Get Fit With Mer Program’s testimonials

This is the first time in my life that I can remember eating enough and feeling satiated throughout the day! With support of the GFWM program I have learned what feels good in my body, I feel balanced and never deprived. I have learned how to build muscle through strength training and enjoy it so much more than a strict cardio program. I am so thankful I took the step to take care of myself and have learned sustainable ways to do so! 💙

I’ve been overweight my whole life. I’ve always struggled with nutrition, what I should eat or how much I should eat. Everyone one on social media would say “ losing weight is easy. It’s all about nutrition and being in a calorie deficit” but I feel like that’s easier said than done. I really enjoy this program because not only is a meal plan specially made for me but I am able to discuss with my coach if I need to make any adjustments throughout the week. I really enjoy my one on one conversations with my coach because of the huge amount of support she gives me especially on my really low days were I’m feeling bad about myself or feel like I’m not making any progress. This program along with my coach have helped me realize the weight loss journey isn’t all about physical change but about mental change. It’s the mental change that I have made that has helped with my portion control. And yes indulge in some chocolate here and there but having the mental strength to not go overboard

I first stumbled across GFWM when I was only 15 years old. At the time, I was struggling with PCOS, insulin resistance, depression, and anxiety, and genuinely had no idea what to do or who to turn to. Then I found Coach Mer. I started watching her reels, reading her posts, and listening to her talk about her own journey, and for the first time, something just clicked. I remember constantly thinking, “That’s exactly what I go through,” or “That’s EXACTLY how I feel.” It felt like someone was finally putting into words things I had been struggling to understand myself. I wanted so, so badly to join GFWM, but because I was under 18, I couldn’t yet. So I waited. Now, three years later, I’m finally 18 and finally part of the program I had wanted to join since I was 15. And genuinely, I think my 15-year-old self is somewhere cheering me on right now. She would be so incredibly proud that I made it here. 🥹 The moment I joined GFWM, I felt like I had entered home. Coach Alana welcomed me with open arms and guided me through EVERYTHING. Her constant love, encouragement, and support have motivated me to keep trying even on the difficult days. And Coach Mer… I genuinely don’t know how to put into words the kind of woman she is. She is truly there for her clients. She understands because she has lived it. She is an incredible coach, an incredible human being, and, in so many ways, a healer. I genuinely cannot imagine going through this journey with anyone else. And the program itself is unlike anything I’ve tried before. GFWM adapts to YOUR life—you don’t have to rearrange your entire life to fit a program. Everything is customizable around your day-to-day schedule, and the app is incredibly organized, accessible, and easy to navigate. There are even videos and podcasts that get send to you which offer extra guidance, encouragement, and advice, not only about fitness and nutrition but about your mindset, learning to think more positively, and continuing to show up for yourself. What makes GFWM so special to me is that it doesn’t just feel like another fitness or nutrition program. It feels like entering a home filled with love. It’s a family and a community of people who understand. There is no judgment. There is guidance, encouragement, countless amounts of support, and so much love. I’m still battling PCOS and insulin resistance, and my journey is far from over. But for the first time in a long time, I feel genuinely motivated to keep going. GFWM has given me a motivation I haven’t found anywhere else, and I’m so excited to continue embarking on this journey, growing, learning, and thriving. To Coach Mer and Coach Alana: thank you for creating and being part of the safe space that 15-year-old me was desperately searching for. Three years later, she finally made it here. 🤍 And to anyone with PCOS who feels lost, misunderstood, or like they have to figure everything out alone: there is a community here that understands you. Joining GFWM isn’t just joining a program. To me, it was finally coming home. 🥹🤍

Love this! It’s like you know me😋 I totally over analyze and over inform myself and get the whole analysis paralysis thing! I was read a book awhile back about sleep before I went to bed and it messed with my sleep so much lol. It was such a bad idea. Now just focusing on the simple stuff. Shower, put phone away, read and sleep. I need that time away from my phone to fill my cup back up. I need that and I’m taking allot more seriously then I have in the past. Over information, no bueno lol. I love the logging walks and hikes as well! I think having those noted I can be like oh yea I am doing the things I need to better myself. And checking something off is so satisfying! I love having those receipts to show myself that. It’s the everyday stuff. I literally have been trying to lose weight for as long as I can remember and I’m ready for a different kind set. It just consumes so much daily energy and like what if that energy went to something else? Maybe I could have the energy and head space to like volunteer with animals or maybe help people who have been where I am. Life has just been so weight loss focused and I want to be able to use the energy and use towards hikes and fun things and living life instead of the all consuming weight loss beast lol. I finally feel mostly ready to let go of that part of my life. lol, as I typed that out my brain was like no you’re not! This is what we know and we are going to panic and self sabotage!

I found Mer on instagram after I was faced with weighing myself at a doctors apt. I knew I had gained weight, but when I was the number, it fell so disheartening. I weighed my max pregnancy weight. My entire life I was a “bigger girl”. through many diets and seasons of life, I had been in great shape, and fallen out of shape. i’d done every diet imaginable, and have always yo-yo-d. but after two pregnancies and the business of life, it really caught up with me. I always thought I had it figured out, that “I knew what to do I just need to do it”. if only it were that easy. Meredith’s program is like having a little cheerleader in your pocket. My coach, Zands, takes into account my life, and alters/sets goals that are realistic. I signed up for 18 months. I like that this process is not about restriction, but actually challenging you to change you lifestyle in a way that I anticipate with be the LAST TIME I LOSE THIS WEIGHT!!!! But really, it’s awesome having another person thinking about this with me and for me.

I am so grateful I stumbled upon Mer on Instagram. I looked into the GFWM program and thought it would be the perfect fit for me. And I was so right! I felt instantly welcomed and supported by Mer, coach Alyssa, and the incredible community that comes along with it. This program isn't a quick fix or fad. It's to make viable lifestyle changes for the better and learn the WHY you're doing something. I had to lose about 100 lbs, and had already lost 50 lbs before joining but had stalled for about a year. I was so frustrated and all the programs and products I was trying and the endless Google searches weren't helping me get any further on my weight loss journey. I felt stuck and felt like giving up and thought maybe this is where I was supposed to be for the rest of my life. Until I was up late one night scrolling on Instagram and came across Mer and her story. Her energy and her story reminded me of myself. So naturally, I started deep diving into her Instagram and she seemed like such a real, honest person so I decided to get more information about her actual program. The questions you get asked from the beginning give them so much information to learn about YOU, it gave me hope that maybe this actually could work for me! Since making the decision to join, I have found that the communication, support, and workouts are amazing, and meal plans are delicious. And let me tell you.... I am a picky eater and they still find meals for me! This has been customized to me and my very busy life and is able to change as my life has different factors happening. I have lost an additional 10 lbs since I have joined, my mental health has improved, and I can't begin to say how much knowledge of health, fitness, and overall lifestyle changes I have learned along the way. I understand more of why I am doing things, how I can continue to succeed, and actually make it fit to MY life. I highly recommend this program!

The first thing I want to say is that I thank God every day for putting Coach Mer and Zands on my path! After years of struggling with my weight, I finally feel like I found my people. I was doomscrooling (like we tend to do) feeling sorry for myself. I had been looking at another program that looked promising, but I didn't feel that click. It was EXPENSIVE and I needed to feel like it was a great fit if I was going to spend that kind of money. Plus, she had always been fit. I needed someone who understood what I've been through... and there was Coach Mer. That first video I saw had me in tears... ugly tears! I was skeptical at first because "I've tried it all and nothing has ever worked" but I decided to go for it. I could always have my call with Taylor and decide it wasn't for me. That was not the case. I signed up right then and there! It's only been a month and a half and I've already seen changes in my attitude and my habits. I love the fact that it's not only about weight loss, but about a whole life transformation. I feel more confident and standing up for myself more. I'm also more aware of what I'm putting into my body and being more intentional. It feels GOOD and for the first time in my life I'm proud of myself for this commitment.

I love how realistic and doable the GFWM program is. The meal plan fits into my life, and I’ve learned that consistency matters more than being perfect. I feel stronger, more confident, and actually look forward to working out and trying the new meal plans every month. I also love the variety and the guidance—it takes the guesswork out of what to do and makes it easy to stay consistent. I feel good and seeing results. It has definitely been worth the investment for me!

Before joining GFWM I literally had no idea what I was doing and was so frustrated that I was not losing weight. I tried different diets, different influencer workout routines, etc. and this cycle went on for YEARS. Then one day I finally had enough. I knew something had to change. I had seen Coach Mer on instagram and I was so inspired by what she was able to achieve and maintain. That is when I decided to take that leap of faith and join the program. Honestly, the best decision I EVER MADE. Soon after starting this program I found out I was pregnant and was so afraid I wouldn’t make any progress. I was able to build muscle and gain minimal weight all while having a healthy pregnancy. Now that I’m 7 months postpartum I’m down 62 pounds since giving birth and 42 pounds since my starting weight from when I joined the program. It’s absolutely incredible what I have been able to achieve through this program. I’ve also had so much support from my AMAZING coach Alana and love knowing that I also have support from the community of women that are also on their own health journeys too. I’ve learned not only what life balance is, but I’ve also developed a way healthier relationship with food. So incredibly thankful for this program. Worth every penny. Thank you thank you so much!

I have been “on my health journey” for I don’t even know how long now. Late night doomscrolling I came across Coach Mer’s page and I instantly felt connected. She was like me. She looked like me. If she could do it, maybe I could too. I’ve always known how to “eat well” but I have some hormonal issues that I just couldn’t figure out. I tried working with our local wellness center through the hospital…but that registered dietitian had me eating 1350 cals a day and completely eliminating dairy and gluten. Y’all I was MISERABLE which led to total binging sprees. I knew something had to change. I knew what I was doing on their recommendation was not right. Enter Get Fit With Mer. While I’ve only been in the program for about 2 months now, I am losing inches. My decision fatigue on workouts and meals is gone. I have more energy! I am feeling all around better! I love having the weekly check ins to keep me accountable. And I love being able to chat with Coach Mer and Coach Alyssa as often as I want! I feel wholly supported with them! Yes, it’s an investment, but HONEY YOU’RE WORTH IT!!

I chose this program because I was struggling to understand what nutrition and a healthy lifestyle looked like for me. I was overwhelmed with doomscrolling and I found Coach Mer’s story and I said let me just try it and I am loving how simple and easy but the accountability and coaching has been exactly what I wanted. The meal plans are easy and simple and I can adjust them accordingly.

Get Fit With Mer has been a game changer for me! I love that my workouts and meal plans are made for me. I don’t have to think. It makes sticking to my goals so much easier. I also enjoy having a coach to chat with each day about my wins and also my struggles. It feels good to have someone that’s always in my corner. While this program is an investment, I truly believe there is no better investment than your health! If you’re willing to put in the time and the work, the Get Fit With Mer program can help change your life!

For me, weight has been deeply intertwined with chronic illness and my mental health. I had begun to feel like maybe the things I deal with are just too complicated for someone to be willing and able to help me, let alone for me to be able to help myself. I’ve followed Mer for years and seeing the consistency in her character and love for the people she serves was a big factor in finally taking the step to ask for help. If there was any program that might fit my specific needs, it was going to be GFWM and I’m so glad I took a chance on myself. GFWM is unique because every aspect of the program is tailored to your wholistic well being. Mer and her team of coaches are far more interested in helping people learn how to care for their bodies and create sustainable routines tailored to their needs than they are interested in seeing the scale change on any set timeline. They are always willing to grow and adapt with you because life and health are unpredictable. My journey so has been primarily mental and I wouldn’t have made it this far without the transparency, support and accountability I’ve received from my coaches. Their kindness towards me has been life changing because it gives me the courage to be kind to myself. My weight loss journey is not limited to the number on the scale, it is now based in the believe that I deserve to live a better life where I fuel and take care of my body. The numbers don’t mean nearly as much to me as the evidence I’ve gathered that I am capable of showing up for myself in every aspect of my life. The trust I’m building in myself is the most valuable thing that’s come from investing in GFWM.

I honestly don’t even know where to begin when it comes to thanking Bri and Mer. ❤️ My weight-loss journey has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever committed to, and having these two by my side made such a huge difference. They provided me with meals, workouts, guidance, encouragement, and most importantly, so much support every step of the way. They understood that this journey isn’t always easy. There were good days, hard days, days I felt motivated, and days I wanted to give up. But they never made me feel like I was doing it alone. They believed in me even when I struggled to believe in myself. Looking back at the progress I’ve made in just one year, I am honestly blown away. 🥹❤️ I’m not only grateful for the physical changes, but for the confidence, discipline, strength, and mindset I’ve gained along the way. Bri and Mer, thank you for being patient with me, pushing me when I needed it, encouraging me when I needed it most, and reminding me that progress is progress—even when it doesn’t happen overnight. I will forever be grateful that I chose to take this journey with you both. Thank you for helping me become a stronger, healthier, and more confident version of myself. ❤️ One year of progress, countless lessons, and a lifetime of gratitude. 🥹💪🏼 If you’re thinking about starting your own journey, I truly can’t recommend Bri and Mer enough. They don’t just give you a plan—they genuinely care about YOU. ❤️

GFWM has vastly improved my relationship with my health and wellbeing. The largest contributing factor to that, of course, is my coach Zands. I couldn’t be happier that we were placed together, and one year in, she’s still my biggest cheerleader. She’s kind, smart, witty, and able to easily switch between tough love and gentle encouragement depending on what the situation calls for. I have a tendency to go radio silent for a few days at a time, but Coach Zands checks in on me every day or two with either a nudge or an anecdote from her own health journey to provide perspective and inspiration. In general, she has a wealth of information and is more than happy to share it, always in ways that are easy to understand and engage with. If I’ve got a question, Coach Zands gives me a detailed answer that I have never once thought was lacking. She’s also so good at using what she knows to adapt to my preferences, especially when it comes to my nutrition program. I hate being in the kitchen more than absolutely necessary, so Coach Zands finds recipes for me that are quick and easy to prep while still staying within my macros. They’re also all right on point when it comes to the things I like and dislike, and if I ever tell her I’m craving a meal with a specific ingredient or flavor profile, she has no problem sending me the perfect answer to my prayer. And when it comes to my exercise program, I only recently switched from working out primarily at home to now at the gym, but she has had no problem providing me with workouts and guidance for either location. Coach Zands really has changed my life. I’m not where I want to be yet, but as she’s taught me, I’m building the habits and consistency that will help me enormously in the long run. My mindset around my health has improved thanks to her, and I’m so grateful that I’ll continue to have her in my corner!

I have absolutely nothing bad to say about my coaching time with Baby! She’s such a delight and easy to talk to!!! When I have a request for something really specific she always responds with “I got you!” She’s so sweet and the greatest coach! Although the monthly pricing is a little pricey, I haven’t been at the weight that I’m at since before I was pregnant almost 4 years ago! Thank you so much Baby!

Before joining GFWM, I struggled for years feeling alone, burnt out, and hopeless when it came to reaching my fitness/health goals. I had never worked with a coach before, and I swear I tried every "diet" out there. Of course, none of them worked because they just weren't sustainable. I've now been in GFWM for almost a year, and I can confidently say: this is the place to be. I've never experienced so much love, encouragement, and support throughout a fitness journey. While I'm still working toward my goals, I know I'm exactly where I need to be. The assistant coaches—huge shoutout to Olivia and Alana—and of course Mer, are some of the most caring, genuine, and supportive women I've ever met. They inspire me every single day and are always there when I need guidance or encouragement. One of my favorite things about this program is that they don't just care about your nutrition and fitness—they truly care about you. They're rooting for your success in every area of your life, and that kind of support is so rare. The community itself is also incredible. It's filled with the most uplifting, kind, and supportive people, and Mer has created such a beautiful space for all of us to grow, learn, and become stronger together. If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or afraid to take the first step toward your goals, let this be your sign. Do it for you. I truly couldn't recommend GFWM enough. Thank you to the entire GFWM team for changing my life. ❤️

I used to debate whether a GLP-1 was the right choice for me. Back in March, my blood work showed I was borderline diabetic, had a fatty liver, and was significantly overweight. My doctor urged me to change my diet and start exercising. Balancing that with work and two small kids felt like a challenge, but I knew God was calling me to get healthy for my family. I decided to join GFWM to kick off my journey and stay accountable. Since starting in May, Coach Mer and Coach Alana have been incredible. They’ve given me quick 30-minute workouts and simple meals that work for both me and my family. It was challenging at first but with the help of my coach I’ve learned how to track my macros and build healthy habits! I recently had a follow-up appointment, and my doctor was so proud of my progress since March. My blood work improved dramatically! When I shared my frustration about slow weight loss and my debate over starting a GLP-1, he reassured me that my steady weight loss is actually the healthiest way to go. Seeing those results was the answered prayer I needed to confirm I’m on the right track without medication. I’m ready to double down on my nutrition and training, and I can’t wait to see where I’m at in another 3 months! 💪🏼✨

Starting get fit with MER has been life changing! I’ve always struggled with my weight and relationship with food but getting to work alongside Assistant Coach Alana has been a game changer in my journey. Having someone to check in with and gently push me to dig deeper on my I have certain narratives around my body and food has helped me ground to my intention of my health journey. I’ve been able to find my reasons for sticking to eating healthy and moving my body. It’s fun to celebrate showing up for myself with coach Alana and to see other women doing the same in the community. I feel like this program has helped me be more intentional, consistent and patient in my health journey. I would recommend this program to anyone looking to improve their life!!

Before the program I was dealing with an inflamed gut, bloat, felt uncomfortable in my body almost daily and always seemed like I could never reach true progress. I was even still healing/rebuilding leg strength from surgery months prior. When I found Coach Mer on Instagram, I listened to so many of her videos and her podcast. I felt connected with her, felt her realness and also, she understood what it’s like to deal with H. Pylori bacteria! I was so excited to start and work closely with Mer and my assistant coach Alana. My coach really listened to what foods aren’t good for my gut and put together recipes that were simple, tasty, and satisfied my hunger, which is awesome! The workouts she catered to my ability and needs while still healing from surgery. I had daily encouragement and guidance thru my mindsets, discussions on how to be intentional, still enjoy life but also keep a balance. In just ONE MONTH, I have lost inches, gained muscle, feeling better in my body, and have not felt such a happy gut in years! An even greater win for me is the leg strength. My leg was so weakened after surgery that, even after 2 months of PT, I still was only halfway to normal. It held me back in work and life. But in a single month on the program, I feel almost fully normal! I can walk full stride, move with much more ease on rough terrain for work, gained so much balance and currently working on building my jog stride! I cannot thank Coach Mer and Alana enough, and it’s only been a single month on this journey!

Let me start by saying weight-loss has been something I’ve thought about for more than half of my life. I’ve tried every diet there is out there and all have put me in worse shape than when I started. I’ve never had the support or simply someone care enough to actually show me how to take care of my body until I joined Mers program. Coach mer and coach Alana have changed my life far beyond what weight-loss could achieve. They help me keep promises to myself and never let me give up. The way this program moves with you and adapts to every stage in life you’re going through is what really makes this journey a lot easier. There’s no pressure to be perfect. Just lessons and habits that are going to help me live a longer and healthier life. I’m so beyond grateful for the constant support this family gives me. ❤️ Would choose GFWM over and over again.
