I’ve been overweight more or less my whole life. My weight would fluctuate up and down 20-40 pounds each year, so I had three sizes of clothes in my closet at all times. Disgusted by how I looked, I would often avoid having pictures taken of me and adopted a shy personality so I would not draw attention to myself. I felt gross all the time, which in turn would get me depressed, and then I would eat – a vicious cycle.
I still remember the day I decided I needed to make a change. Last February, one morning when I was getting dressed for work, I could barely button my “fat pants.” I actually contemplated staying home from work that day because I had nothing to wear that was comfortable. I recall thinking – how pathetic, I’m going to have to “call in fat.”.
I’ve worked with personal trainers before, had gym memberships where I’ve gone and maybe cranked out 30 minutes on the elliptical before getting bored and leaving, I’ve even lost weight on my own before. But nothing, NOTHING, has proved more effective for me then Mike Alves and Change Your Body Boot Camp..
I can honestly say, Mike Alves and Change Your Body Boot Camp has changed my life. Since joining 10 months ago, I’ve lost 61 pounds, 4 dress sizes, and I’ve never felt better. I’m in the best shape of my life, both strength and size-wise. I walk taller (friends have actually commented about this), my wedding rings no longer fit, I’m happier and I’m more confident. I can walk into any store and buy something off the rack. (When I used to go shopping with friends I only bought accessories and shoes because I didn’t want them to know what size I was.) I no longer have to worry about fitting into tight spaces or turning down invitations to do things, like skiing, because my size made it hard. I’m able to participate in life instead of watching it from the sidelines..
Following Mike’s boot camp and nutrition program isn’t easy. Nothing worth attaining in life ever is, but if you are willing to put in the work and have the discipline to follow Mike’s plan YOU WILL see results. Yes, there were some times when I’ve wanted to give up, when I hit a plateau or when a certain routine pushed me out of my comfort zone, but that is where the Mike factor kicks in. Mike is always there to be motivating, encouraging, and help you tap your inner strength to push through. He wants so much for each of his clients to succeed. And the group atmosphere of the boot camps lets you build relationships with people in the class who also help to motivate and push you along..
I’m not at my goal yet, but I know I will get there. And more importantly, I know I’m never going back to the old me. Mike and his exercise and nutrition plans have taught me a new way to live where I am able to work hard and then play hard. He’s a life-changing trainer and coach!
