Life Before KickStart
How was your body before Trevor Kashey Nutrition?
A swaddled marshmallow
How did that (state of being) make you feel?
It hurt to move; I had little energy, and I couldn’t do all the things I loved doing without extreme effort.
Was there anything you were unable to do that you wish you could have done?
I still did everything; it was just a lot harder and required significant effort!
During that time, how did your current state of being affect those around you?
I was easily frustrated, quick to snap, and generally irritated.
The Moment Everything Changed
How did you hear about Trevor Kashey Nutrition?
I read the book The Comfort Crisis.
What were your doubts and fears before starting the program?
That I wouldn’t get 100% in the course and that I wouldn’t have enough time to do all the course work.
What made you say YES anyway?
I was ready to commit to myself.
Life After KickStart
Where is your body/mind now?
I am energized, feeling in control of my life and decisions. I plan ahead and can deal with my emotions in a much greater way. I have lost close to 20lbs and over 14 inches off my circumference. I am stronger, fitter, and happier.
How does that make you feel?
I could take on the world! I have enough energy to do that!
What are you able to do now that you were not able to do before (mentally, emotionally, or physically)?
I am able to run, carry my canoe-tripping pack for long periods, hike and do long ascents without flagging.
The Ripple Effect
What positive impact did that have on others around you that you might not have expected?
The impact on my family. My husband has lost weight. My kids sit up at the table to eat with us voluntarily and chirp at me if I take my phone out at the meal!
