Life Before KickStart
How was your body before Trevor Kashey Nutrition?
My body was fairly healthy, but just a bit thicker than I wanted it to be. I was having trouble keeping weight off.
How did that (state of being) make you feel?
I was frustrated with the situation, tired of restrictive diets, and then gaining the weight right back.
Was there anything you were unable to do that you wish you could have done?
Fit in all of my clothes. I mean, really, I was and am pretty healthy, I just felt the weight creeping up and knew I didn’t want the weight gain to continue. The methods that had worked for me in the past just weren’t worth it anymore (super restrictive dieting for short periods)
During that time, how did your current state of being affect those around you?
My husband knew I was frustrated with the situation. My kids constantly saw me on a “special diet” and couldn’t eat what they were eating.
The Moment Everything Changed
How did you hear about Trevor Kashey Nutrition?
I heard about TKN from Michael Easter’s interview for The Comfort Crisis on Mike Rowe’s Podcast. Then
I read the book.
What were your doubts and fears before starting the program?
I had doubts that it would work and that I would spend so much money and come away in the same place.
What made you say YES anyway?
I was really hopeful based on what I had read in the Comfort Crisis that this was a science-based method that actually made sense. Talking with Kaci eased my fears about being able to earn the reimbursement for KickStart.
Life After KickStart
Where is your body/mind now?
I have almost met my goal of weight loss when I came to TKN, so I am leaner, and I am seeing some muscle definition. My mind is definitely calmer because I don’t have the constant stress of needing to lose weight or worrying about gaining it back.
How does that make you feel?
I am so freaking happy! I can’t believe how EASY it has been to lose this weight, no crazy restrictive dieting, I did it over the holidays and like a zillion birthdays and parties, and I enjoyed those events and still lost weight. It feels like a miracle!
What are you able to do now that you were not able to do before (mentally, emotionally, or physically)?
I fit in all my freaking clothes! I am stronger than I was when I started. But I just feel calmer and happier, knowing that I can keep up this lifestyle for a lifetime and stay healthy without crazy, restrictive dieting.
The Ripple Effect
What positive impact did that have on others around you that you might not have expected?
My husband has said that he is happy that I am not so frustrated with my body anymore. He is happy that I am happy and not stressed.
Jessica’s Words to You
What would you tell someone who is reading this right now and is unsure about taking the next step?
It is 1000% worth it to do this program. I can’t believe I have been doing crazy, restrictive diets my entire life, with limited or no success, when all along it has been this easy. And the support you get from TKN is just amazing.
