The true story behind the picture: I recently posted an extremely thoughtless photo which understandably provoked reaction. Since then, I have spoken to and apologised to both Darren Fuller of Fuller Life Personal Training and also the lady concerned Alex Goodier. A result of our conversations is this text below which I am pleased to include on the page. Alex wanted the photograph reproduced again to accompany the piece, which I think all of us will find both interesting and also moving. I wish them both every success (and Im also looking forward to coffee!) Please read this all the way through and then enjoy your day. Nige. Our Story: This picture appeared on the other weekend with the following caption ‘Not hers obviously, or she would have got her money back…’ Well, I’d like you to know our story: My name is Alex Goodier (‘hers’) and I’m with Darren Fuller (Personal Trainer) of Fuller Life PT. Yes, I OBVIOUSLY still have loads of weight to lose, however since 1st March 2014, I have lost over 5 dress sizes and 4 stone in weight with Darren Fuller. I have successfully gained weight for years in the gym and it wasn’t muscle! Darren has talents and skills as a personal trainer that I have never found in any other trainer before. He genuinely cares, and he believed in me even when I had I lost all confidence. He is determined to help me achieve my goals and dreams!! During this journey, I have now received confirmation from the doctors that I have Fibromyalgia, talk about a bomb shell. They informed me that because of this it makes it very easy to gain weight and virtually impossible to lose weight, amongst the other daily challenges of extreme pain and exhaustion. The day the photo was taken I was very poorly, and could only manage a walk on the pier. And because of this I couldn’t even get back to the gym without having a ‘laydown’ first on one of the benches. You may see Darren and me walking around Dover at a slow pace, and it may look like we aren’t doing much, but we ARE working to the maximum of what my body will allow at that time. Through Darren’s skill, patience and determination, I have dramatically improved my life...and health. I also know that he will help me achieve my dreams, even if the deck is stacked against me. His dedication and encouragement has changed my life, to such an extent that I have even decided to enter a triathlon next year. Darren Fuller looks at and takes you into a fuller life. Darren’s rates are very fair and hand on heart, I can say that he is worth above and beyond that which I pay him, because of the difference he has made in my life. And because of this I can truly say I have a fuller life! My story is just one of the many success stories credited to Darren Fuller of Fuller Life PT. Remember never judge a book by its cover, because there is always a deeper story within! I look forward to seeing you on our walks, please do say hi, and remember there is always hope!
