From insecure, body hating, food obsessed, energy lacking, & overweight again, to fit, healthy, happ I was READY to make a change. I feel so PROUD of myself!
In the past, I was a yo-yo dieter and yo-yo exerciser but then seven years ago, I began a weight loss and exercise journey losing lots of weight and feeling great. I exceeded my goals, but struggled to maintain that body and lifestyle I desired…and then I got pregnant. I was so happy to be pregnant, but excuses took over and my health and fitness spiraled downhill. After Savannah was born, I was so ashamed of how much weight I had gained and that I could not fit in my clothes many months later. I tried different ways to get back on track, like Weight Watchers, protein shakes, counting calories, and hours at the gym, but all that was so hard when you have a family, and with two kiddos…even harder! After this last move with a newborn and a two-year-old, I was exhausted, irritable, full of excuses and ashamed of how I let myself get back the overweight person that lacks confidence. I had been following my friend Brooke’s health and fitness journey because I knew we shared a lot of the same issues with food, family, and fitness, but I was skeptical at first because I did not want to try another gimmick. She found a lot of success with a 30-minute at-home workout program and clean eating. I was also skeptical because I wondered what “diet” I would have to again starve myself with, and if 30 minutes a day would be enough of a workout for me…but I FINALLY felt READY, so I gave it a shot! I ordered and followed my 30-minute a day workouts program with the clean eating nutrition plan. Little did I know, that I would eat more food than I ever imagined, I would have more energy and more confidence than ever! Heck, I’m putting myself out there right now…despite how scary this is for me! Before I knew it, the pounds and inches began to shed, and I have this incredible before and after picture staring at me. I knew that to get and maintain these results, I needed to stop making excuses, stop yo-yo dieting and exercising, and find something that I can make my lifestyle for my entire family so my girls do not go through these same challenges. I want forever to replace words like “diet” and “exercise” with the words “FITNESS” and “NUTRITION.” I know so many people struggle with some of these exact same things that I struggled with, and I believe in what I can offer, so that is why I became an online health and fitness coach! What I offer is NOT a “quick fix.” It’s a lifestyle change, but it gets you results as quickly as possible while making it STICK! I want to help others and inspire them to not only “look” good, but FEEL good too! I want others to feel confident and proud of themselves! So, to hold myself accountable and help inspire others, I cohost regular Challenge/Accountability groups for those who are READY, like I was, to get rid of the excuses and quick fixes and take back control over your life! I would love to help you reach your goals and feel confident in yourself again…or even for the first time!

Happy 4th of July from the Nagys! 🎆 ❤️🤍💙 🇺🇸

The last 2 yrs have really done a number on my mental health which took a huge toll on my physical health too...
We’ve all been dealing with that “Pand-emie” 😷 (I don’t even want to talk about). At 1st I was doing really well with my health & wellness, & then I lost my amazing Mom❤️🩹, & then my health began declining due to Breast Implant Illness (which I’m improving since getting them out 6 mos. ago).
Except during my surgical, I was working out consistently, BUT that WASN’T ENOUGH. My nutrition was very far off from what it had been for the last 6 years.
In the midst of it all, I began treating myself to more & more to things that I told myself were acceptable “treats”- even though my body was telling me otherwise. I was suffering from full body inflammation, joint pain, extreme food sensitivities including extreme abdominal distention, gas, bloating, constipation, abdominal pain, & I was rapidly gaining weight over the last 6 mos.- no matter what I ate.
I partner with a company that focuses on health but all my normal ways weren’t helping me UNTIL… I began our NEW nutrition & fitness program that focus on 4 weeks of resetting our Gut Biome.
For those of us suffering with lots of tummy issues & food sensitivities, backing off of foods that trigger us (Mine are gluten, maybe eggs, alcohol, & highly processed sugar) for the 4 weeks can make a HUGE difference, so I was more than excited to give this program my best.
What I ❤️ about this program is that I felt SO SATISFIED & FULL because I got to eat so MUCH MORE FOOD & I had so much fun experimenting with new, HEALTHY, DELICIOUS recipes that the family enjoyed just as much as I did. I ❤️ that this gave me the structure to follow, & I love that a group of us are doing it together!
This program SPEAKS to my SOUL because it’s exactly what MY BODY LOVES (my friends are saying this too). I feel less inflamed, more energetic, sleeping great, NO CRAVINGS AT ALL (never even missed gluten, alcohol, or unnatural sugar), less bloated, less puffy & gassy, more regular, & I lost 7.3 lbs. & 5.5 in just 4 weeks!! 🤯
Anybody can do this…& I am here to help. Reach out for my help! ☺️💕

These last 6 months have been a whirlwind.
I went to my 6 month post breast explant surgery appt. today. Feeling so much better without those TOXIC IMPLANTS.
NO MORE daily back pain, hip pain, or nerve pain in my legs! 🙌🏻
No more hair breaking off like it was! 🙌🏻
Way more days with energy rather than feeling so exhausted that I could hardly function.🥳
Daily brain fog, word retrieval, & memory problems are almost gone too!!! Hallelujah! 🙏🏼
I have full range of motion in my shoulder, upper back & neck & can finally do push-ups correctly! I’m hoping one day I can do an unassisted pull-up ( physically impossible with my implants because they cut the muscle to fit them- something I didn’t know).
Unfortunately, the implants did a lot of harm to my GI system (common), but food sensitivities still plague me with weight gain, constant bloating, abdominal distention, fluid retention, inflammation, gas & abdominal pain. I’m currently on day 2 of healing my gut with a 4 week Gut Program that is helping me already! 🙏🏼
All my other Breast Implant Illness symptoms are decreasing too! It takes about 1 month to detox per year of having the implants in, & I had mine for 10 years, so a few months left of these “waves” of detox symptoms coming & going! 🙏🏼
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against plastic surgery, but I had no idea how toxic ALL implants are! I was told that mine were new & safe, but there is now SO MUCH EVIDENCE that they can cause over 85 signs, symptoms, & medical problems if left in. The silicone (found even on the outer shell of saline too) can leach out into the blood stream, & our bodies try to fight it, causing the BII (Breast Implant Illness) symptoms, so I’m SO HAPPY to be RID OF THEM!
I had so many symptoms that I thought were my new norm since getting older & having kids, but I’m grateful for the FB groups that have helped me see that IT’S NOT NORMAL! Thankfully, implants now are required to carry a BLACK LABEL WARNING ⚠️ ⛔️ & doctors are also required to give information regarding the possible dangerous side effects.
I’m happy to share more info or talk about it with you, so if you have ?s, please reach out.

It’s just us girls this week for their spring break, and we’re making the best of it with staycation fun at home.
So far, we’ve enjoyed fun with Aunt Missy for a few days, had multiple play dates, an at home pedicure spa, manicures, their make up and hair done by mama, played go fish, Candyland, watched movies with lots of snuggles, Taco Tuesday dinner out, a little shopping, and there’s still a few more days left with warm weather coming our way. 🍀🌈
We excited to get out on our bikes and enjoy the sunshine tomorrow. ☀️
Anyone else on Spring Break? If so, did you go anywhere or stay at home?

I know I have not been as active with my posts lately. I’m on a search for my voice again. I know I will find it and me again, but until then, know that I post a lot in my “stories”…so you can follow along there. 💕
We’ve had a lot going on lately and it’s all been really good! We are under construction in our basement as we are able to finish our workout space. 🙏🏼🙌🏻
I’m so excited to say that we officially have walls in the space! It’s going to be beautiful. Until then, we’re working out in our finished area of the basement. I’m so grateful for everything in my life right now.
Seth and I have been doing a program together again… for the first time in about a year! It’s been so great to have him by my side both in our workouts and in life in general too. He puts up with all of my stuff… 😆… But I know he feels grateful that I put up with his too. We are two peas in a pod and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Our girls are amazing as well. They put up with so much craziness in world right now, me, etc.… & I am so grateful for them and their patience as well.
I know that there is no such thing as a perfect parent, I’m far from that. I am just striving to be one ounce of the amazing mother my mom was to me. ❤️🩹🙏🏼
I guess you could say that I am under construction as well. I’m a work in progress. I think we all are, but I think sometimes we need more work than other times. Right now is one of those times for me. I’m not saying this for attention, just to let you know that if you feel this way right now… You’re not alone.
I hope you all had an amazing Valentine’s Day. I’m not big on Valentine’s Day when it comes to my romantic relationship (Seth feels the same)… although I did get him some awesome, local IPAs, & ordered some sushi together… but I like to make Valentine’s Day special for the kids.
Nothing too extravagant… Just a bouquet of flowers, a heart shaped balloon, and heart shaped ranch to dip there chicken tenders and french fries in. It was a pretty great day. I am truly blessed. ❤️

Happy 42nd birthday to my favorite husband ever!
This is the 3rd year (out of 11 yrs together) that I’ve made him a red velvet cake for his birthday 🎂, but I think that this year turned out the best!
I don’t know why… But the texture, flavor, a& color turned out absolutely perfect! I think it helped that I had the help from the sweetest little girls assistants in the world! 💕 Watching our girls be excited to help out making daddy‘s cake was the best part of this entire birthday!
We’re at a point in life where we buy things that we want whenever we want… so I know he didn’t want or need anything specific so we made the cake, & I just bought him his favorite little treats, gave home more of his fave deodorant, body spray, beard & shave items, beer, Etc… & I think he really enjoyed it.
We went out to dinner to one of our favorite restaurants as a family of 4, & we all really enjoyed our food and company. It was nothing fancy… But we all had a great time… I think that’s all that matters.
It’s not about the big things at the stage in the game… It’s all about the little things. I really hope he had a great birthday day! Birthdays are really special to me. I love making it special for others. Are you the same way?

In case y’all missed it… We’ve been off the grid since late Monday morning due to this unexpected Snowmageddon.
On Monday, I did Day 1 of our new workout program, The snow and winter mix came down quickly, we went sledding and came home to no power… & cell service was extremely spotty to even use it on our phones… but we are back!
Power came on after about 40 hours of being off… & it felt so good to move my body this way rather than shoveling. 😂
We got 12 inches of snow in about 4 hours on Monday. It was crazy town! Virginia has not prepared for this kind of mess. You may have caught it on the news… but the interstate right by our house was a parking lot for about 27 hours. Some people weren’t able to move that entire time. People without food, water, bathroom, heat, gas in their vehicles… Stuck for hours. We definitely learned some things about being grateful.
I was grateful that even though we were without power, we still had a gas stove top to cook on, gas in our vehicles so we could charge devices and power blocks, flashlights, battery operated lanterns, candles, warm clothes, blankets, running water, a roof over our head, great neighbors, and each other.
Many of our city streets are still not plowed or not plowed well and we still have cold temperatures and more snow headed our way Thursday evening. this Snowmageddon is crazy!
There are still many people in our city and surrounding area that are still without power. Please keep them all in your prayers. Our neighborhood has really joined together an offered up our resources, homes, hospitality, and more. How wonderful is that?
Things I missed the most… A cozy warm house, cell service, Internet, TV, and these workouts.… But I’m grateful to have them now. Happy new year to you all! I’d love to hear some things that you’re really grateful for this year so far! Please drop them below. 🙏🏼
