LIFE AND HEALTH UPDATES

2021-02-23 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 17 min

Chantal (Foodie Beauty) gives a personal life and health update after a recent ER visit for a painful, draining soft-tissue infection in her mons pubis/FUPA. She describes tests and treatment (IV fluids, CT scan, IV antibiotics, then oral amoxicillin), ongoing pain and drainage, and follow-up with her family doctor about high fasting blood sugar (14) and starting Ozempic. She reviews digestive and liver issues (inflammation, frequent diarrhea, fatty liver), side effects from antibiotics, and plans a drastic lifestyle change focused on anti-inflammatory, low-fat, high-fiber, gut-friendly meals, home-cooked food, and more exercise (dance workouts). She mentions organizing groceries and kitchen, preparing meals (brown rice pasta, homemade tomato sauce, split pea soup), getting workout clothes from Torrid, paying someone to shovel her driveway, and caring for her cats.
