Katie's Story

Last winter, before I joined MRC, I was defeated. I was going to turn 30, I was going back to school to start a whole new profession, and I wasn’t happy with who I was becoming. I had hit my “bottom" and didn’t know how to come up for air. I thought that this was “it", this was how I was going to be for the rest of my life. This was a whole new low for me. It was my husband that noticed my defeat, and he made my appointment for my consultation. I signed up that evening, that appointment was almost ten months ago and what a difference those ten months have made.

Getting started I had to change all of my previous eating habits. It took a few months, but once it clicked there was no stopping me. Not to mention I had a major boost in energy and genuinely felt better. I just had to keep reminding myself that I didn’t want to go back to how I was before...instant motivation!

I feel like a whole new person!! I’m more confident than I’ve ever been and most importantly I’m so proud of myself for staying with the program and following it through. It’s as though I’ve brought alive a whole new part of me that I never knew existed.

The Palm Coast MRC staff: Kari, Jodie and Lindsey are amazing! They saw me 2-3 times a week. They’ve seen me laugh, cry and everything in between. I definitely needed their support, reassurance and accountability. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of ladies to have been by my side through one go the most difficult, emotional, and rewarding experiences of my life.
