“When I started coaching, I wasn’t sure what to expect. When my first coach left, I was devastated, didn’t think they could ever find me a coach like what I had. The placement team assigned me to Coach Connor and I was absolutely blown away. He was everything I wasn’t. I’m hard on myself, he taught me to give myself grace. I was assigned to him less than a week before I had shoulder surgery. He got me through that surgery and was there every step of the way. This year I’ve had 2 deaths in the family very close in time and an international move where I moved from Germany back to the U.S. He has been so patient with me through everything! He is amazing! Always so positive, no matter how hard you try to get him to be negative! He was my helicopter dad because I did insane challenges when he was my coach and all he would say is, “I know you’ll beast it, but please be careful!” I would recommend that Macros, Inc. team over and over again!”
“Choosing to work with a health coach was the best idea I’d ever had regarding my health. I had struggled with my eating habits and overall well-being for years, and I knew I needed help. Tessa made me always feel supported and understood. My plan was specific to me and was changed based on my needs, whether that was due to life changes or from progress needing to take the next step. My plan was designed using my lifestyle, preferences, and goals. She tailored the program to fit me perfectly. Tessa’s expertise and encouragement helped me stay accountable and motivated, even during tough days. Over the past couple of years I’ve improved my nutrition and learned how to manage stress in a healthy way. I’ve lost weight, but more importantly, I feel empowered and confident in making choices that prioritize my health. I couldn’t have done it without Tessa’s guidance and support!”
“I had an amazing coaching experience with Brittany. I had been stuck at a plateaued point for several years and she helped me reach new levels in the gym. My confidence is better, my form is better, my nutrition is better and overall I feel healthier and more fit! I have learned so much nutrition wise, and am absolutely addicted to tracking my food. I went from probably consuming 100 g of veggies a day to 400 to 800 g a day. I was able to start using the smith machine and a lot of other equipment at the gym that I was unfamiliar with prior to coaching. Always having someone in my corner to keep pushing me was exactly what I needed! Truly grateful for such an amazing experience!”
“I absolutely LOVED my coaching experience. When I joined it was because I had been successful losing weight by tracking macros but over a 2-3 year period I was slowly creeping back in weight and having a hard time staying motivated by myself. I signed up because I recognized that I needed someone to be accountable to as well as having someone help me through the process. Coach Keshia did that and then some! She was great about first wanting to understand my goals and how I have lost weight in the past, what my day-to-day was like and how I liked to train. From there she created a custom strength training program for me and over time we adapted that by either changing it from 5 days to 4 days and switching out some of the exercises. Coach Keshia also gave me some tough love when I would complain about the scale not moving and she would point out that some of the food/drink decisions I was making was impacting the progress but that was OK. She also did a great job of making sure that perfection was not the key, consistently was the key. The game changer came about when she could tell I was exhausted from being in a deficit for so long and she told me that while I had a number in mind to get to that she felt it was time to STOP the diet and transition to maintenance and she helped me through that mental shift. The thing she helped with was getting me off the scale and just live in maintenance and just get used taking your measurements and seeing how your clothes fit. It has been a few months since I got on that pesky scale and it has really helped me big time. I was actually sad to end my coaching engagement but over the past year Coach Keshia shared articles (she knew what a nerd I was and loved the science behind this), podcasts, and books that have all gotten me to a place that I feel good about doing this on my own. She was great at talking me off so many ledges, looking at food menus when I had work dinners and helping me pick out what I was going to order (my co-workers all became obsessed with what she would recommend to me), to giving me that boost of confidence when I would send pictures or videos. She celebrated my successes and she kept my spirits up when I was feeling down. Like I said, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED my coaching experience and it was the best thing that I have spent time and money on! (feel free to use my starting picture and my last picture on 11/9/24, you can see the difference that time makes.”
“My coach was unbelievably supportive. She offered balanced and sound guidance even as my goals changed. She helped me clarify and understand exercise, nutrition and my body better. She is a wonderful coach!”
“This experience was everything I hoped it would be. I needed someone to keep me accountable because for some reason, I just couldn’t do this for myself. I needed someone watching. I already knew how to count macros but my issue was being consistent. I give up on myself too fast if I have a day of bad eating or if the scale doesn’t say what I think it should. Ally taught me to chill out. The all or nothing mindset I once had is gone. I have learned that I can live my life, have fun out occasionally and still meet my goals. I lost 50 pounds in 12 months and spent the last 6 months maintaining that loss. I’m not done yet, but Ally has taught me everything I need to do to lose/maintain again and for the first time I can say, I am confident in my ability to do so. Forever grateful for Ally and Macros Inc as a whole. Y’all are rockstars!”
“Had an excellent experience working with two different coaches over ~30 month period. Both took an individualized approach to provide feedback and encouragement tailored to my needs and motivation. Began with nutrition only to create accounability post-Covid to reset good habits, my experience was so positive and once I reached my goal within about 5-6 months, I opted to extend and add the fitness coaching as well. Both coaches responded to what I enjoyed, provided flexibility in programming to accomodate travel and adjusting to shifting from group fitness classes to mostly strength training. Additionally, got excellent support as I transitioned from tracking to long term maintenance. Macros Inc/coaches have been outstanding and would recommend without hesitation.”
“I truly believe that I was paired with this most amazing person for a reason.. Connor has been absolutely fantastic.. so very knowledgeable and always always there no matter the time of day. Always so motivating, there to push you that extra mile .. I will be forever grateful for him.”
“I've been with Macros Inc on and off throughout my journey, but this year, I committed to coaching with a goal of becoming smaller. What I didn't expect was to emerge stronger than ever before, to find peace with my relationship with food, and to maintain nearly the same weight on the scale as I did 365 days ago. Under Braden Ripley's guidance, I've learned to stop tying my self-worth to the number on the scale. I've gained more confidence than I ever thought possible, along with a deep belief in my ability to tackle tough challenges. Braden has a unique ability to say just enough to spark your thinking and guide you as you find your own solutions. He customizes every workout to fit my specific needs and schedule, and makes adjustments as necessary. And, to my surprise, I no longer dread Bulgarian Split Squats as much—Braden seems to have a magical way of changing your perspective on even the toughest exercises.”
“It was a very powerful experience!! You will learn so much about nutrition and health. You will gain knowledge about what tools will help you navigate the right way to healthy eating during a calorie deficit!! I highlybrecommend Tina Cix, she is an amazing coach!!”
“I was hesitant at first bc I had a bad experience previously with another company but this has been a great experience and I have learned so much not only about myself but food.”
“Susanne has been a PHENOMENAL coach for me! As an early 50s, permimenopausal, already small woman with not much weight to lose, the deck certainly felt stacked against me. I had a lot of bias to work through around some of the ideas that we have all heard around the dreaded SCALE. She was very patient with me as I worked through my headspace and evolved my attitudes. She just kept repeating, reinforcing, and leveraging situations to help me understand this and she never gave up on me.
I whined a lot, cried a lot, complained a lot but she was very patient and empathetic. Probably the very best thing she does, though, is not just answer the question - she always gave me a different perspective to think about, and more information to view situations holistically versus just how I thought they'd be viewed. She helped me understand how my sleep, nutrition, stress and energy are all related and helped me simplify things for a while. In clearing some of this headspace, and armed with this extra education, I was able to focus on the real task at hand: the MENTAL work I needed to do to reframe my relationship with food and pay better attention to my body and its needs.
However, I had to do my part by listening, and accepting and setting aside my biases and trusting the process. There are good days and bad days. It all comes with the territory.
Susanne has the patience of a saint, the wisdom of a sage and the heart of a giant. THANK YOU! I love you!
To anyone looking for coaching: GO FOR IT. I recommend at least 6 months to help you get through most daily and special occasion type situations, depending on your needs and lifestyle. Then get ready to be really, really honest with yourself. Ask your coach ALL the questions. Every single one of them. Some of this is an exercise in humility. Some of it is in self-reflection, confidence, acceptance. It is hard to admit when habits aren't good and even harder to change them, but the goal here IS a positive outcome and believe me, it's worth it. It will ultimately benefit you in ways you didn't even realize that it could.”
“I came to Macros Inc looking for help in my fat loss journey. I had been tracking macros using other platforms for over a year and just could never get any real results. I never had hired a coach so I was trying to get results on my own and deciding by myself how much (or how little) to eat and was not seeing any changes in my body. When I first joined I didn't have that much fat to lose, but Coach Garrett has guided me over the last year to feeling, and looking like my best self. What I really appreciated is that Coach Garrett always reminded me that our goal was to work together to help me look good but feel great. In the beginning, I didn't even have a goal weight or certain look in my mind, but somehow Coach Garrett was able to help me get to a spot where I feel like I look good from the outside, but I feel even better on the inside.
I lead a very busy lifestyle, working up to 60 hours a week during my busiest times of the year. Coach Garrett helped me work through the busy times and didn't add any pressure about perfectly hitting my macros and constantly reminded me that this is a long journey and there isn't a timeline we needed to adhere to. He always encouraged me to do anything I can to feel good on the inside, whether that was sleeping more or working out, or taking a break and not working out for a week, etc. Macros Inc and Coach Garrett helped me reach my goals while still being able to be committed to my other obligations! I loved that the flexibility was there when I needed it, but I was able to also stay committed to my fat loss goals at the same time. I never thought I'd be able to be in the place I am now and I cannot thank Coach Garrett enough for all his help and guidance over the last year!”
“Coach Brooke helped me navigate the process of counting macros and made the process light-hearted and fun. When my calendar was packed full and I didn't have time to exercise or cook perfectly healthy, she reminded me that "I could do anything, but not everything." Giving myself grace in those tough moments is exactly what I needed, and she was always encouraging. I highly recommend Macros Inc coaching to give that extra accountability when the going gets tough.”
“Taylor is absolutely amazing! I have been with her since 2020 and have learned so much about myself, healthy eating habits and the best way to train. If I could I would be a macros, inc client forever! The experience has undone about 40 years of disordered eating!”
“This wasn't my first time hiring a Macros coach. I requested a different coach from who I had worked with previously. Then during the time from sign up to my initial intake call I started getting coach remorse. What did I do??? I asked to switch back to my prior coach, but it was suggested to have my initial intake call with my new coach Steve and see what I think. Here I am, one year later and so completely thankful for Steve!
I had so many reservations, so many excuses, so many walls built up. Steve got through them all and we both made it out alive on the other side. I certainly made out for the better...Steve might be more bruised. :)
I had three primary goals:
a. Lose weight
b. Do a real push-up
C. Be stronger to play and lift my grandchildren
I am happy to have achieved all three! I took me the entire year to lose 26 pounds. I think this was really slow. Steve thinks that's a normal healthy weight loss of .5 lbs a week....oh...its SLOW
I can do ELEVEN real push-ups consecutively now! I honestly can believe this sometimes...but I have video proof. :)
My grandchildren who are 2 1/2 and 8 months are a combined 53 pounds, who I can carry together on each hip and chase Opa around the house with.
I can't thank Steve enough for his coaching. He provided what I needed throughout my entire experience. I sincerely appreciate Steve and Macro's Inc. Thank you!”
“I love this company! I have had great experiences with both of the coaches i have had. I would recommend using this company if you have the means to do so.”
“I signed up for six months and blew past my original goals, achieving things I never thought possible! I have been so thrilled with my Macros Inc coaching experience that I signed up for another year. I’m excited to keep progressing! Thank you to my coach and the MI team! Highly recommend!”
“I'm finishing up my third year with coach, Tessa Codina. My overall experience has been pretty dang amazing. Tessa is truly a blessing in my life. I started at a point of not liking how I felt in my own skin to losing +/- 40 pounds so far and feeling great! Tessa has seen me through it all with the nutrition piece and the training. She's helped guide me through the learning process with tracking macros as well as through a couple injuries including a broken toe about a year or so ago and a minor broken finger about a month ago. My training has been adjusted to meet my needs at every stage along the way. Not only has Tessa and Macros Inc helped me with the weight loss but, it's also provided me with a ton of personal growth through the ups and downs over the last three years as well and free education. I know the information I receive is reliable and I can trust it, and I love to share it with others when they ask me how I've done it all. This has been the best investment I've ever made in myself! I'm looking forward to starting year four with Tessa and Macros Inc soon! :)”
