3 Months is Just the Beginning!

This is just the beginning, but it is worth sharing.  I know for a fact that they aren’t done with their journey, but they have made a huge transition in their lives and it is already showing huge benefits!

Today I want to introduce to you these two awesome sisters that I’ve had the privilege to train for the last couple of months.   Meet Renee and Amanda,  two sisters looking to make a change.

They found me through a friend and decided personal training was that change they were looking for.  We’ve been meeting twice per week, for a little over 3 months now.  And look how happy they are to be at the gym, haha!  I realize the gym isn’t always the place you want to be after a long day at work, but these two haven’t missed a day.  They have been consistent with their exercise and their nutrition, which has helped them make huge strides towards their goals.

Even when they aren’t meeting me at the gym they have been active on their own (something I suggest everyone should do, whether you work with a trainer or not), walking, running, and doing home workouts. Also, I think most importantly, they have been consistent with tracking their food (which is huge!).  In my opinion your nutrition makes up at least 80% of the importance in reaching your fitness goals.

Besides growing their confidence in the gym since we started (yes ladies, I notice how comfortable, or uncomfortable, you are with the exercises I prescribe) I wanted to share how much success they’ve achieved with some hard numbers as well.  So here goes:

In a little over 3 months Amanda has lost 22.5 pounds, and Renee has lost 23 pounds.

Amanda has lost 13.75 inches in total (3.5 from her waist)  and Renee has lost 11.5 inches (also 3.5 from her waist).

Both have lost more than 10 pounds of body fat.

Both have increased their strength and their stamina immensely! Just ask them!

And Both have lost a few pants & shirts that no longer fit because they are too big 🙂

I never told them they “couldn’t eat” any certain kind of food.  Now, I gave some suggestions, but nothing was “off-limits”. In fact, they went on a few trips, went to a few concerts, hit up the food truck fair (or whatever that was called), have been out to eat a time or two, and still managed to reach a goal of losing 20 pounds.  All they had to do was keep track of their food, and not go over their calorie and macro numbers.  Were they perfect? nope.  But you don’t have to be perfect. I’m definitely not perfect.  But just being aware of how many calories they needed in a day helped them be more accountable to themselves when they were having fun, or just living life.

and here is what the 3 month before/after looks like.

I mostly want to say congrats to these two for always being consistent.  consistency is the key because it will eventually lead you to your goals.  If you don’t give up, then you WILL find what you are looking for.

And also, for always having a good time when we workout, even on the bad days we still manage to have a few laughs while making some progress.  Great job ladies!
