Before coming to Innovative I was concerned with losing, losing pounds on the scale and inches off my waist and hips. I used several at home workouts, diets and weighed in weekly as I watched my “points.” I went to boot camp and fat camp until all I had lost was a true sense being healthy.

 

Then I joined Innovative and started working with the FitPro staff. The journey I have been on since that time has been life changing. I began to not only lose the pounds and inches but more importantly I started to GAIN.

 

I gained the Smiles of the front desk staff and the childcare staff as they greet me and the kids each morning. The smiles told me I belong-this is your gym. Come in, workout, have fun.

 

I gained the Esteem to acknowledge that I deserve to workout at a beautiful facility with an amazing trainer. All of us do. Working out is not a luxury for the rich and famous. It is as necessary as food and water.

 

I gained the Lessons of eating the right foods. I learned when to eat them and why. I learned what combinations

of foods are best for weight loss and increasing lean muscle.

 

I gained the Freedom from my constant struggle to lose weight and to be a certain size to understanding

how my body works, the function of adaptation and the success of consistent training.

 

So in the end despite that I lost a few pounds, what mattered most to me was what I gained. I gained my SELF,  and now I am two sizes smaller and healthier than ever. I have more energy for my work and studies, my young family and for my relationships with friends. I eat better, move more and I feel great! Thanks Innovative!
