My kids are grown, and I just want to be able to enjoy getting older with my wife without joint pain, and without totally giving up the things I love to eat (and drink). I was always miserable in our challenges, even when I lost weight, because I had to abstain from drinking or eating certain foods. I decided I would never do another gym challenge that barred me from having a beer!

I’m developing healthy everyday eating habits, while also preparing for novice CrossFit competitions. My coach has taught me how to fuel my body so that I feel the best I can both inside and outside of the gym. More carbs and still losing weight?! Okay!

BIN is so much more than just getting a set of macros and hoping for the best. When you work with a coach, you're working with someone that really gives a crap about the person you are, what your goals are, and wants to give you the tools to succeed. They celebrate your successes and push you to keep going when you want to quit.

After college, my weight fluctuated over the years as I would be consistent with working out and then fall off the wagon once again. Starting BIN has literally been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Not only do I finally feel comfortable in my own skin, but BIN has sparked a passion for nutrition in me. I love learning about it and talking to people about it.

I don't even know where to being to explain what a game changer BIN has been for me. I was always conscious and aware of my health, but found a lot of the things that I was doing never gave me the results I wanted. I tried every fad diet, which lead to restriction. What I quickly realized from all of these diets was that I wasn’t able to stick to any of them.

The first few weeks I was hesitant to buy-in because I felt like I was eating so much and macro-counting does take a little effort in the beginning when you are getting used to it. However, I began seeing so many changes in my body, that I could not deny the program was working! Since joining, I have lost over 20 lbs and over 8% body fat!

I began Black Iron Nutrition because my weight loss had staled and I had no clue what to do because yo-yo dieting had ruined my relationship with food. I wanted a program that would teach me about nutrition and be something sustainable that I could continue beyond any membership time frame.

I am grateful for the insights, lessons, and knowledge that I've gained from BIN. It's taught me so much about myself, improved my relationship with food, and yes, put me in a better place aesthetically. My experience has been nothing short of wonderful. It's truly changed my life.

This is the most I’ve ever learned from a nutrition coach and I won’t forget any of it. I can easily say I’ve come out of this relationship with a deeper love and appreciation for my body, for not only what it looks like but what it does for me in the gym and every day. And I am better prepared to take on the world, knowing what and how to feed my body.

I didn’t know how to properly fuel myself and I had been under-eating for such an extreme amount of time. Now I look forward to all of the meals I make because they are things I enjoy! Joining BIN has changed my life in so many aspects and I could not be more grateful for everything they have done for me.

My weight has gone down but that was not really my goal. (I lost about 15 pounds, 3 pounds a month or so). My goal was to create healthy habits around food and fitness. I owe so much to Black Iron Nutrition for changing my outlook on health. Big thank you to BIN for changing my outlook on nutrition and food!

I was exhausted from guessing if what I was putting in my body was getting me to my goals. I was TIRED of it. I wanted to know my body and really learn what it truly needed. I was a total novice to the nutrition game, and to be honest a little intimidated, but that is the AMAZING thing about this program: no matter your nutrition background you will always have a place at Black Iron Nutrition.

In the last three months, my body has gone through a pretty amazing transformation (nearly 19 lbs gone!). But the most profound thing to come out of this experience is quite basic - food knowledge. Education is something I have always prioritized in my life, but until BIN, I equated education to be only academic.

I can't stress enough how worth it is to have someone to take a look at what you’re eating! Personally my goals were to just be more flexible with the types of foods I included in my diet. I had no idea I was even under eating and my energy levels could be so improved!

Today I can honestly say that this was one of the most important changes I have ever made in my life. After a couple months of tweaking my numbers, learning the importance of consistency, and finding foods that I really enjoyed that fit my macros, I started to feel absolutely amazing. Not only did I start to lose both weight and body fat, but also my acne completely cleared up, I was able to get movements that I could never do before, and my mindset started to change,

I can say, without a doubt, this program has helped me achieve a new level of fitness. I’ve lost 15 pounds all the while getting faster, stronger and leaner. Truly amazing! The guidance I receive from my coach is spot on and I love the fact that there are so many coaches available so I can match the coach to my needs and feel like I’m getting the most out of the program.
