KIND WORDS FROM PAST CLIENTS:
I knew when I signed up for EAWC Foundations I was going to get accurate information from trained professionals. The program gave me the tools to begin adjusting my lifestyle to be more healthy and productive. The weekly calls helped me to regain motivation and confidence that I CAN achieve my nutrition and fitness goals without extreme deprivation of foods that I enjoy. Esther and her team are super amazing and supportive. My biggest win is knowing that how I was before isn’t how I’m going to be. It is possible - even as I’m getting older - to accomplish what I feel would be an ideal healthy lifestyle. It doesn’t feel as overwhelming. Having that confirmation that losing weight or being healthier doesn't’ have to be so hard. It was kind of like a breath of fresh air.
I'm so glad I did this! I've always quit after a few days, but this program gave me the confidence in what I was doing with tracking and macro counting to want to keep doing it because I was more sure it would work! I lost almost 10 pounds, several inches off my waist and hips especially, and more importantly, gained the determination to keep going with this new way of eating. I'm so happy with this change in my lifestyle and can't wait to keep progressing toward my goals! Thank you!
This Foundations course has been tremendous in helping me learn my “whys” and “hows”. I am digging deep into why eating healthfully is important to me, why I have done self-sabotaging behaviors in the past, how to overcome patterns of emotional eating and how to incorporate all types of foods without an all or nothing mentality.In addition to learning how to actually incorporate quality of life foods and still be moving toward my goals, I really feel like my goal setting is so much improved. Small weekly goals make so much sense for me. Becoming aware of triggers to mindless eating, being able to pause and to create strategies to avoid them - huge for me! My biggest win: trusting the process. It was tough mentally for me to decrease my HIIT classes and swap it out for strength and rest days but I feel stronger in my workings, am sleeping better and have shed some inches.While 6 weeks is obviously not enough time to undo a lifetime of unhealthy food relationships, I feel like I am on the path to success thanks to this course!
This experience has been eye opening! I had no idea how much I was really eating on a daily basis. I couldn't figure out why I wasn't losing weight but it completely makes sense now. This program has taught me so much. I still have a long way to go but I have made small changes that I think will eventually have a big pay off. The best part of the program is that I never feel judged and when I share how my week went, Esther and Meg make me really think about why it went that way.
Mostly I am just so much more confident that I am the one who is in charge of what I eat and why I eat it!! The support is unbelievable!!! The patience in answering the same questions and reassuring that change is coming, the knowledge in what fuels our bodies, the excitement for all wins, there is way too much to pick a "most valuable"! I cannot begin to portray my thanks!
I went down a full pant size. And I feel so much more stronger than before. I have a good handle on food tracking now and it's become more of a habit and less of a chore. Having the daily accountability with food tracking was really helpful to get into the swing of things. I really appreciated how encouraging and responsive you both were. I could tell you really wanted us to succeed and learn! Thank you!
In addition to losing pounds and inches, I feel a lot stronger and more energized. My clothes are loose, and I can cross my legs again:). The exercise piece has been invaluable, and I am losing weight eating 300-400 more calories on average per day. The first couple weeks were frustrating, but it pays to trust the process.
“Foundations was the support I needed for a woman over 50. I have been trying for 2 years to decrease my weight. Adjusting my calories and providing me with macro targets, my weight is finally going down. I am now able to have both a weight decrease and build muscle. I am excited to continue with my new lifestyle!”
I learned so much. I learned how much food prepping sets me up for the rest of the week and that way I’m not floundering and making bad decisions. I’m most proud of being All In on it. One or two bad decisions didn’t rerail the whole thing” - Lucinda T“Having a new plan laid out for me was perfect. I didn’t really change much of what I was eating, but HOW much. I learned through the tracking that beforehand, I probably had the tendency to undereat.I slow down during mealtime and focus on what I’m eating and not doing a hundred other things.You guys helped me look at why I was always exhausted when I woke up in the morning - adding in the sleep meditation at night has helped me sleep a lot better.As much as I came into this thinking I knew everything there was to know, I’ve learned a ton.
I lost 9 lbs. from the time I signed up until now. I was able to dig myself out of a terrible Covid-induced food/health rut. I needed to turn the page and this course helped me do it. I feel ready to commit to a healthier lifestyle and to do this for the rest of my life. The factual nutritional information, the encouragement, and the positive energy in general helped me to never get bored or give up.
I have learned so much about macros and how to plan in advance what I will be eating each day. I have not felt hungry. I am walking 8000 steps each day, and enjoying it! I am also doing the strength exercises 3 times a week. Esther and Meg are readily available to answer questions and giving individual informational advice throughout the program. The videos, recipes and the Nutritional bible make figuring out macros very easy. I would recommend this program to anyone wanting to loose weight, learn how to eat healthier, and feel great! Thank you!!
"I’m so glad I challenged myself to these 6 weeks! I learned so much about nutrition and how taking just 20-30 minutes the night before helps set me up for a successful day tomorrow. I’ve learned how to plan for special dinners or just how to fit in wine or a special desert without feeling guilty or derived. The support I received from Esther and Meg are exceptional and I highly recommend this group to anyone."
"I've lost 12 lbs but for me the changes are been more about my day to day. My biggest ah-ha is about MORE strength training, using heavier weights and actually taking REST days!! I feel like I'm focused on the right things for the first time ever. Foundations helped me better understand how to incorporate healthy eating and strength training into my routines and I feel like I can live my life while achieving my goals for weight loss. Tracking macros let me enjoy the same food that my family eats and understand how my portion size and what I eat affects how I feel. I have created great habits in just six week and feel very confident I can continue on this path!"
"Those 12 weeks came and went and I realized I was a different person than the one who had started on this journey. It's the best decision I ever made.Esther is so much more than a trainer at this point. She is a confidant, a shoulder to lean on, and a friend. She goes above and beyond to keep me on track and she gives the best advice when I'm in a panic over all of life's worries. I am so thankful for this woman and her unwavering support.”
“Esther gives me great wisdom, she provides honest feedback, helps me to evaluate my thought patterns, and helps me create a food gameplan for what I'm going into each week.It's like having a friend who also keeps you accountable so you'll be successful and meet your goals.If you're looking at expenses, this is the best money you'll spend because you're investing in yourself and your own health.There's nothing better than looking back and knowing you've accomplished what you set out to do, and Esther will help you do that!”
"I have been quite impressed with the education of the program & how it has helped me to refocus on my food intake and exercising. Esther has been the most committed, motivational coach that one could have. I am loving the way my clothes are fitting me now and I love the compliments that I'm getting.Thanks to Esther, I'm where I want to be."
"I started working with Esther because I needed help with my nutrition. She is an excellent listener, responds to all my messages, and she always offers excellent suggestions. She is also ALWAYS positive, even when I'm not! I eat a much more healthy diet, and I feel better about myself now. You will love working with Esther!”
“If you're worried about this just being another thing that won't work for you, you can stop there. I came into this hoping for noticeable physical changes (weight loss, toned, etc) but have gotten more than that. I believe inner change is what helps so much more and I am getting that.I'm definitely more encouraged with being with Esther than I have been with any program.”
