Farrah's before & After

9 MO Pregnant                                              AFTER in Hawaii


Farrah is SUPER ATHLETIC, and always pushes herself to the absolute MAX!  Because she's used to being able to KILL IT, in the gym, she was really hard on herself when we first started working together because she couldn't do what she was used to doing.  I had to CONSTANTLY REMIND HER.... "Farrah, YOU JUST HAD A BABY 6 WEEKS AGO!!!!!" LOL!  

She is the epitome of, "NO EXCUSES"  She didn't use the "I just had a baby excuse for years and years,!  As soon as her Doc gave her the OK, She was gettin fit!!!  She lost an incredible amount of weight for her trip to HAWAII, and looks stunning with her "warm weather tan!"  If you're sitting at home, using the baby excuse just a little too long, TAKE A LOOK AT FARRAH.... NO EXCUSES!!!!

I would like to start by saying that Erin is awesome! I have known Erin for quite a few years now. I went to high school with her husband, Dan. I appreciate how we can be friends, but when it's time to be serious and work out there is no messing around! 

I had my third baby in September. I am in my late 30s or "advanced maternal age" as I repeatedly heard through my pregnancy. I got a bit carried away this round and gained 50 pounds. Our family decided to go to Hawaii in January so I knew I wanted to get a jump start on getting back into shape. In October I talked to my cousin and asked if she would be interested in training with me. She agreed and I was excited to start. I had my 6 week post pregnancy check up on a Tuesday and my first training session on Wednesday. 

I won't lie....that first session almost killed me. After that, I honestly looked forward to our Wednesday training sessions. We did 10 consecutive weeks. Each week was different and the high intensity level was exactly what I wanted. During that time we also received weekly meal plans, shopping lists, workouts and texts to keep us on track. I liked having someone to keep me accountable. 

I have always participated in athletics and worked out. I have been active enough that I could eat reasonably well and maintain my weight. Following the eating plan was my biggest struggle in this process. After a few weeks and multiple texts and conversations with Erin, I was able to find things that I liked and that worked for my schedule. My favorite discovery is the egg crepe. (Stay tuned, I'm going to post the recipe for this soon!) I now have all the tools I need to meet my weight loss goals. 

During my 10 weeks of training with Erin, I was able to lose 20 pounds, 6 inches off my waist, 5 inches off my hips, and 3 inches off of my thighs! I still have about 10 pounds to lose, but I feel great and I have so much more energy. I am so glad I got started when my baby was just 6 weeks old vs waiting until the new year.
