“I had tried so many diets and lost weight with them, but never really kept it off. I had assumed my metabolism had slowed and now I’d have trouble losing weight. I attended a seminar iCoach Nutrition held and was impressed with their knowledge. I thought they’d at least keep me accountable if nothing else. I talked to Justin after the seminar, still unsure if they could help me, and he asked me to give it three months, go all in and if I wasn’t happy then I could cancel. Right from the beginning, I realized they were different. Justin and Stephany were always available to answer questions (even the ones I already knew the answer to). My coach is Stephany. The first thing she did was look at what I did in the past and try to adjust my path so it worked for my life while also making me healthier. There was more focus on how I felt. I loved to workout, but was always so exhausted during and after workouts, that I didn’t enjoy them anymore. She started me eating more. I went from 1300 calories to 2000. She changed my sleeping patterns, the time of day I started eating (I use to be able to go a whole day without eating). I was still losing, but now I felt better. I had more energy and less cravings. She focused on how my body felt and in the process, we learned I’m allergic to a few foods. Also ailments I thought I had like IBS, were really food allergies and once we removed that food, I no longer experienced any symptoms. She got me thinking more about what type of foods I’m eating. I also discovered some bad habits that I didn’t even realize I had. She supplied recipes for some vegetables that I would have swore I hated, that now I look forward to. This is the first time in my life that I feel like I will not only lose, but will keep it off this time. I never feel like I’m on a diet, because I’m really not. I can have anything I want in moderation. It’s just once you start thinking about the whole process of food in a different way, a healthier way where food isn’t the enemy, you tend not to crave it as often.” -Jhenifer
