Finding My Way To Healthy

05/06/2026

Early signs of dementia are often subtle.

And because of that, they’re easy to dismiss.

Small memory lapses.
Changes in mood or behavior.
Confusion that comes and goes.

It’s natural to explain them away—
stress, aging, being tired.

But noticing patterns over time matters.

Awareness doesn’t mean jumping to conclusions, it just means paying attention. 💛

Did you notice signs early, or only in hindsight?

Eating with dementia isn’t always about appetite.

It can be confusion, anxiety, or simply not connecting the steps involved.

Meals that used to be routine can become overwhelming.

That’s why flexibility matters so much.

Sometimes it’s not about the “perfect meal”, it’s about finding what works in that moment.

Because something is always better than nothing. 💛

Dementia isn’t just one condition.

It’s a general term for a group of disorders that affect the brain.

Alzheimer’s is the most common but there are others, like vascular dementia (that’s my mom’s diagnosis) and Lewy body dementia.

Each one can look a little different, which is part of why dementia is often misunderstood.

The more we understand it, the more compassion we can have. 💛

Did you know there were different types of dementia?

Dementia isn’t just about memory loss.

It affects how someone thinks, reacts, and even how they experience everyday life.

I’m seeing firsthand that it can impact:
• emotions
• behavior
• communication
• even things like eating and routine

It’s layered…and often misunderstood.

The more we understand it, the more compassion we can have—for those living with it and those caring for them. 💛

For the month of May, I’m going to be sharing more about dementia.

Not from a textbook…but from real life.

Because health isn’t just what we eat or how we move—
it’s also what we walk through with the people we love.

If you’re on this journey too, I hope this brings understanding, support, and maybe a little encouragement along the way. 💛

I’m starting a 30-Day Plank Challenge on May 1st and I’d love for you to join me.

Nothing crazy. Just a little stronger every day.

We’ll build up slowly, take rest days, and cheer each other on.

You can do it on your knees, against a counter…wherever you’re starting is perfect.

If you want in, comment below and I’ll drop the link to the group in the comments.

Let’s do this together 💪
