In August of 2017 I decided to embark on a new lifestyle, get control of my health, and my well-being. I decided to do it for my wife, my children, and for myself. At my highest weight I was 447 pounds, pre-diabetic, on three types of blood pressure medication, in constant pain in my joints and back, could not keep up with my kids or my life in general. I was out of control and failing.
I decided to have a bariatric surgery and had the procedure in December of 2017. By early summer of 2018 I had lost around 150 lbs and felt like I was ready to find an exercise program to aide me in my journey. I joined Title Boxing in Canton in July of 2018. Title has become an essential part of my life. I have lost another 30 pounds, I am in the best shape of my life, no-longer pre-diabetic, only 1/2 dose of one blood pressure medication, more energy than I thought I could have, and can finally keep up with the pace of life.
I also decided to work with Gayle and her nutrition program. At the end of my first 12 weeks, I was able to break a weight loss plateau and lose 12 more pounds, feel more in control of my mindset, and have more energy than ever. She took the time to get to know me and my individual needs and wouldn’t accept anything less than success. Just what I needed.
In 2017, I could barely walk from my car to the office without sweating and breathing heavy, now I can workout harder than ever in boxing, kickboxing, and MMA classes at Title, and at the end of each session I feel refreshed and awake. I have gained strength, stamina, health, and confidence. Most days of the week you can find me, my wife, or both of us sweating away trying to live our best life. The trainers, owners, and facility are all great. Everyone at Title wants you to succeed.
