I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Carrie Cross fitoverfifty.us as my macro coach. Working with her has truly been a game-changer in my fitness journey.

What I love about Carrie is her ability to create individualized plans. My schedule was all over the place! Carrie took the time each week and developed a plan suited just for me and my busy life. She doesn’t believe in a one-size-fits-all. Instead, she takes the time to listen, assess, and develop a customized program that considers our lifestyle, preferences, and any health concerns. This level of personal attention has been instrumental in my success and has kept me motivated and accountable. (And losing inches!)

Today I am strong tomorrow I will be stronger.

Thank you Carrie for everything you have done for me. Xo

I’m 63 years old and decided I needed to get back in the gym and make my health and body a priority. I hit it hard in the gym 5 days a week, lifting weights and doing 30 minutes on the treadmill for 8 months and seeing little progress. I kept hearing ‘you can’t out-train a bad diet’, so I started the keto diet and that didn’t do anything for me. I was hungry because I tried to stay at 1200 calories a day thinking that would finally show me some results.

Then I was told I need to count my macros so I entered my information on a free website to give me my daily nutrients and it was so frustrating because I didn’t have a clue, so I quit after a few weeks. I didnt even know where to begin with the proper diet. Then I was given a suggestion to follow fitoverfifty.us on Instagram so I immediately went to Coach Carrie’s page and listened to her videos and read some of her post. I was so impressed that I reached out to her that day!

I officially started working with Coach Carrie on May 1, 2023. I’m in the gym 5 days a week following the workout routine provided by her and ensuring I’m getting in 10k steps or more. Coach Carrie is teaching me what it means to track my macros and to make healthy food choices.

Yes, I’m seeing results! I have lost 3.5 inches in my waist, 2 inches in my legs, and additional inches all over my body. I’ve gone down one size in my clothes! I’m eating 1,704 calories at this stage with the correct mix of carbs, fat and protein. I’m so motivated to finally see results and Coach Carrie is teaching me how to be successful and to not let the scale define me.

I’m at the beginning of my journey with Coach Carrie and I’m so thankful to be on the Wisdom Fit team because there is nothing stopping me now! Bring on that 64th birthday because age is just a number!

I have been with Carrie since September 2022 and signed up when I was in the throes of pre-menopause/menopause, feeling quite out of sorts and dissatisfied with my body composition. Instead of a diet/cut, Carrie suggested moving up my calories with a reverse diet and as a result, I have not felt better in years. I am no longer obsessed with my next meal, my lifts feel great, my sleep is amazing and my digestion has not been this good in years. Carrie understands each and every emotion and feeling because she has been there herself. She is a mom, an employee, an entrepreneur, a partner, and a professional in everything she does. I have 100% trust in her process and know that the work we have put in will pay off in the coming months.

After years of trying so many different fad diets and ready to start yet another, I felt stuck, sluggish, tired and to be honest, didn’t feel really good about myself. Since working with Carrie, I’ve completely changed my mindset around food, and can’t believe I’ve actually lost over 20 pounds while eating so many more calories!   Now I’m full of energy, strength, and confidence in how I look, the way I carry myself, and how I feel overall. I can without a doubt say there is no way I could have done this on my own. The coaching, support, accountability, and inspiration from Carrie, plus, as she would say, my hard work, is paying off.  Finally, after all these years, I’ve been able to get off the damaging diet cycle and quick fix remedies that don’t work. This is a forever change and a new lifestyle filled with great food and activity. No more looking back to my old unsuccessful days, just walking ahead to better, brighter, and stronger years ahead.

Thank You, Coach Carrie.

I’ve been a personal trainer for 30 years, but at almost 60 I had lost some of my drive. Carrie and I competed in fitness competitions together over 25 years ago so when I saw what she was doing online I said to myself, ” Wouldn’t it be nice to have what you give your clients?” You get burned out after 30 years of planning everyone else’s fitness! For my gift to myself for my 60th I hired Carrie! And I’m so glad I did! Just having accountability made me work harder! And her knowledge of nutrition made it so easy! I am reaching my goals and exceeding them!! Sometimes even a trainer with years of experience needs a trainer to stay accountable to and keep her on track! Best gift I ever gave myself!!

Choosing Carrie as my coach was a no brainer. Ive known her for about 25 plus years. Ive been with her since the beginning of her business and I can appreciate her dedication to not only her business but her clients. She has the willingness to get real with you when she knows youre maybe not showing up as you should. She holds you accountable for what you want and will remind you of that. I’m currently eating in maintenance and I’m loving the freedom I have and I feel like I finally have a comfortable relationship with food and my body. Thank you so much Carrie!!

I’m 53 and started with Carrie in June 2022. I’ve gone back and forth mentally about spending money on a trainer. It was the best decision of my life!! I use to run marathons & triathlons, was super fit about 15-20 years ago. Each time I tried to get back in shape it was a total yoyo process – with undereating then overeating, quick fix pills… All the while thinking I got this well I clearly didn’t.  By early 2022 I was the biggest and most unhealthy that I’d ever been. My knees and hips hurt so bad, I coul not do a squat, lunges or even a child’s pose.
I’ve followed and loved Carries Instagram for a few years now. Going into having her as my trainer, I was mentally prepared for a year of dedication to my health. Each week we meet on zoom talk about the week before and plan for the following week. I look forward to these calls. Its a personalized meeting that includes great tips for helping me reach my goals. We talk about everything from menu ideas & exercises to cellulite, skincare & time management. I love the training app too. Its easy to use and one of my favorite things to do is go back and read my training notes to see how weak I was to where I am now.
One year in Ive lost a solid 25 lbs [182 to 157] and I feel healthy. The time really did fly by. I love being able to wear old clothes from the back of my closet. Plus I have these beautiful muscles! Im wearing shorts in public and may never wear sleeves again lol. My hips and knees feel so much better. I can do lunges and a FULL squat with weights. I feel like a warrior in the gym such a huge amount of confidence. Carrie was FUNDIMENTAL to my results. And Im not done!!! Looking forward to year 2 not only to slim down a little more but I totally enjoy the healthy lifestyle.
