How do we decide to take control when the entire world seems to be losing control? What is it that makes us finally say enough is enough and I am going to do everything I can to control what I can? Today, Shelly dives into how she overcame the weight, the weight of knowing that her health was in danger, that it was endangering her future, and was being made worse by the extra weight that she had on her body.

Sarah is literally one of the most amazing people in the world! She and I are cut from the same cloth, we were born to help others! Sarah has a long history in the world of healthcare, and both lost a bit of ourselves in the process of caring for others to the level that we do. Beyond that, today we are able to dive into how having a strong support system allows you to recharge, to face down the challenges of donuts in the breakroom, and how every day can offer a reason to not stick to your plan. You can do this, we are here to help, and I hope that you find something in today's episode that resonates with you!

Understanding someone's expertise helps you assemble the right team to reach your goals! At 13 years old she was diagnosed with celiac disease. She was told that she had to cut out a whole food group from her diet, and like most teenagers, she pushed back on such a bold demand. However, as she continued to eat what she liked, especially pasta, she grew even sicker. All she wanted was to not be in pain from eating...  This is the start of a journey that gave birth to a purpose for Stephanie Castro, a purpose that we are so lucky to have here at MedFit. She spent over 1200 hours or UNPAID time working in a supervised, clinical setting to become a dietician. She works with the science of your specific body to help get you to the place you want to be. Nothing is one size fits all. 

A life-changing decision! No matter how many times it hasn't worked out, there is always a different approach. Dr. Angela Tran and the MedFit Team are different than any other program out there. Working with the specific science of your body, they are able to design a program of diet and exercise tailored specifically to you, and it doesn't stop there. The support and friendly accountability that they offer, for as long as you need it, is unmatched in the industry. Thank you so much to Cindy for sharing her story!
