About Me

Meet Coach Dee – Founder of Beyond the Scale

Seven years. Hundreds of pounds lost. A life reclaimed.

My journey began with a moment I’ll never forget—when my son looked at me and, with all the honesty only a child can have, called me fat. It hit me hard. But that moment sparked something in me that would change everything.

I’ve spent the last 7 years fighting for my health, my joy, and my future. I’ve lost over 300 pounds—not through perfection, but through persistence. There were setbacks. There were tears. But there was also growth, strength, and a deep belief that I was worth the work.

Today, I’m a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach, and the proud founder of Beyond the Scale. I help others who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or like they’ve tried everything—because I’ve been there. I know what it’s like to feel invisible, to fear change, and to crave a life that feels just out of reach.

At Beyond the Scale, I coach with empathy, honesty, and real-life experience. This isn’t about quick fixes or toxic diet culture. It’s about rewriting your story with powerful, sustainable habits—one step at a time.

If you’re ready to take your life back, I’m here to walk that path with you. Because you are so much more than a number.
