This time last year I was the heaviest I have ever been. I was tired all the time, I had awful insomnia, and I couldn’t get through my day without taking a nap. My poor diet and lack of exercise not only affected my sleep and my weight, but it also began to affect my skin. My eczema was constantly flaring up and I had developed dermatitis on my face. I knew something had to give. I wanted to change how I ate and be more active. But for months it was just a dream, a goal with no action or deadline. I wanted change so badly but did not have the energy nor the motivation to make any kind of moves. Then, a very lucky thing happened. I had won a contest for three months of one on one nutrition coaching with Andrea. I was skeptical, but excited, knowing that I would have a professional on my team to keep me accountable. So, the change was difficult. But! It was only difficult when I was not putting the work in. But Andrea, with the most gentle sternness, held me accountable. And more importantly, praised me for my accomplishments and encouraged me to continue to push myself further and further each week. So I began to do my work. I found as the weeks went on, and as I absorbed all the knowledge I could from Andrea, I was making good choices and prioritizing my health. Not only did I begin to see changes in my body, (losing weight and inches) but I felt different. I was no longer sluggish and moody. I woke up and felt ready to take on the day, ready to challenge myself. For the first time since I can remember, I was sleeping all the way through the night. All these amazing changes were because of the work I was putting in and the choices I was making. But it would not have been a reality if it wasn’t for Andrea’s constant motivation and kindness. She not only addressed my dietary issues but my overall health. And even after our time working in the program together, Andrea still continues to reach out to check in on my progress. If you’re not sure if one on one coaching is for you, I have to tell you, I felt the same way. I always wanted a healthy active body, but in the back of my mind, I never thought I could really have it. A healthy body is a gift only you can give yourself, no one else can. But now I can say proudly that when you do the work, you truly with reap the reward. Andrea’s guidance will help you track and reach your goals in the time you work together and beyond. I learned things from her that I will carry with me as healthy habits for a long time ahead. Prioritize your health. Prioritize you! Ready to do the work or not, reach out to her, I truly believe she can help you reach your goals.
