Welcome to the Frankly Tiffany!
My name is Tiffany, I am a wife, a mom of 5, and a fitness coach.

You deserve to be in control, and to be happy....we all do.
Here is my journey up until now.
I am a mother to FIVE children, not one...two....three...four...but FIVE. Within my mob of kiddos, I have 1 special needs child, 1 with ADHD and Learning Disabilities, 1 with type one diabetes, and as of now 2 toddlers....WHY am I telling you this? Is it to toot my own horn...No...it's because I have been through a lot, my experience allows me to be able to relate to a lot of different people, and because I STILL make the time to be as healthy as I can be. No.Excuses.
My story isn't that simple though, keep going....
After I had my third child, I settled into a very deep depression, with uncontrollable anxiety...I was a wreck. I checked myself into a hospital program because I could not manage or understand what I was going through. I was put on a large cocktail of medications, underwent a series of E.C.T treatments, the whole nine yards. I was stable on my medication for a few years, but something was still "off" for me. I later had my fourth, and when he was about 6 months old, was pregnant with my fifth. I was overweight, my eating was out of control, nothing about the way I was living was healthy. I would eat out of exhaustion, stress, and quick fix meals. I didn't feel at all attractive, I had no energy, and I was just plain, unhappy with myself...I wasn't who I wanted to be. When my youngest was about 8 months old, I slowly started transitioning, with walking and jogging intervals with the little ones while the older were in school, I slowly cut out my need for drinking pop, I started eating healthier and making better choices...I didn't start with a "This is going to happen overnight" mentality. I worked up to using Slim in 6, HIIT workouts, P90x, longer jogging periods, dancing, a personal trainer...and slowly started weaning myself off my antidepressant, it took time, but I knew the time was going to pass anyway...so I kept going. Here I am a year later, no longer on any medications, no longer in an XL shirt, and I now have a better body than I had after my third baby, and stronger than I have ever been, both physically and mentally.
When I was 19, working out and watching what I ate, was a routine for me, that I lost sight of. I forgot how good I felt....it was like the knowledge of working out and eating healthy had completely vanished....I thought it was just because I was young, that I felt as good as I did...and that since I was older now, I couldn't feel that way again.
Food is the most abused anxiety drug, exercise is the most underutilized antidepressant.
I am proof that the statement above is accurate. I am NOT implying that no one needs medication, and that EVERYONE shouldn't take it, I am saying that, taking it or not....what you eat, and exercising, WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. It will change EVERYTHING, how you walk, talk, feel, your confidence, your will, your internal POWER.
Anyone can do this, ANYONE...and ANYONE can change....YOU can change...YOU can feel amazing....YOU can regain your power...YOU can prove everyone wrong...YOU can prove YOURSELF wrong...and I want to help anyone and everyone find that power within themselves...because I found mine.
You deserve to be in control, and to be happy....we all do.
Was I perfect 100% of the time while getting here, No...am I perfect 100% of the time now...NO...this is life. But, the small changes add up, and create more small changes, which create...a life of quality changes.
I have to admit, I was intimidated to start, in a way...I was scared. But, I did it anyway, and I am so grateful.
I have lost about 50 lbs in a year since my pregnancy, YES, I was pregnant, but I couldn't blame all that weight on pregnancy...and I am not going to either.
Now...here I am...and I am not going anywhere but up!
