About us

Hey, I’m Maria.

If you’re here, I already know how frustrated and exhausted you might feel — because I’ve been there too.

Back in 2016, my body changed fast. Not overnight, but enough that one day I stepped on the scale and realized I was over 200 pounds. I felt uncomfortable, sluggish, and completely disconnected from my own body.

The Diagnosis

Eventually, I was diagnosed with PCOS, and not long after, pre-diabetes.

My doctor prescribed Metformin, a diabetes medication, and said it would help balance my blood sugar and weight. When that didn’t make much difference, they added Trulicity — a GLP-1 medication that are all the rage now, but at the time, was used only for diabetics.

I was told that no diet or exercise was necessary — that these medications alone would make me lose weight. But the progress was painfully slow, and the side effects were awful. I felt nauseous, dizzy, and more disconnected than ever. It got to the point where I wasn't even able to have a social life anymore. The medications curbed my appetite and made me feel sick every time I did eat. So I stopped eating altogether.

No food = No energy

I just worked and went to school, that was it. Did not have ANY energy to spare for my friends or family.

The Breaking Point

One day it hit me: it was ludicrous to think I could heal without changing how I lived.

No pill was ever going to fix what my habits were creating.

It’s hard to admit, but back then, my health was so poor I couldn’t even walk around for long periods of time. I couldn’t go to an amusement park without constant knee and foot pain from the extra weight. I remember pretending I was fine when inside, I knew I wasn’t.

Those moments are what pushed me to change.

So I got to work — lots of trial and error, confusion, and frustration. There’s so much noise online that I had no idea what actually worked for someone with PCOS. But I stayed consistent, learned, and kept showing up for myself.

The Transformation

Now, nine years later, I’ve lost 55 pounds and over six inches off my waist. My blood sugar is stable, my hormones are balanced, and I finally feel strong — inside and out.

I’m proud of the body I’ve built and the person I’ve become. I can do proper pull-ups and push-ups now — something that never would’ve been possible without losing weight and building strength.

At 30, I’m a completely different person than I was at 21.

The Mission

And here’s the truth — it doesn’t have to take you nine years like it took me.

Even with PCOS, you can start seeing real results in as little as four months, and feel fully transformed within a year.

I know how it feels when your body seems out of control, when every solution makes you feel worse, and when you’re doing everything right but nothing’s working. I’ve lived it.

That’s why I created this space — to help women like you finally get real answers, real results, and a body that feels like yours again.
