Wow, what a ride. This may be the first time in my adult life that I really prioritized my health for an extended period of time. My friends, family, and doctor have expressed to me how proud they are of me. And I am so proud of myself. Coach Michelene and my fellow Bikini Fit Baddies have helped me change the course of my life. Left to my own devices, I was headed for a life of rapid aging, weakness, and laziness. 90 days later, I am stronger, more disciplined, and I feel like an athlete. My experience was not perfect, and most of us had a major life challenge at some point. This journey taught me that I don’t have to be perfect, but consistency will give me the life, health, and body of my dreams! I am sooooo grateful to Coach for her wisdom and accountability. I feel a special connection to other ladies because we all walked through this together. I will take these lessons and habits and hold them dear to my heart, as I continue to better myself. Many MANY thanks to Coach Michelene. I can’t thank you enough! 🙌🏿🥲🥳

WHAT A JOURNEY! Michelene has given me my life back and for this, I will be eternally grateful.

1. Sense of wellbeing and the need for more energy. My kids need a Mom that is ready to have fun.This mom has been tired, depleted, and totally unmotivated to do anything.
2. Weight loss and increased confidence. I have struggled with my weight since childhood and need to find a balanced and sustainable lifestyle.
I cannot let this continue to rule my life. I need to be free from this once and for all.
3. Strengthen my Mindset. Reconnect with self and rediscover parts of me that have been missing and suppressed.
4. The world and these times are becoming increasingly uncertain. In order to stay above water, I will need to be stronger in mind, body, and soul.
This journey will help build my strength and resilience.
5. This journey is far more than losing weight for me. I need this journey to bring me back to life again. I have tried by myself for over 2 years now and cannot seem to do this alone. I trust with the support of this group and guidance and the "tough love" from Michelene, I will get there.
It has taken a lot to get to the point of wanting to make the changes….. now I am ready!
-
I'm breezing through the fasting days. It almost feels that the refeed days arrive faster and faster as we go along.
I am focusing more on the “Blessing of Eating”, the “Taste”.. the “Smell” etc., as opposed to "how much"...
-
While the purpose of joining the coaching group was to lose weight, I have ended up walking away with so much more! As a result of Michelene's thorough and professional coaching I have found a new love for exercise, I am off my antidepressant medication, I have not felt this motivated and sure of myself and my ability to achieve my goal in years. I am benefiting so much from the coaching that I have decided to commit to another month. If I had not taken the step to sign-up, I would hate to know where I would be now,….. probably still fat, tired, and depressed. Thank you Michelene - you have transformed my life in just 30 days.
-
Hi, fellow Snakers! My name is Lauren and I am from Sunny South Africa. This is my second month with Michelene and all I can say is, WOW!
-
My love for exercise and movement has grown. I have gone from a depressed, lazy, and "feel sorry for myself" attitude to that of discipline, commitment, and strength. I now have a love for exercise and my outdoor walks. I look forward to each “LIVE” workout session with Michelene within her Ka-Pow Body studio.
Michelene's coaching is first class. I love that everything runs smoothly and that I can always count on consistency and predictability - all this has improved my own discipline along the way. I have managed to let go of toxic relationships, bad habits, limiting beliefs, and loads of fat. I have gained new habits, formed a new identity, improved my fitness and so much more. I’m going to prove to myself that I can achieve the unimaginable and push my boundaries. I am still in awe that I have actually managed to reach my goals. There is something extraordinary about Michelene's coaching and the KA-POW lifestyle! Having tried almost every type of program out there, nothing comes close to her protocols and method of coaching. There is no way I'll be going back to the old me.
-
Michelene's Maintenance Program was an absolute breeze and I am happy to say that I am confidently maintaining my goal weight. My lifestyle has made a complete 180 degree turn around and I am so grateful for Michelene’s guidance and support. I could not have asked for a better coach.
Thank you Michelene for always believing in me, for your unwavering support, and for setting a good example.
Thank you for a life-changing journey Michelene.

Hi my name is Davina
I joined with Michelene because this body does not fit who I am and where I am going. It doesn't match what I’ve created in every other area of my life. I specifically wanted to work with Michelene because I am an all or nothing person. I wanted to see results quickly and I trusted that she was the person to lead me in this way! I desired the accountability and the record she has of being able to help people like me!
30 Days, that's how long it took to build Discipline and Self-Confidence in an area that I had almost zero. Losing weight was my kryptonite. In other areas of my life, I've been able to create what I wanted, but in this area, I felt so stuck. I would try to on my own, and cave right after hitting a 48hr Fast.
I couldn't figure out why my disciple didn't translate into health and fitness.
VIP Members Group was full of people who chose to focus on building something positive in their own lives; the group accountability and leadership with Michelene, changed it all for me.
I'm not to my goal yet, but the difference now is I believe I can get there. Seeing what happened in 30 days has left me feeling more and more possibilities! What else can I do in 30 days, in all areas of my life! It has redefined time and focus for me.
What I know for sure is I am continuing with Michelene!
The power of a damn good coach is real!!

MY WHY
Why I joined the VIP Snakers Group: My name is Cameron and I’m from Texas. I will be 30 years old in November. This is my third round doing VIP Snakers. Last year, for the first round I lost 30.6 (only gained back 10) and went on to lose 26 more pounds for the second round. My initial start weight was 191.6lbs and I hit my initial goal of 145lbs with Michelene’s coaching. Unfortunately, I fell into some of my old habits over my birthday and the holidays. Now I’m back! I am ready to get back on track
with fasting, Ka-Pow Workouts and clean re-feeds, because I remember how much better I felt living the Ka-POW lifestyle.

This group of strong women gave me nothing but encouragement and radiating positivity each and every day.
I am very proud and thankful for what I accomplished here considering I am in the middle of a move to a different city. My cortisol levels were high at times and my sleep was affected. The lovely lavender Epsom salt baths, encouraged by Michelene helped me to cope with the stress in a healthy detoxifying way. My major victory for this month was having my friend/neighbor notice how good I looked while I was out powerwalking. My petite, fit friend was moving out of her apartment and asked me if I wanted any of her old clothes, she was getting rid of. To my shock was able to wear her size small pants and shirts! I filled 3 paper grocery sacks with her old cute skirts, mini dresses and crop tops. As I pack up my own belongings for my move, I am throwing away all of my oversized, big clothes.
Maintenance Coaching Program by Michelene, is my only option now and I am looking forward to it!

I've done it! The maintenance program is key in learning to maintain my new set weight point. The coaching, weekly accountability & guidance from Michelene on how to balance fats and carbs and eating window helped me to experiment and find what works best for my body. Another amazing point: I had so much energy throughout maintenance and have started to include more fun forms of exercise to challenge myself further, but I will always carry the
KA-POW Maintenance Principal of staying in my "playground"

My "Why"
I never had to worry about my weight and I always ate healthily and worked out religiously. I played sports all my life and still do.
About 3 years ago out of nowhere, I noticed that I had gained weight even though I was still eating pretty healthy and working out 5 days a week. This is where my weight loss journey took a turn for the worst. I first thought to go to my physician so i could wrap my head around how I gained this weight. I was told to just eat less as I was probably pre-menopausal. That started the downward spiral of trying almost every diet out there known to man. Needless to say, they didn't work and I started to research other outlets.
I found Michelene on YouTube and stalked her for about a year or so before I got the courage to put myself out there and set myself on a more positive path. I want to feel better about myself, my choices, and my mental health. I don't want to have to constantly think about food and how it has negatively impacted my life. I want to have a healthy relationship with food and most importantly myself. I know I can do this and I know I will succeed. I just needed to find the right person to get me there.
-
I have always found it difficult to lose weight. I would start a diet lose a couple pounds then fall off the wagon and start all over again. When I found Michelene and her program I was astounded at the transformation's others were having in their weight loss journeys. I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to pull it off but took a leap of faith and l'm so glad I did. Not only have I lost the weight but I see how mentally strong I can be. I have never fasted for extended periods of time and although it can be challenging it's the best thing I could have done for my body. I feel in control of my food choices and I wake up well-rested nearly every morning Another bonus that came along with this journey was that my body aches have diminished almost entirely. My mood has improved and my clothes fit better. Something that surprised me was the friendships I have made through this short journey. I feel connected to the KA-POW community and I will always be thankful for that. I feel I now have the confidence to carry on with this lifestyle going forward. I can't thank Michelene enough for her dedication to helping me and others. I will forever use these tools going forward
Eat to live; control over comfort; calm over stress; focus over feelings; health is wealth.
The Ka-Pow BODY Coaching Studio
Just want to let everyone know that since losing the first 15 lbs. with Michelene I can actually pull my foot behind my leg to get a quad stretch which I could not do before! These Ka-Pow BODY workouts are fun and challenging, but also very informative. When I go to the gym, the instructors rarely correct your posture or don't tell you to correct things you are doing wrong in group fitness classes. Mich does a fantastic job of getting you into the correct positions so you get the most out of your workout! Thanks to Michelene and her Ka-Pow Coaching Platforms!

This is my 3rd and last (for now) group journey. I've had great success in my journeys where I built evening routines and learned how to relax & unwind. I didn't realize all the stress I naturally carried because it was a norm for me. In addition, i leaned that all the traditional methods of working out and macros were adding even more stress and depleting my hormones.
I gained a lot of clarity & energy as I let go of weight. The benefits that come from fasting are incredible and it's helped me to reset my gut biodome and hormones.
I've incorporated many of the tools into my lifestyle and I'm 15 lbs away from my goal weight raised_hands Haha, at least today I am laughing I've been able to maintain the weight loss and I feel better inside and out.
This journey will accomplish my physical, mental, spiritual and emotional (energy, moods, etc) goals and I get to do it with m sister & friends heartpulse

Going in an unknown of a 30 day maintenance journey with Michelene was exciting and uncertain.
Uncertain because I didn't know what the program would look like and exciting because I know Michelene knows her shit.
I'm so glad that I invested the time in doing this for my health. I learned so much more about:
° Creating a playground giving me flexibility
° How to eat
° What to eat (which food combinations pair and don't pair)
° How and when to bring alcohol back
° Knowledge about supplements
• Maximizing workouts
° How to maintain
Losing weight is the easiest part, maintaining is a skill and this program leveled up my skillset.
Each journey I learn more knowledge about the process and about myself & my body.
It's amazing how powerful we can self heal with selfcare and self love. By taking 13 purposeful days and pouring into myself, I know my internal health is functioning at her best. I have so many non-scale victories with losing 3.9% body fat, body composition transformation, mental strength, identifying what evening routines that work for lifestyle and developing deeper relationships with those in the journey.
It's powerful how 13 days can transform and undo the years of damage we've done living the standard American diet
These journeys are life changing, thank you

I'm so proud to be finishing my 3rd journey
Each time I learn more about myself, my thoughts & my habits.

All resulting in shedding over 30 lbs L According to my In Body, my body fat dropped tremendously and I was able to retain my muscle mass.

Hi My name is Monica. I am from the Us. I’m 50 years old.
My first journey:Just after 14 days coached by Michelene Adamo I feel the transformation inside and out, and down 17 lbs. I was a fitness competitor and after stepping away from the competition stage I ended up with a destroyed metabolism, weakened adrenal glands, messed up hormones, insulin resistance, and gained weight I just couldn’t drop. I have struggled for over 2 years to lose the visceral fat around my waist and get my healthier , leaner self back . In addition, I’ve struggled with intense sugar, caffeine, and food addiction and emotional eating. Michelene is precise, direct, specific and with her guidance, and her twice a day accountability was exactly what I needed in order to kick my addictions to the curb and gain major empowerment and motivation. Each day I saw at least 1-2 lbs loss. That kept me going! I dealt with some minor detox symptoms (headache and muscle tightness) but was able to push through and found after a couple days, I had no hunger and plenty of energy. I’ve been afraid to do dry fasts, but, with Michelene’s coaching it has been a breeze. Not scary at all and super effective. My skin issues with sebaceous pores and oily skin is clear! the allover texture of my skin has changed. My addictions are gone too! I have no cravings for caffeine or sugar and feel so much self control. I’ve sat in front of people eating and had no triggers or urges to eat. This is personal development at its greatest! Such empowerment to be in control of myself. I feel strong, I see now I can do this lifestyle - and love it. Next, I will start training to build muscle and strength - my goal is to step back in the competition stage.
KA-POW,…. I achieved what I set out to do and achieved exactly what I wanted. Through powerful daily accountability coaching with Michelene, KA-POW Mind, Body and Nutrition coaching, step by step I achieved 1st Place 2020.
Today Monica lives a Powerful Ka-Pow Lifestyle, maintaining a healthy fun filled KA-POW Woman’s Lifestyle.

"MY "WHY" is super simple, I want to look good, feel Good and be Healthy.
Living in the shame of being overweight is not fun and it takes a toll on my mental health. Nothing...nothing is better than feeling Fit, Healthy, Powerful & Successful. I feel best at a certain weight, where I thrive; both Physically & Mentally. I got to that weight & mental clarity/strength with the help of Michelene & her Fasting protocols & KA-POW coaching program!
We have one life; we NEED to thrive & be Happy. I've maintained the loss for months very nicely but became complacent & allowed some stress to dictate my health; it's unacceptable! I do not want to ever be a victim of my circumstance. I know this is a lifestyle that you can't just abandon- you have to work on healthy & strong habits/routines to continue to thrive. I know I can lose weight crazy fast with Michelene & then maintain it long term...FOREVER.
Without Michelene's accountability program/group & the coaching Michelene's Coaching, I wouldn't be able to do it. It carried me through the bad & lifted me in the good. It thought me so much; listening to my body, patience with weight loss (even when fasting), proper fasting, and proper refeeds. It truly set me up for success & health! THIS IS EVERYTHING! THANK YOU MICHELENE!"
Listening to one of your KA-POW Lifestyle Topics via our KA-POW online “LIVE” coaching studio’s, I want you to truly know how much YOU have truly helped me.
I just wanted to really share this with you, that YOU do so much beyond weight loss.

The Transformation Journey with Michelene Adamo as my coach has been life-changing. It gave me back control over my life, my body, and my mind. During these past 2 weeks, I have experienced detox symptoms like headaches, body pains, and weakness but I never felt hungry. I struggled with thirst but this also helped me to master resilience- to keep on going because I chose health over numerous cups of coffee per day, overindulgence, and pain medication.

From my head to my toes I can name só many POSITIVE changes!
HEAD: my mind is so much clearer and feels less foggy and slow. I had a very irritable scalp, itchy and dry- no more embarrassing flakes on my shirt or scratching my scalp till it burns.
FACE AND NECK: My skin was usually dry and dull but now it is glowing. My dreaded puffy eyes are no more. My double chin has almost gone and my neck is much slimmer.
UPPER BODY: I feel like the world is off my shoulders because I can breathe freely. I no longer have to sit up to take a proper breath because my stomach is not pressing on my diaphragm anymore. My shoulders, back, and bust are much smaller- my clothes fit loosely. With my flatter stomach, I no longer experience discomfort, bloating, and constant nausea.
LOWER BODY: My bottom and thighs have shrunk noticeably, I can move faster now without having a rash. My pants and underwear are saggy. Orange peel skin on my thighs has minimized. No more frequent urination and constant full feeling bladder. Knee pains subsided and swelling below my knees subsided. My feet feel less tired and painful after a day on my feet. My ankles, feet, and toes are much skinnier and not puffy anymore. Overall I have a lot more energy than before and I feel more positive and happy= ENERGISED!!! All these amazing changes happened in only 2 weeks. I can just imagine what impact it can have as a lifestyle!

I am forever grateful to Michelene. She is the best coach you could have! Very professional and so knowledgeable! Thank you so much!.

I joined the VIP KA-POW Snakers Group with Michelene so that I could end my horrible eating habits and sugar addiction. I really need discipline in my eating choices! My life is extra stressful right now, going through a divorce, one son graduating college & one graduating high school! I’m about to become an empty nester. I really need to feel better about myself so I can move on to my new beginning!
-
This journey with Michelene has been an incredible learning experience for me. I’m so proud of myself for not cheating and losing 26 pounds in 30 days! I couldn’t be happier! I could not have done it without Michelene and this incredible, supportive group! Michelene’s methods are all about implementing discipline and self-control!
That’s what it took for me to get control of my terrible eating habits and get me back on the road to a healthy lifestyle of eating healthy and movement daily accountability that Michelene required. I’ve cut out so many things, lots of sugary treats every day, too many carbs, not enough exercise, coffee, melatonin & wine. Also, the accountability of weighing myself daily and weekly full-body pictures makes it sooo real. I didn’t know how out of control my weight had gotten and how much fat I had on my body until I saw my pictures. I’m excited for my next part of this journey to get myself back into a healthy/lean weight and lifestyle.

Hi, my name is VaI, I signed up with Michelene, because I know her method works! I have now crushed 2 rounds (60 days) of Michelene’s Ka-Pow Snakers Coaching and fitness/Lifestyle Coaching program, I’ve lost a total of 46.6 pounds! My last couple of years have been rather rough. I’m so grateful that when I realized what I was doing to myself with my emotional eating and no exercise, Michelene, and her KA-POW Life program came across my Facebook feed! I’ve been following Michelene for 2 years. Each time I had really great success, but each time I would go back to my old habits due to my emotional roller coaster of a life. Finally, one day when I realized ALL of my clothes were too tight and my fat inner thighs were actually wearing holes in my pants! I couldn’t believe it. I actually stamped my feet on the ground in frustration like a child and I immediately signed up for Michelene’s program. I have learned so much! Mostly about discipline, reaching goals, commitment, determination, and no excuses. This is what it takes to reach goals. Some days it was so hard to hang in there. It would have been so easy to cheat and have a few bites of this or that, but I stuck to my goal and followed her program. The group of KA-POW ladies is incredible. Losing the weight has given me so much confidence. I can finally look at myself in the mirror and be in pictures again. I wanted to share this graph with you all (see pic attached). On 1/1 I started snake diet fasting by myself, you can see in a month I managed to lose 10 lbs. I then managed to gain it all back again between 2/9 and 3/24! Then I found Michelene and her wonderful program and I kept losing and stopped gaining! Thank you so much Michelene! KAPOW!
-
This is my 3rd round with the fantastic Michelene and her wonderful Ka-Pow Snakers program. I have learned so much about self-control and dealing with and feeling emotions instead of turning to unhealthy food choices for comfort. There are times when fasting gets tough, but as Michelene says “that’s when the tough get tougher”. I’ve lost 46 pounds! I’m here to lose 20 more and live a healthy lifestyle, facing my problems head-on and working to be the person I am meant and want to be!
GOAL ACHIEVED!: 57.2 lbs Crushed!
This has been a wonderful journey for me! I have learned so much about my body, eating healthy, taking care of myself and how to rest, recovery,y and nutrition, and a positive attitude play such an important role in my wellbeing! Thank you Michelene It feels so good!
I know I couldn’t have done it without you and your wonderful program! Hitting that target is definitely a mindset that takes a lot of determination. I am forever grateful to Michelene. She is the best coach you could have! Very professional and so knowledgeable! Thank you so much!
