“Honestly, I almost didn’t submit my story because I wasn’t 100% “perfect” during the challenge. But then I realized, “Well, that’s the point, right?” Life isn’t going to be perfect all the time, and neither are we. It’s during these imperfect moments that we need to bounce back and stick to the foundations.
I started off strong, but around the 6th week of the challenge, I had to undergo unexpected surgery, which took me out for the remainder of the challenge. Despite the roadblocks, I stuck to the foundations of the LSF HBMP and am now 12 pounds lighter and a total of 12.5 inches smaller! If you take anything from my story, let it be this: don’t let one small hiccup ruin your entire journey! I could have thrown in the towel and given up, but I didn’t, and the results are beyond amazing. You don’t have to be 100% perfect to see results.
The “old me” would have given up the moment I had surgery, thinking, “Screw it, I can’t be 100% perfect, so what’s the point?” But I realized that LSF isn’t just another diet or fad—it’s truly a lifestyle, and a maintainable one at that! These past 8 weeks have proven that to me and hopefully to everyone following my journey on Instagram. I have never felt (or looked) better, and the confidence I now have is priceless.
Thank you, Team LSF, for empowering women like me to rediscover their strength, confidence, and joy and knowing that even through the hard times in life I can still keep going.”

Story:
“The last three years have been life changing for me. I started a family, and now have two wonderful babies, a two and a half year old and a nine month old. As my family has grown, so has my body. I’ve grown babies, but also added on a significant amount of weight. After having my daughter, I really struggled with losing weight and maintained about 15lbs more than what I started with. After my son, I just added to what I had already gained, but this time I wanted to stop looking at weight loss as a one time goal, but rather a forever lifestyle that could be maintained. I lost 8 lbs during this challenge and am now below my prepregnancy weight for my son!!
But, that’s not what’s most significant to me. In addition to my before and after pictures for this challenge, I have a before and after mindset. Before I thought, if I don’t stick to my plan, I’m a failure. I might as well restart tomorrow. After I think, if I dont stick to my plan it’s OK, I’m human! I might as well find joy in the moment because I’m still on my journey!
To me this challenge wasn’t about being perfect (although hello 55 day app workout streak!), it was about having the discipline to push myself and stay consistent while having the grace to accept when things aren’t “perfect”. There were days where I didnt have the energy to go all in, but I still found a way to move in the moment and give what I could. There were days when I enjoyed an ice cream with my daughter, but I still made sure I achieved my protein goals and made a veggie with every meal. I’m so proud of what I’ve accomplished in the last 8 weeks, but more importantly, I’m proud of the framework I’ve set up to continue achieving my goals and become the best version and role model of myself for my kids and husband!“

Story:
“SSD was an eye opening challenge for me because it was my first 8 week challenge back to the LSF community. I had to sit down with myself and evaluate what was holding me back from being happy in my skin and really try with my nutrition. I cut out excessive alcohol and tried to be cognizant of what calories were going in and coming out! I 1000% upped my activity with the bonus moves, app workouts, and walking every day at least a mile at work or with my dog. I stopped making excuses and started to dig into my discipline reserve, something that has not been used in a LONG time.
One huge change that I implemented this challenge was actually joining an accountability group. It was nice to see other women going through the same things that I was with scheduling and feeling burnt out, etc. but we kept showing up for ourselves! Very inspiring! I tried new exercise techniques and fell in love with moving my body again for 20-30 mins to improve not only my physical appearance, but boost mental cognition and mood! I am a full love sweat fitness believer since 2019 and you guys just keep impressing me with the quality and quantity of challenges to keep us motivated and looking our best.”

This was just the most intimate group ever, we were so vulnerable and I just feel so connected to them. I also have to mention Allison (@allison.fit.lsf) and Ellinor (@ellinor_lsf) who were not part of my group, but constantly messaged me and encouraged me!
