I lost almost 8lbs in 12 weeks and never once felt like I was starving or deprived. I have not been this lean since before kids. Kelly got me to focus on really foundational things like eating more fruits and vegetables, working on my sleep, working on my hydration. I think those helped lay a good groundwork for my fat loss rather than only focusing on macros.

Kate came to us as a strong athlete with her sights set on performance. Over 16 months with coach Kelly, she dialed in her gymnastics skills, built her engine, and slowly trended her body weight down 12 lbs. Her full story is one of consistency, trust in the process, and a quarterfinals performance that surprised even her.

Kelly helped me all throughout my college athletic career. She helped me plan, prepare, and tackle the challenges of being a D1 athlete, a student-athlete, and a young girl in her early 20s. She helped me find a new level of confidence in myself that I never would've found.

I had an awesome experience with Kelly and Black Iron Nutrition. I lost over 40 lbs during my time. I have nothing but great things to say!

My experience with Black Iron Nutrition and with Kelly has been amazing. I learned so much about my mind and body. As someone who struggles with consistency, setting myself up for success the night before by prepping my food for the next day was incredibly helpful. Kelly was there for me during difficult times in life and reminded me to give myself grace and not to be so hard on myself.

As someone who struggled with body image as long as I can remember, I no longer look in the mirror and have negative thoughts. It’s all positive. I’m taking more time/pride in my appearance again and enjoying wearing regular clothes outside of the gym and work.

This was my best performance ever for an Ironman 70.3! I took almost an hour off my total time for this PR and actually had FUN throughout the race.

The difference between the progress pictures is insane to me. While I went into this hoping for some body comp changes, I honestly wasn’t expecting this in only 3 months. I went into this wanting to prove to myself I could stick with something for 12 weeks, and I am so damn proud of myself honestly.

Previously, I had always felt depleted with low energy after cuts, and this time the process has been the smoothest it’s ever been, all while still being able to train really hard. I think the biggest growth for me in this whole process has been being able to shift my mindset that tracking my food does not have to always involve weight loss.
