After having children, I lost my size three body. I didn’t so much mind being bigger as much as not being able to get things done and the lack of energy.

When you’re overweight and out of shape the mere thought of working out is painful. You look on the TV and see those perky skinny people telling you how great you’ll feel and figure OK, they’re right, I’ll try it. Then you try it, and you don’t feel good, in fact you feel closer to death. That hardcore approach may look good on shows like the Biggest Loser, but for me, there is no way I would continue on a program that made me feel badly or made my body hurt like that.

Well, I’m here to tell you that done correctly you can feel good from day one. I know it sounds like a lie, but it isn’t. I have embarked on this twice now and both times I’ve felt great.

I first worked with Steve from 2000-2004 and he assisted me to get in much better shape. His techniques are realistic with where you are at physically, so you never overdo it and you can actually enjoy working out. I worked with him over that time and dropped about 75 pounds and it stayed off.

In 2008, I got very ill and required three surgeries. I had gained some of the weight back but my big thing is that I want to increase my stamina.  I started to work with Steve again a few weeks ago and I have to tell you I’m still amazed. The first workout we just stretched. My posture came back. I could bend over. I felt better. I have a way to go, but I know that this approach works and I feel a thousand percent better already. When have I ever in all my years looked forward to workouts? Well before working with Steve, I’ll tell you how many – never. Now, it’s the highlight of my days.

Thanks Steve, you are once again saving my life.
