#274 - Building muscle, losing body fat ...

KITTY BLOMFIELD
About this episode

This week I interviewed one of our amazing clients from the UK. Lauren shares her transformative journey with us, from feeling stuck in a cycle of restrictive diets and crappy training programs to embracing a lifestyle that has her eating more, training smartly, and seeing remarkable changes. Despite her love for food and skepticism about the program, Lauren went all in, tackling bloating issues, and learning the importance of balanced nutrition and resistance training for sustainable weight loss.

Lauren achieved an incredible loss of nearly 17 inches off her body measurements while gaining lean muscle mass, showcasing the power of focusing on body composition rather than just weight loss. The program has taught her the significance of macronutrients and the value of strength training, especially for women in their 40s.

Lauren highlights how the program has allowed her to enjoy a wide array of foods without feeling deprived, improving her bloating significantly with simple, yet effective dietary tweaks like the famous carrot salad. One of Lauren’s favorite aspects of the program is its family-friendly approach to meals, debunking the myth that healthy eating requires separate meals from the family.

Initially daunted by the gym and mastering the nutrition aspect, Lauren now finds joy in her workouts and is mastering her meal plans, demonstrating that with the right support and commitment, overcoming personal hurdles is entirely possible.

For anyone sitting on the fence about joining the program, Lauren’s message is clear: go for it! The supportive community, expert coaching, and practical, non-restrictive approach to nutrition and exercise have made a significant impact on her life.
