Hi, I’m Carrie, a busy, full-time mom for 2 amazing children, loving wife to my soul-mate for 12 years, figure competitor, certified personal trainer, and sports nutrition coach. I know it can be a struggle to fit fitness into your life with family, work, and every day responsibilities. As a mom and wife, I face them every day, especially when my husband’s career sends him overseas for long periods of time and I become an instant single parent. I know how to balance this hectic life and want to help others learn to balance and be healthy.
I wasn’t always fit or healthy and I have had my own weight loss journey. After the birth of my second child, I found myself 57 pounds overweight. I was actually in denial for quite some time. One Easter, my mom took a few family pictures and my first reaction was, “wow I'm big!” I knew I still had baby weight to lose, but I didn't realize just how out of shape I let myself get. I was unmotivated to do anything about it until I saw that picture and knew that wasn't me.
THE TURNING POINT
While my husband was overseas that year, I threw away all of the junk food in the house and went shopping for all the healthy foods I knew I should be eating. I knew how to do it; I just wasn't doing it. I started building a home gym, started weight lifting, and I lost 30 lbs in 3 months. I loved how my body was changing and kept going. I entered my first figure competition and took home two trophies! I haven't looked back since. I have also competed in bodybuilding, taking home first place in the middle weight division. Through my own experiences, I can relate to my clients trials and tribulations when it comes to weight loss and fitness. My goal is to teach you what a healthy lifestyle is about and help you achieve that in your own life.
With some hard work and dedication, you too can achieve your healthy life goals. This isn’t dieting, it's creating a healthy life for you and your family so you won’t have to diet again.
I am here to inspire, coach and help motivate you.
