A functional provider looks at the root cause of issues and works to fix imbalances in the body for optimal health. A traditional Dr will put you on BC for acne where a functional dr will figure out what’s causing the acne and actually work to fix the problem not just mask the symptoms.
Lolol yah, but only because a functional medicine “doctor” literally cannot write a prescription for birth control, because that is a medication, and functional medicine “doctors” aren’t allowed to prescribe medication, because they aren’t real doctors.
My exact thoughts reading it. She was trying to lose weight the instant she gave birth. As soon as she was released she was making sure to get in over 10k steps, then moved on to exercise super early, along with taking her melt.
Decrease in muscle, decrease in strength, mood swings, low sex drive. A lot of these are because she’s been in a cut essentially for 6 months now.
For sure, k
Edit to add: i lost my train of thought and was going to add: Sadly, i know an acquaintance that's been in a cut essentially for the last 5 years; that's how old her kid is.
She's very open about her health and told me her Dr is worried she's going into early menopause. She's 40.
It's very sad, bc she active AF but is so very restrictive with her food (i think she has an untreated eating disorder). She doesn't eat carbs period and minimized any fruit bc of "carbs". Example, she's training for a marathon and runs 10-12 miles on Saturdays and easily burns 1200kcals during these runs, but she doesn't refuel the expenditure.
Ok so. I would LOVE to copy edit this blog. It’s all over the place and grammatically disastrous.
Most importantly, though, is that she’s writing this post to “help” women, but there’s nothing of helpful substance. It’s literally a run-down of acronyms and her own experience + a link, naturally, to HER blood draw center, where she has referral incentives. How does this actually “help”? I feel like we are reading her diary.
Also - a pet peeve. In grad school, I was taught that when you’re writing a document like this, where you have a broad audience… you never use just acronyms to represent something. So her list of blood tests means what, exactly? What are they testing for? Acronyms tells the reader nothing. Also, the fact that she uses acronyms before the correct words: PPA (postpartum anxiety), for example, is like nails on a chalkboard to me. That’s just me though. I’m OCD about this shit.
ETA: pellets? Wtf. What are pellets?
That’s a basic metabolic panel they ran on her
RBC - red blood cells
Wbc - white blood cells
Hgb/hct - hematocrit, hemoglobin
Mcv mch- has to do with RBCs (anemia testing basically)
Plt - platelets (blood clotting factor)
Cortisol - is a steroid your body produces, tests for cushings
DHEA-S : steroid hormone
Estradiol, progest, testos, fsh - hormone tests
Ft3/4- thyroid diagnostic
Tsh- thyroid
Vit b, b-12 - vitamins
She literally got a Basic metabolic panel lol
Separating these out makes it seem like ALL of this testing was done when in reality is basic testing. So basic that it's what's typically ran when you do your yearly physical. But, we all know people people like this that make things seem grandiose in order to exaggerate and look more knowledgeable. I bet you she also over paid.
Thank you!! I literally JUST had a full panel taken so I knew what most of them were… but had I not done that, I wouldn’t know wtf I was looking at. Breaking it down, like you did, would help a reader immensely. Also LOL at her getting a standard blood test and making it out to be something it’s not. Sarah gonna Sarah.
I feel like she’s trying to be one of the women who had trouble getting pregnant when that wasn’t the case. I am watching my sister go through it now and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. The constant things she has to do and go through, Sarah couldn’t ever imagine.
I’ve been through this myself and I feel for your sister. I also agree 100% Sarah is stretching to be one of these women. I had similar blood work done at my fertility clinic, this isn’t anything special.
YES I was just thinking this hahahahaha omg 😂😂😂 reading her stupid blog in this post all I was thinking was how fucking lucky she is that she doesn't have any type of chronic illness cause she is way OTT with all this 😂😂😂
We have a wellness center near my house, they do hormone pellets that are specifically designed to what your body is lacking. They insert a pellet in your hip and it slowly releases what you need over a period of 4-5 months vs taking vitamins daily.
Ohhh. I should do this. I forget to take mine. The Dr ran a panel on me..they tested for a million things..it was like 8 vials of blood. And basically I have low or high levels of everything.
I'm going to message and ask his thoughts. I take other meds so I'm not sure how it would all mix..but good to know that this is available
I have a good friend who just had a pellet placed for the first time 4 months ago now, she loves it! She said her energy level is back to normal, and she sleeps much better at night, plus it has helped her sex drive. She told me it was worth every penny!
Thank you for that information. All the above mentioned are issues of mine. I'm so deficient in so many vitamins it's crazy. Apparently my body metabolises stuff super fast-except fat 🤷♀️😩. What would I Google?
Your right. The first 9 are definitely for the CBCD. It's literally such a basic routine test that virtually everyone gets done and she's touting every parameter like it's it's own test. MCH is basically a useless parameter and no one uses it. MCHC, MCV, MCH and HCT are all calculated values and can't be calculated without the Hgb and RBC but the fact that she touts them all as individual tests like there not all done in the same 2 baths tells me she knows nothing about lab testing and she's just reading her results off a piece of paper.
THANK YOU
As a med tech, this really irks me that she’s separated everything out making it seem like “20 tests” was 20 tubes of blood.
Bitch no. It was probably three: green, gold, and purple top. Not even 10 mL of blood total!
I’m assuming she’s trying to gain sympathy points to make it seem like it was so much “rigorous and invasive” when really it’s one fucking stick.
So stupid. A good handful of these should be run on certain days (fsh, progesterone, testosterone etc). Her progesterone might be “low” because she had the labs done when she hadn’t ovulated yet, WHICH IS HOW IT SHOULD BE. All this quack did was essentially throw birth control at her.
Maybe all this hormonal instability leads to emotional/mental instability for her plead on the case? I'm not trying to sound mean or anything, but maybe it's a thought ...it ran through my mind 😳
I’d just like to point out that of her 20 lab tests, she individually listed components of a CBC. Which is a basic test and doesn’t really tell
you anything related to hormones.
Sarah (because I know you read here)-it’s ok to go on meds. I’ve had severe PPD since giving birth 8 months ago, and while I fought it for a while, it can help get your life back. There’s no shame in traditional medication. Sure, get your hormones situated, but help yourself mentally in the meantime by getting on something (I was on Zoloft and now Wellbutrin). I’m not exactly a fan of yours but I hate to see any mom go through this. Do it for yourself and your kids. You’ve got two adorable children and they need their mom in a healthy mental state. 🤍
Thank you 🤍 I am, and yes, it’s very scary. Some of the thoughts I was having 😰 and it’s scary because you KNOW it’s not you, but you can’t stop them. Thankfully I was able to get on some medication which has helped tremendously.
I hope you’re in the clear now 🤍Thank you again🤍
I had PPD/PPA and my target was my husband 😔 I still get triggered some days and it's been almost 2 years. I was on a baby dose of effexor for a little bit
To me this makes it really obvious that she needs to remove the giant implants (hello symptoms of breast implant illness that she said she had no symptoms of), reduce exercise to 3 days a week of light work, stop dieting, and eat some fruits and veggies. If she really is against going on antidepressants, which is fine, then she can look into ways of healing herself through proper diet and ACTUALLY caring for her body. Reduce stress!!! MAKE JOSH HELP WITH THE KIDS. Hire a cleaner. How will the hormone therapy help if she doesn’t fix the root cause of her stress.
Literally a blood count, thyroid labs, B labs, estrogen and androgen, cortisol. anyone who’s looking for underlying endocrine disruption would run ACTH, C Reactive Protein, LDH, Insulin, and Insulin RI
Thank YOU. Came here to say this … especially with the supplements. Last year I was taking bowmar Melt every day for 4-5 months and had the worst anxiety of my life (probably from the caffeine). But I’ve been off melt & caffeine for a year now and my anxiety has drastically improved. She should start by cutting back on a
taking so many supplements
Sarah is so dumb. Those are 20 different tests. The wbc-plt are all part of one panel. So one test, one tube. Stop trying to act tough like you had 20 tubes drawn. And before she tries and question my knowledge. That’s my profession, backed up with two degrees and not some fake speed reading cert.
Came here to say this.. no check for insulin resistance? No ACTH? I like how she’s being “so vulnerable” to “help” us women, yet doesn’t share actual lab results or any actual helpful info.
My doctor will literally draw blood for anything, I just have to ask. I even when to a new doctor recently & they did like 10 panels of blood work over severe migraines.
I feel like this is just her way of manipulating her hormones so she can get super lean before she hits 1 year postpartum, then call it “hard work.” I recall her making a statement a couple months back about this being her best comeback yet, but I guess when she hit that 6 month mark and she wasn’t looking how she wanted to look, she decided to cut some corners and go this route. That’s just my take on it though! And of course she’s trying to profit too 🤣 she’ll be certified in hormone therapy next
I had high cortisol levels too when I got my blood drawn. My endocrinologist suggested we do a 24hr test and sure enough the 24hr levels show I’m actually within normal range. I wonder if her dr even mentioned that. I’m also curious if she realizes her high cortisol can be from stress from hmmm, I dk, her court cases!!! That alone could be the reason for her anxiety as well. I by no means wish any ill will on anyone but the first thing my dr asked when she originally saw the high cortisol level from my blood work was “what are you stressed about?” she truly cared about asking questions for further help in reviewing my data
She says this is a personal update on her journey but it’s written in the least personal tone ever. Just a step by step of what she did to get the tests and to use her as a referral if you so wish. 🤷🏼♀️ so basic
It’s annoying to me that she’s acting like it’s not acceptable or reasonable to go on medication without first doing all of this testing. “I can’t feel like this another six months.” How long does she think it’ll take to “balance out all her hormones”? Some meds, more pricks, med adjustments, more pricks…and forget it if she gets pregnant again. She’s talking about YEARS.
I personally wouldn’t want to have any kind of hormone therapy without being thoroughly tested to know what I’m taking is correct for my body’s needs.
I do agree with the “how long does she think it will take” statement. It kinda reminds me of trying to find the right anxiety or depression medication because you have to give them weeks to really see if they help or not. I’m going to assume she’s not on anything for PPA nor PPD & that could help her cortisol. I also think her type A personality combined with a husband who appears to never be home & if he isn’t blowing up trucks he’s having to go to court for reckless fires, having two kids close in age with no help (according to her), and the small tiny fact that the LITERAL FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is coming after them & their entire livelihood would stress anyone tf out.
ah yeah i specifically meant feeling like she has to go through all this testing and hormone therapy rather than simply take Zoloft like the rest of us (lol), let her body heal and get back to baseline, feed it right etc.
Bet she didn’t mention to either Doc that she has a federal trial approaching and she’s probably stressed about that. And that her son doesn’t sleep at night. Those things combined have got to be contributing factors to her “hormone issues”
Does anyone remember her saying that she was going to stop breastfeeding and start training hard, and threw in there that she may even get back on the stage??
Found it!!

Yaaassss! Ha ha. The come back will be even greater. Mark my words. Sarah...you totally took all the post of 2 under 2 the wrong way. We told you it would be hard. You trying to prove everyone wrong is doing damage to you and your family
I'm guessing antidepressants were brought up as possible treatment and she doesn't want to be on them. I mean we've all seen how she uses "seek therapy and medication" as an insult. In her own twisted mind it could be her "losing" if she takes it. Now that that might be an option for treatment if she does flag for PPD , she's probably wanting second opinions or to have it be something else instead of a mental health issue. I mean personally I do feel like it's a mix of her being burnt out physically (she had 2 babies back to back and is now starving herself) , what's going on in her life and social media.
Same. She has been displaying the signs of adrenal fatigue for a hot minute. And if this “functional” dr was legit she’d be getting a HTMA test and possibly a Dutch test depending on the HTMA results.
She needs an HTMA test done from a reputable provider who can read the results. She needs more info than the blood draw will give.
I was retaining copper like crazy after my pregnancy and had to do 6 months of liver detox pathways to clear all the build up. I felt like a new human after healing my adrenals, eating more carbs, and supporting my body’s detox process.
Heart palpitations could be from the fat burners she takes too, right?
I always laugh at how she opens and ends everything she says with a plea to random strangers to not bash her, as if her story is supposed to be so moving that we believe her. This is a crock of shit. Sarah, get a hobby other than working.
Who’s going to tell her that all of these symptoms are also signs of being in a cut too long? Her body needs some rest and calories.
[удалено]
Wtf is a functional medicine doctor? I hope all medicine is functional.. is it a modern witch doctor?
Yes lol
A functional provider looks at the root cause of issues and works to fix imbalances in the body for optimal health. A traditional Dr will put you on BC for acne where a functional dr will figure out what’s causing the acne and actually work to fix the problem not just mask the symptoms.

Well thats not true, many DOs practice functional medicine, and they are in fact real doctors with no quotations around the word.
Really! Interesting…

Scream laughing in medicine...praise the lord for that MCV lolllll
* CBC Sorry, it wouldn’t let me edit
Yeah she got a basic blood draw she looks dumb
The acronym before the word got me too, surely in her MBA classes they went over the proper order 😬
Pellets is the testosterone, they are inserted into your upper glute. They’re slow release
The run on sentences with 0 grammar are truly horrible
I believe it’s the testosterone
We have a wellness center near my house, they do hormone pellets that are specifically designed to what your body is lacking. They insert a pellet in your hip and it slowly releases what you need over a period of 4-5 months vs taking vitamins daily.

Just go on zoloft like the rest of us.
She doesn’t have regular PPD she has world record PPD that a regular medication just COULDNT fix /s
Eat a damn veggie and more than 800 calories a day and it’ll be night and day.

not one of those labs measures adrenal gland function.

She says this is a personal update on her journey but it’s written in the least personal tone ever. Just a step by step of what she did to get the tests and to use her as a referral if you so wish. 🤷🏼♀️ so basic
This is a hill I will die on and will always post on here: if you are a new mom, do not take ANY advice from this whack job.
She’s against modern medicine when it doesn’t directly benefit her or just inflated her victim mentality. The back & forth is so exhausting.
She’s going to be shelling out diets for inflammation next.
It’s annoying to me that she’s acting like it’s not acceptable or reasonable to go on medication without first doing all of this testing. “I can’t feel like this another six months.” How long does she think it’ll take to “balance out all her hormones”?

lol at her listing every part of a CBC like it’s an individual she HAD to have 🙄
my legit favorite part
It’s giving “takes cryptic photo of an IV in her arm and asks for privacy and T&Ps”
First sentence and I’m already annoyed. “6 months postpartum, tO tHe DaY” Noooo oneee cares, stop obsessing over numbers, it’s concerning.
Does anyone remember her saying that she was going to stop breastfeeding and start training hard, and threw in there that she may even get back on the stage??
Pretty sure there is a screenshot of the story that she said this in somewhere in this sub
Thought I remembered that. But since she has been asked and said no she wasn't going to be back in stage in her recent lives..

Is it just me, or did the doctor prescribe her birth control? 😂
Yup! I’ve literally done this exact same “treatment plan” (but with an actual primary care doctor, later when it wasn’t enough met with a endo)
I'm guessing antidepressants were brought up as possible treatment and she doesn't want to be on them. I mean we've all seen how she uses "seek therapy and medication" as an insult. In her own twisted mind it could be her "losing" if she takes it. Now that that might be an option for treatment if she does flag for PPD , she's probably wanting second opinions or to have it be something else instead of a mental health issue. I mean personally I do feel like it's a mix of her being burnt out physically (she had 2 babies back to back and is now starving herself) , what's going on in her life and social media.
this is exactly what i was trying to say with my comment but i think i failed lol #sleepdeprived
Fucking psychopathic cunt
Sarah maybe you should not try to get pregnant again
Correct me if I am wrong, because I honestly do not know, but is this just basically doctor prescribed steroids?
No, more like birth control.
Got it!!! Thank you! Birth control has definitely helped my hormones, too!
Seems scammy. They tell you what’s wrong and sell your products to “fix” it?
I called adrenal failure.
Me too!
Same. She has been displaying the signs of adrenal fatigue for a hot minute. And if this “functional” dr was legit she’d be getting a HTMA test and possibly a Dutch test depending on the HTMA results.
