When Tari lost her son unexpectedly, the emotional weight of grief soon turned into weight gain. In the years that followed, she tried everything to get her health back—Weight Watchers, keto, long-distance running, gym classes, and even visits to medical specialists. She was running 11 miles a day at one point, yet she was still gaining weight.
Nothing worked.
The grief, the frustration, and the feeling of being completely out of control over her body and health were overwhelming.
That’s when she found Fit House.
A New Approach to Fitness, Strength & Healing
Tari came to Fit House feeling like she had exhausted every option. But what she found was something different: a plan built for her.
She started with a personalized prep program designed to build her strength safely and effectively. She also worked closely with Gina on her nutrition—finally addressing the GI issues and inflammation that had plagued her for years.
And the results? Life-changing.
Now at 61, Tari is stronger, leaner, and more confident. Her grief hasn’t disappeared, but she’s found strength and healing through movement, community, and support.
Why Tari’s Story Matters: Grief and Weight Gain Don’t Have to Weigh You Down
Tari’s journey is a powerful reminder that:
- You’re never too old to get strong.
- Healing is not linear—but it’s possible.
- Diets and overtraining aren’t the answer.
- Real change happens when you train smart, fuel well, and have support.
