I am so thankful for THM! It has completely changed my life. 3 years ago, I was at the end of my health rope and busting out of my pants. I was back to pregnancy weight (my babies were 9 and 11 years old) and absolutely miserable. I hated to exercise and I love to eat, so I was resolving to just be content in the skin God gave me. I realized I was hitting my mid-thirties and this is just how it was going to be. Shortly after my New Year’s Eve ponderings, I had heard about THM from a few very dear friends, but since I don’t (won’t) diet, I shrugged it off. Only to realize 6 months later that it was time for a major change. Enter Trim Healthy Mama! I grabbed the all too overwhelming GINORMOUS science book and started reading. Being an avid reader, I was surprised at how involved all of this was. There is NO WAY I would ever fully know and understand that! So, off it went again. Back to my bad habits and unhealthy choices. October was our tipping point, my husband wanted a change as badly as I did and the kids desperately needed to gain weight. So I ordered both THM cookbooks and decided there and then to dive in head first, never looking back! Yes, it was super confusing at first, but with time, focus and sheer determination, it all started coming more easily… simply by following their recipes! Instantly we felt better after having cut the “crap”! My husband and I were able to shed 30+ pounds in the first 3 months (100% on plan eating, and no working out at all!) and have been able to maintain that loss for the past 2 years, even with extensive travels and time away from home! The kiddos have gained what we have lost by having crossovers at every meal! This plan is truly sustainable and perfect for the entire family!
We just returned from a trip to Walt Disney World and THM has given us endurance and stamina to tackle the park hopping day in and day out, burning the candle at both ends! I love the Food Freedom and Grace offered with this lifestyle! Sure, I went off plan on vacation. I crossed over A LOT. I knew we were running hard all day and the double fueling would be crucial! I set my boundaries and limits and stuck to them, and went right back to 100% at home! You know what, even if you bomb… dust off and 3 hours later have that THM snack or meal! You’ve got this, Mama!! I am here to cheer you on! I am also excited to share the NSV (Non-Scale Victory) that I no longer hide from full length photos and there is no more ducking behind my husband or one of the kids! This is huge for me, as I have NO pictures from before my THM journey when I had reached my highest weight. I am thankful for the energy, the satisfaction, the confidence and the business that THM has provided! I realize that all things are in God’s hands and control and I am excited to see where He will take me! I love that I am able to meet so many wonderful Mamas and help them realize their health goals! Are you looking for a change? This is a steady journey to health, not a quick fad to a number on the scale. This is for life, and I am here to tell you all about it! I’m so very thankful for Trim Healthy Mama!
