Kick Ash Coaching - Beyond the Scale

February 1st, 2026. I went to bed genuinely scared I wasn’t going to wake up.
I couldn’t walk properly. I couldn’t take care of basic things. My vision was changing. My blood pressure was 167 over 121. My A1C was 7.1.
I still wasn’t ready to change.
February 2nd — something shifted. Not motivation. Not inspiration. Just a quiet, terrifying clarity: I am killing myself, and I have to stop.
The first three weeks were brutal. Daily battles. Hourly sometimes. Every craving, every old habit, every voice saying this won’t work either, but I kept going. Not because I felt ready, because I was more scared of staying the same than of changing.
Im about to go for my four month check up but after the first three months my A1C 5.4. Blood pressure normal. 90 pounds gone. Fully mobile. Living my life again.
I’m not telling you this so you think I’m remarkable. I’m telling you this so you know it’s possible. Even when your body feels like it’s shutting down. Even when you’ve failed a hundred times before. Even when you don’t believe it anymore.
It’s POSSIBLE.



If you’re where I was — reach out. I read every message.

When you’re overweight/obese and insulin resistant, doing an hour of cardio is one of the worst things you can do for your body.
I know. I was a personal trainer who couldn’t follow her own advice and knowledge because I kept doing it wrong for myself.
High intensity cardio spikes cortisol. Cortisol raises blood sugar. High blood sugar raises insulin. You’re working out and making insulin resistance worse.
What actually works:
Strength training. Three times a week. Movements your body can actually do RIGHT NOW — not when you’ve lost 50 pounds.
Wall push-ups. Bench sit-to-stands. Step-ups. Resistance band rows. These movements build muscle, and muscle is the most insulin-sensitive tissue in your body. More muscle means better insulin response.
Walking after meals. 10-15 minutes. Not an hour. Just after you eat. This single habit reduces post-meal blood sugar spikes significantly.
That’s it. That’s the movement that reverses insulin resistance.
Not punishing. Not extreme. Just specific and consistent.


Stop punishing your body. Start working WITH it. DM me.

If you are struggling to lose weight, feeling constantly fatigued, or dealing with stubborn belly fat, it’s time to look past just counting calories and start looking at your insulin response.
You don’t have to be pre-diabetic or living with Type 2 diabetes to be dealing with insulin resistance. When your diet is loaded with processed carbs, your body treats them exactly like sugar. It spikes your blood sugar, floods your system with insulin, and locks your body into fat-storage mode.
The fix isn’t skipping meals or eating bland food. The fix is focusing on real food and smart, protein-packed food swaps.
Case in point: Yesterday’s taco setup.
🌮 The Swaps:
• The VehicleTraded the processed, high-carb taco shells for a crisp, fresh bell pepper. Same crunch, zero sugar spike.
• The Protein Boost: Cooked up extra lean ground turkey and stirred in cottage cheese. It makes the meat incredibly creamy while doubling down on the protein to keep you full for hours.
• The Secret Weapon: Tossed in some edamame beans for an extra hit of clean, plant-based protein and fiber.
Weight loss and hormone health don’t require deprivation. It’s about eating real food that works with your metabolism, not against it. Stop settling for processed shortcuts that keep you feeling stuck. I prioritize fibre and protein every time I eat.

Type 2 diabetic. A1C of 7.1. Blood pressure 167 over 121. Barely able to walk. Extremely obese.
That was me four months ago.
My doctor didn’t say I couldn’t change. She just assumed I’d be managing numbers for the rest of my life. Medication. Monitoring. Maintenance.
I decided that wasn’t my story.
Not through extreme diets. Not through punishing workouts. Through understanding what was actually driving my numbers — insulin resistance — and addressing THAT specifically.
In 90 days my A1C dropped to 5.4. My blood pressure normalized 119/79. I lost 90 pounds. I went from barely walking to riding an electric scooter with my son for the first time and daily activity.
Your diagnosis is NOT your destiny.
If you have type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, insulin resistance, or PCOS and you’ve been told this is just how your body works — I want you to know something: I was told the same thing and I proved it wrong.
Kick Ash Coaching is built around exactly this. Not generic weight loss. Reversing the health conditions that are keeping you sick, stuck, and struggling.


If you've been t’ld your body can’t change — reach out. I was told the same thing.

Let’s stop the lie that getting healthy has to be miserable.
If you think a Type 2 diagnosis means you’re destined to eat flavourless cardboard for the rest of your life—you’re following the wrong blueprint.
I didn’t lose 90 lbs so far and reverse my diabetes by restrictive dieting. I did it by upgrading the food I already love and focusing on high-protein, high fibre, real food and nutritionally dense ingredients that keep me full and my blood sugar stable.
Here’s what my day looked like:
🥪 Meal 1: Carved fresh turkey (not pre cooked or deli), caramelized onions with a splash of fig balsamic (make sure no added sugar),goat cheese, and fresh arugula microgreens, all between apple ‘buns.’ Yes, apples! This gives me my fruit, high fibre, high protein (had extra turkey on the side to get the 8oz I need) and incredible flavour without the flour.
🍗 Meal 2: 8oz Chicken breast topped with a mountain of homemade Pico de Gallo—fresh tomatoes, onion, green pepper, jalapeño, lime, and cilantro. Plus a side of edamame. It’s the ultimate ‘not boring’ way to get my vegetables and meet my protein goals.
Your health journey should not feel like a punishment. If you’re ready to stop the struggle and start a sustainable lifestyle, let’s talk about building your unique blueprint.

Let’s talk about the word “controlled”, because it’s being thrown around in my comments and it’s medically inaccurate.
Controlled diabetes means your blood sugar is being managed through medication — insulin, pills, something outside your body keeping your numbers down. Your diabetes is still active. You’re just successfully suppressing it with medical intervention.
That is not my situation.
I am in remission. Zero medication. Zero insulin. Zero pills. My blood work no longer shows Type 2 diabetes.
Now let me be completely transparent — because I believe in honesty over hype:
Type 2 diabetes cannot be cured. Once your body has gone through that metabolic process, that history exists. If I was ever hospitalized, I would absolutely disclose my history. Why? It matters medically. IV steroids can cause dramatic blood sugar spikes. Certain medications affect metabolic function differently in someone with my history. Severe calorie deficits, major dietary shifts, stress — all of these interact with metabolic history in ways that medical teams need to know about.
I will always disclose my history. Always.
Here is what is also true: When you take my blood today, it does not show Type 2 diabetes. My A1C is in the healthy range. My body’s metabolic state has actively changed. Not masked. Not suppressed. Changed.
That is remission. That is the current medically recognized term for what happens when someone achieves healthy blood sugar levels without medication after a Type 2 diagnosis.
The word “controlled” is outdated casual language that implies active disease being managed. It does not apply to me, and I’m not sharing this to argue with strangers on the internet. I’m sharing this because somewhere right now there is a person sitting with a Type 2 diagnosis being told this is just something they manage forever. Being told controlled is the best they can hope for.
NOT TRUE
I need that person to know: remission is real. Metabolic change is real. Reversing insulin resistance is real. Your body is capable of more than you’ve been told.
My 12 week program is for real body and lifestyle transformation that changes your metabolic state — not mask it.
