Health and wellness check-in – 24 September 2023



I check in for a week summary of my health and wellness (social, mental, and physical) this past week (Monday 18 to Sunday 24 September 2023). It was a more social week that was fun and creative mentally and I made the majority of my workouts. I worked on maintenance and weight regulation in relation to both 1) filming and publishing at least one sweet and/or savory eats video each day and 2) my running.
