I love the @adidas Spezials. They are much more comfortable than the Samba. They do run big so I would size down a whole size.

1️⃣ A fan that’s rechargeable- I don’t know how many times I’ve been in a hot airport and my small but powerful fan has been my saving grace.
2️⃣ XL Pill Container with Clasp- This is large enough to hold up to two weeks of all Cedrric’s meds and my vitamins.
3️⃣ Travel Jewelry Case- All leather and comes in two sizes, but I found this one to be the perfect size and it can be monogrammed!
4️⃣ Cadence containers- I’ve used these for years and they are magnetic, portable, and air tight!
5️⃣ Charging banks- I’ll link both but the Anker one is my favorite because it’s mag safe and has a stand!
6️⃣ Noise Cancelling Headphones- I love my Apple one, but a great affordable option are these from JBL!
7️⃣ Silicone Makeup Brush Holder- I love that this silicone case has a magnetic closure and it’s washable.
8️⃣ Samsonite Luggage-I pack my luggage to 50 pounds, and I’ve taken it out of the country and it held up great!

💇🏽‍♀️HOLY GRAIL HAIR CURLING CLIP WAND💇🏽‍♀️

💇🏽‍♀️My T3 Micro Curling clip wand is the absolute best! I’ve used it for about 5 years now, and I swear by it! I have thick hair and my hair holds a curl with this wand all day! #t3micro #T3Hair

💇🏽‍♀️It has 9 different heat settings so it works with all hair types and textures.

💇🏽‍♀️I have the 1.5” barrel, but they have all different sizes of barrels to choose from and they are all interchangeable so you can use the one base and just add on additional barrels for different hair styles.

💇🏽‍♀️It also curls my hair in one pass. I never have to keep re-curling or like leave the wand on my hair for a long time to ensure a good hold. One pass, and my curls stay all day.

💇🏽‍♀️It minimizes static and frizz and also boosts shine so my hair always look silky and smooth after curing my hair.

💇🏽‍♀️I have had both the wand and clip version and I loved both but I prefer the clip.

FAVORITE WORKOUT LEGGINGS

My favorite workout leggings are from @Spanx
These are the 7/8 booty boost leggings
I’m wearing an XL. At a size 18/20, I wore a 2X for reference.

Why I love them:
-perfect amount of compression
-smooths out my cellulite
-don’t roll down
- makes my bum look great!
-fully opaque, even on darker skin tones

Sizing tip: if you’re in between sizes, size up
Available in sizes XS-3X

My dress is #gifted from Mac Duggal and what I love about them is that they have evening gowns available in extended sizes, thru US size 24. I’m wearing a size 16 and I would say it’s very true to size. #Macduggal

💪🏾My outfit is a chocolate brown Never Better 7/8th leggings along with the matching Win Win Sports bra by Free People Movement. You can’t tell, but it’s a razorback, and both are such great quality! I also paired it with the heather grey My Time Tee, which is one of fp movement’s fan favorites.

💪🏾I’m wearing an XL in both but I think I might have been able to wear a Large. The fabric is buttery soft and perfect for yoga or pilates.

👟I still love my icy blue and white Nike and right now they are half off! I love that they are wide width friendly!

🎀It’s also where I post daily outfits, home decor finds, my favorite makeup/haircare products, etc.

The newest label from Walmart called Scenario and this dress I styled 3 different ways. I’m wearing L and you can see it easily goes from workwear to out and about the town. I love how vibrant the color is and I can’t wait to wear it more this fall season!

My boots are from @samedelman and are a repeat from last year! I love that they are offered in regular, wide, and extra wide calf. I have the wide calf.

YALL know I love a good Jean dress and is this one not absolutely perfect for me!? It’s from Walmart and I’m wearing an XL because it doesn’t have any stretch and it only buttons, so I didn’t want any gaping.

My handbag is such great quality and looks like a vintage designer bag but it’s also Walmart!

These @Caraway food storage containers are sooo good! They are ceramic and are dishwasher, microwave, and oven safe! I would recommend purchasing one large container to see how you like them before purchasing the whole set.

They keep food so much fresher than any other storage container I've owned. It makes meal prep so much more enjoyable.

🍳 CARAWAY COOKWARE FIRST
IMPRESSIONS 🍳 This is my first time cooking with my new 4.5qt. sauce pan and here are my thoughts:
@Caraway
👩🏾‍🍳 The design is amazing, and the pan quality is 10/10! It comes in a few colors but the white on gold is THAT GIRL for me!

👩🏾‍🍳 The chilis from the al pastor marinade did not dye the pan, which can happen when you use plastic pans.

👩🏾‍🍳 You don't really need oil because the pan is non-stick.

👩🏾‍🍳 You can put the pan in the over for up to 500 degrees and it is safe to use across all stove types.

👩🏾‍🍳 I even used mine as a "hot plate" to cook my tortillas and that also worked really well.

These are some items that make meal prepping easy while on a GLP1.

#LTKMidsize #LTKOver40 #LTKselfcare

These are some of my recommendations if you’re just now starting your GLP1 journey.

Hair Health: I haven’t experience that much hair shedding, but I’ve been taking Nutrafol & Mary Ruth’s for a little over two years now. It’s a bit pricey but very worth it.

Weighted Vest: I use my vest almost daily when taking my dog Luca for a walk, and it helps with burning calories faster, strengthening my core and helps with posture. I would recommend starting with 15 pounds.

Strength Training: they say that you lose muscle while on the medication so it’s very important to do a couple of strength training exercises daily.

Walking Pad: I highly recommend getting a walking pad. It makes it so much easier to get your walk-in daily, especially if you’re very busy. It’s nice to have at home.

Fitness tracker: a great way to set goals for yourself. Your journey is your own. Set realistic goals for YOUR body and increase them as you go. When I first started my journey I set a goal of 15 min walks to start out. You can set a time , distance or step goal.

Hydration: I’ll admit it’s difficult to get in your daily water intake, but having a Brumate definitely makes it easier. My water stays cool all day and it doesn’t leak.
I’m a big fan of the White Peach sugar free Liquid IV.

Hope these tips help you on your journey.
