Eleve Update: DEXA Scan
One year ago, I nervously stepped onto the DEXA scan machine at Eleve, not quite sure what I'd see-or what the numbers would mean.Today, I went back for my 1-year scan... and the results tell a pretty powerful story. My body score went from 74 to 76 out of 100.Not a massive jump, but proof that steady, consistent chang...

Eleve Update: Making a Yummy Snack a Little Better
I've learned through the Vitality Program at Eleve that there is almost always a healthier alternative-you just have to be willing to experiment a little. Over the past few months, I've discovered some great substitutes for foods I used to make all the time... and honestly, I don't miss the originals nearly as much as ...

Eleve Update: Maintaining
I started the Eleve Vitality program last February. It started with all the testing so we could see the data of where I was at in the beginning. I was measured, had pictures taken, blood drawn, did the DEXA scan, resting metabolic, and VO2 Max testing all to get the baseline. I got my plan from Katrina and Dr. Babiarz ...

Eleve Update: Prevention is the New Correction
When I started working with Eleve on the Vitality Program 11 months ago, I was nervous and excited. I knew I wasn't unhealthy, but I wasn't as healthy as I could be. I learned that there were some serious health complications in my future if I didn't take action now. High cholesterol runs in my family so I knew that ev...

Eleve Update: I didn't want to but I did
I did not sleep well last night. And by "not well," I mean I spent 7 hours and 48 minutes in bed but only managed 6 hours and 13 minutes of restless, broken sleep. I woke up almost every hour, and around 2 a.m. my brain decided it was a great time to be fully awake. My average overnight heart rate was 78-whic...

Eleve Update: BBL Totally Worth the Embarrassing Misunderstanding
So last week I told you about my daughter announcing to her cheerleading squad and all the people in my section at the basketball game that I had a BBL, which the kids all interpret as a Brazilian Butt Lift, but in my case is actually Broadband Light therapy. I had my second session last week Friday and my coworker, Tr...

Eleve Update: The day my daughter announced my 'BBL' in public
As you know, I recently had a BBL... and no, not that BBL. I'm talking Broadband Light Therapy at Eleve! It's a skincare treatment that uses light to target dark spots-both on the surface and deeper within the skin-to help bring back that youthful, fresh glow. As we get older, age spots and sun damage start popping up ...

Eleve Update: Broadband Light Therapy
Two weeks ago, I went to Eleve for the Broadband Light Therapy. Here's how my skin looked before with tinted moisturizer on. The laser treatment targets dark spots and brings them to the surface and then they fade away. Here's what my skin looks like in the same makeup two weeks later: My skin looks smoother, glowing, ...

Nikki got a BBL at Eleve!

Of course, they thought I was going in for a Brazilian Butt Lift, but actually I was going for Broadband Light Therapy. Broadband Light Therapy is a nonsurgical, noninvasive way to improve skin texture and address concerns like a...

Eleve 6 Month Blood Test Results

He told me that I'm doing great. I know I feel great, but it is wonderful to see the evidence and talk to an expert to confi...

Eleve: Traveling is a challenge
I just got back from a work trip to a conference in New Orleans, the home of beignets, etouffee, jambalaya, muffulettas, and gumbo. Etouffee, jambalaya, and gumbo all contain rice which I'm not supposed to eat right now. Muffulettas are sandwiches and I'm not supposed to eat bread. Beignets are amazing pillow puffs of ...
