This Part Wasn’t Supposed to Feel This Hard
You were supposed to feel complete.
And yet, you don't.
You feel like you've barely started.
You’ve worked so hard. You made changes most people can’t even begin to understand.
And yet… here you are.
Feeling more alone than you expected.
More tired than you want to admit.
People cheer for your success, but they don’t see the cost.
They don’t see the mental math you do at every meal.
They don’t see the ache of missing your old comforts—or the fear of slipping back into them.
You’ve heard “You look amazing!” more times than you can count…
And every time, it stirs something complicated.
Why now? Why didn’t they see me before?
Your relationships feel off. Some people are too close. Others feel far away.
You try to act like everything’s fine, but deep down, you’re still adjusting—
Still figuring out who you are in this new body, in this new life.
And maybe the hardest part?
You don’t know where it’s safe to say:
“I thought this would fix everything. But I still feel… not okay.”
You Want Peace, Not Just Maintenance
You want more than maintenance—you want peace.
Peace in your body.
Peace in your mind.
Peace in your relationships.
You want to feel like your inside matches your outside.
Like you can walk into a room and not brace yourself for how people will react.
You want to trust that the choices you’re making are rooted in your values, not fear.
That you’re not constantly managing or performing, but actually living.
You want relationships where you feel safe, seen, and supported—where you don’t have to explain the quiet grief or the unexpected shifts.
And maybe most of all?
You want to believe that you can hold onto this progress without losing yourself in the process.
How I Help (Because I’ve Been There Too)
My name is Megan Secrest.
This isn’t just something I’ve studied. This is something I’ve lived.
​
I know what it’s like to lose a significant amount of weight and still feel completely lost.
I know the sting of compliments that feel more like judgment.
I know how disorienting it is when your body changes faster than your identity can catch up.
And I know what it takes to feel at peace again—to rebuild trust with yourself and your body, and to find a way forward that actually feels good.
We won’t just talk about willpower or meal plans. We’ll talk about you—your story, your values, your relationships, your identity.
We’ll explore the messages you’ve received about your body and your worth, and gently untangle what’s yours to carry—and what never was.
Together, we’ll help you reconnect with your voice, your values, and your truth—so you can move through the world with confidence, peace, and self-trust.
​
No pressure. No shame. Just support. And a safe space to land while you figure this new version of yourself out.
Is This Support Right For You?
This Work Is for You If…
-
You’ve lost weight (through medication, surgery, or other means) and feel emotionally unprepared for what came after
-
You’re navigating complicated shifts in how people treat you—and it’s messing with your head and heart
-
You’re tired of “just be grateful” and want a space where all your feelings are welcome

This Work Might Not Be for You If…
-
You’re looking for diet advice, weight loss coaching, or body-shaming “accountability”
-
You aren’t ready to explore the deeper emotional and relational shifts that can come with body change
-
You’re hoping for quick fixes instead of sustainable, compassionate growth
-
You’re uncomfortable with therapy that centers emotional healing and self-trust over external outcomes
