“As I turned 50, I found myself in a very dark space. I was a new empty nester, in the depths of my fight against perimenopause, starting a brand-new career, and had put on a significant amount of weight. I was riddled with negative self-talk, constantly self-sabotaging, and couldn't even look at myself in the mirror. I decided it was time to stop accepting “this is just how it is now” and start fighting for the strongest, healthiest version of myself. That decision led me to RevStrong and it changed everything.
What began as a simple commitment to show up turned into a complete transformation of my body and mindset. Through consistent training, accountability, and a supportive community that truly believes in progress over perfection, I lost 70 pounds and gained something even more valuable - confidence, energy, and self-love. RevStrong didn’t just help me lose weight, it helped me rebuild habits, discipline, and belief in myself at a stage of life when many people think it’s too late. This journey has shown me that age is not a limitation; it’s an advantage. In my 50's, I train smarter, listen to my body, and appreciate every win, big or small.”
