Here I found a community of friends to turn to who not only provided daily support but also answered my questions and held me accountable. Now I'm returning the favor for new members. The group is full of people like me who are walking the walk and living the life, offering inspiration and direction to each other every day.
Plus, for even more motivation, a few times a year BioTRUST sponsors free weight-loss challenges for the group where you can win an all-expenses-paid trip for two to Hawaii and other cash and prizes. This really got me motivated! More on that later…
#3: I found a great plan. Within the VIP community, I found out everything I was doing before was all wrong. Fortunately, professional BioTRUST coaches, like Coach Cristina and Coach Tim, provided me with a plan to help get me from where I was, to where I wanted to be. All at no cost.
They helped me put together a simple eating and activity program to follow that fit into my busy schedule. It took out all the guesswork out of my day and finally got me on track, so I knew exactly what to do and when.
I learned that one of the biggest things I was doing wrong was not getting enough protein in my diet. I was eating "healthy" foods, but they were low in protein so my internal "fat-burning engine" was running out of gasoline, and I wasn't burning calories like I should.
I needed over 125 grams of protein a day, but I was getting only half of that. My body was starving for the right kind of protein. That's why Coach Tim suggested I have 24 grams of protein right when I wake up in the morning. He pointed to scientific studies that showed this would get my metabolism going so I'd burn more calories all day long. He also said that having protein for breakfast would keep my "hunger hormones" in check and I'd feel full and satisfied longer. And boy was he right! Before I'd eat carbs for breakfast like fruit, toast, cereal, or breakfast bars… and I'd be hungry an hour later. But not anymore!
Good and Bad Protein—There's a Difference
I had tried inexpensive protein products in the past, and let's be honest, they tasted chalky and smelled like an old barn, and they even upset my stomach. A lot of them used cheap proteins or were soy based, which was a big no-no for my body and actually made me gain weight!
But when I was recommended BioTRUST Low Carb protein, it made all the difference. When I started consuming this quality protein, my once "slow" metabolism started burning more fat and calories, and the added protein helped rebuild and reshape my body after exercise. I even noticed improvements in the tightness of my skin on the backs of my legs, butt, and on the backside of my once-flabby arms! Can I get an "amen" girls!
My days are busy, to say the least, so getting enough protein, especially in the mornings, was a big issue. I'm often on the go and don't have the time to shop for, prepare, and clean up after every single meal. BioTRUST Low Carb has been a godsend because it's such an easy, convenient way to get top-notch protein. Plus, it gives me the energy I need to make it through my most hectic days—restoring log cabins at work.
This premium protein powder takes just 30 seconds to whip into a creamy smoothie and is packed full of nutrition. Now I'm no health blogger, so here's what BioTRUST's website says about Low Carb:
- Reduce cravings for unhealthy foods—both day and night
- Manage your appetite so you feel "full and satisfied" longer
- Build calorie-burning lean muscle
- Increase your metabolism

Each smoothie provides:

Wow, that is all a mouthful! The bottom line is that BioTRUST Low Carb is really the best protein money can buy because it's like getting four premium proteins in one product—all without the chemicals and junk found in most brands.
Can you believe many supposedly "healthy" protein powders in stores and online are secretly full of hormones, antibiotics, and so much artificial junk it will make your head spin? What a scam. It boils my blood! But fortunately, BioTRUST is different.
I've found that if I drink one of these high-quality, high-protein smoothies for breakfast in the morning, my nutrition is set for the day. I feel amazing, my cravings are controlled, and my metabolism is stoked to burn calories like a raging campfire.
It really is true that what you eat for breakfast is a key to how much energy you're going to have... how much you're going to get done... and how healthy (or not) you're going to eat for the rest of the day.
Getting enough protein is also key to how great your skin is going to look in the mirror every day when you wake up... how healthy your immune system will be... and frankly… how long and how well you're going to live your life. My mom was amazed how healthy I looked. She said, "Usually, when people lose that much weight so quickly, they just look older and sicker. But you look younger and healthy!"
Make this ONE COMMITMENT to yourself—to have a healthy, clean, high-protein breakfast every day—and you can look forward to a world of difference in how your body looks and in the daily energy you feel. I wish I'd have known about this simple tip years ago. I would have avoided all that mental pain and emotional suffering that caused all that emotional overeating.
And you may be quite surprised at how quickly you enjoy these changes. I know I was!
Most days I also added another Low Carb protein smoothie later in the evening, before bed. I used to either go to bed hungry and dream about food, or I'd eat the wrong foods at night, undoing the healthy choices I had made during the day. (Ever done this?)
But I learned that eating before bed is NOT bad at all if you have the right kind of food. So many people believe that doing so will expand their waistlines, but that is simply NOT true. Having a clean, high-protein food like BioTRUST Low Carb at night can HELP reshape your body and even increase your metabolism… while you sleep.
But to be honest, the real reason I have a Low Carb smoothie at night after dinner is because that's typically when I crave a sweet snack. And a little ice and Low Carb tastes like such a cool, creamy milkshake that I have to slap my husband's hand away when he tries to sneak a taste.
I'm often asked what my favorite flavor is, and that's a tough one because I love them all. Vanilla tastes like cake batter and is a good base for making all kinds of recipes. Chocolate Peanut Butter is like a dessert. But Milk Chocolate is my favorite flavor in the winter because I like to make it into hot chocolate. I just add a little less water to make it richer and then use hot water or milk.
Another favorite flavor is Café Mocha. It mixes really well with my morning coffee. There's no need for cream or anything else. I seriously enjoy it more than a fancy gourmet coffee—and it's such a simple, nutritious way to add 24 grams of protein to my coffee and start the day without a bunch of unwanted sugar and calories.
Because I'm on the run so much, I typically mix my protein with just water with a shaker bottle… no need for a blender—I keep it super simple. Others like to mix it with almond milk or skim milk, which is fine, too. No matter how busy I am, I never have to worry about skipping a meal, getting hungry, feeling weak, or having my energy crash because I didn't have "time." Now breakfast is a breeze.
In addition to my two Low Carb smoothies a day, Coach Cristina had me eating two healthy whole food meals as well. I imagine a dinner plate divided into thirds and in the first section I'll have a lean piece of grilled or baked beef, chicken, or fish. In the second section, I'll have a sweet potato (or you could have rice), and in the third section will be a vegetable like asparagus, green beans, or a salad with healthy dressing. It was simple! I could even eat like this out at a restaurant.
When I have the time and want to switch things up, I also use BioTRUST Low Carb to make protein-packed versions of waffles, pancakes, and muffins. My husband loves these recipes and so do friends and family.
Then about once a week, I also have a pre-planned "cheat meal" where I truly indulge. My favorite meal is going out for a juicy steak with blue cheese on it, some warm bread and butter, a big baked potato with all the fixings, all followed by an ice cream sundae for dessert. I learned that it's okay to cheat once a week so your body doesn't go into starvation mode and stop burning calories.
Super Savings on BioTRUST Low Carb
I paid full price for my BioTRUST Low Carb, and for me, it was worth every penny and then some. Heck, I'd have paid ten times the price for the results I got, not to mention the value I get from the free coaching and support I get daily.
Speaking of results, I want to help more people do what I did so I reached out to Josh the CEO of BioTRUST and asked if I could offer some of my friends and family a special deal on Low Carb. He told me they'd do me one better and if I wanted to share my inspirational story, he'd make a special offer for everyone this week. We both want to empower folks to get started, and we don't want price to hold you back.
