"When I compare my progress photos I am in shock.

 At the same time it truly represents my journey so far with IFA not only with my physique, but more importantly in my mindset.

The crazy thing is that I am almost the same weight in both of these photos. Wrapping my mind around that has been a huge part of who I have become.

The number on the scale no longer tortures me. I love how far my physique has come and I love that I know with all of my heart that I can get to my dream physique.

Tova and the IFA team have led me to a place where I KNOW I am consistent, I KNOW I can achieve my big dream, I KNOW I deserve the achivements and I KNOW I am brave.

What you see here is the huge leaps I have made towards my physique goal, but what I see here is the woman I have become that I never imagined I had in me.”

“I have psoriatic athritis and that was my ticket not to move. ‘I’ll sit on the beach and watch you play’ was something my kids constantly heard me say when I took them to the park.

 “I’m so tired” or “my body aches” were my words my husband was getting used to me saying. I have a 6 year old son with developmental and physical delays and if I didn’t move he wasn’t really moving either.

I knew at some point he was going too big and too heavy for me to carry him. It got to a point where I felt I was cheating my body and my family and something had to change.

I was looking to get more energized, more fit, have more stamina to be able to keep up with my kids while challenging myself and them at the same time and I knew I couldn’t do it alone.

I can’t remember how I came upon IFA but to say it’s a blessing is an understatement. I started with the 21 Day Reset and the seeds were planted. I then joined IGNITE and the fundamentals of fitness and nutrition were rooted down. 6 months later I have committed to myself to grow and blossom in all aspects of my nutrition, fitness and overall health.

For me this is just the beginning to how much I kow I will grow. I can’t thank you Tova, the IFA team and my family and my peers who are my biggest cheerleaders, supporters and friends. I don’t know where I would be without you all.”

“I feel stronger. i have been consistent. I closed my DR finally! I can see physical changes in my body and weight has been coming off. I feel confident. Like not just think it, truly feel confident and capable. I have so much more trust in my self. I feel on the edge of something amazing.

The clothing on the L doesn’t fit me anynore.

As I’m working out, my bike shorts keep rolling down. Haven’t been this size since before my littlest!

I’m beyond grateful and feeling so abundant in health, confidence, and most importantly (for me anyway) consistency.

I never doubt my ability to be consistent anymore. The other day I had accidentally planned my workout over an existing appointment. Old me would have been so mad and dejected and HARD on herself possibly have not completed a workout on that day.

This me just went, ooops, and rolled on knowing with full confidence that the consistency was there and I would adjust the evening accordingly (and I did so.)

And to think that “old me” is only a few months past me is mindblowing!”
