"Hi There! I am TARA FRAZIER! I have been a Health Coach for over 12 years, transforming the bodies of thousands of women and men, educating them on the proper balance of moderation and consistency. My mission is to allow my clients to achieve their Health & Fitness Goals without restriction, providing them with a sustainable method. I am incredibly passionate about educating my clients on balance and long-term sustainability, providing my clients with realistic tools and methods in order to achieve their goals without restriction. I enjoy showing my clients that they can achieve any goal, earning the confidence they crave, through a consistent balanced journey that is filled with education, health, decadence and happiness. My own personal Fitness Journey and transformation has molded me into the Athlete and Coach I am today. Why/how do you ask? I have been in your shoes. Both Health and Fitness were never originally part of my lifestyle, nor was I genetically blessed with a physique that I felt comfortable with or proud of. In order to achieve my goals and gain the confidence that I dreamt about, I realized that transforming my mind and lifestyle was just as important as transforming my physique. Losing over 100 pounds, not only once, but twice in my life, has taught me how to not only transform my body, but transform my MIND. Now, you may read that and think,"" wow, TWICE, she lost 100 pounds, twice, neat."" But then again, not so neat. If I lost weight successfully the first time, WHY and HOW did I gain it all back? Good question. The answer, and one I am not proud of, RESTRICTION. I first learned how to transform my body through a method of restriction, limiting and avoiding specific foods in order to achieve the physical results I craved. I limited dairy, processed foods, refined carbohydrates, and even FRUIT. I saw the results, so I stuck with it, no matter how unhappy I was. Looking back, I am embarrassed of the ""bad food labeling"" and negative behavior that I demonstrated. With lots of time, extreme accuracy and consistency, I developed a physique I was very confident with. I met my husband in the gym and we both enjoyed living this fit lifestyle together. About 7 years later, I was blessed to become pregnant with my first born. I stopped exercising (for no medical reason or suggestion), and my pregnancy was filled with over-the-top decadence. I felt that I ""deserved"" the decadence, since I drastically restricted what I allowed myself to consume prior. This practice of restricting then binging, not only led me to gain the weight I had lost back, but it left me with a very confused and negative relationship with food. I had to learn the tools for success ALL OVER AGAIN, transform my body, and my lifestyle. This time around, I was able to transform my body through consistent proper training and flexible and Balanced Nutrition through COUNTING MACROS. I did not limit food groups; I did not deprive myself of what I wanted. I learned how to fit my favorite foods into my daily diet with moderation. Once I realized how amazing I felt both aesthetically but mentally, I felt so foolish of what I had previously practiced. With continued accuracy, consistency and TIME, this balanced and flexible approach felt automatic and like second nature. Years later, I was blessed to become pregnant with my second child. I was able to enjoy a fit, healthy pregnancy the second time around, and I was proud of my physique at all stages."
