I'm so happy I took the step to get some help to feel like myself again. I came in hoping for a mindset change so I could 'quit at quitting.' What I got was more than I could have ever hoped for. I now can have an off day, or even an off week, and can reset to get back on track. The old me would have derailed by months. I feel so much better and my mind is clearer. I have way more energy and am a better mom because of that.

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.

Julia came to us with a fat loss goal, but also wanted to focus on her overall health and improve her blood work results. Ryann has taken Julia through two structured fat loss phases, each followed by a reverse diet and maintenance period to preserve her results. Julia is down 25+ pounds and 28 inches total, 6.5 of those inches from her waist alone.

Brooke is everything I was hoping for in a coach! She covered all aspects from nutrition to performance to body image to freedom and flexibility. What I tried to do myself for the last 20+ years she was able to do for me in 8 months.

I went from 245lbs to maintaining at 178lbs right now. I truly can’t remember a time that I didn’t want to lose weight or change my appearance which is exhausting. I’ve found a new love for fitness and nutrition and instead of it feeling like a chore it’s honestly the best part of my day. Jess helped me change my way of thinking, the idea of being strong and healthy and not just small. She told me once that a dream body that is a nightmare to upkeep isn’t a dream body and I really agree with that so much.

I made impressive improvements this year, I’m not nearly as tired as I used to be, I’m sleeping better at night, my workouts have improved, body composition has improved and that’s because she has me eating as much as possible for the goal of the moment. Like when I was doing a cut I didn’t have to drop calories so much that I felt like crap.

I have learned so many easy and sustainable lifestyle changes over the last 5 months that even on my busiest days I can still reach my goals. Everything I have done with Brooke has made day to day life, travel, vacations and work easier, sustainable and less stressful!

I've become more comfortable with my body. I've lost about 10 lbs so far, my clothes are fitting again, and I've relearned what satiety feels like. I thought I'd have to quit eating pizza, burgers, BBQ, ice cream, pastries, either temporarily or permanently but I was so wrong!

I've gone from eating 1300 calories a day to over 2000 at maintenance. With Ryann's guidance, I've successfully completed two fat loss phases, transitioned my coaching program from lifestyle to performance, learned how to be compliant when things are not 100% perfect in my environment, not panic about how to eat while traveling, and competed in both running and CrossFit.

This journey has been great with Lauren to guide me! I’ve lost about 20 pounds and 1-2 pant sizes, but most importantly, I feel comfortable in my own skin again. I’m so excited to continue my journey with Black Iron to see what else I’m capable of!

I finally feel at a place of peace with food and the noise. I’ve always been a foodie and enjoyed myself, but it always followed with guilt or needing to “start over”. It’s freeing to find a balance between my goals, everyday life, and sustainability without the mental distress that usually follows.

From the start, my coach Ryann has been incredibly understanding, caring, and completely non-judgmental. This type of support has made a huge difference in my mental health and my ability to trust the process. I’ve always felt safe with her, never worried about “disappointing” her, and that has given me the freedom to be honest and open about my journey.

My goal was simply to feel more like me, and whatever direction Joyce guided me in, I was going to be onboard 100%. Working with her has been so amazing. In 12 weeks she was able to support me in losing about 13 lbs, and not once throughout my entire fat loss phase did I ever feel deprived, restricted, or stressed when it came to my food consumption.

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!

Working with Sabrina over the last few years has been nothing short of life changing. Mentally, emotionally and physically. I am in constant awe of how thoughtful her responses are; the way she can re-ground me when I'm feeling guilt around food and yet at other times push and motivate me when I'm firing on all cylinders. I got a nutrition coach, but gained a trusting role model who makes me feel comfortable week after week no matter the good, bad or ugly that is LIVING LIVE!

After having my first baby in 2024, I was determined to return to the competition platform stronger than ever. Before pregnancy, I was a highly competitive CrossFit and Olympic weightlifting athlete, having competed at both Masters Nationals and Senior Nationals in 2023. Postpartum, I knew I needed the right support to get back there. 

Working with Quiana over the past three years has been nothing short of life-changing for me. From the very beginning, she’s been incredibly encouraging, supportive and genuinely invested in my journey. Thanks to her guidance, I’ve not only reached my body composition goals, but I’ve also built strength I never thought possible.

I chose Quiana because we had babies at about the same time, and I knew she would get it. She has blown me away with her kindness, her humor, and she really just gets it. She’s supportive without letting me off the hook when maybe I should eat a vegetable or fruit as a treat. She really helped me through getting back to myself after having a baby, as well as supporting me through my first ever bulk then cut.

My experience with Black Iron Nutrition has been absolutely fantastic. I receive quick response to questions and clear directions. As a professional in the industry I truly feel Joyce is a good fit for anyone looking to improve their health.
