I turned 40. I gained 40 pounds just kind of out of nowhere. I was still working out. I was still trying to eat, you know, healthy or, you know, nothing was coming off and nothing was working. I almost feel like I'm wearing like a body suit, but that's not mine. Trust really what I was like, I need help. You're down how many pounds now? Somewhere I'm in the 17, 18, somewhere in there with Warrior Babe, feeling better, eating better, working out better.

I'm a better mom, a better wife, and I'm able to be there more emotionally and physically for them, which is invaluable, right?

It's very invaluable.

Hey, everyone, what's going on?

Welcome back to another Warrior Babe interview.

And today I'm really excited because I have Krista here with me.

And despite what she did prior to finding Warrior Baby, she's working out, she was trying to get healthy.

She was exhausted, over over training stuck in the

mindset the scale was the only thing that mattered she gained 40 pounds but she knew deep down that

she needed a change she needed the right direction and she found us and today what we're going to

dive into is how she's now down 17 pounds has more energy energy than ever, and is completely rewired her

relationship with fitness and food. And I'm really excited to dive into her story. So, Krista,

welcome. Hello. Thank you. Yeah. So I'm really excited to get into you sharing with us.

What was your situation with health and fitness before you found Warrior Babe? So with health and

fitness, after I had my second child, I was like, okay, I need to really just start being active because, you know, I just need to have some more energy. I've got, you know, one kid and then a toddler, you know, baby. And then I was like, I need to start getting back into fitness. And so that's when I started just really pushing myself to start working out regularly. And it, you know,

it took a few months to kind of really get into a good habit of it. I started, you know, doing,

like, those at home, you know, workouts and just really started to do that. And then I guess that's been,

it's been 10 years now that I've just really been kind of working out and doing my thing. And since

then I also had another child. So that's kind of where I was really kind of more like restricting calories, more like 1,200 calories to try to like really cut weight. And, you know, because I had no idea. Growing up, I didn't really have a good example of like how to eat well. It was just kind of eat whatever. But of course, it was a situation where I could eat whatever I want and I didn't gain any weight.

Yeah.

Which made it hard as an adult to then know how to fuel my body properly.

You were saying that you're working out and you weren't eating horribly.
