#TransformationTuesday! Meet KATHLEEN, one of our  FIT4FALL participants who has been making remarkable progress in her fitness journey. Please read her story below 👇🏽

"Approximately 3 years ago, I was in my GP’s office telling her I just couldn’t tolerate my diabetes meds any longer. I felt like I was a prisoner in my home & couldn’t risk leaving my house because I constantly felt so sick.

After creating a plan, scheduling many follow-up appointments for visits & blood work, she agreed to ween me off of my meds. I was at a miserable, embarrassing weight. With the support of my family, I got moving & started making better choices. About a year later, I noticed a new gym was opening near my house. My 2nd child & I eagerly joined. I have no rhythm whatsoever, but I thought a Zumba class would be a fun way to start my fitness journey.

I slowly started joining other group fitness classes & fell in love with the gym. I’ve lost almost 1/2 of what I used to weigh is more than what my 21 year old daughter weighs! The best part is my A1C is 4.6, I have less inflammation, I feel 20 years younger, & have met the best people!

The staff & instructors are so encouraging & supportive. Alternatives & modifications are always offered after a surgery or injury. My biggest regret is not doing this sooner. My prayer is that I stay focused & healthy for a long time to come. My advice is to make the commitment to simply just walk through the Crunch door. Once you’re in, take a chance on a group fitness class, talk to a trainer & everything else will fall into place. Every day, I look at the Crunch application on my phone & schedule my classes for the next day. Check out the red light therapy, saunas, massage tables & other Crunch gyms.

Once you get a foot in the door, you will hear things like “It’s Monday!” “You’ve got this! You can do anything for 30 seconds!” “Great job!” The Crunch family is so wonderful to their members & now fellow group fitness mates are becoming instructors & instructors are becoming personal trainers! How awesome is that?!?

GIVE IT UP FOR KATHLEEN!  She is truly amazing!
