I am a woman in her 40’s who has cared about what I’ve looked like and has been in pretty good shape all my life, except for the past 5 years. My weight starting creeping up rapidly 17 pounds in 3 months and continued to shoot up to 40 pounds over the past 4 to 5 years. My body was not mine. I started not recognizing my reflection in the mirror. I was simply disgusted!
It hit me in December 2008 when my husband received a beautiful photo album of our Thailand trip we had taken with our family that past November. In viewing this 44 page album, there were only a couple pictures with me in them. I saw my grand daughter with everyone but none of her and I. My feelings were hurt and I was upset with myself. I made the choice to erase all pictures with me in them as I could not stand to look at my fat face. I was embarrassed at what I had become, over weight! I was very disappointed and had no one to blame but myself. At this point, I knew I had to make a change. I want the memory of my vacations with my family and grand daughter to be complete with me present.
January 8, 2009 I started my first 6 week boot camp class with Audra. Three weeks later I joined Audra’s nutrition class. In 3 months, I took off 17 lbs and in a total of 5 months I am down 22 lbs and continuing to lose. I have dropped 2 pant sizes and a ton of inches, my body has muscle and tone where I have never seen it before. I have 10 more pounds to get to my goal and am confident I will reach it.
I have taken exercise classes, hired personal trainers and even nutritionist before but never had these results. The difference I have found in Audra’s style vs others, is that she takes a hands on approach and becomes committed to your goals! She meets with you one on one to gather information about you and what your personal goals are then follows through and assist you the entire way to achieve them.
Audra makes you feel like you are the only one she works with even though both courses I took from Audra were groups. I could not have done this without Audra’s assistance. She kept me motivated and on track. When I fell off, she was there to pick me up! Today, I look in the mirror now and can’t believe the transition. If you are looking in that mirror and disgusted like I was, you too can make the change. Come join us! You will love it, I do!
