This took me less than 5 minutes.

Day 12 of a liquid diet and THIS is how I’m hitting my protein without losing progress 👀

Not chalky. Not heavy. Just easy protein that actually tastes good.

I’m honestly keeping this even after I can eat real food again 🙌

If you’re not wearing SPF daily… this is your sign ☀️

I’ve tried a LOT of sunscreens, and most mineral ones feel heavy or leave a white cast—but this one actually disappears into your skin and feels lightweight enough to wear every day.

And after everything my skin has been through recently, protecting it is non-negotiable.

Sunscreen isn’t just about anti-aging… it’s about your health too. 💛

Everyone talks about the surgery…
but no one talks about what to do BEFORE.

I started this oral care routine 3 days ago to try to reduce swelling, bruising, and support healing.

And I’ve been consistent with it—3x a day.

Because I’m not starting over again after this.
I’m doing everything I can to recover right the first time.

Full “night before surgery” vlog is live on YouTube—
I share everything: what I stopped, what I’m taking, and exactly how I’m planning to recover.

Follow along… this is just the beginning.

You do NOT need 10 products to deep clean your kitchen 👏

This scrub daddy + power paste combo cuts grease FAST and leaves stainless steel streak-free.

Saving this for your spring cleaning routine 💡

Affordable hair care that actually works?!

I wasn't expecting THIS level of softness...

My coarse gray hair is smoother, easier to brush, even wet, and my son's curls came back to life.

Honestly shocked this is drugstore.

Sonic Ocean Water… but make it midlife wellness 💙🌊

Zero sugar. Homemade. Extra hydration.
And yes — I boosted it with Buoy because hydration doesn’t have to be boring.

Electrolytes + digestive support without sugar, dyes, or weird stuff?
That’s a yes from me.

I’m extremely picky about what I put in my body.
Like… suspicious of everything picky 😅

Perimenopause leg cramps have been brutal, and what actually helps me is:
hydration 💧
electrolytes ⚡️
stretching 🧘‍♀️

I was using sports drinks… but the dyes + chemicals were a no for me.

Enter Buoy
Flavorless. No sugar. No fillers. Dairy-free.
Hydration + electrolytes with digestive support 👏

I add it to LaCroix, water… even iced coffee ☕️
If it has liquid, it works.

Nothing extreme. Nothing sketchy.
Just something that actually supports my body in this season.

Use my code CARANOELLE40034 and try them today!

Didn’t feel like it this morning.

Still showed up.
30 mins on the bike. Dumbbell burst. Quick upper body to finish.

Not perfect. Not fancy. But consistent.
And that’s what builds results.

If you’re restarting, rebuilding, or just trying to stay on track — let this be your sign:
➤ Small steps still count.
➤ You don’t need to go hard. You just need to go.

What are you doing for YOU today?

Today was an up before the sun moment to get some early design work done. Sometimes rise and grind doesn’t mean hitting the bike

I’m so in love with this Shapelx slimming swim suit. It really showed off my progress and helped me find my confidence

Quick review: Native Sweet Peach & Nectar Hand Soap 🍑

✔️ Plant-based cleansers
✔️ Sulfate, paraben, and dye-free
✔️ Smells like real peaches not fake candy

It cleans so well without that dry, tight feeling.

Honestly, 10/10 clean ingredients, clean hands, and it actually looks cute on my counter.

Peachy perfection in a bottle. 🧼

Okay but… why didn’t anyone tell me that Native’s Cucumber & Mint Body Wash smells like a luxury spa in a bottle?! 💚
It’s crisp, clean, and somehow makes me feel like I have my life together, even when I absolutely do not 😅

✨ Freshness that actually lasts all day
🫧 Lathers like a dream without the icky residue
🚫 No sulfates, no parabens, no dyes, just smooth, happy skin

It’s giving cool cucumber calm + minty morning motivation. If “main character energy” had a scent… it would be this one. 🌿💦

#sponsored | When I’m powering through busy workdays, I don’t have time for crash-and-burn snacks. That’s why I keep an @atlasbars Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip bar nearby—20g of clean protein, just 1g of natural sugar, and zero sketchy ingredients.

It’s soft, chewy, and actually delicious—no chalky texture or fake sweeteners here.

I love knowing what I’m putting into my body.

✅ No seed oils
✅ No sugar alcohols
✅ Sweetened with monk fruit

#gifted Alcohol used to leave me paying the price—dehydrated and dealing with awful leg cramps. 🥴 That’s why I’m obsessed with Spiritless: all the rich, bold cocktail flavor with none of the side effects. ✨ This non-alcoholic espresso martini has become my new go-to when I want to join in the fun without the hangover.
Cheers to celebrating smarter! 🖤

For the longest time running was my only form of cardio. Flashback to just over a year ago now and I hurt my knee. I had a Doctor who leveled with me. I could rehab and get back to running and my body would continue to degrade and I may get another 5 to 7 years of running. Or I could slow down and switch gears and take up cycling. You can get the same burn, the same adrenaline high without the impact on your body.

It was a hard shift, but once I finally accepted it and leaned in, I haven’t looked back.

@greatwolflodge fun in Manteca. Super pleased with this Shapellx Smart Sculpt swimsuit too. It held me in nicely, was super comfy and let me keep up with my kiddo to the stairs and down the slides all day long!!
