“I lost 24 pounds in 3 months - down to a weight I haven't seen since high school.  I have tons more energy and I feel so much better!”

“My entire adult life I have always *wanted* to improve my health, slim down, and increase my energy.  At 42 years old, I was FINALLY able to achieve all those goals with the help of the SWS team!  Sarah and her team’s practical tips and positive attitudes, with frequent non-judgemental check-ins, was exactly what I needed!  I lost 24 pounds in 3 months - down to a weight I haven't seen since high school.  I have tons more energy and I feel so much better!  I have a super busy career as a surgeon but Sarah helped me make simple modifications to my daily and weekly routines that never made me feel like I was putting in a ton of effort or adding extra hassle to my day.  She helped me strategize for weekend challenges (managing lots of dinners out, "special occasions", alcohol).  I can't say enough about Sarah and her team!  THANK YOU Strong With Sarah!”


“In an industry that, I feel, preys on the desperation of people by promising unrealistic, fast weight loss with gimmicks and fads, it was refreshing to hear the real deal from Sarah”

“As a 59 old woman, losing weight is more challenging than it used to be… And believe me, it has always been difficult!  I felt like I was out of options when I started working with Sarah, but I needed to do something as the weight on the scale increased to disturbing numbers. Being accountable to somebody actually made a huge difference, and being allowed to be honest because there was no judgement on her part – only support – created an environment where I could learn how to make better decisions and see the bigger picture. Other than my weight loss, I’m so happy to be rid of the constant food noise. In an industry that, I feel, preys on the desperation of people by promising unrealistic, fast weight loss with gimmicks and fads, it was refreshing to hear the real deal from Sarah. At times, it will be hard and frustrating but if you are consistent more times than not, you will get results. In 3 months I lost 15 pounds, and I think about food so much less than I used too. I highly recommend making this investment in yourself if you can.”


“After 5 months of working together, I was not only able to lose 30+ pounds, I gained back my confidence, energy and happiness. The biggest impact this program has given me is the ability to enjoy eating again.”

“Before finding Strong with Sarah, I was overwhelmed with the number of contradictory opinions on how to lose weight. I chose Sarah because of her focus on a realistic approach that could be maintained for the long run - this wasn't a quick fix program that would reverse it impacts shortly after stopping. 

After 5 months of working with Strong with Sarah, I was not only able to lost 30+ pounds, I gained back my confidence, energy and happiness.  Before working with Sarah, I would avoid social events, reunions, and pictures because I was embarrassed about the way I looked. Sarah has given me my life back- I look forward to events and reconnecting with people and my relationships with family/friends have also improved.

I was surprised how straight forward the process was - I would almost classify it as "easy.” Sarah and her team provide support using trainings, messages, and 1:1/group conversations which really helped me conquer my problem areas when it comes to food. The biggest impact this program has given me is the ability to enjoy eating again.

After working with Sarah, I am confident I have the tools to maintain my weight loss and either overcome situations that used to trip me up with eating, or move through them. If you are looking to sign up but scared to make the investment, understand that what you gain far outweighs the effort that you will put in to reach your goal.”


“Because of the accountability, mindset trainings, and most importantly for me, the implementation of new habits, slowly but surely, the weight started to come off without me having to count calories.”

Working with the Strong with Sarah team was a game changer for me.  I had tried so hard to lose weight on my own for years with no success. And then...the pandemic struck. I gained more weight. Soon after the worst 2 years of it were over, I found out I was pregnant with my third child. That was a blessing, but naturally, I gained more weight.

After having my daughter, I found that I was still struggling to lose the extra weight on my own, so I started searching for help. After talking to Sarah, it seemed like she was a perfect fit. I was not disappointed!

Because of the accountability, mindset trainings, and most importantly for me, the implementation of new habits, slowly but surely, the weight started to come off without me having to count calories. Some of the habits were harder for me to implement and I didn't make some of the changes as quickly as I would have liked. But in hindsight, perhaps that was a good thing because due to how hard I had to work for them, they are now etched into my day-to-day routine. Now, even if I don't stop to snap a picture of everything I'm eating, I pause to think before eating in the same way that I got used to doing during the program. Sustainability with my weight loss has always been the hardest, so working on these habits and mindset shifts was the key for me. I don't eat mindlessly anymore and that, for me, is HUGE! I'm listening to my body, eating when hungry, and making smarter choices that don't require any extra time (which as a mom of 3, I simply don't have!)


“I am so grateful I found Sarah and the wonderful Coach Victoria”

“I worked with Strong with Sarah during a time of incredible disruption and change in my life. My coach Victoria kept me centered and focused on healthy wins, with just the right amount of encouragement to keep my momentum going. Once I hit my goal, she kept me motivated to maintain, and even stretch myself in terms of healthy activity. I am so grateful I found Sarah and the wonderful Coach Victoria. Thank you!”


Strong With Sarah is a perfectly customized program that works to build on your strengths while giving you a very manageable framework to tackle your weaknesses / bad habits.

Strong with Sarah has put me on a really positive wellness journey and lifted me up from the post-baby, post-COVID, fad diet funk that I was in.

A few months before signing up, I had attempted keto and totally failed - and in fact gained weight from the whole experience because I ended up feeling more guilty and confused than when I started.

SWS is a perfectly customized program that works to build on your strengths while giving you a very manageable framework to tackle your weaknesses / bad habits. It offers common sense nutritional and fitness advice, as well as unpacks some of the negative or distorted thinking that gets most people into unhealthy habits to begin with.

While it can seem an investment, overall I believe it to be a great value for the price in terms of having a personal coach, and the videos and reference materials are really excellent - I watched some of them 3-4 times.

It is very important to approach this program less as a "quick fix" and more as the beginning of a journey that will have ups and downs, but ultimately move you closer to many different types of personal goals.

So thank you to Sarah and Victoria for the great approach, I look forward to being part of the SWS community going forward.


“Because of her coaching and encouragement, I’ve lost over 30 pounds and counting!”

“I enjoyed my time working with the Sarah so much! She is so easy to talk to. Being able to communicate easily through the app really helped me get through tougher times on my health and fitness journey. Because of her coaching and encouragement, I’ve lost over 30 pounds and counting. I would’ve never been able to do it without her help!”


“With this program, I was able to get back to my pre-pregnancy healthy weight and fit into my normal clothes again.”

I worked with Sarah for about 6 months postpartum. Sarah's coaching was exactly the kind of support I needed during my postpartum recovery!  Before having my son, I was concerned that it would be really tough to get back to a healthy weight and return to exercise. But with this program, I was able to get back to my pre-pregnancy healthy weight and fit into my normal clothes again. I felt very supported the whole time and looked forward to coaching calls to troubleshoot any roadblocks I was running into. Highly recommend!


“Britt, who was my accountability coach, provided the support, encouragement, education and honesty every week that I needed to help me power through those last 15 pounds”

I had tried many times to lose the last 15 pounds, but I just could not seem to do it on my own. I found the Strong With Sarah program, and it was a game-changer. Britt, who was my accountability coach, provided the support, encouragement, education and honesty every week that I needed to help me power through those last 15 pounds. I am so grateful to her! I would recommend this program to anyone trying to get healthy.


“Sarah and Victoria were very accessible and responsive to my requests and questions. In three months I lost 17.3 pounds!”

I loved working with Strong with Sarah! Sarah and Victoria were very accessible and responsive to my requests and questions. Their program was tailored to me and that's what makes it work. I loved how Sarah's trainings were sent in video form and I could watch on my own time. I learned A LOT about eating habits. I'm not new to the weight loss game... and still learned a lot. How am I in my 40's and didn't know what I should be eating macro wise. In three months I lost 17.3 lbs. Their program focuses on mindset, habits, not giving up and long-term, lasting, realistic goals. I highly recommend them if you're trying to become more fit.


“With the excellent support provided by the coaching team, I was able to embrace a ‘common sense’ approach to weight loss that helped me finally make progress on my goals.”

Coaching with Victoria was so awesome! With the excellent support provided by the coaching team, I was able to embrace a "common sense" approach to weight loss that helped me finally make progress on my goals. I am so happy I decided to jump in to this experience, and have learned skills that will help me continue to lose and maintain weight in the future!


“I actually feel confident about the foods I'm eating and my own ability to keep the weight I’ve lost off”

I had a failed experience with a dietician in the past and felt nervous about trying a coaching system like Strong With Sarah. At the same time, I was steadily gaining weight and felt desperate and out of control. Six months later, I can say that working with Strong With Sarah was a fantastic investment. I know more than ever about nutrition, and I actually feel confident about the foods I'm eating and my own ability to keep the weight I’ve lost off. I learned a lot from both weekly training videos and my accountability coach. Plus, I have found a whole bunch of new foods that I genuinely enjoy eating.

For the first time in my life, I see zero point in starving myself to lose weight. I also feel like I finally have a sustainable solution. I started this program optimistic, determined, and committed to making a change. I was also nervous, shy about being "huge", and saw the number on the scale as a quantitative indicator of my own value as a person. These are deep seated feelings that many of us have tattooed on our brains. I can't say all of of my negative feelings are gone, but the extremely supportive, knowledgeable, and positive coaches at Strong With Sarah have given me a sense of confidence about my body that I haven't had before. I would say that's a huge win!


“The trainings were awesome and made me think about things I never thought of before! If you are on the fence, take the plunge! You won’t regret it!”

This program is so different from other weight loss programs. The focus goes beyond losing weight, and instead focuses on making life long lifestyle changes to support better overall health. The program is flexible, reasonable, and the coaches are great at helping you and cheering you on, and not critiquing you when you slip or struggle. I am so grateful for my time in this program. The trainings were awesome and made me think about things I never thought of before! If you are on the fence, take the plunge! You won’t regret it!


 
Weight loss change
 

“I used to flip between ‘I want to look good and lose weight’ and ‘You only live once, just eat what you want!’ Sarah helped me find the balance between those two extremes, and I ultimately was able to hit my health goals while still enjoying the less-nutritious food I love occasionally”

I have always had a difficult time holding myself accountable when it came to my diet. I constantly flipped between ‘I want to look good and lose weight’ and ‘You only live once, just eat what you want!’ Sarah helped me find the balance between those two extremes, and I ultimately was able to hit my health goals while still enjoying the less-nutritious food I love occasionally.

After working with Sarah for a few months, I now have valuable habits and tools I can use to keep myself accountable and remain happy and healthy in my own body. I also know that what Sarah taught me has led to lasting changes - the food habits I've formed are not a fad diet or tips to lose weight fast. They are small changes that are sustainable, even when life throws you curveballs.

I'm very thankful, not only for the weight loss goals Sarah has helped me to hit, but the way she made me feel like a success, even on weeks where the scale went up. She was always kind, and motivational, and never made you feel bad about anything.

The idea of weight loss is daunting. The idea of making permanent changes to your lifestyle is even more so. But Sarah helped me make those lifestyle changes, little by little, and I am so much more happy, comfortable, and confident because of that.


“While working with Victoria I was able to lose weight, keep it off, and learn about my body's natural hunger cues. I was also pleasantly surprised to see muscle definition due to upping my protein while exercising. I've never seen myself as an athletic person, so this was a huge win for me.”

Before working with the SWS team, I struggled with losing weight, keeping whatever weight I had lost off, and "yo yo" dieting. I chose to work with SWS's coaching because I wanted a kind approach to accountability. For example, I wanted to work with a team that would help me work towards my goals but would not be judgmental or unrealistic. As such, I was initially fearful of "messing up" or not hitting my goals. However, I could not have asked for a better coaching team. My coach, Victoria, always viewed my challenges with a positive lens and easily troubleshooted whatever challenge I was facing (i.e. stress about overeating during vacations, instances when I wasn't able to exercise, traveling, work-life stress, etc.)

While working with Victoria I was able to lose weight, keep it off, and learn about my body's natural hunger cues. I was also pleasantly surprised to see muscle definition due to upping my protein while exercising. I've never seen myself as an athletic person, so this was a huge win for me. Further, I started to receive compliments from my family members regarding my progress. 

I truly do feel that I am equipped with the tools to maintain my weight loss. Victoria gave great advice or suggestions about meal options to choose at restaurants, the importance of protein, and foods to eat that would help support my macro goals. I continue to use her advice daily. 


“Before signing up, I was nervous and afraid that this would be yet another approach that would not change anything and cost me money. I ended up losing 45 pounds with the SWS team!”

“Before signing up with Strong with Sarah, I had gotten to a place where I did not think I would ever be healthy again. I had made so many unhealthy decisions that I accepted my new lifestyle. I was struggling with how to approach getting out of my rut, but I knew that I was not going to do it on my own. 

I had attempted achieving a healthier lifestyle so many times on my own and always failed. I knew that an investment in SWS would encourage me to prioritize getting healthy and ensure assistance with consistency. I knew that I wanted to work with an internet based program because it felt like I could keep this aspect more personal until I was ready to be more vulnerable in person. I also knew that I needed a more personalized program for success because other programs without this had been a waste of time.

Before signing up, I was nervous and afraid that this would be yet another approach that would not change anything and cost me money. I underestimated the quality of the coaches and all of the different approaches this program includes. 

While working with Sarah and my accountability coach Britt, I was able to accomplish so much. My initial goal with SWS was “to be a healthier and more confident and comfortable person”. I far exceeded this goal with developing a new lifestyle that taught me how to prioritize my health. This not only has made life physically easier but has improved my relationships and career. I may have lost weight but I gained confidence that I never had. 

The changes in the SWS program can be personalized. For me, we kept my approaches so minimal that they were easily attainable. This allowed me to gain traction before adding more challenges to my approach. All while adjusting and adapting as we went. This approach, along with all of the educational materials, group calls, and tools on the app made consistency more attainable which was key to my success.

I chose the platinum program, and my one on one bi-weekly video check ins with Britt made the biggest impact. It gave me time to ensure that I was prioritizing my health and commitment to the program. It also seemed to always come at the perfect time. As soon as I started to get frustrated with my lack of focus, my coaching call would come and I reset.

I ended up losing 45 pounds with SWS. My weight loss was very steady and consistent but not my only focus. I stuck with the program and decided with my coach to adhere to weigh-ins and photos. This was never the most important aspect, but was a great way to visualize results that I did not always feel. It added a layer of commitment and vulnerability that I needed to achieve my goals. 

My life is different after working with my coach in the SWS program because I have acquired skills to not only maintain success but recognize when I need to make my healthy choices a priority. I also know that this program is available as I need it to reset, re-engage or achieve new goals.

I understand why someone may be hesitant to make an investment in a program like SWS. However, this investment gives you access to a program with proven success. The investment helped me make this program a priority which allowed me to achieve my goals. It is also a steal! The quality of the content and engagement with your coach, Sarah and other SWS members in addition to an exclusive app and personalized approach to help you achieve your goals is more valuable than the upfront cost. When I signed up, I committed myself to stick with it for a year. This allowed me to prioritize my health and make small changes over a long period of time. My new habits became a new way of life for me.”


“At the one-year mark I clocked in at 23lbs down, and several inches lost from my waist and hips. Long before that point though I had stopped caring as much about the number on the scale and started to care more about how I felt. I’m sleeping better, I’m more active, I am more confident in my clothes, and I am much happier with my lifestyle overall.”

I’ve always considered myself of average size. I’ve been somewhat active most of my life and ate how I considered (at the time) to be decent. I gained weight easily, but it never got too out of control. That was until I gained 30lbs over two years during graduate school and found myself at the heaviest I’ve ever been.

I had been living in denial until I saw pictures of myself at my best friend’s wedding and realized I had a big problem. I needed to do something. I started researching help that night. When I came across Sarah’s website, I just knew she was what I was looking for. I booked a call right away. Sarah just seemed so straight forward, no frills, nonjudgmental, relatable, and supportive.

We started working together in February of 2020. Well, we all know what happened just a few weeks later.

Over the past year during Covid, I have lost one job, switched to work from home for another, finished my master’s degree online, relocated across the country, started a different job, was diagnosed with a new food allergy, lost family members, and more. It was the least ideal time to work on my health…and it was the best time to work on my health.

Throughout it all Sarah was an anchor, reminding me to put my health first, focus on what I could control, and kept me accountable. It’s so hard to explain her method because it just seems like such a no-brainer! It’s just how we’re meant to live. We worked so incrementally that the process just built on itself and never felt overwhelming. I ended up creating habits before I even realized I had. We focused on remaining in a very realistic calorie deficit, eating more nutritious foods, and getting in some movement. We also talked a lot about mindset; mindful eating, recognizing stress/emotional eating, etc.

I never once felt deprived. Through the process I have gained such a healthier relationship with food. I no longer think in terms of “cheating” or “bad vs good”. I don’t feel guilt when I indulge, and I don’t subscribe to diet culture. At the one-year mark I clocked in at 23lbs down, and several inches lost from my waist and hips. Long before that point though I had stopped caring as much about the number on the scale and started to care more about how I felt. I’m sleeping better, I’m more active, I am more confident in my clothes, and I am much happier with my lifestyle overall.

Yes, I lost the weight which was my original goal. However, what I really walked away with were the tools to lead a happier and healthier lifestyle. Sarah is such a kindhearted, no-nonsense, guiding light-like getting tough love from a close friend! I sing her praises to everyone who asks, and I would genuinely recommend her and her team to anyone. Give her a call. You will not regret it!


Not only have I lost around 15 pounds but I have discovered so much about my relationship with food!

I have been working with Sarah for the past several months. Not only have I lost around 15 pounds but I have discovered so much about my relationship with food! Sarah supported me through uncovering my emotional blocks and thinking errors/traps. She also helped me focus on true lifestyle change rather then yo-yo dieting and black and white thinking. All of her trainings and phone calls where enlightening and motivating. On a personal note, Sarah is a understanding, warm, and fun person with a Dynamite personality! She is someone you would want to be friends with. You will LOVE working with her.


“Sarah has been the most amazing person to work with and gave me my life back. I will forever be grateful for Sarah. What I loved most about working with her is that she made this MY journey. She did not lump me in to a group of other women and men. Everything was tailored to me personally”

“When I first came to Sarah, I was at the heaviest I had ever been. I maintained my weight that fluctuated between 232 and 246 pounds, for over 3 years after my son’s birth. I had tried many different diets that just didn’t work for me and were never long lasting. I was at a complete loss and I knew I was desperate for help. I couldn’t find the will or motivation to get started. Prior to working with Sarah, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Psoriatic Arthritis, and Obesity. Wow, seeing “Obese” on my medical record was a HUGE wake up call. I cried for weeks and couldn’t go back to the doctor that labeled me as obese. I was devastated. From the Fibro and PA, I was constantly in pain and any activity took a toll on my body. A simple 30 minute park session with my son put me down for hours and in worse cases it put me down in to the next day. My knees and back would ache because I picked him up and played with him. I would be winded not even 5 minutes in to play and would have to stop and just walk around a bit while watching him play. I would constantly push myself just to be able to play with my kid. I was out of breath walking in to a store with a large parking lot. I was out of breath just doing household chores. 

When I met Sarah, I had a lot of misinformation about weight loss. I thought I needed to change every part of my life and live uncomfortably to be able to lose more than 10 pounds. I thought I had to drink fruit infused water, while completing a 21 day cleanse and only eating vegetables because fruit had too much sugar. Sarah taught me how to live a comfortable life, set boundaries with my eating, keep active, gain muscle and lose weight. This all happened while I was still drinking Starbucks (full sugar) twice a week, eating out once a week, and not restricting my coffee intake. I used the tools that Sarah provided me with and it forever changed my life. I am able to go out to eat with my friends and family and not feel uncomfortable with my food choices. I have the ability to go to a family gathering and know that it is okay to bring my own salad or any food I prefer to eat. I have the ability to enjoy my “happy meals” without guilt and be able to stop when I am 80% full. 

Sarah not only helped me with my fitness and nutrition but her tools helped me during a very tough time. While I was working with her, I was involved in a serious car accident; an accident that I was able to walk away from and recover so quickly, it impressed my doctor.  I can truly say if it wasn’t for Sarah being in my life, I would have never walked away from that accident with no broken legs and heal the way I did. After the accident I was able to use my knowledge with nutrition and not fall in to an emotional eating hole. I was able to maintaining a healthy diet and continue to lose weight, even though I was not able to work for out months after the accident. 

Hiring Sarah as my Personal Nutrition Coach has been the by far the absolute BEST thing I have done to better myself. Sarah has been the most amazing person to work with and gave me my life back. I will forever be grateful for Sarah. What I loved most about working with her is that she made this MY journey. She did not lump me in to a group of other women and men. Every check in was modified to MY weight loss and what I asked of her. If I wanted her Friday check-ins to be worded in a certain way, she would do it. If I asked her what potatoes were more beneficial for me, she would send me a PDF file on the benefits of all types of potatoes. She is so full of help full information and knowledge.

She made the experience so great and just an all-around wonderful experience. She made weight loss fun and I even set physical goals like run times and push-ups. I have never set one fitness goal in my life prior to my time with Sarah. Sarah is the right choice when it comes to a Personal Nutrition Coach. In fact, she had such an impact on my life that I am currently studying to become a Personal Nutrition Coach myself.”


“I lost 10 pounds working with Sarah, but more importantly I gained freedom around food that I did not think was possible.”

 

“Sarah has 100% changed my life. I was searching for yet another way that would help me lose weight when I came upon Sarah as a coach. I lost 10 pounds working with Sarah but more importantly I gained freedom around food that I did not think was possible.

I am so happy to have new habits that will work for the rest of my life and forever grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Sarah!”

 

“My life is completely different now. I lost 50 pounds working with Sarah and am the weight I was at 10 years ago in my early 20s!

I feel so much more confident now.”

 
Weight loss comparison
 

Before I started working with Sarah, I struggled to consistently make healthy decisions. I was either doing a strict diet like the Whole 30, or I was eating whatever I wanted without stepping on the scale and gradually gaining weight and going up in clothing sizes. I couldn't find a good balance that would help me to lose weight and still live life. 

On my 33rd birthday, I was the heaviest I’ve ever been, and I felt terrible! I made a pact with myself, “I will not feel this way on my 34th birthday.” It was then that I decided to make some big changes and I started working with Sarah the next week. I knew that I had a better chance at being successful working with Sarah verses other programs because she was going to keep me accountable. I needed to know I wasn’t alone in this journey.

When I first started working with Sarah, I appreciated that we first focused on establishing healthy habits over time, like eating slowly. Other programs start out with which foods you can and cannot eat, but Sarah really wanted me to focus on my behaviors. I never realized how fast I ate and I definitely was a big overeater because of that. I know my overeating definitely contributed to gaining weight over time.

I also realized that I didn’t have to be “all or nothing”. I could still go out and be social with friends and family and indulge in a glass of wine or dessert here and there – as long as I was practicing healthy habits MOST of the time. I learned that this was a lifestyle change and not a quick fix. It also was extremely encouraging that I was still losing weight those weeks I indulged a little bit more – because I was still making healthy choices too! 

The biggest impact on my life has been the shift in mindset. For me, losing weight was 100% about mindset. I realized that I could resist the cookies sitting in the kitchen at work, or the cake at a birthday party – and I would be okay. I didn’t NEED that food to feel happy or satisfied in that moment. I was going to save those indulgences for when it mattered more to me, like a date night with my husband, or at a friend’s wedding.

My life is completely different now. I lost 50 pounds in a year and am the weight I was at 10 years ago in my early 20s! I feel so much more confident now.

Losing weight and getting healthy has made me a better wife, mom, daughter, sister, friend, employee, and more! I’m so much more comfortable in my skin and can truly focus on enjoying life.

The tools I learned while losing the 50 pounds will definitely help me stay healthy in the long run. I know that as long as I consistently practice healthy habits I can maintain a healthy weight.  And if I slip up and make an unhealthy choice, I can pick right back up and practice a healthy lifestyle. Remember, it’s not all or nothing.

If you’re thinking about signing up for Sarah’s coaching, you might be scared to make the investment. But, think of everything you will GAIN by investing in yourself – health, confidence, happiness, accomplishment, and so much more. This is everything I have gained by working with Sarah and my life is forever changed.


“While working with Sarah, I lost roughly 30 pounds and I feel confident and energized!”

 
 

Working with Sarah has been life changing and I am so glad I took the step to work with her. 

Before working with Sarah, I thought I knew everything there was to know about weight loss and diets as I had tried so many.  I struggled with emotional eating, staying consistent, being patient with weight loss, and most importantly I was so uncomfortable in my skin and embarrassed with my eating habits.  I wanted to be a healthy person and model healthy behaviors for my family, and Sarah has invested her time and energy into my success and taught me how to be that healthy person I wanted to be. 

I decided to work with Sarah because she seemed extremely knowledgeable and nonjudgemental- and boy was I right.  I felt comfortable working with Sarah from day 1 because she created an environment that helped me be honest with her and myself about my daily habits and feelings.  Weight and body image were sensitive topics for me, but Sarah was respectful at all times and able to push me to be consistent and patient with myself and my body as I learned about how to become the healthy person I wanted to be.  While working with Sarah, I lost roughly 30 pounds and feel amazing! Sarah worked to hold me accountable for my actions and taught me strategies for holding myself accountable so I can continue to be successful without her. 

I am incredibly glad that I joined with Sarah, she is well worth it!  


“I loved working with the Strong with Sarah team!”

“I loved working with the Strong with Sarah team! They helped me kickstart my goals and the trainings she has are so so helpful!”


“If you’re reading this and are hesitant — make the leap.

Sarah will catch you and in six months you’ll never look back!”

 
 

“I thought to lose 30 pounds I would have to be super strict…

But nope! Just need to be consistent.”

 
 

“I can’t believe I’m down almost 15 pounds in 2 months.”

 
 

“It’s literally the perfect program!!”

 
 

5 months working together and down 22 pounds…

WITHOUT eliminating any foods or drinks!

“I lost 9 lbs. I feel freaking amazing… Junk food doesn’t even sound appealing”

 
 

I believe that my mindset shift has been the greatest accomplishment of working with Sarah, and the 23 pound weight loss was an added bonus.

 
 

I came to Sarah in the Fall because I was tired of being unhappy. I had transitioned from being a competitive athlete and had done all that I could to try and help myself lose the weight that I had gained over the course of a few years. In my eyes, weight loss seemed impossible and I wanted to feel like myself again.

Fast forward five months, and my life has completely changed in the best way possible. I believe that my mindset shift has been the greatest accomplishment, and the 20-something pound weight loss was an added bonus. I feel confident in my body, I have self-control around food, I know what foods are worth it to me when I want to indulge, and most importantly, I feel like myself again.

As I worked with Sarah, I was never afraid to be completely honest and open with her because I knew that there would be no judgement and she would only help me learn from my mistakes. The questions she asked me and techniques we used helped me to find the best way to sustainably accomplish my goals in order to FIT my lifestyle, not change it. The skills I have adopted will be useful for the rest of my life. Through all of the highs and lows of this journey, having someone there 24/7 to ask for help or celebrate wins with made all of the difference in accomplishing my goals.

To someone who is thinking about taking the step and making the investment: I cannot recommend Sarah and her coaching program enough. I know that asking for help can be hard but investing in yourself and your happiness is the best thing you can do, and you won’t regret it.


13 pounds down and 20 inches GONE!

“I was able to lose about 30lbs, drop 6 pant sizes and gain the self-confidence that I had been missing.

However, most importantly, I now feel such a sense of freedom knowing with certainty that I will never go back to those fad diets again because Sarah taught me fundamental lessons that I will be able to apply for the rest of my life.”

 
Weight loss comparison
 

Sarah was my coach for almost a year, and I can’t believe what a difference she has made in my life. Before working with Sarah, I found myself struggling with constant yo-yo dieting, having tried almost every fad diet around; Weight watchers, Nutrisystem, Keto, no sugar, shakes, intermittent fasting - you name it. While I would sometimes get results from these diets, they would never last. I could not figure out why until I started working with Sarah. She helped me to not only better understand nutrition and healthy habits, but also what was holding me back for all these years: my mindset.

Thanks to Sarah, I was able to recognize that you don’t need to eliminate any food or drinks or follow a super-restrictive diet to get results. I also learned how to bounce back from a less-nutritious day and the importance of recognizing signs of hunger. Her coaching showed me that you can still eat your favourite foods while seeing sustainable and long-lasting results. No more restrictions! Sarah’s guidance led me to grasp the importance of patience and consistency, along with being able to trust in myself to make the right decisions. It was evident that she wanted to see me succeed and provided the perfect balance of encouragement, support and tough love to get me there.

I was able to lose about 30lbs, drop 6 pant sizes and gain the self-confidence that I had been missing. However, most importantly, I now feel such a sense of freedom knowing with certainty that I will never go back to those fad diets again because she taught me fundamental lessons that I will be able to apply for the rest of my life. If there is anyone out there who, like me, has had an ongoing struggle with their weight and self-confidence and wants to put an end to the vicious dieting cycle, I would 100% recommend investing in accountability coaching with Sarah. It’s a life changing decision that you will not regret!


“Today I am wearing a pair of pants I bought a year go and never took the tags off because they were too tight.”

 
 

“I’m down another 1.5 pounds… 7 more pounds until I hit my 40 pound goal!”

 
 

“One of the most helpful lessons I learned from this program was that I don't need to cut calories drastically to lose weight - smaller but consistent changes really work!”

“Working with Sarah was great! One of the most helpful lessons I learned from this program was that I don't need to cut calories drastically to lose weight - smaller but consistent changes really work! In the past, I always thought that I had to cut calories drastically or go super low carb to lose weight, so of course I couldn't sustain those changes for very long and would throw in the towel. This program showed me that being consistent with smaller, realistic changes does yield results.”

"Sarah has helped get to the bottom of my eating habits, my exercise habits; helped dig in to determine why in the past I'd make bad choices with food... She's helped me get past my excuses."

Customer testimonial
  • "Participating in Sarah's program has been a complete and total game-changer for me. There's no magic formula or pill, no secret piece of information that will do the work or make the choices for me, but Sarah has given me the tools and the support to make better decisions that I can incorporate into my everyday life forever. It's amazing to look back to week one and think, I would have done this or would have eaten that and now it's a shift in how I think and feel. I've said to other people Sarah's program is not just about what I'm eating or how much I'm working out. Sarah has helped get to the bottom of my eating habits, my exercise habits; helped dig in to determine why in the past I'd make bad choices with food or not push myself at the gym...or just not work out in general. She's helped me get past the excuses and figure out how to live an overall healthier life. I feel better than I have in over a year, and I won't stop now thanks to Sarah!!!!" -- Jennifer


"All of the sudden I was like NO get your butt up and go to the gym.  So I did!"


After being in a terrible rut with weight loss and exercise, it was Sarah who helped unlock a program for me that really works.  In fact, with Sarah's coaching & support, I've lost 70 pounds since January.

  • "I have been working out with Sarah for several years. Sarah is that amazing combination of being a highly motivating personal trainer without ever being demoralizing or training by what some people would call "tough love". Instead, she takes time to really get to know her clients on a personal level to really understand their drivers and barriers and then develops programs that work for and with them--never a "one size fits all" approach. In fact, after being in a terrible rut with weight loss and exercise, it was Sarah who helped unlock a program for me that really works. In fact, with Sarah's coaching and support, I've lost 70 pounds since January 2016. Sarah is one of the most sincerely upbeat, positive people I know and she has boundless energy. Plus, she keeps up on the latest trends and information about nutrition and exercise. I can't say enough about Sarah, both as a coach and a compassionate and helpful human being. I'm so glad Sarah is in my life and helping me be a healthier person."  --Gayle

customer feedback
 

"Sarah tailors my personal workouts to me, she's enthusiastic and unfailingly encouraging.  She makes the workouts fun.  I can truly feel a difference."

"When I lose my balance these days, my legs don't move quickly enough to catch myself and down to the ground I go. I'll be 70yrs old in a couple weeks and eventually I'm gonna break something. Last year I did a full face-plant in the grocery store concrete parking lot. I thought I broke my chin. Looking at my black eye, scratched cheek, and the goose egg on my chin, I knew I had to do something. 

A word of mouth recommendation led me to Sarah. Since then, she's been working with me weekly on balance and agility. Late last year in Italy, I stumbled. Those cobblestone streets are charming in photos but deadly to walk on. I lost my balance, but I did not fall. I repeat, I caught myself and I DID NOT FALL. I was so excited I emailed Sarah immediately - who knows what time of day she received it.

Sarah tailors my personal workout to me, she's enthusiastic and unfailingly encouraging. She makes the workout fun. I can truly feel a difference. And I DID NOT FALL." --Marie D.


"I am seeing muscle definition and loving my new SELF!!!"


“I’m down 3 more pounds… A total of 6 pounds!”
