The Experience

Rachel Brown, Bootcamper

I started BGBYBC 4 months after giving birth to my first child.  I was a full-time working mom struggling to get back into a workout routine.  A friend persuaded me to start BGBYBC, and while I initially had reservations, ultimately I decided it was only 6 weeks.  One session was all I would need to get back in the swing of things.  I quickly learned BGBYBC is not a “quick fix."  It’s a total body workout, and not to mention a lot of fun!  After one session I found myself only more excited to sign up for the next.  And the next.  And the next!  More than 4 years later, I feel better than ever both physically and mentally, have made great friends among fellow bootcampers, and have lost a total of 20 lbs.  Because of what I have learned and accomplished through BGBYBC, not only am I healthier, but my entire family is healthier, happier, and more active.  It’s great to be a BGBYBC bootcamper!

After having three children, I knew I needed a consistent workout plan. I joined BGBYBC a year and half ago to help get back into shape and live a healthier, more active lifestyle. When Allison offered the Little Black Dress challenge I decided to take part to learn how to eat clean, healthy balanced meals. I am so glad that I did! Allison and the other participants were so encouraging and helpful. This was a lifestyle change for me. I lost all of the weight and have maintained the weight loss through clean eating and a regular fitness routine at BGBYBC. I feel so much better and have more energy than I ever have. Allison and the group are so encouraging and will cheer you on the whole way.

I signed up for the Little Black Dress challenge at the last minute. I had been doing BGBYBC for 3 months, along with taking a prescription from my doctor for weight loss. I was ready to stop the prescription but I knew I could fall back in the same routine. In three months of BGBYBC I lost 10 lbs a month, I was so proud, but as soon as I stopped taking the prescription, my weight stayed the same...that is when I knew I had to take part in LBD challenge. I followed it closely (not 100%) but in the end I had lost 15 lbs and 15 inches in those 6 weeks, and I was left with something I could continue forever. Since then I lost about 35 more pounds and I went from a size 20 to a size 12 jeans. I can actually play with my kids and they love the green smoothies. I owe a lot to Allison, BGBYBC, and the LBD Challenge.

I lost 16 pounds completing the little black dress challenge but gained confidence in my ability to finish what I started. Allison is the best cheerleader and helped me see that I can do better day by day. The sad news was that I injured myself and didn't exercise much during the challenge and still lost 16 pounds! Thanks Allison, for a great plan to follow. I still love that mango salsa by the way.
