Motivation: Optimizing Lean Body Mass

Monday Motivation, Motivation

In this week's Motivation, Dr. Fletcher discusses the importance of increasing lean muscle mass. This can be achieved by eating healthy lean proteins and through strength + resistance training. She also shares the loss of lean muscle mass when using semaglutide products like Ozempic or Wegovy. Studies have shown that 40% of the weight lost on these drugs is lean muscle mass. It’s important to know your body fat and lean muscle mass percentage. We use the InBody scan at Thrive to monitor those numbers. Through the month of December, scans are only $25.

The holiday season is marked by food, family, and, of course, gifts. Gift-giving is not only a big contributor to the stress of the season but also a big contributor to trash and waste. Americans throw out 25 percent more garbage between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and some of the trash includes new Christmas gifts. A little mindfulness during gift selection can help reduce this waste and may also please the recipients more than that last-minute holiday tie purchase. A health-oriented purchase will be the gift that keeps giving. 2023 Healthy Holiday Gift Ideas How About a Book?

Mindful Thoughts on Gratitude – Our Thanksgiving Gift

Dr NP, Healthy Life, Lifestyle, Nancy's articles

“It is not happiness that makes us grateful. It is gratefulness that makes us happy. Every moment is a gift. Whatever life gives to you, you will respond with joy. Joy is happiness that does not depend on what happens. It is the grateful response to the opportunity that life offers you at this moment.” ― David Steindl-Rast Thanksgiving is that time of year when we show gratitude for family, friends, and lives well lived. For a short period of time, we feel happiness-counting our blessings with an overall sense of contentment. Then, when Monday rolls around, it is business as usual. If we reaped any benefits from the holiday weekend, they quickly disappear with the return of stress, negativity, depression, and loneliness. Our lives focus on the materialistic,...
