Lightenup Fitness

Wow! That is what my doctor said at my last checkup. That was because I’m down 20 Lbs in 7 weeks of working with LightenUp Fitness. More importantly, my Cholesterol counts are better than ever, even better than what medication had been able to do previously.
I am a remote client so I only speak with Mike from LightenUp Fitness on the phone. Even so, these discussions and his program have had a tremendous impact on how I eat. I’ve always «Known» what I needed to do to lose weight. But I have failed at other weight loss programs. The missing ingredient was the accountability that Mike and team provide. This isn’t like a national program where you weigh in once a week then sit in a class for everyone. Working with Mike has been all about me and my lifestyle.
What I really like is that Mike and team do not just focus on what goes into my mouth. Yes, what I eat is important and we’ve had many discussions around nutrition. But our discussions have also ranged into stress, emotions, sleep and other factors that all can affect weight loss. We have talked about how each of these factors contributes to overall health putting weight loss into the larger picture.
Mike has been an awesome life coach for me and I’m seeing improvements in many aspects of my life. I plan to keep working with LightenUp Fitness for a long time to not only make these changes but to make them stick!

LightenUp Fitness has made such a difference in my life in the two months I’ve been a member. I’ve tried several diets and gyms in the past and have had spotty success, but this time is different. The three-​area focus is huge for me… I feel like I know the exercise and food parts pretty well, but it’s the emotional/​personal area that I’ve never really dealt with. My health coach has helped me get to the «whys» of some of my bad habits and find alternatives that still work for me. I’ve never just sat and talked to someone about my life and the pressures that sometimes drive my choices.
I was skeptical when they said they’d meet me where I am. Most of the time a new plan gives you a laundry list of things to do, but that really didn’t happen here. They met me where I was and helped me start to make small changes that have really added up.
I can’t say enough good things about the team; everyone truly cares. And building encouraging relationships with other members has increased my support network. I’m down 13 pounds in 2 months, but it’s different because I know they won’t come back– it’s just the beginning. My habits are already changing and I’m excited to see what the future brings. Love, Love, Love LightenUp.

LightenUp is unlike any other fitness business model I have found. With over 30 years of weight struggles, dozens of gym memberships, and unsuccessful outcomes from a wide variety of fad diets, I was skeptical. But LightenUp is different and specifically designed for anyone who has struggled the same way I have. Say goodbye to feeling awkward and ashamed at the «skinny gym», say goodbye to unrealistic expectations, and say goodbye to quick outcomes that cannot be maintained over time.
LightenUp is in it for the long haul, helping me to make a lifestyle change. I have lost over 30 lbs in 9 months, about half way to my goal. It hasn’t been quick & easy like most fitness and diet plans promise. Instead it has been healthy, compassionate, and at a pace that my spirit, body, and lifestyle will tolerate. I have been supported and celebrated. My confidence increases daily and I am looking forward to being healthier at 50 than at any other point in my past… It wasn’t too late!
If you are ready to get serious about permanent change, LightenUp is the only company I would recommend as a partner in the process.

The concept of this business is amazing. It brings together every element of weight loss and weight control — physical, nutritional, and emotional. Amazing business.
