The Problem
After being overweight her whole life and having tried almost every quick fix weight loss miracle on the market, Stephani enrolled in a Zumba class in early 2014. She attended class religiously five (5) days a week for at least an hour per day. Unfortunately, after months of this rigorous exercise regime, Stephani had only managed to lose a few pounds.
The Plan
Frustrated with her results and ready to quit, she consulted with Dr. Jay, who immediately told her to shift her focus from her exercise to her nutrition. Dr. Jay gave her some a new metabolism appropriate weight loss caloric target, and emphasized the futility in exercising to lose weight without also following a solid nutrition plan.
The Execution
Stephani wowed family members and friends as she literally transformed her body within 3 months even though she had reduced her exercise by 50%. She dropped 40lbs and 10 dress sizes in 12 short weeks…something she previously would have thought impossible. Even more impressive was her ability to do this despite having ZERO support from her family in regards to her weight loss goals!

As of 2018, she has now kept the weight off for 3+ years and acquired her personal training certification so she could help others that may be struggling with their weight.

Her Goal
After having two child, Carrie felt unattractive and overweight. She felt like the strategies she had used to lose weight before she had gotten pregnant were no longer effective. Feeling drained and disillusioned, Carrie’s friend told her about the success she had gotten with Dr. Jay Fitness and Carrie decided to test it out.

Carrie decided to dedicate 12 weeks of her life to improving the way she looked and to adopting a healthier lifestyle. At the end of 12 weeks Carrie wanted 1)to fit into her pre-pregnancy clothes 2) look like a “hot mom” and 3) be a healthy role model for her two young daughters.
The Plan
It was important to Carrie that she not workout at a gym since she is a stay at home mom. We created a a cardio and resistance program that Carrie could do at home. The only equipment Carrie used to achieve her results were a stability ball, 10 and 15 lbs weights, and a resistance band. Carrie worked out for 1 hour 4-5 days per week. She tracked her food daily and ate a high protein, moderate carbohydrate diet between 1500-1700 calories per day based on her Metabacheck reading.
The Execution
Committed to tracking her food and completing her workouts, Carrie made incredible changes over just 12 weeks. She took off 28lbs of scale weight and 6.5 inches off her stomach. At the end of her transformation, Carrie’s pre-pregnancy clothes were too big and she had to go out and a whole new wardrobe….a problem Carrie said she was happy to have. Carrie also reported feeling happier and sexier than ever before.

Carrie’s new lifestyle has served as inspiration for her husband and sister to also lose weight and get in shape.
