Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Kristy Mccammon. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Kristy, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Was there a defining moment in your professional career? A moment that changed the trajectory of your career?

In 2017, I was overweight, sugar obsessed, and didn’t know how to stop eating sweets. i craved sugar all the time.

I was trying another diet plan and right after lunch, all I could think about was the ice cream in the freezer I promised myself I wouldn’t eat.

I tried to keep my mind and hands busy, but 15 minutes later I was sitting on my couch in my dark living room with tears in my eyes and an empty ice cream container on my lap.

After a desperate prayer, I realized I had to eat to live, but I didn’t have to eat sugar or processed food.

That moment changed everything.

I learned that I could be abstinent from processed sugar and quit trying to moderate.

“none is easier than one” and I can be free from the pull of sugary foods.

Kristy, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

Most of my life has been spent being overweight and food obsessed. Unfortunately, food became my friend and comfort at a very young age. This set up a lifetime of dependence on food for every emotion; sadness, joy, fear, excitement, happiness, anger, boredom, chaos – you name the emotion and food was the answer. I was in a battle with food daily. I was either white knuckling my way to stay out of the food or I was overeating and bingeing – there was no in between. No matter what I tried, I simply could not let go of sugar and flour laden junk food. It had truly become a stronghold in my life that kept me enslaved to food. The idea of moderation always sounded ideal – just one piece, just one bowl, just one slice, just one….. that never worked for me. Once I had JUST ONE, my brain was actively demanding more. I was in a place of desperation and my weight was the highest it had ever been.

I had tried every diet and plan available. In past weight loss attempts, there was usually short term success, but eventually I was right back to obsessing over food and bingeing on sugar and flour filled foods. I wanted a permanent way out of this food obsession. I was ready to fully surrender! At that point, I came across the idea of food boundaries. This is simply the idea of following boundaries in regards to food; no sugar, no flour, 3 meals a day, and measured portions. I DID have to eat food to survive, but I DID NOT have to eat sugar and flour. I knew in that moment that my rescue boat had arrived and I just had to jump in and paddle! I began eating amazing, delicious, and abundant amounts of food. A lifestyle change, rather than a diet, was exactly what I needed!

I have been maintaining a 100 pound weight loss for 4 years now. Sometimes, living sugar and flour free is hard, but being obese and food obsessed is much harder! Now I can FULLY ENJOY the life that I have ALWAYS LOVED.

Life is so much sweeter without sugar and my mission is to help those who are stuck in the vicious food addiction cycle to gain the freedom they need to fully live out God’s plan for their life.

Other than training/knowledge, what do you think is most helpful for succeeding in your field?

Although I am not a doctor or nutritionist…
I often say that I have a degree in P.E.
Personal experience.

My personal experience puts me in a unique position to FULLY understand my clients and their struggle. I’ve been in the abyss of sugar addiction and come out the other side

Have you ever had to pivot?

When I broke free from sugar addiction, I never dreamed I would be helping others in a coaching role.

I simply shared my story of overcoming sugar addiction and it resonated with people so well that I had women reaching out to me from all over the world.
