My name is Jennifer Smith and I am a 49 year old wife to Mike and mother to my 9 year old son, Connor. They are my world. I love life and try to maintain a positive attitude in every aspect of my life. I feel that it’s important to take the time to help others and do so whenever I can.
I work full-time and work in an office environment, leaving me at a desk every day for 8+ hours a day. Sitting has been in my career for several years, and in that time frame I sat and ate my way to 393.6 pounds. I have always struggled with my weight, up and down, more up than down but the last 10 years have put my physical wellbeing and mental wellbeing in jeopardy.
Feeling the worst I have felt in my life, in constant pain and unable to do any activities with my son and having to look him in the face and say “Sorry, Mommy can’t do that, it hurts me too much” over and over broke my heart. Fed up and frustrated, knowing I was going to end my days on this earth early, I walked through the doors of Simply For Life after attending the annual Home Show in Saint John, NB.
March 18th, 2019 I walked into Simply For Life for a free consultation. It was the best thing I could have done for myself. I have a new lease on life! This is not a diet plan, it’s a complete lifestyle change and you are never alone, meeting with your consultant each week along your journey. I am so glad I made this my life.
My very first visit to a Simply For Life clinic was in 2010 months after my brother passed away, I had been grieving and not very healthy and heard an add on the radio for Simply For Life in Sussex so I decided I needed to make changes, as I was heading down a very unhealthy path. I had lost weight initially and loved the program for the accountability it gave me and the structure which I needed. I had gotten to a point where I thought I could do it on my own, but then in 2012 I decided…
My very first visit to a Simply For Life clinic was in 2010 months after my brother passed away, I had been grieving and not very healthy and heard an add on the radio for Simply For Life in Sussex so I decided I needed to make changes, as I was heading down a very unhealthy path. I had lost weight initially and loved the program for the accountability it gave me and the structure which I needed. I had gotten to a point where I thought I could do it on my own, but then in 2012 I decided to return as I had got off track again. This time I went to see Bruce in Saint John as I had a goal of bodybuilding, you know some people want to run a marathon but I want to step on stage and know that I worked hard to get to that top physical and mental condition.
I have struggled over the years, getting older and dealing with things like menopause and the stress of everyday life, but I have recommitted to the goal of competing in 2021, with Mike’s help of course. There, I said it in writing so now I am committed. I have always been interested in nutrition and exercise but my consistency has not always been strong, but I will never give up, something pushes me to keep going and so I am still here trying. I do not have a big inspirational story, but people say I am inspiring them, maybe because I keep trying when it’s tough. I am not perfect but if I can conquer the negative voices in my head I will reach my goals!
Weight loss is something I have struggled with all my life and have always wanted to live a healthier lifestyle. I am 38 years old and live in Truro, Nova Scotia. I am married with a son who is 5 and a stepdaughter who is 14! I’ve done Simply life for twice. This is my second time around. The first time I joined I struggled from severe back pain, herniated discs in my back and knew my weight likely played a big factor. In 2012-2013 when I joined Simply For Life, I lost 30 pounds and felt amazing. In 2014,…
Weight loss is something I have struggled with all my life and have always wanted to live a healthier lifestyle. I am 38 years old and live in Truro, Nova Scotia. I am married with a son who is 5 and a stepdaughter who is 14! I’ve done Simply life for twice. This is my second time around. The first time I joined I struggled from severe back pain, herniated discs in my back and knew my weight likely played a big factor. In 2012-2013 when I joined Simply For Life, I lost 30 pounds and felt amazing. In 2014, I gave birth to my son. I gained back 30 pounds with this pregnancy and final in September 2017 I knew I needed to do something again. This is when, my second journey with Simply For Life started again. Upon joining, I was on medication for high blood pressure and had to take an iron supplement for low iron and my back pain would flare up every now and then. Since 2017, I have lost 40 pounds and almost 80 inches. I no longer take ANY medication and have not experienced ANY back pain. With this journey, I have learned how to maintain a healthier lifestyle and have motivated people in my life to do the same. I started a full exercise routine in January 2019 and continue to do so today. “Every day is another chance to get stronger, to eat better, to live healthier and be the best version of you”
