I am a sucker for health click bait. Not necessarily because I think it’s going to work, but because I like to see what kind of content is being put out there that I will more than likely have to give a differing perspective to a friend or client at some point.

Today’s guest is one of those stories that don’t necessarily make headlines, but deserves all the clicks and claps and praise. My guest Stephanie Lueras lost over 200 pounds by taking one small, realistic step after another. It’s not exciting, it’s not sexy, and it probably won’t end up on apple news headlines, but this is the kind of story that needs more attention.

Now, Stephanie Lueras is a pastor-turned-body-positive personal trainer, fitness nutrition specialist, international best-selling author, and speaker that empowers people to achieve their fitness and wellness goals, no matter the starting point.  She uses the same holistic goal setting model that aided her success of losing those 200lbs without the use of commercial dieting with her clients to assist them in reaching their dreams and removing the barriers that crop up along the way.
