Maggie and Lance Cowell
Like all busy working moms, I was always taking care of everyone else, the kids, my husband, even the dog comes first! My clothes were feeling snug despite the fact I had moved up a few sizes. Promises to myself that tomorrow I would start eating healthy, working out, and taking care of me were broken. Like many women out there, tomorrow never comes. Or if it does it's short lived. My weight had gradually increased reaching new plateaus (10 pounds, 20 pounds, ugh!). As if turning 50 wasn't enough, what everyone said about how easily you gain weight after 50 was my reality. Then one morning I woke up and weighed myself and much to my horror the numbers on the scale screamed a new high! In 10 years, I had gained over 30 pounds! I cried, I literally cried and then I said enough! I have to change and the change starts now!
All research points out that the key to losing weight is 80% what you put in your mouth and 20% workout. I started watching what I ate and feeding my family healthier. Weight started coming off slowly but I was also not fit and had no muscles. My husband Lance had been working out at His & Her Fitness and convinced me to go with him. I have never been a workout person and I was very reluctant and intimidated but I also knew I had to do something. So Lance and I started working out with Christina Larson at His & Her Fitness. I met Christina, owner of His & Her Fitness and was put at ease. We went over goals, expectations and talked about food and great recipes her website offers. I have never been a workout person but with His & Her Fitness I have found the entire package! Christina was patien
t and I never felt overwhelmed. There is a great staff that motivates and trains ME the individual not a one fits all approach. They made a plan for me. It was nothing at all what I expected. What's great is that despite the total difference in Lance's workout versus mine we both could still workout at the same time with Christina. It was great because together we were making things happen. The weight came off and I was amazed at the transformation of my body! I ha
d people asking me left and right "What are you doing?" "You look amazing?" What's your secret?" But the best part of all, I feel great! I never realized how bad I felt.
I feel fit, I feel good and I know I'm healthier than I have ever been. I'm still working out and I'm loving it! I also realize I'm teaching my kids to be healthy and more importantly that it's important to take care of yourself. I never thought I would love working out but now I do!
His & Her Fitness offers the real deal. They have a staff that is passionate about what they do and offer more than just a work out. It's a change to a healthy you!
Thank you Christina and Terrilyn, you made all the difference!
