ABOUT

 I began my journey to health and becoming a health coach when I saw a picture of myself in a blue jean outfit in August of 2019. On that particular day, I got dressed, put on my make-up, and fixed my hair. I felt cute, all 275 pounds of me at 5'2”...so I thought! I had a great time at my friend's boyfriend’s family bar-b-que! Later on that night, I looked at the picture of myself and I felt sad, embarrassed, and disconnected from the woman staring back at me. I have been a heavy baby, toddler, child, teenager, young adult, woman, my ENTIRE life. However, I knew in that moment that the picture of me weighing 275 pounds was not who I truly was and I needed to make major nutritional and mindset changes.  I have a food addiction and I knew that eating certain foods in moderation (sugar, grains; rice, bread, potatoes, pasta, processed foods) would not work for me. I used to eat fast food at least twice a day with snacks in between! I  love me some Doritos and Snicker! LOL!

I became determined, disciplined, and immediately changed my nutrition. Countless trips to McDonald's, Jet's Pizza, and 7 Eleven was crippling me and I wanted to give myself a chance at a new life with endless possibilities. I decided early on to play full out and lose weight. By the grace of God, I cut out all processed food, sugar, and grains. I drank a gallon of water a day, and got at least 7 hours of sleep a night. The weight started to melt off of me! I lost 140 pounds naturally in less than 2 years. For the first time in my life, I am at a healthy body weight! (CHECK OUT MY BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS IN THE GALLERY)
