Case Study: How Julie Broke Records And Found Success With MacroFactor
Julie, a 55-year-old physical therapist and professor from Montana, used MacroFactor to unlock her strength and dive into the world of powerlifting after years of facing challenges with activity and nutrition.
“My biggest win since starting MacroFactor has been the ability to change my relationship with food,” Julie said. “Instead of seeing foods as ‘good’ or ‘bad’, or feeling like I had to completely eliminate types of foods or food groups, I felt like I had more conscious control over my decisions by reviewing all of the tracking data in the MF app.”
Check out her case study to learn more about Julie’s success and how she broke records with MacroFactor.
Success Story: Kevin Palomares
Kevin is a 32-year old father of two who decided it was time to lose some weight.
Kevin needed a little bit of help figuring out the nuts and bolts of losing weight. MacroFactor was there to help him out.
“I was at a loss. I didn’t know what to do anymore. I knew HOW to lose weight, but the actual nuts and bolts escaped me. And then a friend of mine suggested MacroFactor. He even found me a referral code for a two-week trial. By the end of the first week I was hooked. By the end of the second week I realized I couldn’t get by without it.”
