Kristina: The same week that we joined Lean and Fit, I had a tragedy strike at work. This tragedy was the last of many that year and instead of retreating and hiding from the world; I went to class that night and worked out my feelings. I continued to go to class and continued to make the changes I promised to myself, to Jon and to my children. I could not give up on me or on my relationships. This was more than just improving me physically. This was about becoming a better mother, wife, daughter, and friend. It was to improve my relationships with those that I love and to improve my relationship with myself and with food. So now, almost 15 months later, I am 25lbs lighter, 19 of those pounds being fat mass and I am no longer on medication to control my thyroid. Although there are times that my joints ache, overall, I have come a very long way in my movement, flexibility, and strength. We are also teaching our children that health is important, physical activity is necessary and that you need to take care of yourself in order to take care of others. Both my boys enjoy going with us and have learned how to work out along side us and we love that!

Jon: In the year that I have been doing this program I have lost around 25lbs and am back to my highschool and early 20’s weight. My flexibility and balance is back to feeling normal again, and my fitness level makes me feel like I could get back into sports again and not have to worry.
