Achieve Your Goals without the overwhelm

I've had a huge mindset shift this week that just went. I stuck to my calories. Did all my sessions/steps worked my ass off and can see results now. Sleep schedule is amazing again I get home and I'm beyond exhausted so early nights which gives me an early wake up to get the day done. Meal prep is on track I'm even doing weekends. My weights dropped. My clothes are getting looser and I'm feeling more confident. Just want to reach out and say thank you for being gentle with me when I was really struggling to ease back into the things but I think we've really got to my old strong mindset and it's improving all aspects in my life!

I just listened to your first check in video. Firstly, I want to say thank you, as you know I have struggled with food and eating disorders for a good part of my teenage/ adult life, so to hear your feedback and guidance around my nutrition means more to me than you know. I actually teared up hearing your knowledge our nutrition and how our body works and what we need for different things, It means a lot to me because I feel like I’m in the right place to become a better and healthier version of myself and that excites me.

A highlight for me was when I went to buy jeans and the last ones I brought where a size 44 and now I’m a size 38. Another highlight would be when I look back on my workouts over a 2-3 week period and have been able to double my reps or that really heavy weight that I could only do 3 reps is now getting closer to a full set.

Feeling good in my routine is the biggest win I'm not having to mentally push myself as much anymore it's just the fact of going then feeling great after

Mid week I was getting upset as I didn't know how I was going to get my 4 sessions in with things happening outside of my control. But I MADE it happen and I felt so much better that I got them in the best I could.

I think it's the growth in confidence around knowing what my body needs. nutrition wise and not panicking if one day I was too low or one day my fats were over etc as I know over the entirety of the week, I'm closer than I think in that moment.

The programs make the gym fun so working out doesn't feel like a chore - it is motivating and enjoyable

I love the support throughout the journey but also the tough love or where I can improve and setting goals to push myself in training and eating has been super helpful!

Girl! I got up and walked at 6.30am today and knocked out 6.5km - I am not a morning person! Hahaha will see how much I can manage around kids stuff and work and still prioritizing sleep too. Yeah it's been a big shift with eating through anxiety, knowing my body needs the protein the most, I try do that regardless and definitely am proud of that

Win - cementing that a weekend away doesn't undo everything and learning what I have learnt with nutrition I was able to enjoy my time away.

You're AMAZING girlfriend. Thank you for the check in, that was filled with soooo much education and knowledge! I'll write up a meal plan today and send it over to you for sure. I always tend to feel a little bit lost when it comes to food and I really appreciate you breaking it down for me

10 if I'm honest and this is the first time I've even been able to say this. I've been so focused on achieving my physical goal and working on my mentality that overall it's been an positive month. As we know I don't completely track on weekends, but I've been mindful and demure with what I've been eating.

I completed 8 pull ups with correct tempo without the resistance band!!! Like what!!

Feeling good in my clothes. It’s been a while.

Thank you for being there and encouraging me to move forward, it really means so much!

I truly appreciate your support and advice, it always gives me the push I need! I did actually get up this morning and went for a slow 4.5km walk, which helped a tonne and made my head feel so much clearer.

P.s a girlfriend who I sometimes do a gym session with actually said to me as I walked in the gym “holy muscles girl!” Ha! Funny what others notice that you don’t x

100% seeing my strength improving so much & how much I’ve increased weight in my sets since starting with you!

Feel good in my body and be fit and healthy fo my kids.

I just love having a plan. Knowing exactly what I need to do but having someone else to do al the thinking for me.

I feel like I’m constantly making progress. Just having someone holding me accountable to push myself I feel like I’m seeing the progress in my physique and my strength.

Feel good in my body and be fit and healthy for my kids.

Signing up was definitely one of the better things I've done for myself this year and even though I had a rough idea of what I was doing before I feel much more focused and in control and I can see and feel the difference having that extra help has made.

I feel way more in tune with my body and proud of how far I've come. Also love having muscles that can actually lift me up and support me

GracePT helped me achieve my goals and feel the most confident I ever have. Her approach to giving you as much support as need is incredible, she answered all my questions listed to all my concerns and always works around my injuries and time constraints. I would have never reached my goals if it wasn't for the encouragement and education from gracePT she is truly amazing

I’ve learnt proper techniques, how to hit your macros (didn’t know what that meant before) how to keep yourself accountable and actually keep on track

Since training under Rach, not only have I gained knowledge about workouts, form and nutrition, I've learnt to love my body and everything it's capable of. Rach always knows when I need gentle reminders or a big kick in the butt. Such an amazing coach and friend

Honestly, looking back at those compared to now, holy fuck. I didn't think that I had done much at all. But looking back and actually comparing (yes they are very very old photos) but from that to this is fucking insane and I'm so proud of myself. I know you're not my coach at the moment, but everything I'm doing is from memory of what you had in my programs

I Just want to say that I am really grateful for all of your guidance over the time we have been with you, I love refining my plan from your recommendations and seeing awesome results, it feels liberating to know I'm learning along the way, you minimise the stress and anxiety around eating and give me the calm I need to achieve results and still enjoy. This is no quick fix which I absolutely love because as you know I have struggled for years with food and I genuinely feel like I'm changing and evolving as a person and I will be able to use these tools for the rest of my life so thank you.
