  • I am going to do "Get Fit" ... Its my second time. I lost 40 pounds the first round. Plan to reach my goal this time!
  • I am proud, and thankful, to say that I am going to be participating in the Spring 2012 "Get Fit" program! :) I am 27 years old, married, mom to five awesome kids, part time Pure Romance Sr. Consultant, full time student at Kaplan University, and Volunteer Coordinator for March of Dimes. BUSY BUSY BUSY!! I have put myself and my health last for far too long. I weigh approx. 210 lbs with a goal of 155 lbs. I am looking forward to being healthier and stronger (and skinnier!) in 2012! :)

    I will be doing Get Fit for my 4th time. For you "newbies" out there- I am married, a mother of 3, grandmother of 1, work full-time and will turn "40" in September. This is my year, my session, my time. I will be Fit and Fabulous when I turn 40. I have lost a total of 46lbs- unfortunately I have let 10 of those come back on since Nov 2011. My goal is to push my self as hard as I can and leave it all on the floor- no excuses. I will be in "Onederland" this session. I am ready to get started (again)!

    I am doing my second of Get Fit. As of this morning I am down just a little over 72 lbs. I am hoping after this round and the summer challenge I will be ready for maintenance in the fall. I am your garden variety yo yo dieter and I believe I will be able to achieve my weight loss goal of 150 lbs and maintain it provided I stay in Mel's program.
  • I'm participating in my second Get Fit. My favorite things about the program are having more energy and all the support. I am part of the General Cable crew and last time did all the boot camps at work. This time I've committed to Thursday evenings at Impact Life. I'm excited!

    Depending on my weigh-in weight, I may do the Maintenance program! But I'm still getting fit! :happy:

    I am doing Get Fit! I was in Melody's very first Biggest Loser and was able to lose 14lbs. Unfortunately I let it all come back. I am an EMT/Firefighter and a mom/wife and am very active in the communities and the fire service. I am a Fire & Life Safety Educator and I am the committee chair for 2 major organizations in the fire service (KFA & NKFA). I am a stay at home mom and I babysit. I have always put everyone first and now it is my turn. I want to further my career and it is only going to happen if I get back in shape and get in better shape. I can't wait to get this program started & get FIT!! :happy:

    I will be there sunday and monday. This will be my second time in the "Get Fit" program. I really enjoyed it the first 16 weeks and have missed it during our holiday break.

    I am a first timer Get Fit Girl! I've been to 2 classes (boot camp and sculpting) and love the positive energy and attitudes! I'm looking forward to this adventure!

    Me Me ME! for the second time in a row. I did not break any weight loss records last session (18# or so) but I stuck with the program and can really feel a difference in my general energy level and can actually see some muscles! Thanks for the muscles go to Gail and her kickboxing class, which is my staple bootcamp class!

    I am.
  • I'm participating for the VERY FIRST time in the Spring 2012 Get Fit program and so far, it's been a great experience! Melody, you are AMAZING! :heart:

    I am so grateful to you, my daughters and God for leading me to this program. I was so petrified thinking I couldn't do it because it's been at least 10 years since I've worked out this hard, but I've been surprising myself. I've only participated in 3 of your classes so far, but plan on trying additional classes as the program (and I) progress.

    Thanks again for all of your inspiration, being "real" in sharing your feelings/struggles and leading all of us into a healthier lifestyle!

    :drinker: This is water in my little red man's glass!!! LOL.

    Hi everyone,
    This morning I got to my first class after a week and a bit of no exercise (healing a broken nose). So now I am officially participating and I am loving it. Loved the workout - love feeling my body come alive again.
    I'm a newbie to the program and I am looking forward to a 16 week transformation.
