B.I.C.T Success: I have lost 38 pounds so far and a lot of inches

What made you join B.I.C.T? Wanting to lose weight, tone up and get some self esteem.

Why has it worked for you? I think it has worked for me because of Siobhan and Jeff for the most part not giving up on me or anyone else in the class. Them giving us the tools to use if we so choose and just sticking with it and seeing the changes that it has made in myself.

What was your motivation? To be around for my boys and the rest of my family for a very long time to come.

How if any has this experience changed you or your life? It has definitely changed my outlook on life. I know now that I can do whatever I set my mind to and I CAN accomplish it.

Any Comments? I just can't thank Jeff and Siobhan for bringing this program to Brandon and being so inspiring and encouraging. If you are having a bad day and want to go to Casey's for a donut and slice of breakfast pizza all you have to do is call or email and they will help you through it. It is all about choices we make in life and what you want your life to turn out to be. Ultimately you have to do it for yourself and no one else because no one else is going to do the workout and the eating habits for you, sure they can encourage you but you are the one that has to want to do it. And I am HAPPY to say that I have done it and will continue to do it. I have made some great friends in class and if they are not there you get worried about them. It is like an extended family to me. Thank you Jeff and Siobhan for everything you do and keep up the good work. ( Siobhan do not get all teary eyed by reading this, I am getting teary eyed by writing it but you both have been and will continue to be a great influence in my life. Thanks.)

Any Advice for future B.I.C.T. members? If you want to change your life this is the time to start and stick with it even if you do not lose any pounds for a couple of weeks stick with it and it will happen, I promise you it will happen. You just have to be willing to stick it out and work hard and eat right and you will definitely see results in a short period of time. The hardest part for me was changing my eating habits it does not happen overnight but it can be done. Your family will not even realize that you have changed how they are eating healthier as long as you approach in a positive manner and do it gradually. Your family will not even notice the difference in the eating habits. And you will have slip ups but do not beat yourself over them just chalk it up to a mistake and move on. None of us are perfect if we were we would not have to endure the warm ups, the circuits and the core day after day. But you do really feel good when you walk out of the class every time you do it.
