Starting Point: The Struggles That Led to Change
Olivia’s health journey began with a host of debilitating issues and chronic pain, that were slowly taking over her life. At 5’2” and 143 lbs, she found herself struggling with a BMI of 23.6, creeping into the overweight category. Her blood glucose levels fluctuated between 100-126, and her Dr. Boz Ratio (DBR) sat at a concerning 346.
But numbers were just part of the problem. Olivia dealt with persistent belly fat, high liver panel numbers, visceral fat accumulation, low bone density, and muscle loss. Her blood pressure climbed dangerously high, reaching a crisis point of over 200/100, landing her in the emergency room. Doctors were pressuring her to start medication, but she knew she needed a better solution.
On top of these issues, she suffered from plantar fasciitis, sciatica, osteopenia, diverticulosis, fatty liver, arthritic pain in her wrists and knees, severe hair loss, low libido, brain fog, swollen hands and feet, chronic insomnia, and intense anxiety. Even her nails had become brittle, and her gums bled during cleanings. She was in a downward spiral and desperately needed a change.
The Transformation: Taking Back Her Health
When Olivia discovered the ketogenic lifestyle and joined Tammie’s support group, everything changed. She embraced the principles of metabolic healing, making radical shifts in her diet and lifestyle that led to a stunning transformation. The connections made in the support group have been priceless on this journey.

The Impact of Coaching: A Community of Support
Although Olivia didn’t formally enroll as a student in Tammie’s coaching program, she has been an active member of the support group since 2019. She later took the 21-Day Metabolic Kick and specifically requested Tammie as her coach, knowing she would gain invaluable wisdom and guidance.
“Tammie’s ability to convey the importance of this way of eating and living is both inspiring and invaluable. Her expertise, ease of teaching, and professionalism are unmatched. And Lance? He and Tammie make an incredible team. Without their guidance, my journey would have been much more difficult.”
The support and accountability from the coaching community kept Olivia consistent and motivated. She now lifts weights consistently, jumps rope, sprints, takes long walks, and volunteers to help others discover this way of eating.

“If you want to learn from the best, invest in yourself and join Tammie’s coaching classes and support group. You will see and feel the benefits. I could not have done this without Tammie and Lance. They are like family—always ready to help and support you.”
