This is Ralph Gilbert
Ralph is in my 1-1 team and any transformation in my studio deserves flowers, and Ralph 100% does.
3 stone 7lbs lost in 5 months.
But honestly, the number on the scales isn’t even the bit I’m most proud of.
Ralph is nearly 60 and came to me 5 months ago, accompanied by his wife, who had been trying to get him to be healthier for years.
It was genuinely a really lovely moment. They both put their trust in me to help Ralph, and from that day he has just gone from strength to strength.
The health issues that were quite apparent when Ralph first came to me are truly dispersing. He looks different, he feels different, but more importantly, he’s smiling.
And that smile in his progress photo says so much.
Ralph is a wonderful human being. He’s worked incredibly hard, embraced everything we’ve asked of him and, most importantly, he’s taken responsibility for his own health.
I recently asked Ralph Gilbert why he decided to start with me…
“Why am I on this journey?
I suppose it started as a defensive move. Clearly the two Mrs G s ( wife and mother ) very worried about me health wise and how weight was having a detrimental affect on so many other areas include blood pressure and sleep.
But then this turning into a positive goal to change lifestyle , improve health , regain energy and see the impact of this at home and in work. Having to throw out clothes that are too big is a really therapeutic action!!”
I honestly can’t tell you the feeling of immense pride I get when I see transformations like this.
Of course, losing 3 stone 7lbs is amazing.
But watching someone who came to you needing help become healthier, happier and more confident is what this job is really about for me.
Seeing Ralph’s smile in that second photo epitomises huge job satisfaction.
I couldn’t be prouder of Ralph.
What a transformation. What a bloke.
