was the understatement of the century.
I was overwhelmed as a mom…
As a wife…
As an entrepreneur…
And I just couldn’t do it all.
