“There are very few things more powerful than knowledge, particularly when that knowledge is about yourself. I truly feel like I’m finally fueling my body in a way to help me heal and feel GOOD (like coconut milk black raspberry ice cream 🍦) for every part of every day. Never have I believed more that what you put into your body has a direct affect on how you feel and I can’t wait to continue to see how this helps me take control of my autoimmune issues. Thank you Coach Natalie for being such a ray of sunshine and positive addition to my life and to The Habyt for creating such an empowering community of women! Reach out to these beautiful ladies, they have so much knowledge and love to share”

“I’ve loved this journey. I’ve learned more about myself, the good and the bad habits, but most importantly I think learning how to listen to my body has been key. I no longer feel guilty for shortening my run or just walking the dog if I am sore or tired that day. And it’s amazing how I can still eat my numbers on rest days without feeling guilty or bloated. I’ve struggled for years with GI issues and severe bloating, and although it’s still a work in progress, I feel such a sense of peace with my body right now. I’ve tried every diet/detox/test under the sun to solve my stomach issues and it never occurred to me that simply EATING could be the answer... I can’t wait to continue to grow this friendship with my body & give it the love it deserves!!”

“I could talk for hours about what the Habyt experience meant to me. I was really interested in the idea of flexible dieting but to be honest, I was skeptical.  I thought I was already flexible dieting and it wasn’t working so how would this be different? Turns out my diet was flexible in that I was very flexible to switch out something healthy for something maybe not so healthy very quickly. After the first week, I felt like I was glowing all the time! I had so much energy and was powering through the program.  Christina's positive energy and literally endless encouragement and pride was contagious and it gave me no doubt that I could achieve anything I wanted from the program.  Though I did look BOMB when I finished the program, it really was more about what I gained - a true sense of accomplishment for myself and just a new outlook on how I could go about my life.”

Habyt: Tell us a little about yourself and your background as it relates to what you’ve tried in the past for “diets”?

Victoria: I’ve tried a little bit of everything & stuck with nothing. It’s funny, I never thought of myself as a “dieter” but looking back on it, I was constantly trying something to lose weight. I’ve tried counting calories, cutting carbs, six small meals a day. I tried to be vegetarian/pescatarian for a while. I was always trying to limit myself, thinking that would be the answer. The thing I’ve learned about diets/lifestyles that promote limitations is that they aren’t sustainable and that’s why I was never able to stick with them that long.

Habyt: What lead you to book the call with Habyt?

Victoria: I was tired of feeling the way I had been for so long. I was uncomfortable in my own skin and in my clothes. I was sick of being self conscious and not looking like myself or feeling my best. I also was just physically tired - i literally had no energy most days. I had been following the Habyt for a while on Instagram and was intrigued & wanted to learn more about macros. I also had a friend (hi Coach Paige!) who was doing the program and I found myself asking her questions about it for months. It took me a while to finally schedule the call because ya know...self doubt...but I was glad I did.

Habyt: How did you feel when you booked the program?

Victoria: I was excited and a little nervous. Excited because I knew this worked for my friend and it left me feeling optimistic. I was also glad to hear that counting macros is not about cutting foods out and that nothing was “off limits” - it made me feel like this might actually be more sustainable. I was nervous because I haven’t followed through with other “programs” that I had tried before and I just honestly didn’t want to fail.

Habyt: What was the biggest hurdle for you when you first started?

Victoria: I think I was overcomplicating my meal planning at first. I’ve always had a mentality that in order to lose weight and be healthy I needed to spend a lot of time researching healthy recipes & spend my entire Sunday meal prepping. After recognizing that this was starting to get overwhelming & talking to Coach Nat about it, I started being better about building meals by their macros and keeping things simple with whole, real foods. I really enjoy cooking, so I feel like I now have a good balance between making the recipes I love and also being able to build simple, macro based meals when I have less time.

Habyt: What was the biggest learning moment(s) for you post your 90 day program?

Victoria: When I was traveling and I was still able to prioritize tracking macros and hitting my goals every day. Traveling is something I’m really passionate about and that I do often, and it’s not always easy to prioritize eating well on a trip. I was gone for a week and moving around a lot / not staying at the same hotel where I could keep groceries & cook some meals. That being said, I was able to hit my macros because I kept snacks with me, I made good choices for my meals and I didn’t limit myself either. Also I drank a TON of water. I felt good when I got back and I didn’t feel derailed or that I had to restart.

I also recently had a Holiday Party that had I had to dress up for. Last year, these were the kinds of events that I would dread having to pick out something to wear & go to. For me, these were moments where we panic last minute shop, try on a million outfits at home before in front of the mirror, and end up settling for something I didn’t feel great in but felt like it was the best option I had. This year, I had an outfit in mind, I put it on and I felt confident and didn’t think twice about it. This was a big moment for me. I still have goals that I’m working towards but this showed me that okay to still have goals and not be exactly where I want to be, but to still be proud of the progress I’ve made and celebrate it.

Not exactly a “moment” but just an overall learning - I’ve learned so much - what makes me feel good, that balance and consistency are SO important, and I feel empowered by knowing how much I should be eating instead of focusing on what I shouldn’t be eating.

Habyt: Why do you feel like Habyt is a program that sets you up for a lifetime of success?

Victoria: It’s taught me how to create balance and make mindful choices in order to feel my best. It’s helped me to focus on building my day around what I can and want to eat without feeling guilty or deprived.

Habyt: What would you tell someone that’s thinking about signing up? What were you skeptical about in the beginning?

Victoria:

Do it! You won’t regret it. I was unsure and had a lot of self-doubt going into it, as someone who had trouble finding results and following through with other programs in the past. I’ve found a sustainable lifestyle through the Habyt and genuinely feel capable of working towards my goals now.
