Member of the Month
Beth Chaffin - June 2008
This month we decided to honor one of our most active members, Beth Chaffin. Beth can be seen almost every day at the gym. She has completely changed her life through fitness and we are really proud to have her as a member. She is a model of what hard work and dedication can do and she has the results to show for it. Here is what Beth has to say about her experience:
"In 2001, I was under a tremendous amount of stress. It effected me mentally and physically. I was never a thin person, but my 175 pound body turned into 220 plus. I never got on the scale after that point.
Early in 2002 I decided I had to do something. I got out of the situation I was in, had a complete physical, and started to change. I started losing weight and continued to do so in small amounts over the next few years. I eventually got down to 150 pounds. But I still didn't feel great and had lost alot of strength.
When I married my husband and moved to Villa Rica, we joined Xpress Fitness and I began lifting weights. I started feeling stronger and looking better. Last year, I added running to my fitness routine and lost another 15 pounds. I am smaller now than I was in the sixth grade. Joining the gym has completely changed my life."
We hope Beth's success shows that if you try hard and dedicate yourself to a healthier lifestyle, you can change your life for the better!
