I started working out at Exercise Inc in June of 2010 with David. I’d previously gained weight about a year and a half before from some medical stuff and hadn’t been able to lose it on my own with traditional workouts (lots of cardio and strength training) and diet. I had heard commercials for Exercise Inc on the radio and it definitely caught my attention. So after checking out their website and realizing I did need to try something new, I finally decided to go in for a consult and check it out.
After the first workout with David, I definitely liked the entire concept and decided to at least give it a go for 12 weeks to see what happened. My initial weight loss goals was to lose 50lbs (which to me was a crazy goal- I didn’t think I’d lose that much weight).
So each week I worked out and logged my food so I could get tips on my diet. David was great about pointing out what foods to cut out like cereal which I used to eat all the time, and which foods should be kept in my diet. The workouts also freed up a lot of my time because it takes so little time out of your week. You’re in and out in 20 minutes, and then have a week to relax and recover. No more going to the gym almost every day for over an hour and sweating my butt off.
Over the next 7 months I gradually lost about 55lbs, and I am still losing weight. I’ve also gone done about 6-7 pant sizes. Recently I’ve gotten so many compliments from people I know too, and have several co-workers interested in the program. It’s definitely made me feel a lot better about myself. I am still keeping track of my food each week because it helps me to stay on track until I get to my ultimate goal weight. Exercise Inc’s program is so efficient that it would be crazy to change anything.
