I’ve shared before that I was in a low spot just six months ago. I was four months postpartum and my jeans were getting tighter and tighter. It’s not so fun to go shopping for pants because you have to get a bigger size. I felt like I was walking in a fog. I had to make myself roll out of bed in the mornings. I didn’t feel like myself at all. It was January…time for new starts so I shared on an Instagram story that I needed and wanted to lose weight in 2019. An IG friend, Becca, reached out and invited me to join her next Faster Way to Fat Loss group.

Y’all, I almost said no. Don’t ask me why because I don’t even understand it. Maybe because I was scared of the accountability? Maybe because I was scared of change (even though I desperately wanted change)? Or maybe I was just scared that I’d fail…again.

I’m not sure I can even tell you why I said yes. But I did and I thank the good Lord I did. Because by the third week of the program, I realized I was actually enjoying the way I was eating. I didn’t feel deprived at all. I loved the community of friends I had made in our small little accountability group. The workouts were hard some days, but I was getting stronger each day.

And then it was the end of our round and I was sad! So I signed up to do a Round 2! My clothes were getting loose. I could actually do push ups…like the regular kind! I was hopping out of bed at 6am and I didn’t feel like I was dragging. My 40th birthday happened and I rocked a red dress and felt amazing. I realized I had finally found a way to eat and live for the rest of my life.

I became a coach and I still pinch myself that I get to help others find themselves too. My first group is in Week 2 and I have cried happy tears as they share their own non-scale victories. I have been blessed beyond measure because I said yes to myself.

I almost let so many excuses take this feeling away from me. Whatever excuse is holding you back, knock it away! You deserve to be the best you. Your family deserve the best you too! I’d love to help you change your story. This program is for anyone and everyone. Whether you need to lose weight or tone up. AND it’s all done online so I can help you, no matter where you live! You can sign up for my next round here! If you have questions, the fastest way to get me is DM me on Instagram @thefrontporchfarmhouse
