Episode 6: The Metabolic Wake-Up: Lab Shock and Choosing a Starting Point

In today's episode of The Jamerrill Show, I'm sharing what happened after the weight loss, when I expected my health to be "fixed," but my lab work told a very different story. This is not medical advice and it's not a weight loss episode. This is me walking you through the next chapter of my health journey. After losing around 60 pounds and feeling hopeful, I went into my August 2024 labs expecting good news, and instead I was met with high inflammation, prediabetes, elevated insulin, and some real wake-up moments about what my body was still carrying. I share the shock, the confusion, and the overwhelm that came with that, especially while still living in a high stress season. I also talk about the conflicting advice I received, why I chose not to jump into extreme protocols, and how I had to slow down and ask myself what I actually had the capacity to do. From there, I walk you through how I found a gentle starting point, what changes I began making, and how my body started to respond over time. This episode is really about learning to listen, removing pressure, and choosing a path forward that supports your nervous system instead of overwhelming it. If you've ever felt like you're doing "everything right" and your body still isn't responding the way you expected, I hope this encourages you. You don't have to do everything. You just need a place to start. ✨ALSO MENTIONED IN TODAYS EPISODE : Grab the Free Food Noise/Food Peace Teaching & Starter Guide https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/e5f5m0 here from Coach Mama Fox, plus here's the Foxy Over Forty free Community Group I shared, where there's MORE free teaching and tools for your over-40 health journey - https://www.facebook.com/groups/2536979519851222  You can find more from this episode, including show notes and resources, at: https://jamerrill.com Thanks for being here with me 💜
