Success Story: An Introduction

I’m SUPER excited to introduce Bent Fork Nutrition’s very first success story!

As many of you know, adopting healthier lifestyle habits or making any sort of lifestyle change is a challenge! There are many bumps along the road, sometimes we fall off the wagon and other times we learn lessons that are worth sharing! If you’re like me, I love learning and being inspired by people’s path to wellness! Whether it be in a magazine or on a reality TV show, I love seeing a person’s transformation, how they did it and their tips for success! That is why I am honored and excited to share with you, our very first success story participant!
