New (or old?) realizations about the importance of well aging | Doctor Anne

If you had told me beforehand that I would gain important insights on well-aging on my latest trip and would feel compelled to share them with you on here, I would not have believed you. You might have seen that a little while ago my husband and I went on a mini-break without the children. One week just the two of us, in an all-inclusive hotel in sunny Tenerife. (More info: My in-flight travel skincare routine) All inclusive is not something we have ever done before as a couple, mainly…

5 fitness and health tips for mums (and other busy People)

Links in this blogpost may be affiliate links. Please read disclaimer. Five tips, because that is what all the magazines do. And because it only looks good on camera when you count on one hand. But I will throw in something else here at the beginning. Not a tip, but actual advice!     If you don´t know your way around working out or healthy eating, go talk to a professional. Get a medical check, book a PT, or even trust an experienced friend. But please have someone that knows…

We get the glow – Looking back at week three

I just realized I managed to write three blogpost about Diet Coke. Three! In a row! I guess this is an all time low, both for my nutrition and my writing. So no more rambling about fizzy drinks, on to my next rant: Going gluten free.     As we enter week four of the challenge, it is time to focus on the gut. Beat the bloat is the title of the corresponding chapter, and while I wholeheartedly agree with the importance of healthy gut bacteria (great topic, I know),…

We get the glow: Week one – The Recap

We are way into week two already as I write this, but I won’t give anything away. This is about week one, and as much as I want to tell you all about my struggles, I will exercise self-control and stay true to the timeline.     This is about week one, and let me tell you, it was a hard week. At least for me. My mother wasn’t affected much. She has always been the one with the healthier eating habits. But for me, everything Madeleine wrote about the…

We get the glow – The introduction

Remember when I announced I was starting a series on You Tube with one of my favorite persons? Well, today is the day. And the person I refer to is … drumroll… my mom.     The reason she agreed to join me in front of the camera is a six weeks program we are going to start. The six weeks “Get the glow” plan from Madeleine Shaws book.

Intermittent fasting and my 9 months postpartum body update

After filming my 6 months postpartum update where I talked about my diet and exercise routine, I received a lot of questions about Intermittent Fasting, or interval fasting as it is called in Germany.     Some of the questions were repetitive, so I decided to go into more depth with this video, covering the scientific background, different options of how to do it and the beneficial effects it has on your health, even if you don´t need to loose any weight.

Weight loss and body changes after pregnancy

There were many things I wanted to know when I got pregnant. I wanted to know if I would be a good mom. I wanted to know how my life was going to change. I wanted to know what labor would feel like. And, superficial woman that I am, I wanted to know how my body would change and how (and if) I would ever get back to my pre-baby body. Bounce back, as it is called these days.     Now, two pregnancies later, it is the question that always…

Body image after giving birth

Now that you are reading this, Peanut will most likely have arrived and I will be completely caught up in the wants and needs of this tiny human being. And while the first weeks (months?) after welcoming a new member of the family are usually spend in a fog caused by hormones, sleep deprivation and utter exhaustion, I know that I will someday emerge, look into a mirror and try my very best not to hate what I see.     This post, of course, needs a disclaimer. I am fully aware…
