Limitless Fitness has changed my life and I have never felt happier than I am today. My journey with Limitless Fitness began in August 2018. My friends had been going for a long time and invited me to join “bring a friend week”, and I decided I would give it a try. I honestly had no intention of signing up and I made that clear to them right away. But after my first class, my entire mindset changed. At that point in my life I was the heaviest I had ever been. I was so unhappy with myself, but It seemed like it was almost too far out of reach to even try to do anything about it. I would cry in fitting rooms; I would hate going out with my friends because I would worry what I would look like to others. It got to a point where sometimes I wouldn’t recognize that girl in the mirror. I was so unhappy with myself but not willing to take control of my own life.
When I first went to Limitless Fitness, I felt so welcomed right away by the trainers and the members there. I was hooked instantly. I am notorious for signing up for yearly memberships and never going, but I decided this time would be different. I started to notice changes quickly and it helped to keep me going. I can remember my first bootcamp- I was quivering with 5lb hand weights and Pam called me a “natural boot-camper”. Two simple words. Two words that she may not even remember saying. Two words that had finally convinced me that I COULD.
​
In my 10 months at Limitless Fitness I have lost 60 lbs., 35 inches, and 15% bodyfat overall. More important than those numbers are what it’s done to my health. In the Spring of 2013, I was diagnosed with Lupus. I had struggled with keeping it under control and even used it as an excuse for why I wouldn’t exercise. But since my journey with Limitless began, my numbers have never been better. I even completed a Spartan Race in the Spring; something I would have NEVER thought I could do.
​
My goals have changed more times than I can tell you but that’s the beauty of it. Always work towards something new. Set your mind to something and never give up.

I am forever grateful for the friendships, the success, the support, and the motivation that Limitless Fitness has given me. The thing is, we are all trying to learn to love ourselves and even if it’s just a little bit more each day, be proud because it’s not easy. Limitless Fitness has finally taught me how to believe in myself. It’s amazing how much you can do when you tell yourself that you can.
