Ashley (anonymous) from Bowling Green Says:

Hello! My name is Ashley, i am currently a senior at Bowling Green State University, majoring in Psychology. I have battled with my weight since 6th grade when i started losing weight from 190 lbs, by eighth grade i was 112 and a size 0. Throughout high school, i gained more weight and by the time i entered college, i was 135lbs.

After two years of college, weighing at 176lbs and extremely unhappy and distressed about it. I joined Weight Watchers in January of 2006, lost a couple pounds here and there. Then i joined Lifestyles, weighing at 166lbs, already lost 16 pounds having a wonderful workout buddy going to the gym with me.

My ultimate workout buddy and i decided to join this new contest called, \"Resolutions Now\", and i lost 6lbs and 16 inches in just 4 weeks. My body fat is now down to 22% and i actually enjoy working out instead of it feeling like a chore. I even managed to stay dedicated and continue to reach this far with a strained butt muscle.

I do have to say, the ladies at Lifestyles are so amazing, helpful, energetic and friendly. I know i would not be able to reach my goal without them pushing me. Somehow i juggled working two jobs and being a full time student, but it is all worth it when results show!

Needless to say, i can not wait for spring break this year and am actually excited to get into a bathing suit:o) Thank you, Melissa Pietrzak and Cory Miller(my two Personal Trainers), Tabitha(my work out buddy), Jen and Ashleigh(employees at Bowling Green Lifestyles). More results soon to come...

Ashley before!

Katie Armbruster from Parkway Plaza Says:

Hello, I am Katie Armbruster. I am a Kindergarten teacher and also a student at the University of Toledo. I am engaged to be married to my fiance, Ruben Delgado. We are planning a wedding for New Year's Eve of 2007.

I have been a member of Lifestyles for one year and have always thought about getting a Personal Trainer. Once I got engaged, I really started to focus on myself, wanting to slim down and tone up for my wedding.

I finally decided to get a Personal Trainer when I heard about this new contest called, "Resolutions Now". What really motivated me was knowing that the winner received an ultimate prize of losing the most weight or inches.

I loved working with Monica, my Personal Trainer throughout the contest. She really pushed me to work my hardest and I learned so much.

Thank you Monica!!
