I'd start at the beginning, but I'm over 70 and that would take a long, long time. So, I will begin from February 11, 2021.

I was bloated and uncomfortable most of the time. My belly looked like I was pregnant ... and I'm not, I can guarantee that! My lower back was hurting, I was constipated (or not) and then I wasn't. It was exhausting. I wasn't sleeping well but did manage to run my home, play tennis and Pickleball, do yoga, and swim laps. I am active, but my shirts got bigger and bigger to hide my ever-growing belly. I had tried just about every diet I knew to no avail.

I asked my primary care physician for a prescription for physical therapy for my aching back, but I knew what I really wanted ... to loose that belly fat and I knew exactly who I needed to see.

On my evaluation appointment with a physical therapist I've known for years, she quickly determined my belly was not bloating due to fat ... but inflammation! Huh?

What is biohacking? Let's start with the fundamentals. Biohacking is essentially the practice of changing our chemistry and our physiology through science and self-experimentation to energize and enhance the body. It's a broad definition, but that's also because the concept is constantly evolving.

My journey with food has been just that ... a journey. Until recently, I struggled with binge eating though not to any extremes short of annoying me, but as I approached my seventies I realized my belly was telling me something. I was diagnosed with IBS years ago but when I removed some stresses from my life it went away. Stress is not my friend. Learning to manage it - or in some cases removing it - has made the biggest difference.

My website/blog is all about me and my journey - it's not always consistent as I do what I do when I want to do it, but you should find something to help you in your journey.

There are hundreds of websites and blogs out there to help you find your path to good health and fitness.
