The Beginning- Get to Know Me
Hello, I'm Stacie, the proud owner of Snatched by Stacie! The birth of Snatched is deeply rooted in my personal journey, and this page marks the beginning of that transformative adventure.
My decision to open up about my life before diving into the world of training stems from a series of significant life events. At the age of twenty, fresh into marriage and expecting my first child, I faced the heartbreak of my first miscarriage upon moving to Hawaii. The subsequent emotional turmoil led me to a dark place where I stopped eating and rapidly lost weight. Overcoming this period was a tough climb, but I eventually found my way back to a healthier state, both physically and emotionally.
Two years later, the hopeful anticipation of pregnancy turned into another heartbreaking episode – my first ectopic pregnancy. The dreams of motherhood seemed to be slipping away. Despite the devastation, I summoned the strength to pick myself up, keeping my dreams tucked away, and decided it was time to leave Hawaii, returning to my home state of Georgia.
The "Who am I" profile picture captures a significant transformation between 2014 and 2015, showcasing my journey from being out of shape, battling uncontrolled asthma and severe eczema, to the woman standing before you today. Endless visits to doctors resulted in prescriptions for various steroids, allergy pills, and nasal sprays, none of which worked and only added to my weight gain. Determined to reclaim my health, I had to make a change.
This wasn't my first encounter with health struggles. As a child, I underwent weekly allergy shots and adhered to a strict diet for an entire year. While the regimen led to clearer skin and improved health, it left me too skinny. A visit to my childhood doctor, armed with a prescription for a miraculous cream, worked wonders within weeks. This time around, I revamped my eating habits and embarked on a journey of hard work and dedication to regain control of my body and health.
The after picture on the "Who am I" profile is a testament to the resilience and commitment that defines my journey. Join me as I share my experiences, triumphs, and the lessons learned along the way. This is more than a fitness journey; it's a celebration of overcoming obstacles, reclaiming health, and inspiring others to do the same. 💖✨
