Speaker: Ann Marie Swindler
What was the problem you were experiencing when you came to us?
Ann Marie Swindler : I have never been an athlete and have had struggle after struggle trying to get quote in shape. Um uh When I came to breakthrough, I was about 100 pounds overweight and was struggling with self-confidence and was barely able to walk because I was so weak. Um Just from a core perspective and breakthrough has been a Godsend.
What have you tried in the past to solve it? Why didn’t that work?
Ann Marie Swindler : I have tried everything in the world to work on my weight and my fitness. I have, I started Weight Watchers when I was eight or nine. I've owned a Bowflex. I've joined 500 gyms. Some of which I've never seen the inside of. I've tried all the videos. I've tried, uh, low sugar. I've tried low carb. I've tried, um, whole 30. I've tried everything and I didn't realize until I got to breakthrough that the problem was me and not what I was trying.
What results have you had working with us?
Ann Marie Swindler : I've lost about 35 pounds since I got to break through. Um But I've gained so much more than I've lost. I've gained strength, physical, strength and self-confidence in a community that I know I can depend on. And I've learned that I'm not the only one struggling with these things. And there are people out there to support me. And most of all, I've learned that I can become a different person. And that journey has started, started when I walk through the doors at breakthrough and continues to be an incredible journey. I have gained so much self-confidence and I have really taken a different attitude on my and my attitude on life has completely changed. And I've tried so many different things before. I'm stunned at the results.
What was your experience like?
Ann Marie Swindler : My experience has been life changing eye opening, um incredibly fulfilling. I have spent the first half of my life, maybe a little more than half of my life, doubting myself, berating myself being um my own worst enemy. And breakthrough has given me the tools and the confidence to know that I can break out of that pattern and be a completely different person. I, I can't say enough about the, the validity and the the success of this program, how different it is from anything else. Um I know because I've tried everything else and this is just much more than I could have expected.
What would you say to anyone that might be on the fence about working with us?
Ann Marie Swindler : To someone who's considering trying breakthrough and is on the fence. I would say just come in and give us a try. I never would have come in if I had known the kind of workouts that happen at breakthrough because I would have immediately thought I can't do that. But once I got through the doors, the energy is so contagious, the community is so supportive. The wisdom behind this program is incredible and it works and it is something that will absolutely change your life if you let it. And I can't say enough about how great the experience is and how much I wish everybody had the kind of support and the kind of experience that I've had.
