I am down 25 lbs and just shy of 10% body fat in 1 year. I work full time as a Nurse Practitioner, I am a CF-L2 and head trainer at a CrossFit gym and have a 2 & 3 year old. BIN has been the perfect fit for me and I have found so much freedom and enjoyment out of this program.

I started this journey at 179lbs and I am currently down to 150lbs. I have gone from a size 12 jean back down to a size 6. Beyond the scale, the love and appreciation I have for my body now is the real accomplishment. Women’s bodies are SO incredible and we need to treat them that way.

I had tried a few fad diets, cleanses, eliminated food... all of which were not effective and absolutely not sustainable. During my time with BIN, I was equipped with the knowledge I needed to have a healthy relationship with food and to be able to maintain a way of eating that was mindful, intentional, and maintainable for life.

In the past 6 months I have lost 11lbs, 2" off my waist, and an inch off my hips and thighs. But more importantly than that, I'm eating more than I ever have and I'm eating WELL. I'm fueling myself with good food and not just stuff I can throw in the microwave because Ryann has helped me learn what my body actually needs.

I joined BIN when I was the heaviest I've ever been. I was no stranger to macro counting, but I needed the accountability, tough love, and encouragement that comes with one-on-one coaching. I am currently down over 13 lbs and almost 20 inches overall, and I honestly feel amazing inside and out!

At the time, I was 50 lbs heavier, I didn't have an ounce of confidence but deep down inside I knew I wanted and deserved better for myself. I bought the original flexible dieting book, taught myself about macros and started to eat better. This wasn't my first rodeo with weight loss, I had done and failed weight watchers many times.

Thanks to BIN I have achieved MULTIPLE goals I didn’t think were possible. Physically, I am at my lightest. I am also at my strongest. Both of those are great achievements, but the biggest win comes from what my coach has taught me between the ears. Long story short, I don’t look at myself and seek out all of my flaws anymore - instead I love myself and all of my imperfections.

I can honestly say that the decision to start BIN has been one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. The physical transformation has been absolutely incredible! I have lost almost 60 pounds, I have gone down three pants sizes, and I have really started reaching some amazing fitness goals at the gym! I am able to do things during my crossfit training that I NEVER thought would be possible for me!

I've never been able to successfully lose weight - ever - and I was able to lose pounds and inches and GAIN so much strength working with my coach. My progress was slower than many but it's occurred in a way that I think I can maintain for the long run. This program provides the tools and mindset needed to make long term changes.

Black Iron has helped me create consistent habits that work with how I live life. I refuse to meal prep because I always end up wasting the food (I HATE leftovers), I eat out A LOT, and I am a dessert snob and love pastries (I'd live in a french patisserie if I could). I now have the tools to enjoy those things and still hit my goals.

I have created a better relationship with food. I am eating more calories than I have ever done before, and still continue to lose body fat. I have lost about 7% body fat since I started tracking with Ryann and I have also seen how little the scale really matters. I absolutely recommended Black Iron Nutrition to anyone who is looking to better their lifestyle.

Before I joined I was approaching 40 and thinking, this is it. I’ve tried everything. I can’t lose this weight. That was until I was matched with coach Maggie. My progress isn’t just measured by the scale which has been liberating. It is just one of many forms of info that are evaluated. Every person receives an individualized plan to figure out what works best for them.

I lost over 10 pounds, without my macros dropping (not even really cutting) and I'm 15# heavier than when I finished previous cuts, but I think I actually look better. I feel way better. I'm eating full meals, I'm not hungry and I look forward to my weekly check-ins, my coaches advice, and it's really powerful to look back at the week and find something, anything to stamp as something you're proud of.

I decided to join BIN because I saw a friend of mine at the gym have great results with the program. I was tired of how restrictive my diet was and I was really unhappy. I have to admit that for me it was a process to trust someone. I am a doctor and sometimes we think we know a lot, but we also need coaches to guide us through the things we struggle with. Every check-in Nicole was willing to explain to me what we were doing and why.

To say this past year has changed my life is an understatement. I’ve learned to love myself no matter what I look like, progress isn’t always linear, your goal weight doesn’t mean you’ll have your goal body, your goals are always changing, and I’ve learned to celebrate the little victories. And I couldn’t have asked for a better coach.

I have had an incredible experience with Black Iron Nutrition. BIN helped me get back to being myself again. It helped me learn to love myself by taking care of me from the inside out. My coach was supportive, honest, dedicated, and wonderful!! Thank you for improving my life and helping me to create a lasting lifestyle change!

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!

When filling out the intake information I said that I wanted to lose over 30 lbs. I remember thinking there was a good chance it would never happen. It amazes me that in less than 4 months I was able to hit my goal and am now down 45 lbs! Now that I know I can do this, I’m excited to work on other goals that I didn’t think were possible!

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.
