When I weighed 373 pounds, I was miserable, depressed, and in a lot of pain. Food was my best friend. I had tried all the diets out there. Some worked…for awhile. Then I would give up and go back to eating. I truly believed that I was meant to be fat forever. Serious health problems hit me and I finally woke up and realized that I wasn’t going to let food kill me.

My ex-husband never supported me when I wanted to lose weight. He was one of millions that tell their spouse, “If you want to lose weight, I’ll support you, but I love you either way.” That told me he didn’t care one way or the other. If my own husband didn’t care, why should I?

Lucky for me, I had Jake Reynolds in my life. Through pictures and my letters, Jake watched, in shock, as my weight go from 135 pounds to 373 pounds.  He gave me everything I needed, not just to lose the weight, but also to care enough about myself to want to make this change. Jake taught me how to eat right. (What to look for and what to avoid.) He created a workout program that was perfect for me. And he has been the greatest source of support I have ever had! He gives me that extra push, when I feel like giving up. He rewards progress.

So far, I have lost 172 pounds and still losing. Thanks to Jake I care enough about myself to keep working at becoming optimally fit and healthy. Not for him. Not for our kids. For ME. I have more energy. I am happier than I have been in a very long time. I still have struggles. There are times that I want to just give up and have that candy bar. But then I hear Jake’s voice in my head, simply ask “Would it be worth it?” And I know it wouldn’t.

So, if you want to make that change and live a healthier life, let Reynolds Fitness help you achieve that goal. You can find personal trainers and fitness coaches anywhere, but you won’t find anyone that is as dedicated and cares about their clients as much as  Reynolds Fitness.
