My name is Kristy and I would like to share a little about myself and where I am with my weight loss journey and how I got here. I have struggled with my weight and self-image for most of my adult life. Over the years I have tried pretty much every diet out there including spending hundredths of dollars on diet pills just to lose then gain back the same 20-30 pounds. This has caused me to have an unhealthy relationship with food and the scale. I would weigh myself 10-plus times a day and allow the number on the scale to control me, I would nearly starve myself to get the scale to go down only to find the numbers increasing. This was my life cycle for years until I found Macros, Inc. I was fearful of change and skeptical initially. I always thought I couldn't afford a personal coach and was unsure if I could achieve the results I was looking for. I decided to take the first step and signed up for nutrition coaching end of August 2022, that day marks the first day of my amazing journey. I was paired with a coach I immediately felt comfortable with, her name is Catherine Adams. Catherine has been by my side this entire way, guiding me in the right direction and giving me the tools I need for a successful journey. After several months of getting my nutrition on track, I was ready to take the next step and add the training program for the complete coaching experience. I started training with Catherine in November of 2022. With the help of Catherine and the support from my fiance, I have lost 25 pounds in total so far but that is not all. I have gained so much more. I have gained the knowledge and the skill set for lifelong success, I now can weigh myself daily and know the scale is just a number, not a reflection of my eating the day before. I no longer allow the scale to control my actions. I've learned that weight fluctuations are okay. I've learned what eating "healthy" looks like and that I can still have treats and lose weight, I've learned I can still go out to eat, go to social events, or go on vacation and stay on track with my goals. I've learned to not beat myself up when I do go off track, I've learned to brush myself off and get back on track with the start of a new day. This journey has not been easy, I have shed more tears than I would like to admit but it's worth it. I have a long ways to go but I always look back at how far I've come. I am ready to lose the remaining 20 pounds and keep the weight off for life! I am ready to achieve results I never knew were possible for me to achieve. I am so excited I found Macro's Inc, this experience is truly life-changing! If you're on the fence about the coaching experience, do it! Do it for yourself, you deserve it!
