I am soooo damn tired of hearing you cannot get to muscular, my biceps are bigger than most men, I have problems buying shirts!! Thanks. I found this by googling "slim down too muscular body". I am actually depressed. I work out 6 times a week and I devote at least a hour to aerobics. I am just realy upset because I have been doing this for at least 3 months and the scale is not changing much... I did not see the routine that was recommended to you, was I to click on another website? WOW, thanks Mandy, somebody finally states my problem.

I wanted so much to be where I had always dreamed of being....fit, fun, fantastic, and full of life. I came no where near achieving this goal. I have always struggled with my weight. I grew up as an overweight child, then an overweight teen, then as an overweight young adult. In 1988 I topped the scales at 244 pounds. I lost 72 pounds on Physicians Weight Loss. I was so excited because I had never been a normal size. The only issue with this plan was that it was a starvation plan that planned for you to be in ketosis. Through the years I have gained this weight back. The most I have weighed is 275. This was after I tore my Achilles tendon. Now, I weigh in at 248 pounds. I can't believe I let myself creep back up. I like to work out and love to do at home workouts. I am engaged to be married but it is all on hold because I want to look and feel good on my wedding day. I know that most of my issues are emotional and mental. This weight is a wall to hide behind and an excuse for failure. Taking the weight away is also taking away the excuse. I am ready. Whatever happens after the weight is gone will be okay. I'm tired of being afraid of the unkown. I am ready to be fit, fun, fantastic, and full of life. When I turn 41 next June, I do not want to look back with regret on another year that has passed me by without being my very best. I love your plan Valerie and would love to be a part of the Scholarship. I turned 40 this year. I wanted so much to be where I had always dreamed of being….fit, fun, fantastic, and full of life.

My name is Cindy and I have never had the body I know I am capable of having. Sadly, I'm a personal trainer and get results in each of my clients!!!! I don't look terrible but I could stand to lose probably 20 lbs of fat. My biggest downfall is probably too much information in my head and too many different theories on how to get to my goal. I get flustered and end up switching from program to program before I ever get results. By doing this I maintain my 5'5 145lb, had 2 kids and am 39 yrs old body but I'm not the MILF I want to be LOL. I'm constantly researching working out and dieting and am convinced that Valerie is one of the few trainers out there that have it right! Based on my belief of that, I've been training all my clients following her RCR protocol with some changes in exercises to keep things different once in a while. My other problem is food....it just tastes so good! I have a HUGE appetite and give in to it often, if not daily. I start each day with good intentions but end up indulging my sweet tooth too much. Much of my problem is years and years of dieting/eating clean (not constantly but it always comes back to that) and frankly, I'm sick to death of salads, egg whites, oatmeal and sweet potatoes! Any help in the diet department would be hugely welcome! The gym I work at it very well known in the fitness industry and I feel as a personal trainer I owe it to myself, my clients, and my gym to walk the walk, and talk the talk. Yes, I can get results in my clients while looking like I do, but I'd feel much better about myself and my confidence if I was happy with my body before I start trying to help others like themselves. Even trainers can benefit from having a trainer and so I hope, Valerie, you can help me out! Hi! My name is Cindy and I have never had the body I know I am capable of having.

I'm down to 174 now, and posted new pictures on the RCR contest. As always, I think I look much better than the pictures show...I guess it's my little fantasy. What the RCR contest tread doesn't tell you is that the shorts I'm wearing in the picture, I haven't been able to squeeze on for many years. I'm the lowest I've been in 14 years. Thank you for your assessment! Jill Hey Val,

I really appreciate this opportunity and feel so honoured to be chosen! It's already made a difference....the chocolate has been locked away for now , fridge is stocked up with fruit, yoghurt and salad and I've been writing my goals ready for entry into the club. I think it will be really good to be more accountable and share the experience with others so can't wait to get started! This has already been such a positive experience with such a lovely group of people. Will take my role as international ambassador very seriously :-) See you in the club, Gráinne x Thank you again, Val. I really appreciate this opportunity and feel so honoured to be chosen!

I feel like I know you guys already and I am so invested in how you do. I love that you all are so supportive of all the women and I think each of you will be such an amazing example. It was really hard to pick winners, because really each person who wrote in, in my mind is so brave and should win. I think everyone will be motivated by the 4 of you, so this is how we reach more women. I want everyone to live Red Carpet Ready and I truly believe they have it within themselves to do so. I will be checking up on you. and as Sonia says, "I'll see you in the club". Luv, Val Hi Jenelle, Sonia, Rachna and Grainne!
