I have been working with Jessika for over a year. I had been struggling with depression and anxiety and had gained quite a bit of weight in a short period of time. When I looked in the mirror, I no longer recognized the person looking back at me. I was disgusted and knew I had to make changes but I was unsuccessful in getting started and staying consistent. I had hired a trainer at my local gym who did not understand my specific challenges and I got nowhere. I had been following Jessika on social media, her posts spoke to me, not so much the ones about nutrition and exercise but the ones about mental health. Finally, I got up the courage to give her a call, she took the time to listen to what was happening with me, emotionally, physically, and nutritionally. Before tackling nutrition or fitness we started working on stress reduction and emotional health. I quickly understood that I needed to be patient with the process and that consistency was the key to making changes. Within a few months, I began to come out of my depression and began to gain the confidence that I had lost. With these emotional changes, physical changes began to occur also. I have learned so much from Jessika and have made lifestyle changes that have now become my new way of life. Jessika does not hand out a Get Skinny in Two Weeks Plan, this is about lifestyle changes so that we can live in the healthiest way possible as we grow older. Today, I feel great emotionally, I feel strong and confident and empowered to continue to live a healthy lifestyle. I now have the tools needed for those times when I get sidetracked from my plan. I know to “throw it all in the rear-view mirror” and to move ahead by taking small steps and getting back to my positive daily habits. Jessika’s support and guidance were just what I needed to make changes. If you are struggling, do not be afraid to send that text or make that call to Jessika. She does not judge but instead listens and guides you to being your better self.
