Shelly Ellison feels like a better mother and wife thanks to her training

This is my journey of turning 12 weeks into a lifestyle change.

My friend, Lainee, had finished the 12 week program and was ready to figure compete. The morning of her show I went to her motel room to do her hair and makeup and that’s when I first met Kristy. We started discussing the program and the Power Foods Lifestyle casually. I was so impressed by her knowledge, her work ethic, her energy, and her confidence about the body and the science behind it. I trusted her early on. I leaned down to Lainee and asked “is there any way that I will fail if I decide to give this program a shot?” She smiled confidently and said “if you do everything Kristy says, you will succeed!” It was right then that I though “well heck sign me up, I can do anything for 12 weeks right?!” I gave Kristy my email and heard from her the very next day.

Before I started the program I was a confident person. Sure, after having some kids your body doesn’t feel as right or as tight as it once did, but I was ok with it and who I was. I signed up and started the program without even thinking twice about it. I was ready to take the challenge and run with it. I was excited to see what together Kristy and I could accomplish.

Even though Kristy lives far away I never felt far from her. Between her emails and the weekly contact we would have I never felt like I was alone in this or left stranded. I wanted to perform at my best not only for me, but for Kristy as well. I wanted to make her proud. I never doubted her, but once the results started peeping through that’s when it started to get exciting. The constant strength and enthusiasm she projects through this program is so inspiring. As I continued on, things got easier (food prep and discipline), I got stronger, the trust grew stronger.

I purchased her book, read it cover to cover, and continued training. Before I knew it, with minimal hiccups the 12 weeks were over. I had made it, we had made it, and I then realized that signing up with Kristy was the best decision I have ever made for MYSELF. I have never felt more powerful and inner strength in my life. Being a wife and a mother of 3 young kids doesn’t leave a lot of time for me so going into this I knew would take some extra effort and strength on my part. This journey for me was so much more than a physical change, it was a mental change. I truly believe that the body composition will not change until the mind is right.

Overall I feel better, I look better, and I feel like a better mother and wife because of it. Kristy helped me achieve the best possible version of myself, inside and out. I challenge everyone to live this lifestyle. You will have NO REGRETS. This experience was so much more than a 12 week challenge. It has changed my life and now my family and close friends are being inspired as well.

I live by this quote from Kristy everyday: “Trust me. Trust yourself. Trust your body. Drink your water.” That’s really all it takes! Kristy, thank you for being you, for being real, and for standing by all you buddies so strong. You will be an inspiration to me forever.
