Motivation Monday
From the beginning until now I am starting to realize why I was always having headaches, always tired, and feeling depressed… When I went back and looked at my day one “Welcome to the Family” picture I was in shock! This road so far has been difficult but I am standing proof that ANYONE can change. My moods have changed, my goals have changed, my passions have changed, and my “I can’t do that” attitude has changed. Thank you Karen Candia for never never judging me, always supporting me, and showing me that I can be whoever I want to be! I also want to thank EVERY single Crossfit OIB athlete for encouraging words, support, and motivation! It truly feels like a family! Even when I think I am not losing weight or gaining muscle, these check-ins remind me this works!!!
Thanks family… -Jeremy

4 Week Progress Report
When I started going to Crossfit the results started to pour in. Within weeks I started to be able to run and notice an overall change in strength, but it did not take long to realize I was not getting the best out of these awesome workouts for the simple reason I was not getting proper fuel.
I began working with Karen a few weeks back and she provided me with my nutrition prescription. Had my first weigh in and measurements taken today and I am down ten pounds and 10 inches.
I must say that when Karen told me to add fats to my diet I was speechless, WHAT!!! Fats make you fat, carbs make you fat, this lady is nuts. Well guess what folks, she was 100% correct. Not only is working out more fun, because I have energy, I feel so much better.
We all have excuses as to why we stay unfit, but let me tell you that if you take the time and make an appointment with Karen for nutrition you will never regret it.
Thanks Karen and all the coaches at Crossfit.
