About Teri

As a young child, I was extremely overweight and had severe asthma.  As a result of the asthma, I was always sick, could never participate in sports. With my added weight, I had very low self-esteem.  These problems have followed me into adulthood, and though I lost and gained the weight back many times over, I knew I had to find a way to fix my weight and self -esteem issues. 

After much reading and determination, I successfully kept my weight off, but only when I implemented the use of weight training and followed  a low carb diet.  I then got to know a bodybuilder, married him, and got hooked on weight training.  My life was changed from that moment on. 

A few years later, after being approached by so many people asking for advice, I decided to get a training certification.  Before long I had started a part-time personal training business and things grew from there.  I now have my own  personal training and massage therapy business, and I love what I do for people.  I feel like I have found my calling in life, and was guided toward it by my own struggles with weight and other life experiences.  I am living proof of what a person can do if they put forth the effort.  We can all turn bad experiences around if we give ourselves a chance.  As a result, I look forward and don’t look back on what could have been my life if I hadn’t taken a big step towards changing what I didn’t like about myself.
