I got in the best shape of my life at age 37 for m I got in the best shape of my life at age 37 for my wedding… and I didn’t spend months starving myself or doing hours of cardio 💍

I wanted to feel strong, confident, and like the best version of myself when I walked down the aisle 🤍

Here’s what actually worked for me:

1. I didn’t stay in a calorie deficit for months ✨
I spent time eating at maintenance first, and then went into a deficit for 16 weeks leading up to my wedding. I didn’t spend the entire year before my wedding dieting

2. I tracked my macros 🍓
This helped me stay on track with my nutrition and be consistent with my goals.

3. I aimed for 8–10k steps a day 👟
I didn’t do any extra cardio. I just focused on getting more movement in outside of my workouts, especially because I sit for 12 hours at my nursing job and spend a lot of time sitting for school too.

4. I strength trained consistently 💪🏻
I followed a plan, focused on progressive overload, and kept showing up week after week.

5. I prioritized SLEEP 🩷
This was a huge one for me, especially with everything I was balancing. I stopped waking up at 4 AM to work out on my work days and let those days be rest days. Sleep had to come first

6. I kept things simple 💯
I stuck with the basics and stayed consistent, even when life got super busy.

And I think that was the biggest difference…. 

Getting ready for my wedding wasn’t about making myself miserable for a few months or doing anything I couldn’t maintain.

I built my routine around my life, stayed patient, and trusted that the results would come 🤍

I put together all of my wedding prep favorites + links in one place 💍

No one tells you this might be the most special pa No one tells you this might be the most special part of your wedding day ….

One of the things that meant the most to us about our wedding was having the people we love in one place 🤍

Family and friends who have been there through so many different chapters of our lives, traveled to celebrate with us, and made the entire weekend feel so special 🫶🏻

You spend so much time planning every little detail of a wedding, but looking back, it really is the people and these little moments with them that I’ll remember the most 👏🏻

Getting Leo home for our wedding was one of the th Getting Leo home for our wedding was one of the things I worried about most 🩷 He’s an 90 lb Lab, so a regular commercial flight in the cabin wasn’t an option, and I knew I wasn’t comfortable putting him in cargo.

That’s when I found @flyretrievair 🥹 They made it possible for Leo to fly from California to the East Coast right in the cabin with me. He stayed at my feet during the flight, got bathroom breaks during our layovers, plenty of treats on board, and most importantly, I got to have him with me the entire way 🤍

Leo has been by my side for over 11 years and through so many different chapters of my life. There was no way I could imagine getting married without him there.

Being able to safely get him home and have him there for one of the most important days of my life meant everything to me 🫶🏻

Forever grateful to RetrievAir for helping me get my best friend to our wedding 🐾✈️

Most fitness advice is made for someone with a pre Most fitness advice is made for someone with a predictable schedule, plenty of time, and energy left at the end of the day…

Nursing is definitely not that ‼️

But somehow we’re still told to wake up earlier, work out more, meal prep every week, and just “be consistent.”

When you’re working 12s, your schedule changes week to week, and you’re already exhausted by the time you get home, trying to follow the same routine as someone working a 9–5 just doesn’t make sense.

You don’t need to squeeze a workout in before or after every shift.

You don’t need to spend your entire day off meal prepping.

And you definitely don’t need to feel like you’re doing something wrong because you can’t stick to a “perfect” routine.

You just need to figure out what actually works around your shifts.

If you’re a nurse and you’ve been struggling with where to even start, I put together a free guide to help 💛

Comment “NURSE FREEBIE” and I’ll send it to you!

When your best friend gets to be part of your wedd When your best friend gets to be part of your wedding day 🤍

It definitely wasn’t easy getting him all the way across the country, but it was so worth it.

Leo has been by my side through so much over the last 11 years. And honestly, if it wasn’t for him, I don’t know if I would have stayed in California through some of the hardest seasons of my life. And if I hadn’t stayed in California, I never would have met Justin 🥹

He’s been there through it all, so of course he had to be there for this chapter too 🫶🏻

He’s the sweetest boy in the world and one of the brightest parts of our wedding day 🩷
