I Faced My Fitness Fears & Lost 120lbs | BRAND NEW ME

MEREDITH Hutson was very confident at her heaviest weight and felt beautiful in her own skin - the reason she began her journey was due to health issues. The now 28-year-old of Texas would experience numbness in her hands and feet as soon as she woke up and had a thyroid condition. Meredith said: “I just knew that I just couldn't continue living that way no matter how confident I was in my own skin.” She began exercising and completely changed her eating habits and over the course of two years, lost 120lbs. She said losing weight helped with all her medical issues and she no longer has the thyroid condition. Meredith said her husband, Steven, helped her on her journey by teaching her how to cook and a year into her journey, he felt inspired to start his own. Meredith joked: “He saw me getting these gains and wanted a piece of that.” She completely changed her life and physique through exercise and gained confidence in the gym. She said: “I went from being scared and terrified to do these workouts, to falling in love with the process.” Meredith started sharing her journey after she had lost 40lbs. She said: “The feedback really just fueled me and pushed me even more. And then of course I lost 120lbs and I still can't believe that today.” In January 2022, Meredith launched a fitness programme and became a coach. She successfully grew her client base and now works with people all over the world. Today she will be putting two of her clients through their paces in the gym.
