Shannon’s Testimony
I never thought I would see my old figure again. I was about to lose hope.
I tried many diets and gyms, and failed, until the day I walked into It
Figures. I have never experienced a gym as wonderful as It Figures! So
far I have lost 61 pounds and 37.75 inches. The staff is unlike any ordinary
gym. They give me constant support and encouragement. And they pay particular
attention to my heart rate as I go through my workout. I look forward to
my workout everyday. It’s fun and easy, and it relieves my stress.
I have more energy and can do things I never could do before. I’ve
never felt so healthy and great about myself! It Figures has changed my
life in so many ways. I can definitely say that I am a member for life!

It Figures of Maryland - Millersville
Shannon started working out with us about 14 months ago. When she first
came into our club, she was distraught and near tears. Her doctor was pushing
for her to have gastric bypass surgery in order to get her weight under
control. She didn’t want to have the surgery and decided to check
us out, in the hope that our program could help her. She had tried many
different diets, with little or no success. She had also tried other gyms,
but always felt self-conscious and uncomfortable working out with them.
Shannon came in with her friend, and during her interview announced that
she wouldn’t join unless her friend joined too, as she felt that
her friend would help motivate her. We gave them a free week to try us
out. They came together for the first two workouts. Shannon came in for
her third workout without her friend. By the end of the week, Shannon was
hooked; she signed up for one year, but her friend did not join because
of a problem with her leg.
It has been a delight to witness Shannon’s transformation. She has
gone from a shy, quiet, self-conscious young woman that was not happy with
herself, to a happy, outgoing and confident young woman who is definitely
enjoying her life. She now has a new, better-paying job and has purchased
a new car. Working out at It Figures is not only changing her body but
her mental attitude as well, and it really shows. All the other members
seem to revel in her success and never fail to mention how great she is
doing, whenever they see her. Shannon is a real inspiration to all of us!
We have many successful members, but Shannon has become our “poster
child” so to speak. We hold her up as an example of what can be accomplished
with our program and some determination. And Shannon is very determined.
She usually works out five times a week and has changed her eating habits
as well. She has traded fast foods and soda for healthier foods and water.
Shannon is very dedicated to accomplishing her goal of getting to a healthy
weight and size. When her 1-year contract came to an end, she rejoined
on the 3-year plan. With her desire and drive, and the It Figures program,
we are sure Shannon will accomplish her goal!
