    My Advice: If You Want to Drop a Size by Memorial Day

    My Advice: If You Want to Drop a Size by Memorial Day

    Welcome back to another episode of Pep Talk & Pickleball.

    In early April I posted an Instagram reel titled, "how to lose a size by Memorial Day" and it seemed to get a lot of buzz.

    So I thought I would use this opportunity to go deeper into each of the eight things I recommended and why. You know, social media is all about short form videos to grab your attention, but I much prefer long form social media like this podcast so I can fully explain the how AND the why!



    I am hosting an informational session on my FASTer Way to Fat Loss coaching program LIVE via Zoom on April 25 at 7pm CT/8pm ET and I would love to save you a spot! If you have ever felt frustrated that you are doing all the things, but you can't seem to shed the inches in your midsection, this would be a great information session to attend!

    Healthy Aging: Wisdom Shared by My Vibrant Mom

    Healthy Aging: Wisdom Shared by My Vibrant Mom

    In this week's episode of Pep Talk & Pickleball I am sharing an interview I did with my very own mother, Judy Broemmel.

    My mom is 87 and a retired registered nurse. She has always led a very healthy lifestyle so I thought it would be fun to hear what she has to say about staying healthy through the decades.

    Everyone loves Judy, and I'm sure you will, too! :)

Love your podcast!

I love your podcast and am also a pickleball addict and a snowbird in SW Florida. Maybe I’ll run into you at the Pickleplex one of these days. I’m very interested in learning more about nutrition and hydration as well. Deb M
