“I just wanted to send you a note to tell you how great it is to be in your Boot Camp! I was looking at my bod in the mirror this morning and realized my tummy is firming up nicely, my 'bat wing' arms are toning and I'm feeling so much healthier - and all because of you! I love coming to your class, even when I know that I'm going to be sore in the morning, because I know your sunshiny face will be there to encourage me. You always have positive and encouraging words too, even when I'm not getting it. I'm trying and that is what is so amazing - I can actually do this stuff! I'm not sure how far along we are in the Boot Camp, but I do know that I will miss you when it is over. I'm going to have to sign up to keep coming, I guess!”

I just have to share some good news with you. After our work out yesterday, I had my annual physical and my doctor was thrilled that I had started a work out program. My blood pressure was actually below normal (in a healthy way), my blood work all came back just great, my heart and lungs are great too. So, even if you can't see it, my insides are doing as great as my outsides!

I remember when we met and I had to have my first assessment and I cried. I had let myself and my body go and was not loving myself the way I once had. Since my wedding day 8 years ago I had managed to gain a whopping 90 pounds! 2 kids, a unhealthy eating habit, some bad medication and a sedentary life all contributed to this. The assessment was the first time I had weighed myself in a long time and had never had the calibration test done before, so this was the first time I had to face what I had done. What I remember most about the day was that you stopped what you were doing, and sat down and really helped me to understand what a good thing I was doing now. You made me see the positive side in things. And for that I am forever grateful to you.
When I started the program, you were there every bit of the way with encouragement, extra time and effort towards my progress. You always took the time to check in with me and tell me how proud you were, that meant a lot. The program gave me a better understanding of fitness and nutrition. I have followed your advice and have seen MAJOR RESULTS, as you know. With your help I have lost 34 pounds already and 14% of my overall body fat. I have lost 3 dress sizes and the momentum has just begun! I can’t wait for the next session of your program to begin. In the last session I found myself excited to see how you were going to challenge me and the group, you never let us down.
Sometime shortly after I started to work out with you, I was in a store shopping and I had seen a pair of pants that I really loved, they only had a couple of pairs left, and they were REALLY not my size. I sat there feeling sorry for myself, and then you came to mind and I bought them anyway. Well today I cried, when I was in my closet trying to find something to wear, and saw them hanging there so pretty. I thought to myself, “yeah why not just give them a try”. They zipped right up. I ran out and woke my husband to tell him(of course not knowing how I sat in that store that day, he couldn’t feel the same excitement, as I danced around the bedroom in my new pants), but he clapped and cheered anyway.
As you know, I have sent people to see you and to find out about the program, not because I am pushing them, but because they all ask what it is I have been doing to get healthy. All of my friends and family have seen the results I have achieved with you. I told someone yesterday that as long as Edie will have me, I will be in her life.
