My Personal Note to You💙

1. You need more protein than you think (0.8-1g per pound of body weight)
2. Start with just ONE meal (breakfast is your power move)
3. You're not fighting your body - you're learning to work with it
4. This isn't about perfection - it's about creating a new default
5. Your energy matters, your strength matters, YOU matter

If you're thinking "Finally, someone gets it!" share this episode. Because somewhere, another woman is googling "am I normal?" at 2 AM, and your share might be exactly what she needs.You're not broken. You don't need fixing. You're navigating a massive transition, and your body deserves fuel that supports this journey, not fights against it.~Catharine
