Tell us about your journey to better health…
I’ve struggled with my weight for what feels like my entire life. In high school, I developed an eating disorder; Then in college, I began to struggle with drugs and alcohol which further complicated my relationship with food. I was able to get sober in 2017, but then I put on even more weight. I kept trying to lose the weight while also abstaining from drugs and alcohol but I couldn’t.
What motivated you to make a change?
In 2018, I began feeling pain in my knees and having trouble climbing the stairs. I was only 23 at the time, and I felt that was unacceptable. After a year sober I knew it was important to take my physical health back! I was trying to incorporate clean eating and exercise, but it wasn’t enough. Around that time, I heard about 310 Nutrition from a friend at work and decided to give it a try.
Tell us about your success!
When I started my journey to a healthier me, I was 258 lbs. – and since then I’ve been able to lose 73 lbs. by eating a clean and healthy diet that includes 310 Shakes and living a healthy lifestyle. My current weight is 185 lbs., and I only have 35 lbs. left to go to reach my goal weight of 150 lbs.
But, I have to say that some of my biggest achievements have been beyond the scale. I feel confident and able to try new things with this “new me”. I’ve also really enjoyed seeing the change in the way clothes fit me, going from a size 18 down to a size 12/10.
What do you love BEST about 310 Shakes?
Some of the things I love best about the shakes are that they’re extremely affordable and portable. I can pre-make shakes and it does not restrict me from having foods I enjoy, like a cheeseburger here and there. And they also taste delicious!
Tell us about your healthy lifestyle routine…
Currently, my healthy lifestyle routine involves drinking at least one shake per day. I also really like the 310 Metaboost and daily vitamins! I work in healthcare, so on days when I’m away from home, I drink a lot of water, and make a shake with 12 oz. of unsweetened almond milk and a scoop of 310 Shake for lunch. It’s super easy to just shake up in my 310 Shaker Cup, and it gives me all the nutrients I need for a low number of calories.
If I’m at home when I make my shake, I’ll jazz it up a bit and add different fruits and vegetables. I put all the ingredients in a blender to make a yummy smoothie. Either way (in the shaker cup or mixed in the blender), the shakes taste really good!
I also try to exercise every day, and plan my workouts based on my schedule. My job is very physical and I’m also in graduate school, so I don’t make it to the gym every day, but I have an elliptical at home. When I do go to the gym, I do a mix of cardio and weight lifting. When I’m home, I do at least 30 minutes on the elliptical.
Do you have a MUST-TRY shake recipe you’d like to share?
One of my favorite shake recipes includes 310 Toasted Coconut with unsweetened chocolate almond milk, a tablespoon of peanut butter, 3/4 teaspoon sugar-free chocolate pudding mix, and a banana.
What does the 310 Community mean to you?
I love the 310 Community! It is such a great resource where I can find great support, recipes, and advice on my diet and fitness routines. I always feel good when I’m in the Community engaging with others on their own weight loss paths.
Do you have advice for anyone just starting their journey?
For me, it was not always easy, and I’m not perfect every day. My journey continues and has been slow and steady, but incredibly worth it. The goal is to become healthier and happier one step at a time, and I’ve already been doing that and it feels great. So can you… Don’t ever give up!
