December 2011
In January of 2011, I started Weight Watchers, I needed to lose some weight. I hadn’t been exercising at all, and the thought of exercise made me cringe. In June, my weight loss had plateaued and I was having a hard time losing, so I decided to join Exertec hoping that I would find something I liked to do. And I have!
I have a long road ahead of me in my weight loss but I feel that I am completely on track. I have lost over 20lbs since I started at Exertec in June. I feel so much more energetic and healthier.
I started at Exertec with the anticipation of taking the aqua classes. I soon found that I was craving to go to the gym and could not wait for the next class. I will say that most of that came from Jackie’s classes. Jackie has motivated me more than I could have ever thought. She brings out the fight in me. I find myself working harder & getting stronger, mentally and physically every day.
After being in Jackies aqua classes for about a month I approached her about taking her Boot Camp Class. I had heard it was really tough. She had no doubt that I would be able to do it, so I gave it a try. I love the energy and the push you need to accomplish it. It makes me feel so good to complete each class and I look forward to the next one every time!
I plan to continue with my current gym schedule. I take aqua on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings and boot camp on Wednesdays. I work in San Francisco, so evenings work best with my schedule and I seem to have more energy then too. I have also been thinking of trying to get on the machines and weights more. My ultimate goal is to be a healthy weight and just be healthier all around.
