I am also the mother of a 3-year-old daughter, Eliza, and an 18-year-old daughter, Ella. I have 3 step-sons (Austin (24), Alec (22), and Adam (16)), a husband (Brian), a yellow lab named Ace and a cat named Grogu. And my life has been anything but simple. I was pregnant with my daughter my first semester of medical school, spent my daughter’s first birthday on an island just destroyed by a hurricane, and struggled through life as a divorced, single-mom, medical resident. Through it all, I kept gaining weight.

I met my husband, moved to the country, and we had a baby the week our youngest turned 13. I lost the weight, became a coach, and learned how to help all those Mamas like me do the same. I really do love my life, my family, and helping other Moms like me lose the weight for good.
