Leftover from last night’s dinner: Chicken sausage with sautéed onions, steamed broccoli, roasted red potatoes with Parmesan. I’m doing my best to get the family more on board with healthy eating- It’s a struggle sometimes!

Add cottage cheese to your eggs to increase protein intake. I scrambled in 2 heaping teaspoons then cooked it up. I’m going to start sneaking this into my family’s eggs. 😏
Josie,
We talked months back when I was trying to get back to exercising. I wanted to write to you and tell you my story. I started with you when you first launched your App. I had been working out in some why most of my adult life. At that time I was working out a couple days a week and struggled with a curved spine, tear in my bicep and left hip pain. I was trying not to give up with working out but the pain was making it hard to continue.
I decided to go to see a pain doctor who recommended a nerve block without giving me a direct answer as to what was causing my pain. The curve spine was inherited and my age (70 last month) was not making it any better. When I left the doctors office I made an appointment for the procedure. When I got home I was totally defeated and basically set down and cried.
At this point you are probably wondering when I am going to get to the point.😉 I decided to try one more time to exercise and I turned on your App. You looked at me and basically told me to do my best and anything I could do was a win. You told me I have to keep moving and it would get better. I decided to listen to you and I canceled my nerve block. This was last February. I started slow and made changes in my eating habits (at your recommendation).
Fast forward to today. I do atleast one exercise from your App(sometimes more) six days a week. I started eating organic, grass fed beef, free range and eat process carbs sparingly. My sugar intake only happens by mistake (forgot to read the labels). I've lost 23 lbs and I feel better than I have for a long time. When I saw my doctor in August of 2023 she told me I wasn't over weight. I wasn't dieting I was just eating smart like you recommended.
I'm not crazy Josie, I know you weren't talking only to me, but it helped to think you were. Do I still have pain, of course I am 70 years old, but thanks to you 95% of the time I wake up in the morning excided to be alive.
When I see people make comments about you or your workouts, I can't help but think if they only knew! If they only knew that everything you do on your App has been life changing to me. You have a follower and a fan for life.
Thank you, Josie!
Wendy
PS - Laughing is good for the soul and you make me laugh too!
Hey Josie, I really love the new app. The calendar is very helpful. It is my accountability partner. I love seeing the check marks indicating workout completed. Also I love the playlist - it helps me to organize my workouts. All of the new features are helping me develop consistency in my workout. Thank you 😊

Fat vs. Muscle\- both of these weigh one pound. The same poundage of fat will take up more space in your body compared to muscle. Muscle also helps burn fat more efficiently so let’s keep building it!
Wanted you to see this first before I post it over on social media (and because my posts end up getting buried over there, too). Just some encouragement to keep your journey going. Do things YOUR WAY- however it resonates with you and keeps you going. Yes, it’s hard work but it doesn’t have to make your miserable.
I don’t believe in ‘the grind’. Small steps, consistent effort, forgiving the missteps, periodic self-evaluation and making adaptions and tweaks along the way is a good mindset to have. Be flexible in your journey and be kind to yourself. ❤️
Dates!! Eating whole raw dates with butter, cheese (I used goat cheese), or a natural nut butter is a great idea.
While dates are naturally high in sugar and do have excellent fiber to slow sugar absorption, pairing them with a fat from butter, cheese, or nut butter is even better.
These combos provide a steady energy release, minimizing sugar spikes and keeping you full for longer.
It's a simple way to enjoy a sweet treat while supporting more stable blood sugar.
It’s delicious, so remember, everything In moderation! My fav is the goat cheese. Which are you picking?
