Flashback Friday.... The lovely Jade who I had the pleasure of helping back in England... Check out her transformation story! When I first met the lovely Ellysia it wasn’t in the usual circumstances you would meet a personal trainer as it was for a pilot television programme, I was filmed every step of the way and almost every training session! I won’t lie and say I loved working out… because I really didn’t. I didn’t like it when I was bigger and still now that I have lost weight I still don’t but the difference Ellysia has made to my shape, weight and most of all my confidence made it ALL worth while. Before October 2011, when I met Ellysia I weighed (214lbs) 15 and a half stone! I always told myself I was happy and the ‘curvier’ of my friends when really I was jealous of my their figures and the attention they would get on a night out. I used to spend my evenings and weekends at home in front of the TV drinking rose and eating takeaways and chocolate, telling my friends I was ‘low on money’ they were none the wiser and never insulted my sudden 2 stone weight gain in early 2011. I gradually got bigger and bigger when I realise enough was enough. That is when I met my saviour, Ellysia Noble! As cheesy as that sounds she taught me over 3 months how to bring back the confident Jade with exercise and healthy eating. Ell showed me how to work out properly and not just walk on the treadmill giving me extensive training on all the gym equipment including the weights and the running machine! I am very dramatic and moaned quite a lot but Ellysia believed in me, encouraged me and took none of my nonsense. I even amazed myself when I completed a 5k jog and even worked out on my holiday to Las Vegas! Not only was Ellysia there to kick my butt in the gym but she showed me how to eat healthily. Before I was stuffing down Indian at least twice a week and I dreaded the thought of not being able to have a naan again! The first week was hard as it mainly meant meat and trying new vegetables but gradually introducing new foods such as sweet potato and brown rice she even surprised me with a ‘Treat Meal’ which meant after hard training and eating to a strict plan I was able to enjoy one naughty meal ever so often (with a cheeky glass or two of vino) and get straight back on track after. After only 10 weeks of working out with Ellysia I weighed (35lbs) 2 and a half stone less. I had lost many inches as well as being educated on living a healthy life. I have maintained my weight loss and I am the friend who is first up on the dance floor of a weekend rather than hiding on the couch! I have one person to thank and that one person is Ellysia Noble. She had time for me when I felt down and celebrated with me when I reached goals. One of the most genuine and hardworking person I have ever met
