šŸ©ŗ Holding Steady Through the Strain – June 30, 2025

 

šŸŒ… Morning Check-In

I woke up dizzy, full-on vertigo šŸ¤¢, so I stayed in bed and took my meds. I’m almost certain I skipped my blood-pressure pill because my heart went wild later. Lesson logged.

šŸ“Ÿ Heart & Glucose

  • Apple Watch pinged me three times while I was sitting quietly: 102–108 bpm at 4:41 PM, 101–107 bpm at 5:57 PM, 99–105 bpm at 6:31 PM šŸ’“

  • CGM line stayed calm šŸ“ˆ, just a gentle bump after lunch, then coasting in the green zone all evening. No hypos, no scary spikes.

šŸ’Š Supplement & Med Stack

✅ All the usual suspects
šŸš« GLP-1 Activate (I’ve ditched it, zero benefit)
šŸš« NeuroGum
❓ BP med, probably missed

šŸ„— Macros (MyFitnessPal)

  • Carbs 174 g, Sugar 80 g

  • Protein 130 g

  • Fat 36 g

  • Fiber 18 g šŸ™Œ, so the carbs didn’t slam my blood sugar

šŸ“Š Welltory Snapshot

  • Stress 80 % šŸ˜¤

  • Energy 39 % šŸ”‹

  • Health 100 % šŸ›”️

  • HRV 20 % ↘️

  • Coherence 0 %
    My body ran on fight-or-flight all day, yet it never crashed. That’s resilience at work.

šŸ“ What Today Taught Me

Vertigo plus missed meds equals tachy trouble. Even so, stable glucose and a decent protein hit kept me upright. Tracking everything turned a rough day into data I can use.

šŸ”„ Plan for July 1

  1. Put BP meds next to my toothbrush, no excuses šŸŖ„

  2. Front-load protein and fiber at breakfast šŸ³

  3. Sip at least 90 oz water with one electrolyte packet šŸ’§

  4. Gentle walk if the room stops spinning šŸš¶‍♀️

  5. Three minutes of box breathing before lights out šŸ˜®‍šŸ’Ø

Some days thriving is overrated, staying steady counts. I stayed steady. šŸ’Ŗ

My Honest Review: Force Factor Hair Growth Accelerator Chews with Lustriva

Image
 If you’ve ever stood in the supplement aisle staring at a hundred different “hair growth” products, not knowing what actually works — I see you. I’ve been there. I’ve tried the oils, the scalp massages, the expensive shampoos… and while some things helped here and there, nothing really stuck. That changed when I discovered  Force Factor Hair Growth Accelerator Chews  — and yes, I’m officially a two-pack girl now. Why I Started Using Hair Growth Chews For me, it wasn’t about overnight results. I wanted something simple, consistent, and actually nourishing — not just for my hair, but for my overall wellness. These chews stood out because of the  Lustriva™ Complex , a blend designed to support thicker, stronger, and shinier hair over time. They’re soft chews (think: tasty little gummies), and you take two a day. Each pouch has 60, so that’s a full month’s supply. I ordered a two-pack from the jump because I caught a bundled deal — and I’m glad I did. More on that in a ...

šŸ—“️ Saturday, June 29-Sun 30th, 2025 Running on Fumes, But Built to Last

Image
 I clocked in a fantastic night of sleep—9 hours and 28 minutes in bed with 8 hours and 21 minutes of solid rest. My sleep quality came in at 96%, with over 5 hours combined in REM and deep stages. That’s the kind of recovery sleep I wish I could bottle up and save for Mondays. Despite that great start, today felt like I was walking with a quiet weight on my back. By evening, my Welltory stress hit  79%  and my energy dipped to  28% , even though my health score stayed rock solid at  100%  all day. The stress spike seems to tie in with the emotional weight of heading back into that toxic work environment tomorrow. I can feel it in my body before I’ve even clocked in. My glucose stayed stable for most of the day, with just a moderate post-meal spike around dinner. No crashes, which is always a win in my book. Nutrition-wise, I hit  1,602 calories  out of my 1,650 goal. Macros were a bit off-balance: Protein:  86g (short 58g) Carbs:  174g ...

šŸ§Ø Friday, July 5 – Post-Fourth Reset & Breakthrough Check-In šŸŽ‡ END of the 10 month rollercoaster and “STALL"

Image
I've had losing phases over the last 10 months, but they were always short-lived, frustratingly inconsistent, and often followed by rebounds. The backstory matters: last September, my doctor had to lower my dose of tirzepatide from 12.5 mg to 7.5 mg—not because of blood sugar meds (I don’t take any), but due to repeated  reactive hypoglycemia  episodes. That’s a rare side effect, especially for someone who isn’t diabetic. We couldn’t find 10 mg at the time, so we dropped to 7.5—and it completely backfired. I gained, my inflammation returned, and I felt like I was trapped in my own body again. Eventually, I pushed to try 10 mg again. I couldn’t get the brand version, so I switched to a  compounded GLP-1/GIP mix through AMBLE , and things started to level out. But for months, the journey has been rocky. Even while eating right and staying active, progress felt elusive—mirroring the way things were before medication. The one major factor always working against me?  Slee...
