"I learned how to respect my body through clean eating and lifting"
"I began working with Stephaney Theobald/Natty Nutrition at the end of January 2013. I was 4 months postpartum after having our first baby. I was in fear of carrying the 'baby weight' for the rest of my life, so I wanted to make a change in my lifestyle habits. I came to Stephaney hoping to learn about clean eating and lifting weights. My goal was lose the baby weight and get into better shape than I was before I was pregnant, but I always had a distant goal of competing in a NPC Bikini Competition. As I started working through the meal plans Natty Nutrition provided me, I saw amazing results and realized that my dream of competing was attainable in the near future! Stephaney and I spent the first half of the year upping calories to grow muscle while burning excess fat at the same time.
When July came, it was time to start cutting for the bikini contest prep! Stephaney was able to ease me into less calories because she had done such a great job with my meal plan ratios throughout the year. Let me tell you, going through the contest prep diet was amazing and eye-opening! As long as you put in the hard work and discipline with eating, you can trust Stephaney to get you stage ready! I am in awe of how well she understands the science behind training and nutrition! She doesn’t just train women to be good enough to compete, she trains them so well that her clients WIN! In October 2013, I placed 2nd in my class in Novice Bikini after just 8 months of working with Natty Nutrition! Looking back on my experience, I am so grateful to have had a coach who cared so much about my success and who was so happy to celebrate with me throughout all of my 'little successes' along to way to the stage. All in all, I lost 26 lbs, and my body fat percentage went from 31% in January to less than 15% in October! I learned so much about my body and how to respect it through clean eating and lifting. I will never forget this experience and I will definitely be working with Stephaney again for future shows!
I owe my success to Natty Nutrition, and hiring Stephaney is the first thing I tell my friends when they ask me how I did it! Anyone who is truly seriously about changing their life for the better through nutrition, get a hold of Natty Nutrition right now! Why wait?!"
