I’m Really Scared About Failing Again

Every time I try a new diet or workout plan, I give it my all, but it never seems to work. My family just rolls their eyes when I start talking about my new plan.

They say things like:

• "Here we go again. Don’t get your hopes up."

It hurts so much. My friends don’t invite me to their workout sessions anymore.

They tell me:

• "We knew you’d give up. Maybe fitness isn’t your thing."

Even my husband gets frustrated:

• "I thought you were serious this time. Why do you keep doing this to yourself?"

It makes me feel so alone.

I Worry About What People Think

Sometimes, I worry that people think I’m obsessed with my weight.

My family says:

• "Why are you so obsessed with losing weight? We love you as you are."

They keep offering me unhealthy foods, not realizing how important this is to me.

My friends tease me when I make healthy choices:

• "Are you really going to eat that? I thought you were on a diet."

It’s so embarrassing. My husband doesn’t seem to care about my progress:

• "I don’t see why you need to change. Are you trying to impress someone?"

It feels like no one understands or supports me.

I Fear Losing Myself

I also worry that losing weight will change who I am.

My family says:

• "You’ve changed. You’re not the fun mom we used to know."

My friends say:

• "You’re so different now. We miss the old you."

Even my husband tells me:

• "I fell in love with you the way you were. Now I’m not so sure."

It breaks my heart to think that my changes are pushing them away.

Unwanted Attention Makes Me Nervous

I get nervous about getting unwanted attention too.

My family asks:

• "Why are you dressing differently? Who are you trying to impress?"

My friends say:

• "You’re just doing this for attention."

Even my husband seems jealous:

• "You seem to be enjoying all this new attention a little too much."

It’s so stressful.

My Biggest Fear: Gaining the Weight Back

But my biggest fear is gaining the weight back.

My family says:

• "Here we go again. We knew this wouldn’t last."

My friends joke:

• "Well, it was fun while it lasted. Back to square one, huh?"

Even my husband says:

• "I can’t believe we’re doing this again. Do you even care?"

It makes me feel like I’m all alone in this struggle.

It Was Family Picture Day

I’d been dreading it for weeks. Everyone else was excited, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that I’d somehow ruin it.

I tried to dress nicely, picking a blouse that covered everything I hated about myself, but nothing could hide it.

I was the biggest one there. And I knew it.

Lined Up for the Photo

The photographer lined us up, and I got stuck in the back.

“Tallest in the back!” they said, but I knew it wasn’t just my height.

It was because they needed to hide me.

I smiled, but it felt fake.

The Picture That Broke Me

When the pictures came back, I couldn’t even look at them.

But my mom posted one anyway. She tagged me.

I begged her not to, but she just laughed and said,
“You look fine!”

Then the comments started.

“Beautiful family!” someone wrote.

I scrolled, feeling a little relief.

But then I saw it.

“Who’s the big one in the back?”

My stomach dropped. That was me.

Brushed Off Again

My mom brushed it off, saying,
“Ignore the trolls.”

But I couldn’t.

I untagged myself, but not before I saw my cousin reply with a laughing emoji.

It wasn’t just strangers.

It was family.

Rock Bottom

I hit rock bottom later that week at another family dinner.

My sister showed the photo again, joking,
“They really got your best side!”

Everyone laughed.

EVERYONE!!

I wanted to disappear.

That night, alone in my room, I stared at the mirror, thinking,

“This is who I’ve become.”

And I hated myself.

✅ I could give up and pretend it didn’t matter, but deep down, I knew I’d keep spiraling, hiding from cameras, mirrors, and myself.

✅ I could confront the problem head-on, but every past attempt had left me more broken, embarrassed, and stuck.

✅ Or I could commit to finding a new way—a way that didn’t make me feel like a failure every step of the way. It wouldn’t be easy, but I was done feeling ashamed. I chose to fight for myself, no matter how long it took, because I deserve better.

The Sacrifice of Enjoyable Food

I cut out carbs, sugar, and just about anything that made food enjoyable.

At first, the weight started coming off, and I thought,
“This is it. This is what I’ve been missing.”

But then the hunger kicked in.

I’d wake up tired, irritated, and constantly thinking about food.

Small Victories, Big Losses

Every time I said no to a slice of pizza or skipped dessert at family gatherings, it felt like a small victory—

—but also like I was losing pieces of myself.

The Breaking Point

Then, one bad day hit, and I caved.

I ate everything I’d been denying myself, and the shame afterward was unbearable.

The diet wasn’t just hard—it was impossible to keep up.

Losing Control

I’d lost a few pounds, but I felt like I’d lost control of my life.

Worse, when I quit, the weight came back—and then some.

Feeling Like a Failure

Extreme dieting didn’t just fail; it made me feel like I was failing.

Every slip-up felt like proof that I’d never be strong enough to make this work.

It left me more frustrated, more ashamed, and back at square one.

So, I signed up and threw myself into it, but it wasn’t long before my body started screaming at me—aching joints, pulled muscles, exhaustion.

Instead of feeling stronger, I felt broken. 

Worse, when I couldn’t keep up, I felt like I’d failed all over again.

And you know what?

I ended up quitting, feeling more ashamed than when I started.

Those programs are built for people who are already fit—not someone like me.

When quick fix solutions became my last resort, I was desperate. I’d tried everything else—extreme diets, workouts that left me broken—and nothing worked.

At first, it seemed like something was happening. 

The scale moved a little, and I thought, “Finally, this is it.” 

But it wasn’t real.

The weight came back the moment I stopped the tea or the pills, and the waist trainer? It just hurt.

I’d spent so much money and gotten nowhere.

I even considered surgery. But the cost, the risks—it terrified me. 

And honestly, I knew deep down that none of this was fixing the real problem.

By then, I felt completely hopeless. Nothing worked. I wasn’t just failing—I felt like I was the failure.

A Voice of Understanding

She was plus-size too, and when she spoke to me, it wasn’t with pity or judgment—it was with understanding.

She told me:
“I’ve been where you are. I know what it feels like to feel stuck, ashamed, and like nothing works. But I also know it doesn’t have to be that way.”

The Problem Wasn’t Me

Diane explained that the problem wasn’t me—it was the methods I’d been using.

She said the extreme diets, grueling workouts, and quick fixes were setting me up to fail because they weren’t made for women like us.

Then, she offered a small piece of advice to try—a tiny shift in how I approached eating and moving.

“Give this a shot,” she said. “If it works, come back to me.”

A Tiny Shift, Big Changes

I tried it.

For the first time, I didn’t feel like I was battling my body.

I wasn’t starving or exhausted, and yet, things started to change.

Slowly, but they changed.

A Total Transformation

I went back to Diane, and over the next few months, she helped me completely transform—not just my body, but how I saw myself.

Everything was going well—better than I ever thought possible. 

• My clothes were fitting looser. 
• I had more energy.
• And for the first time, I wasn’t dreading my reflection in the mirror.

Diane’s advice wasn’t just working; it was changing my life. 

The Birthday Party That Changed Everything

It was my sister’s birthday, and she decided to throw a big party.

Cake, cocktails, and all my favorite comfort foods were on the table.

And of course, everyone was there—friends, family, even my mom, who never stopped dropping hints about how much she “loved the old me.”

The comments started almost as soon as I walked in:

• “Oh wow, look at you! Are you even eating these days?”
• “You better not get too skinny—we won’t recognize you!”

It felt like all eyes were on me, waiting for me to fail.

Choosing a Different Path

The old me would have caved, grabbing a slice of cake just to shut them up.

But this time, I didn’t.

Instead of falling back into my old patterns, I leaned on everything Diane had taught me.

I listened to my body, made choices I felt good about, and didn’t let their comments derail me.

A Breakthrough Moment

When the party ended, I realized something incredible:

• I didn’t feel deprived.
• I didn’t feel like I’d missed out.
• I felt proud.

That was my breakthrough moment.

I’d faced my biggest hurdle yet—the fear of judgment, temptation, and being misunderstood—and come out the other side stronger, confident, and in control.

Thriving, Not Just Surviving

I wasn’t just surviving anymore.

I was thriving.

The transformation felt like a dream come true. I wasn’t just losing weight—I was gaining my life back.

• My energy was higher.
• My confidence was through the roof.
• For the first time, I felt proud of the person staring back at me in the mirror.

Every aspect of my life improved:

• I played with my kids without getting winded.
• I went to family events without dreading the photos.
• The gym? It became a place I didn’t fear but embraced.

The Birth of 90 Shine

That’s when Diane told me she’d been working on something special.

She called it 90 Shine—a 90-day fitness and weight loss challenge designed specifically for plus-size women.

Everything that helped me succeed was in there:

• The methods.
• The mindset shifts.
• The compassionate accountability.

Diane’s 25 years of experience and her unique perspective as a plus-size trainer made it unlike anything else out there.

Life-Changing Results

To make sure it was as life-changing for others as it was for me, Diane shared 90 Shine with a small group of women first.

The results were nothing short of incredible.

Word spread quickly, and soon, hundreds of women joined the challenge, eager to experience the same transformation.

The testimonials started pouring in—stories of women regaining control, confidence, and joy in their lives.

It was overwhelming and inspiring to see how many lives were being changed.

Let’s face it: those one-size-fits-all plans never actually fit, do they? That’s why we do things differently. This challenge is about creating a rhythm that works for your body, your life, and your goals—not someone else’s idea of “perfect.”

Mark Your Calendar: We Start January 13!

Starting January 13, we’ll embark on 90 days of transformation together. Every participant will be moving forward at the same time, cheering each other on, and celebrating every win along the way.

There’s no going it alone here. You’ll have the structure, the support, and the community to make these 90 days your most empowering yet!

Why Does It Work?

Here’s the secret: We keep it real.

• Instead of forcing your body into a mold, we focus on finding what works for you—whether that’s starting with 7 minutes of movement a day, tackling emotional roadblocks, or making meals you actually enjoy (no weird fad diets here).

• We blend the science of sustainable progress with a huge dose of encouragement, because progress should feel lighter, faster, and honestly...more fun.

And the best part? You’ll have a community of women who get it cheering you on every step of the way.

This isn’t about extremes or all-or-nothing thinking. It’s about finding your confidence, your strength, and your version of success—and actually enjoying the process.

When you join the 90 Shine Challenge, you’re not just signing up for a program—you’re stepping into a new way of living. Here’s everything waiting for you:

Access to the 90 Shine Vault—think of this as your go-to toolbox for success:

Daily Support & Structure: Each day, you’ll focus on simple, feel-good habits like moving your body (even for just 7 minutes), staying hydrated, and taking a moment to reflect with a quick journal prompt to keep you grounded and on track. It’s all about creating small, manageable habits that add up to big wins!

Community That Gets It: Connect with other women who understand the journey, cheer you on, and celebrate your wins—big and small.

A Clear 90-Day Plan: The challenge is split into three phases, so you’ll know exactly what to focus on

• Spark (Days 1-30): Build simple habits and find your rhythm.
• Ignite (Days 31-60): Strengthen your consistency and confidence.
• Radiate Days 61-90): Solidify your progress and push yourself to shine even brighter. 

You slip on a pair of jeans you haven’t touched in years—and they fit like a glove. The mirror doesn’t make you cringe anymore. Instead, you smile, because you finally see what you’ve been working for.

You walk into social gatherings with your head high, knowing people aren’t whispering or judging—they’re noticing the confident, happy you. Every step you take feels like freedom, because you’ve found a way to lose weight and get fit without feeling like you’re sacrificing everything.

Now picture the opposite . . . 

Another year passes, and you’re still stuck. The gym still feels terrifying. Family photos still feel like punishment. Nights lying awake, wondering why nothing ever works, still haunt you. It’s exhausting, and I know you’re tired of it.

Here’s the deal: I don’t want that for you. I’ve been there, and that’s why I created 90 Shine, the 90-day challenge that’s changing everything for plus-size women like us.

Normally, this program is $297, and honestly? It’s worth every penny.

But today, I’m offering it for just $97 because…

1. I know what it feels like to hesitate over price, and I refuse to let money hold you back.
2. The more women who join, the stronger we become. We’re building a community that lifts each other up.

Before training with Diane, I had very little confidence. I was previously very successful at weight loss, losing over 80 lbs. and maintaining for over 3 years. Due to some personal issues, I put back all the weight I had lost. I felt defeated, like a total failure. 

The workout was challenging, but not impossible. Diane understands the unique challenges of her clients, and tailors the workout accordingly to move your fitness level forward.

I now work out with Diane 2x a week. I have gone down 50 lbs. and 5 dress sizes. I found a love for exercise that I never felt before, it has truly become a part of my life. - Sandra B. 

My weight has been a struggle for me ever since the doctor told my mom that I needed to join Weight Watchers at the age of 10.  Over a 12-month period, with Diane as my fitness coach and personal trainer, plus continuing with altering my diet, I was able to lose 75 lbs! I now weigh in at 125 and can fit into a size 4! - Elisabeth W. 

Diane has helped me understand that becoming healthier does not mean surrendering who you are or your curves. She does not preach about dieting and exercising to lose weight but she does explain in the fullest details what it takes for a lifestyle change for overall optimal wellness.  Diane guides with patience and compassion.

I have found in Diane what I could never find in other trainers and that is that she understands the special needs of a person according to their level of strength and lifestyle. - Lynx G. 

You wake up a few months from now feeling completely transformed. You step into your closet, and instead of dreading the clothes that don’t fit, you feel excited to wear something you haven’t felt confident in for years. You glance in the mirror and smile—not because you’re perfect, but because you feel proud, strong, and finally in control of your life.

At family gatherings, you’re no longer the one avoiding the camera. You’re laughing, posing, and creating memories without a second thought about how you look. Social events aren’t stressful anymore—you walk in confident, knowing you belong. Every step you take feels lighter, freer, and full of possibility.

I have been struggling with my weight for years. I've had really mean trainers who instead of motivated me, completely intimidated me out of the gym. She's got a level of understanding and compassion that surprisingly very few trainers seem to have. I actually look forward to waking up and working out!

I was approaching my 30th birthday and knew that I wasn't happy with my body and that I needed to make a change. I found Diane and she has changed my life! She is motivating and supportive instead of cruel and discouraging.- Charlotte W. 

I hired Diane on a trial run: 'I’ll try one session, if I don’t like it I won’t go back', I told myself. I have been consistent ever since that first time. I started out with a limp and a brace on my left knee. After a few months I took off that knee brace and have not worn it since. Now I bounce up flights of subway steps instead of dragging myself up. - Kaaron S.
