Building a Routine:
Week 2: Establishing Your Routine
Dear Beloved Client,
Great job on completing your first week! This week, we'll build on that foundation..
What to Expect:
Continued adjustment to your medication
Maintaining and improving your new habits
Symptom Management:
Ginger and Peppermint: Continue using ginger tea or chews for nausea and peppermint tea for digestive discomfort.
If you need more support, Maureen can prescribe you anti-nausea medication, and she will definitely adjust your dose, so please don’t suffer in silence!
Hydration: Keep up your water intake to stay hydrated.
Our favorite electrolyte-balancing product is LMNT. It is amazing at helping you stay in balance. Use Maureen's referral link to place your first order and receive a free sample pack!
Lifestyle Changes:
Balanced Meals: Plan balanced meals focusing on protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates.
Food Journal: Continue your food journal, noting any new foods you introduce and how they affect you. Prompt: “What new foods have you tried this week? How did they make you feel?”
Recipe Suggestions:
Exercise:
Increase Walking: Aim to walk for 20 minutes daily. I like wearing my Fitbit or a pedometer to see how many steps I get! Challenge yourself to walk more steps more often!
Bodyweight Exercises: Incorporate bodyweight exercises like squats and push-ups (3 sets of 10 each). If you are not already doing weight training, start planning small ways to incorporate muscle resistance into your day using your body weight.
