For most of my life, I struggled with my weight and my relationship with food. I tried diet after diet, counted calories, restricted foods, and promised myself that this time would be different.
But the weight always seemed to come back.
Then, at 50, my back went out—and my body was so weak that I could barely sit for any length of time. I couldn't do the things I wanted to do, and I couldn't even hold my 4-month-old grandson.
That was my turning point.
I realized that I didn't need another diet. I needed to understand why I was struggling with food in the first place and learn how to care for my body in a completely different way.
With God's help, I began changing the way I ate, reducing sugar and processed foods, nourishing my body with real food, becoming more aware of my habits, and learning to move in ways that supported my body.
I eventually lost 70 pounds—and I've kept it off for years.
But the biggest transformation wasn't the number on the scale.
I gained energy. Confidence. Freedom around food. And the belief that I could trust myself again.
Now, as a weight loss coach for women 50+, I help women discover that they aren't too old, too far gone, or too stuck to change.
You don't need to be perfect. You don't need to start over every Monday.
You need a way of eating and living that works for your life—and the support to keep going when life gets messy.
That's what I'm here to help you do.
My struggles with weight began in childhood, but everything changed at 50 when my back suddenly went out. My core was so weak I couldn’t sit for any length of time. Standing or lying down were my only options. I couldn’t work, clean my home, or even hold my 4-month-old grandson. I felt powerless, ashamed, and heartbroken over how far my health had declined.
That moment became my wake-up call. I had a choice: stay the same or make a change. I chose transformation — but true healing didn’t begin until I surrendered my struggle to Jesus.
Through this Christ-centered journey, I uncovered years of insulin resistance, metabolic challenges, emotional eating patterns, addictive food habits, and a deep love for sugary treats. I’ve released 70 pounds and, by God’s grace, I continue to live the habits that help me maintain my health and energy today.
Now, I help other women over 50 do the same — without extremes, shame, or starting over every Monday.
