Losing and regaining weight can become normal and unhealthy for you. I know this is true from frustrating experience. I was 30-50 pounds overweight more than once.
Since 2006, I have been a fitness trainer. That’s when I began to leave the “yo-yo weight loss and regain lifestyle.” It wasn’t an easy process to change. Here’s a little bit of my story…..
I grew up as a physically active child in New Mexico. That was how I “did fitness” for the first 21 years of my life and it was basically on “autopilot.”
I big part of my lifestyle included walking, riding a bike, Boys Club activities and playing sports year-round.
I never thought about training heart rates, body fat, muscle mass, eating right or any of those things growing up. The only requirement was that exercise had to be fun.
I was never overweight but then my life changed.
When my football playing career ended after college, I had a problem. What would I do to stay active? Exercise had always come automatically with my lifestyle.
Now, I was working behind a desk as an accountant most of the day and I had become sedentary. Except for the occasional membership on rec sports teams, I was not very active. I gained 30-50 pounds more than once over the years! I also developed high blood pressure and high triglycerides.
So, I did what many people do. I joined a health club and began to exercise. It seemed like work instead of fun because I had never been a member of a health club.
My exercise habits would basically go this way: good workout habits for 3 months, sporadic workout habits for 3 months.
I would try starvation dieting to lose weight. It worked until it didn’t. I didn’t develop nutritional eating habits.
I had settled into a routine I was happy with until I started studying to become a fitness trainer in 2006.
No more yo-yo weight loss and weight regain for me! Why?
I made lifestyle changes that lead to better long-term health. But, as I stated before, the process was hard. Starvation diets had only given me weight loss and regain.
Many people have weight gain stories. Life happens. I want to help you solve the body transformation puzzle, if that’s your situation.
Make lifestyle habit changes that lead to better long-term health, which includes body transformation and ideal body weight.
I DO NOT recommend fad diets, quick weight loss gimmicks, starvation diets, weight loss pills, fat burner supplements and the like.
Why you SHOULD train with me:
Transform your body and lifestyle forever, even if you need MAJOR WEIGHT LOSS.
Burn fat, build muscle mass and live an energized life.
Feel better about yourself and dress in the clothes you dream about.
Learn how to eat healthy and never diet or starve again.
Improve performance in sports and recreational activities.
Make your work day more productive.
Live in a stronger body that is less prone to injury.
Let’s go!

As this is relevant to the content of your site, I was wondering whether you would be open to discussing placing a link to ourselves on your website? In exchange, I would be more than happy to negotiate an incentive for yourself, such as an exclusive discount for your readers or payment of a fee if necessary.
Let me know what you think – I’m very open to other possibilities, so feel free to make suggestions. Please let me know if you wish to discuss further and we can arrange a time at your convenience.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Many thanks for your time,
Seb
