We Were Tired of Starting Over, Too.

Lost 300 lbs. Built BetterChoices. Helping others do the same.

Before we lost over 300 pounds together, we were doing what most people do, starting over every Monday, hoping a new diet or plan would finally stick.

It didn’t. Not until we stopped chasing quick fixes and started making better, consistent choices that worked in real life.

We built BetterChoices for Black women just like us, tired of the guilt, the restriction, and the pressure to be perfect. Our story is proof that real, sustainable change is possible—with the right plan, the right support, and the right mindset.

Real Women. Real Wins.
Real BetterChoices.

From weight loss to mindset shifts, these women are proof
that small, BetterChoices create big change.
