CONGRATS, JESSICA! I think I've lost track of how many CSE fitness challenges I've participated in...but my first one I did was in March 2019, and I've been hooked ever since! I had a baby earlier this year in February, and for me this journey has been totally a commitment...

CONGRATS, JENNIFER! I just completed my fourth consecutive Clean Simple Eats challenge and have lost 48 pounds. My success is about so much more than pounds lost, though. It is about creating a completely new mindset and finally feeling confident in my body because I am fueling it well and...

CONGRATS, JESSIE! Growing up I was always really super active and I didn’t ever watch what I was eating because I didn’t think I needed to. Fast forward a few years…I am now 25 years old and married with two kids. My first pregnancy was pretty good; I gained some...

CONGRATS, BLAKE! The most obvious way CSE has helped me is exactly what you can see. I started this challenge at 248 lbs., and as of today, I weigh 225 lbs. I lost 23 lbs. in 7 weeks! Being a former collegiate athlete and Division I football player, I used...

CONGRATS, GRAHAM!  Another season, another Clean Simple Eats challenge. For my wife and I, this is our 4th challenge in a row and our 5th overall. Since we have been fully committed to CSE and its wonderful program, the results have been amazing. Before we decided to do something about...

CONGRATS, ASHLEE! My name is Ashlee and I am 31 years old. I have 3 children, with the youngest being 9 months old. I love being a mom; my kids are amazing, but it has taken a toll on my mental and physical health. I did great after having my...

I’ve struggled with my weight and health most of my life. Anytime I wanted to lose weight, I always thought that I had to do a fad diet and run all the time. I’ve realized over the years that is not true. I’ve also suffered from Rheumatoid Arthritis since I...

This challenge was not my first rodeo with CSE, but it was the challenge I have had the most growth in. I have been with CSE for almost 3 years and have many foundational transformations that I will use to forge many more in my lifetime.  Up until this point,...

This is my second CSE challenge and the amount I’ve learned about fitness and nutrition is mind blowing. At the beginning of January, I needed to change my mindset surrounding fitness and nutrition. I (like everyone else) was living through a pandemic, I had lost a job I had for...

My story with CSE is a wild one. I first took part in the Spring 2019 Challenge following the traumatic experience of losing our son to a rare syndrome. After months of not particularly caring about our general health and trying to come to terms with what had happened, my...

As an 18-year-old kid, completely changing my lifestyle has been such a hard, but rewarding thing. I have always been so self-conscious about my appearance and my weight. It is something I have always had on my mind and something I wanted to change about myself, but I was never...

Two years ago I was eating ok and going to the gym regularly. Then we had our third child and it all fell apart. Then COVID came a year later and things got worse—worse eating, more stress, less exercise.  My wife has been following you and drinking your protein for...

As a mother of six and after a rough year, this challenge was just what I needed to change my life. I gave up on my health last year. I didn’t care how much weight I gained or how I felt. I was overwhelmed by what seemed like impossible demands...

Have been eating on plan since May. I have dropped about 40 lbs, and pant size 40 to 36. We have introduced your plan to many people also. Thanks for helping us trim up! At 65 years young, we have learned it’s never too late to change old eating habits...

To be honest, it was hard to get going after the holidays and during one of Chicago’s coldest and snowiest winters. This being my 4th challenge (the first one started in the beginning of the pandemic), I've learned it doesn't have to be perfect to feel stronger and healthier.  If...

I’m going to start with the moral of this story: Every person deserves to love the body they are in.  I have struggled with sugar cravings and binge eating for all of my life, and spent too much time stressing over how I looked physically. I even recall using my...
