Late 2019 into early 2020 my weight was increasing and I was becoming depressed.  I tried to get back on track with my fitness and tried a few things, including a couple of different coaches but they either weren’t the right fit for me, or my mindset wasn’t in the right place.

Then in August I saw the results and positivity from someone I followed on IG who was using Fitness Bex and thought I’d check out her profile. When I clicked follow a short while after I received a message from Bex thanking me for connecting.

Even though Bex has a large following just that simple gesture made me think that she actually does care. I listened to a few of Bex’s podcast episodes which gave me a great insight into how she works and felt like she would be a good fit. I umm’d and ahh’d about signing up this side of Christmas, thinking I wasn’t in the right frame of mind, with COVID & Christmas coming up, what was the point? I’m so glad I decided not to wait!

I signed up for 12 weeks and have so far lost over 18lbs. Food and training plans are really easy to follow and Bex provides videos for all exercises in the plan, in case you are unsure. Bex is really supportive of my goals and response times and any changes to plans are super fast. There are weekly team zoom calls with Bex which are super informative and also gives you a chance to meet the rest of the team.

The best thing that came out of such a challenging year was connecting with Bex, I know had I not have signed up I would definitely have been at least 10lbs heavier & likely further down a dark hole, that I’m sure of!

Working with Bex has quite honestly transformed every aspect of my life....something I truly wasn't expecting when starting the Great in 8 Challenge.  I did the whole programme from home with pretty basic equipment, and got great results! 

Creating good habits has stretched far beyond food choices, exercise and building more movement into my day....with Bex's support and guidance I have gained more confidence not just in how I look (which has TOTALLY happened)  but so much in how I feel.

I have energy that I didn't think possible and more drive and motivation to learn and grow on every level.  The benefit mentally has shocked me, and how this then fed into work, life and relationships is something I will hold on to tightly.  Bex's enthusiasm and energy is infectious, and her naturally warm style makes this process even more enjoyable.

Well as I sit here and try and compile in to words how the last 4 weeks have gone while working with Bex I feel overwhelmed, in a good way, with how far I have come and what I have achieved.

On a whim after making contact with Bex through my business we got chatting about life and all things body and food related, little did I know within a few days I would be taking the leap to have her as my coach both in health/fitness and business.

I had started a “transformation” journey on my own and was taking 1 step forward and 2 back. I knew I needed someone to help, someone to take the mental pressure of me and someone to keep me accountable. This is where Bex came into her own.

The whole process felt so easy, nothing was to much hard work for her despite the questions and queries I had to ask after being sent all my info and plans

There have been points in the past 4 weeks I have doubted myself,  doubted the process, not always given Bex the trust she needed from me and had huge mental battles with myself.

During all these moments Bex has been there 100% 24/7 to pick me back up and get me back on track.

Her unwavering support, real talk, kind words and gentle way of tough love has really challenged my thoughts and feelings and pushed me to look a little harder and a little deeper into why I think this way and how I can make it better.

I have suffered for 18 years, 50% of my life with food issues, body issues and general fear around everything food and body related, I have been constantly striving to be perfect not really truly understanding there is no such thing.

Bex has challenged my thoughts, made me uncomfortable and pushed me to do things that would ordinarily spiral me into a bad place. However the difference is she has supported me throughout every step and been there to nudge me further in the right direction when all I wanted to do is retract to the behaviours I have come to know so well.

Carbs became my friend not my enemy, eating more regular meals became enjoyable not petrifying and slowly but surely the doubts in my head became less loud

I’m so much more confident than I was 4 weeks ago however, I won’t lie, I still have work to do, this process is far from over and I’m 100% sure there will be bumps one the road. The difference is now I have Bex by my side for us to navigate this journey of a better life together.

If this epic start with her is anything to go by I’m so excited about what’s to come.

I urge anyone even thinking about working with Bex to just do it, you literally will not regret it.

I have been with Bex for about 6 months and within that time I have lost over 25lbs in weight and am getting into the best shape of my life. Her coaching is second to none. I receive regular training updates with videos which has helped me immensely with some of the exercises.

The support that is offered by her is next level and responses are always detailed and prompt. Hiring Bex as my coach is by far the best investment in myself that I have made.
