Most people don’t fail because they don’t know what to do.
They fail because they try to change their body without changing their baseline. And the truth is, they won’t reach their goals without changing the systems, the identity, and the way they operate when life gets loud.
Kristi’s story is what it looks like when the journey actually sticks.
This is not a 30-day sprint or a “new me” burst of motivation. It’s a full-year transformation, followed by the part most people never reach: maintenance, recovery, and recomposition.
The Decision
Kristi joined Supra Human because her husband did.
When he told her about the program, her immediate reaction was fear of failure. She’d been through the cycle before. Lose weight. Gain it back. Start over. Repeat.
But there was another truth sitting underneath it all. If this worked for him and she stayed the same, she didn’t want to watch life move forward without her.
So, she said yes. She didn’t trust herself yet, but she trusted the structure. This wasn’t just another diet. It was a full system built to handle her real life.
The Foundation
When Kristi started in April 2024, she was 167.8 pounds and exhausted from inconsistency.
Her coach, Britt, didn’t overhaul her life overnight. They built the base.
It started with small, but meaningful changes.
- Reasonable calories instead of a drastic cut
- Protein first
- Daily steps
- Simple strength work
Early on, Kristi said something that defined the journey, she was tired of putting herself last. She wanted to feel strong, clear-headed, and capable of finishing what she started.
That’s where the work actually began.
Momentum, Not Motivation
One of the quiet accelerators for her is that she wasn’t doing this alone. Her and her husband held each other accountable just as much as their coaches did.
Morning walks became non-negotiable. Travel stopped being an excuse and started being a problem to solve. Restaurants weren’t avoided. They were navigated.
The work stopped feeling emotional and started feeling normal.
Just six months in, Kristi was down over 30 pounds. But more importantly, she wasn’t trying anymore. This was just her way of life.
That’s when fat loss stopped being the win and a shift in her identity took over.
The Real Test
The hardest part didn’t come during the cut. It came after.
Calories increased. The scale fluctuated. Old fears resurfaced. Kristi had rebounded before and knew how fast trust could unravel.
What kept her steady wasn’t willpower. It was communication.
She checked in every week. She talked through travel, stress, emotional eating, and uncertainty instead of disappearing when things weren’t perfect. Britt coached her as a sounding board, not a scoreboard, and that made all the difference.
This is where most people quit quietly. Kristi stayed in the conversation.
Strength Changes Everything
Now over fourteen months in, Kristi weighs more than her leanest point, yet she’s stronger, leaner, and more athletic than ever.
She’s building muscle on purpose. Tracking performance. Lifting heavier. Moving with confidence. She turned 50 and feels capable instead of cautious.
This phase didn’t happen by accident. It happened because maintenance was treated as a skill, not an ending.
She didn’t stop when the scale looked good. She kept building because she trusted herself, her coach, and that there was even more she could accomplish.
What She Learned
Kristi doesn’t claim perfection. She claims awareness and progress.
Food isn’t the enemy. The scale is just a tool. Progress isn’t linear, but it is earned.
Her advice to someone starting is simple: keep going, trust the process, and focus on the whole picture. Not just weight, but how you live, move, recover, and show up.
This wasn’t just a before-and-after.
It was a new operating system.
