Overcoming 3 Medical Conditions…Becoming My Best Me

”I’m too old..”

…Ever hear this?

(We all know someone who believes and lives this lie.)

“I have (insert medical condition) and can’t workout.”

Medical conditions can be deflating.

Especially, Rheumatoid arthritis.

  • A chronic inflammatory disorder usually affecting small joints in the hands and feet.
  • In rheumatoid arthritis, the body’s immune system attacks its own tissue, typically in the hands and feet.
  • It affects joint linings, causing painful swelling.
  • This may lead to bone erosion and joint deformity. Fatigue, fever and loss of appetite also can be symptoms

This doesn’t stop Liz.

1 small example is, unhappy with a medical check in and the results with her doctor in late 2022, Liz reached out about adding Nutrition coaching.
