What I have learned with having a low back injury the past 4 weeks…

1. Doing something as small as bending over to pick up a pencil can cause an injury that takes you out for a month. It doesn’t need to be picking up something heavy.

2. Pain is debilitating. It affects your every waking and sleeping moment. It consumes your every thought. It is deeply depressing.

3. Not being able to exercise or even take a walk around the block is mentally very hard.

4. After over 1,200 consecutive days of closing my rings, I accepted that it is ok to not close them.

5. Our medical and insurance system is royally messed up. I won’t even go into detail here, but know it has NOT been easy, and if I didn’t know how to advocate for myself, I would still not have a plan of care. I feel for people that don’t understand what their doctor is saying or they just accept what is told to them because they don’t know the human body like someone with my background. Our system is maddening.

6. I am now a Netflix expert. 🤣Lotsssss of time sitting and just resting.

7. Putting a smile on your face while at work or while making exercise videos, even when you just want to sit down and rest because you are in pain is hard.

8. Getting back to exercise after 4 weeks off isn’t easy…..sooooo sore even at the lowest weights. But muscle memory is greatly appreciated!

9. Healing takes time. Lots of time. Be patient.

10. Never ever ever take for granted your health. You NEED to adopt a healthy lifestyle starting TODAY to be able to recover from injuries faster.

On the road to recovery with hopes that this pain continues to decrease and that I continue to learn to appreciate every day that my family and I are healthy.

Money is not wealth.
Health is wealth.
Truly is.

Picture taken today after being SOOOO thankful to be able to go to my son’s race and walk the course without being in pain and then doing a light 30 min leg workout.

That smile is genuine.

My gosh! I had about 25 people comment this morning on a post from Sept 2025 from when I was advertising for my Metabolic Mastery Method peptide group!

Over the past year I have shared ALL about them. Where to buy them. How to use them. When to use them. Why use them.

We also covered topics such as Ni****ne patches, along with many other natural (but crunchy) remedies.

We have 190 members in that group. You are always welcome to join even though we started last year.

I have been using peps for 5 years now. I understand them and how to use them properly.

I was using them before they became popular!🤣🤣 I have never been a trend setter until now!

20 years ago, and 20 weeks pregnant with twins, we drove 811 miles to start a life for our family in Effingham, IL.

Far away from all family and friends.

In those 20 years, I have gained 2 precious boys, moved 6 times in the same town, got divorced, and felt sorry for myself for a LONG time.

Then one day, on an early morning run....I realized that feeling sorry for myself was getting me no where.

It went against all the Heil genes in me to just give up, and that is when I opened my dream business as a single mom!

And to top it off, I was patient, and found the perfect guy for me!

Lots has happened in the past 20 years, and even though I miss my family oodles....I wouldn’t change my path for anything, because in this process, I have finally found myself, and my purpose in life.
