Donna

A strange mixture of emotions followed me to the gym for our final meeting. I was apprehensive, definitely, but also I was confident. 17 weeks earlier Shana Ross, my personal trainer, told me I would lose weight on her plan. I was confident because I could easily tell the difference in my body since yielding to Shana, but apprehensive because I didn't know if I had met my personal goal. I was carrying the size-12 LizGolf shorts that had cost me $40 and I was about to learn if I could cut the tags off my dream shorts.

I knew Shana would be pleased with the data she gathered on me and I too was pleased with the results of eating right and lifting weights. And I knew in my heart if I didn't reach my personal goal of size-12 on that day I would another day, soon. I would reach the goal because Shana had given me information that changed my life.

Make no mistake; I did not like the information. I did not like hearing that I needed to eat every 3½ to 4 hours and lifting weights would be a part of my daily routine. I didn't like hearing it and I wasn't eager to do it. But then I evaluated the results of doing it my way. I had been working out and eating better on my own for about a year and my over age 50, menopausal 30 pounds was still there. I finally decided I would do it Shana's way and the results are why I have written this open letter. I remember saying to our group about half way through, "It's working, damn it. That means I have to keep doing it."

I got really lucky when I found Shana through a very good friend.

The things I like about Shana:

1. She never lied to me.
2. She treated me like an adult yet she tended to my needs.
3. She answered every question.
4. She truly understood my excuses but didn't let me limit myself because of them.
5. She's a happy person.

I don't know you, but if you've read this far I'm being your really good friend and telling you that you're going to be really lucky if you choose Shana as your personal trainer.

Shana's comments on Donna
Donna was part of a pilot program that I conducted on weight loss for menopausal women. She had tried for some time to lose weight and just couldn't make it happen. But Donna is a determined athlete and a heckuva woman. She channeled her competitive spirit into learning how to rev up her lagging metabolism by fueling her body with high octane nutrients, committing to a rigorous resistance training program which re-shaped her body, and to improving her stamina with aerobic training. She's swinging the clubs better than ever and she's transformed herself into a "red hot mama," whether she's hot flashing or not!
