Thomas Lafser - Fit To Be You

Introduction: I found fitness during a tough time in my life. I was overweight for as long as I could remember, I had a medical scare, and I lost my sister in law to cancer. But instead of allowing myself to be buried under the depression, I committed myself to me! Through portion control and exercise I was able to lose over 100 pounds and find happiness in myself. I have continued the healthy lifestyle for over 6 years now and enjoy spreading that joy to my clients and class participants. I know the struggle of losing weight, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and overcoming temptation. I'm able to set up a challenging but doable workout regimen for my clients, as well as help them with the emotional and mental struggles as I've been down that road before. In the beginning, I was always excited to see my results. Dropping pant sizes, shopping at stores I never thought I'd fit the clothes in, and having more self esteem. But I've since found MORE joy in seeing the success in my clients and participants. They always thank me for helping them lose weight or overcome a goal, but I know from personal experience that it was them that achieved it, not me! I'm happy and overjoyed to be a part of a journey for so many! I've always been enjoyed making others happy and personal training helps me accomplish this goal!
