Richelle is still by far my favorite trainer. I started with UBBC because I looked in the mirror and hated what I saw. Being short at only 5'1, I saw a weight gain that had amounted to 25 to 30 pounds but looked like 50 on my small frame. My boyfriend at the time encouraged me and I signed up for the yearly "challenge." After the first day I came home and cried that I could not handle the workouts. My boyfriend told me it would get better and to stick with it. For the next few weeks I would go back dreading dying after each workout. Then suddenly, I got on the scale and poof, I had lost 5 pounds! It was working. I also noticed I began to feel stronger.
I ended up continuing with UBBC and also trained for my wedding along with my then encouraging boyfriend who became my husband and who won the 2010 challenge losing 40 pounds! I got down to 20% body fat and 114 pounds. I thank Richelle for all of her work and getting me to finally workout. Whether it was running my first 5k with the group, making friends or just laughing, I enjoyed all the workouts. I have since moved to California but I have continued to workout and maintain my 114 pounds and I have to credit Richelle for helping me change my life forever and my husband's who was once 275 and now hit the 199 pound mark! UBBC is a steal. Let's just say one month in UBBC price would equal one week in a California bootcamp. I thank you Richelle, I just wish you could move to California now!
