I\u2019m from Dallas area. I\u2019ve lived here most of my life. I felt like I was really in a position in my life where I could have easily started to spiral out of control, gaining a lot of weight. So before I called, I tried to do a little bit of exercising on my own. I tried to run about 3 miles every other day.<\/p>\n<p>The problem was, I had no consistency there and I didn\u2019t have any accountability so I felt my weight gaining and gaining and no way to control it. I went online, did some research, found your program, and thought it would be a great idea.<\/p>\n<p>I was looking to drop about 30 pounds, put on some muscle mass, be able to go to the gym and actually work out, knowing what I needed to be doing, what areas I needed to be hitting.<\/p>\n<p>I was looking for a little bit of the accountability to help me get into the gym and having someone there to help me on a day-to-day thing to get up and actually do these exercises on a normal schedule. The whole purpose was to build this schedule so that I could keep doing it with or without someone else there.<\/p>\n<p>The main thing that I\u2019ve accomplished is I\u2019ve made my goal of dropping about 30 pounds. I\u2019m down about 2 sizes. I also feel a lot more confident going into the gym because I know what I need to be working on and how to use the different machines. My goals were really achieved that way.<\/p>\n<p>A couple unexpected things that I didn\u2019t really expect to happen is my muscle mass has really gone up\u2014areas that I never thought I would have muscles, I\u2019m starting to get a lot of muscle definition there, so I\u2019m really happy about that.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Curt:<\/strong> <\/span>And this has taken you how long?<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Robert:<\/strong><\/span> This has taken me about 2 months, a little less than 2 months.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Curt:<\/strong><\/span> Well, that\u2019s quite an accomplishment for 2 months. It\u2019s very, very good.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Robert:<\/strong> <\/span>Yes. My expectations were blown out of the water.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Curt:<\/strong><\/span> Great.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Robert:<\/strong><\/span> I was expecting to lose maybe 10 pounds, learn a little bit about weights, but I never expected the level that I\u2019m at now.<\/p>\n<p>One of the problems that I would have is, every morning I didn\u2019t really have the energy to wake up and make a breakfast, so I ended up usually running out to a fast-food place for breakfast. Now I just get up and make my Shaklee shakes and they carry me through all the way to lunch.<\/p>\n<p>Again, with lunch, I didn\u2019t really have time to make a lunch so I utilized the [Personal Trainer Food] that we got with it to have my lunches there\u2014premade, small portions, good nutrition\u2014so it allowed me to cut a lot of the fast food and bad eating habits that I had out of my diet completely.<\/p>\n<p>My energy level has gone up a lot. One of the hesitations I had going into this program was, one of our workouts was early morning, 6:00 a.m., and I didn\u2019t think I\u2019d be able to get up and actually work out at 6:00 a.m.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.personaltrainersindallas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/59_Jan2013_RobertFischer.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-842\" title=\"59_Jan2013_RobertFischer\" src=\"http:\/\/www.personaltrainersindallas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/59_Jan2013_RobertFischer-300x211.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"211\" \/><\/a>The first couple ones were hard, but the more I went through the program, the easier it got to get up and actually get to the gym. Now I don\u2019t have a problem getting up early to hit the gym before work.<\/p>\n<p>My advice would be to absolutely do the program, utilize all the resources that the program gives you. The shakes are great, but more importantly the personal trainer that you get with it really helps when you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re doing. That person can really help you learn how to work out in a gym. So I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who ever asked me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robert: My name is Robert Fischer. I\u2019m from Dallas area.
