5 Pregnancies in 7 years and I had my sweet Margot 21 months ago! I knew I had to do several things different this time to get back to a healthy weight.

⚡️Here is what I DID and DIDN’T do!

⚡️I threw away the timeline. I had a baby at 46, had been through long fertility struggles and wanted to give my body the time it needed to heal while also getting to a better place physically. This helped me take the stress and pressure off.

⚡️I didn’t set a goal weight. Guess what, if you are losing weight, you have never been this age, in this exact place in your career or even in this exact mindset. You have no idea where your body might land. Your body will tell you when it is time for maintenance!

⚡️No Calendar Counting. What’s that? You know, the times where you look at the calendar and see how many pounds you can lose per week in X amount of weeks? Why do we do this to ourselves! It’s a trap, don’t do it!!

⚡️This is what I did do!

⚡️Got the daily support I needed from our community CounterBalance. We need support outside of the home. Highly recommend finding a great community with people working towards the same goals.

⚡️I ate more food than I ever have in a weight loss phase and stayed in a MILD caloric deficit. It was easier to be consistent this way and gave me the energy to keep up with a little one while entering perimenopause! 😂😜

⚡️I didn’t go from 0-100. This is also a trap and causes burn out, diet fatigue and the roller coaster leaves us feeling like we are failing. I literally started on my walking pad after my C-Section for 5-10 minutes the first few weeks. It was all my brain could handle in the beginning.

⚡️I worked my CounterBalance Habit Stack and I only started with 2 habits. I then added to the stack as time went on. I got here with nutrition, exercise and consistency. No pills, shakes, shots or surgeries and I am not against anything that’s best for you!! I just get the ozempic question daily 😂.

⚡️I don’t do “meal plans”. I like variety 😂😜. I ate/eat food I like and find ways to add protein and fiber to my diet. We have to know how to cook, order and plan food realistically around multiple schedules, holidays and real life!

Our fertility journey has had many storms and big losses, but I couldn’t help but think our family wasn’t complete. I didn’t know what that meant so I sat with that feeling for years. Last year we decided to stop trying and move on….SURPRISE!! God laughed at our plans and rainbow baby Young will be here this FALL against ALL ODDS! Milo is so excited to finally be a big brother and Pate never lost Faith for one minute.
This baby is so loved by so many already! Every ultrasound and appointment leaves me in shock that this is really happening! 🌈🌈🌈

"…I am so grateful for Hannah and Olivia and everyone, honestly, in this group. Everyone has been so encouraging and supportive of the good days and even our struggles. It’s not every day you find a group of like minded people on the same journey to getting their life back and working to better themselves in one way or another. I’m so glad I had this opportunity to be in this group. I never felt alone or misunderstood because at any time I could hop online and see someone’s post or rewatch a live or listen to something motivational and walk away feeling whatever I needed in the moment. Whether it was encouragement or a kick in the butt. I am so thankful for your time and investment in all of us. It means the world to me and probably so many others!!" -Michelle, part of the CounterBalance community
