Kenny is a client who trains with Daniel Beery. Here is his story, in his own words: Ever since I was in the 3rd grade, I had always been on the larger side. I may not have been “fat” but I was definitely chubby. I was chubby until about the end of 8th grade, where I stopped playing lacrosse and just dropping exercise in general. After this, I started gaining massive amounts of weight and eating a lot more food. I was incredibly unhappy. I tried multiple times to lose weight, but they would all only go for a day or two before I quit. Once I went to the doctor, and saw that I was weighing in at a whopping 330 pounds, I knew that I needed to make a change or that I wouldn’t be around for much longer, and couldn’t live a happy life being so heavy. I texted my trainer Dan, and told him that I was serious about losing weight this time. I was lucky that he would take me back to train because I had always been making up excuses to not have to go into training before. In my first week of attempting to lose weight, I lost 6 pounds. Even though it was only one week, seeing that 6 pound difference really instated in my mind that I had the power to conquer my weight, and I was going to do just that. As the months progressed, I started getting thinner and thinner, and as I was losing weight my general attitude increased as well. Whenever I felt like I couldn’t do something, Dan just kept pushing me and reinforcing me telling me that I could do it, no matter how hard it was. I never had any mako slip ups on my diet, but some foods were tempting, but my end goal was just as tempting. Now, 7 months and ten days after sending Dan that text message telling him that I was ready to lose weight, I am weighing in at 220 pounds, and am happier than I have ever been in my entire life. Even though I still have a ways to go, my BMI went from 45 to well under 30. I have seen results and know that with hard work anything can be accomplished. I now have the energy and confidence to do and try things that I have never been able to do before. I can’t thank Dan enough for what he has done for me, because without him, I feel like I may still be where I was 7 months and 10 days ago. I am now leaving for college at Oregon State University in Corvallis in a few days, and even though I won’t have Dan 3 times a week every week, I know that I have everything that he taught me, and will continue to live a healthy active lifestyle.
