Meet Fran

“I served in as a SSG in the US Army. I have always been considered athletic and in shape most of my life. I have completed a marathon and several 5ks. After serving in the military for six years, we decided to start a family. After kids the happy weight seemed to pack on. I played with fad dieting, yo-yo weight gain and loss for the next few years.  It wasn’t until January 2012, when the doctor shared with me, that I was on the road to heart disease if I didn’t start to change. I joined a gym a few months prior to this news and attended five days a week for two hours a day, with no results.  I had a few friends who had tried BCC, so I asked what I have to lose other than weight. I started in February, and it was over. The results came with the hard work and dedication that BCC had to offer.  I truly enjoy the camaraderie  within the group and love motivating people to push themselves a little harder. I feel in love with the idea of actually becoming a personal trainer, I wanted to help people change their lives, like mine had been changed.  In January I was 183 lbs in a size 14, today I am a healthy 145 in a size 3. I am now a certified personal trainer through the American council on exercise. I have learned the skills, but the question is do you have the will to make you a healthier better you!”
