@brittneyandbeyond: I spent seven years intermittent fasting and going low carb... 
...and it left me more burnt out than balanced. I kept thinking I was just one tweak away. One stricter plan, one better tracker, one more supplement from finally feeling like me. 
But I wasn’t missing discipline.
I was missing support. Gut support. Nervous system support. Hormonal support. 
And it turns out: that doesn’t come from cutting more. It comes from healing deeper. When I finally focused on my gut health, increased my calories, and stopped labeling foods “bad,” everything changed: 
→ My body started responding.
→ My energy actually lasted.
→ My hormones + cortisol finally balanced out. And for the first time, I wasn’t surviving my wellness routine. I was being nourished by it. I know now: no amount of intermittent fasting can heal a body that’s running on empty. So if you feel like you’re “doing everything right” and it’s still not working … you’re not crazy.
You might just be missing the right root. Curious what I did instead?
Comment “gut” and I’ll send you the exact system I used to support my body from the inside out … without another restrictive plan. #gutbrainconnection #cortisollevels #hormonesupport
