Progress Report

Progress Report

After two and a half months with Elite Nutrition and Performance, I am happy to report my progress thus far!

Since I became a sponsored athlete, I have lost four pounds and 3% body fat! This may not sound like much, but I can definitely notice a difference in the way my body looks. I am very happy with the changes I've made during my time with ENP.

I wasn't going to include this, but I received a little encouragement from Kristen and decided to post these...here's a "before" picture:


With some tweaks to my diet and exercise, and some new workout techniques....


Here's my progress!





(forgive the flaming football tattoo on my arm, it was temporary)

I'm proud of the changes I've made to my diet and exercise and excited to see how my body continues to change and improve as I continue with this process. I am forever grateful to Sam and Kristen at ENP for their generosity and support throughout my sponsorship. I only have a few more weeks with ENP, which is bittersweet, but Kristen and Sam have equipped me with healthy lifestyle skills that I can use for the rest of my life.

Thanks, ENP! Y'all rock!

The Lunch Box

The Lunch Box

When I first started my journey with ENP, I struggled with finding ways to keep food available throughout the day for my morning snack, afternoon snack, and meals. I found that when I was away from the kitchen all day, I would miss important snacks simply because I didn't have the proper foods available to me on-the-go.

Enter The Lunch Box.


The Lunch Box became the solution to my problem. I began to pack The Lunch Box with various snacks and meals every morning and carry The Lunch Box around with me wherever I went. I became an expert at packing and storing food to keep it fresh throughout the day. Carrying The Lunch Box around relieved a great deal of stress associated with finding the right food to eat at the right time and kept me on track with my snacking and meals.

As beneficial as The Lunch Box (and still is) was to my busy lifestyle, I nonetheless encountered "lunch box haters" who thought it was amusing that a nineteen year old college student carries around a lunch box all day, every day.



Sure, it may be a little odd that I carry The Lunch Box wherever I go. But, it's convenient to have access to the food that I need throughout the day it and helps me feel healthier and more energetic. So, despite the "lunch box haters," I will continue to carry my lunch box with pride.

PS- I got my ENP Tank this week and I love it! Check it out:
