My Favorite "Power" Foods To Eat & Recipe Changes I've Made While On A GLP-1
In late June, I decided to take the plunge and try a GLP-1 medication. It was something I had debated and talked with my doctor about for quite a while, but I was always a bit nervous to give it a shot – no pun intended. I’ve always struggled with my weight and as I started getting older, I noticed that I was experiencing a lot more pain and inflammation than I was comfortable with. I also have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), which my doctor thought was likely contributing to the symptoms I was experiencing, along with consistently gaining weight year after year. It seemed like nothing I tried or did ever made a difference in my pain levels or helped me drop any pounds. After initially having a rather negative experience with Metformin, I made the decision to give it a try.

Middle of Nowhere Dispatch: The 10 Best Backroads Diners in the U.S.
WHERE THE ROAD MEETS THE GRIDDLE There’s a certain poetry to the American diner. Maybe it’s the chrome siding catching the first blush of dawn, or the way a neon “Open 24 Hours” sign hums like a lullaby for weary travelers. Maybe it’s the fact that at 2 a.m., when the world feels asleep, there’s a place where someone named Marge will slide you a steaming cup of coffee and call you “hon” without irony.

Is It Worth It? An Honest Review of Factor Meals
In the post-COVID era, a lot of people have adjusted to a new normal of home delivery. While delivery used to just be takeout Chinese food and pizza, home delivery now can be any fast or restaurant food, groceries, and even meal kits. I must admit, I have fallen victim to the delivery services and they do bring a lot of convenience. One convenience I recently tried was Factor75 prepared meals.
