A Healthy Life Academy
Ladies, are you tired of following plans that are hard to stick with, leave you starving and you gain all the weight back?
Just because you're getting older doesn't mean you're destined to poor health or you can't have a body you're proud of.
Are you ready to LOSE the WEIGHT and keep it off? FOREVER!
IT'S TIME to SAY NO TO DIETING and make healthy living become YOUR REALITY!
Do you reach for food for comfort? Is depression running your life? You do well until you have a bad day and you end up overeating which leads to more self doubt and then you quit?
Do you have those infamous love handles that don't go away regardless of how well you eat and exercise.
Does pain, inflammation or joint issues keep you from being motivated to eat healthier or exercise.
Are you craving sweets which leads to more cravings and it’s hard to find that balance? Or you end up feeling like a failure with the constant disappointment of never completing anything?
Or.....YOU REALIZE WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF A COACH, IN ANOTHER YEAR, YOU'RE GOING TO BE TAKING MORE MEDS, GAINED ANOTHER 20 POUNDS OR EXPERIENCE EVEN LESS MOBILITY AND UNABLE TO DO THE THINGS YOU ENJOY DOING.
Would losing weight and living a healthy and ACTIVE life impact your life? Your family's life?
"I'm so pleased with my progress! I'm on my way to reaching my weight loss goals....I'm stronger, healthier and on a much better path than I could have been on my own. Sam - your REAL, no nonsense advice is what keeps me going in the right direction. This is all about change, regrouping and learning to live differently - not just for a few weeks, but for good! Thanks so much for your continued support and encouragement." ~ Pat
It's time for you to FEEL BETTER, have MORE ENERGY and EXPERIENCE more OPPORTUNITIES!
"Thanks to Samantha this was the jump start I needed for getting my life back on a healthy track. I am enjoying the natural sweetness in fruit and the taste of vegetables without adding sugars, artificial sweeteners, and butter. My whole body feels better now that I am concentrating on eating healthier foods and cutting out diet sodas, sugar, artificial sweeteners and drinking more water. I have more energy than I've had in years and this energy level has continued. My whole body system feels better than it has in years. I don't even have a craving for heavy starches or sweets which is wonderful! I had my doubts when starting the challenge but now I am a 100% believer! Thank you Samantha!" ~Melinda
"I have battled my weight for years and was hesitant to try AGAIN. But due to health reasons, I knew I needed to do something. God knew too as He had my path to cross with Samantha Alday!! After an encouraging conversation with her, I began the life changing program. I actually feel good; I am no longer tired or sluggish. The inches and pounds are decreasing in the process. I am very aware of EVERY thing I eat now because I want to be healthy. It has been over five weeks and I have not consumed any processed food. It may take a few minutes longer to prepare my meal, but it's all worth it! A big THANK YOU to Samantha for the positive influence and attitude during this journey." ~Terry

You haven't failed at dieting my friend, the diets have failed You.
Hey Y'all! I'm Sam! Im an RN, Certified Weight Loss Coach, Personal Trainer and self-proclaimed Nutrition Ninja. And to simply put it, I teach women over 40 how to lose weight and Keep It Off!
As a result, the women I work with:
- become healthier
- feel better
- fit back in to those clothes they've been saving in the back of the closet
- become more active and able do the things they've been wanting to do (but can't now because their weight or aches and pains won't allow it)
- and most importantly, they learn how NOT to revert back to their old habits after completing the program
I totally understand what it feels like to flounder with trying to "eat right" but never meeting the mark (if you know what I mean), feeling guilty if I ate the wrong thing, not being able to keep up with unrealistic expectations and incidentally feeling like a failure.....Oh the cycle.
But my journey to better health started for different reasons.

When I was 29 years old, married for only a few short years and two kids ages three and five calling me Mama, I was diagnosed with colon cancer. It was not my life that flashed before my eyes; it was theirs. It was school plays, graduations, weddings, grandchildren and a life of retirement, front porches and rocking chairs that motivated me to keep going. And at times, the ability to put one foot in front of the other.
And so with dial up internet booted, I began my journey to health. The problem is I had no idea what to do. Throughout my 30s I tried to "eat right" but always floundered, never really having a realistic plan I could stick to. Each new "thing" left me feeling guilty or afraid of 'eating the wrong thing' and when I couldn't keep up, feeling like a failure. Again.
It was only after turning 40 that I was able to break free from the bondage of my food obsession and gain clarity and direction on how to eat for better health and live without counting points, calories or crazy rules I could never keep.
I'm now on a mission to help and provide women who are shackled by their weight and poor health with a place to start and the tools they need to regain control of their weight and health, improve their quality of life and the knowledge they need to MAKE IT LAST FOREVER!
"I lost 17 pounds. I feel fabulous and happened to have blood work done yesterday. My numbers were fabulous! Thank you! This is do-able for me and it's really changed my thinking about so many things." ~ L

Frequently Asked Questions
-
"What if I'm not over 40, can I still join?"
Absolutely! The sooner you can start your path to healthy living at a younger age, the better. I only wish I had. I would love to have you join us, you just may have to listen to me complain about my hot flashes. ;) -
"Will I starve?"
No! It's just the opposite! My program teaches you to eat several times throughout the day to fuel your body, increase your energy and boost your metabolism. You'll learn it's not about eating less, but eating better! -
"Will I know what to eat?
Yes! I provide you with your food list along with menu suggestions, recipes and other tips to take the guess work out of your week and what you're supposed to do." - "How is this program different than so many other "diets" I've tried?"
A Healthy Life Academy is unlike any "diet" or program you've ever done where we'll focus on eating real, wholesome, nutrient-dense foods. HLA focuses more on fat loss instead of weight loss, all while losing inches and maintaining lean muscle, balancing your blood sugar and hormones from years of yo-yo dieting. It's a comprehensible educational program designed to fit you and your lifestyle. I tell my clients that my goal is to teach you how to live without me! - "What is the pace of the course? Do I have lifetime access to all videos and materials?"
Honestly, if you wait for the perfect timing or the 'I'll start next Monday' routine to start, then most likely you'll never start (there will always be a reason to wait). While you can also self-pace yourself through the modules, each week is designed to build upon the last and progress you weekly to help get you closer to your goals by the end of the course. - How much 1:1 support is involved? Will I be able to ask my individual questions?"
This program is extremely hands on and I'll be with you every step of the way! You will have the opportunity to get laser-focused coaching on every Sunday call. Additionally, I am extremely active inside the private Facebook group. This group is highly engaged and I interact in the group on a daily basis to connect and answer specific questions. - "Will there be accountability opportunities? I need constant encouragement."
YES! If you’re craving unwavering support, you’re in the right place. The HLA Facebook Group will be your opportunity to engage with other women just like you, every single day. During Orientation Week, you'll be encouraged to find an support partner! This is extremely powerful, especially if you’re someone who needs strong accountability. - "How often do you run the program?"
Due to the immense dedication and demand, this academy is only offered 1-2 times a year. You have lifetime access to all content, so at any point, you can go back and review lessons and videos.
