After struggling with weight during COVID, I also received a diagnosis of ovarian cancer. The steroids and treatment led to more weight gain, and after a year of chemo treatments and 3 surgeries, I knew I needed to work at getting my health back on track, including weight loss. Cheryl provided exactly what was needed as I slowly built the steps needed to not only lose weight, but regain strength, balance, and self-confidence. When I was hard on myself, Cheryl offered grace, mixed with a perfect dose of real talk. She provided not only facts about weight loss but also helped me visualize a new reality of a more active lifestyle and hope. Not only have I lost 30 pounds, I have maintained that loss through a very stressful year, using all the tools Cheryl shared with me. When I began, I couldn't complete one squat. Due to abdominal surgeries, I didn't have the balance to do many of the basic movement training required. Cheryl provided alternatives as needed until I was able to do more. She also provided a sounding board, which allowed me to embrace some mind shifts for a more healthy approach to eating, training, and life in general. I am leaving coaching for now, knowing that I have the tools I need to continue to maintain my health, while still being plugged into the Macros community online. I can't say enough about the positive community, and the professionalism of Cheryl as a coach (and friend!)
