Jenn Kay

My name is Jenn Kay.  I am co-coach with Julia on TEAM PINK.  This picture was taken of me 7 days into the 21 Day Jumpstart. Don’t I look happy? I should be happy. I had dropped 7 pounds that week. My face looks so thin! I used to hate having my photo taken. I had chipmunk cheeks! Not here! And I lost 14.25 inches off my frame at the end of the 21 days. But that was just the icing on the cake for me…  

Because the real benefit to this new lifestyle is that I feel so much better! Tina, Pilates, Paleo – have given me a new lease on life. And I was feeling pretty bleak about life just this past September. I was diagnosed with Crohn’s Disease at 18. And I have had my struggles, but this past couple years might have been the hardest. My doctors and I couldn’t seem to figure out a drug therapy that would work, I was crazy stressed, and eating all the wrong things. I had no life because I had no energy to do anything other than make it through work and then collapse on the couch. And I was missing so much work due to my Crohn’s flaring that I was thinking disability might become a reality.

I finally gave into Tina’s (2 years of) persistence about trying Paleo and signed up to do the jumpstart. I was desperate for something to help. I told her I was finally willing. And I am so glad I did. I feel 95% better. I wake up to more good days, to more energy, to feeling stronger and to feeling healthier! And you know what happens when you have more good days, more energy, strength and health? You feel like you can take on the world. You feel confident, radiant, happy, and dare I say, sexy.

Life isn’t a chore to have to muster through. It is an adventure. I feel amazing! And now I am able to start doing the things that I was held back from before because of being sick all of the time. It is truly like a whole new world has opened up to me.
