Maria is a 35-year-old mother of two young daughters and married to her best friend. They live in central NY in the United States. She is a Certified Health Coach and works for her husband's real estate investing company. She has struggled with her weight for most of her life, which prompted her to go to college in 2006 to study nutrition and public health at Syracuse University. After graduating, she married and started her family before pursuing her career. She's been a stay-at-home mom while the kids were younger. She has always struggled with emotional eating. After a few traumatic events in her past, she reached her highest weight in 2017. At only 5'4" tall, she weighed in at 225 and felt like she constantly had to find clothing to cover up instead of what she wanted to wear. She was humiliated and desperately wanted a change. She tried practically every diet out there. During the fall of 2018, she decided to run to help lose weight since the calorie-restriction diets were not working. By the fall of 2019, she had completed her first marathon and had lost a good bit of weight; however, when she stopped the diet program, she regained it again. During the pandemic in 2020, she decided to pursue her career dream of becoming a health coach to help herself and others find happiness and freedom the way she desperately wanted to do on her own. After graduating from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, she found she wanted to focus more on the science behind weight loss and pursued a certification with Primal Health Coaching. She found Intermittent Fasting there and began a 16:8 protocol in June of 2022. She stopped fasting due to stress in her life and found herself eating through her emotions. She regained some of what she lost, but then discovered Gin Stephens and the clean fast which led her to also find Graeme and the Fasting Highway. She is coming up on her new 1-year fast-iversary and is within 15 pounds of her goal weight. She's determined to help spread the word about how life-changing and beneficial IF can be!
