Weight Loss in Port Moody
If you’ve tried to shed those extra pounds before, but just the thought of spending hours just nibbling on rice cakes and celery is a big turn off, let alone sticking to a diet of it, you’ll be happy to know there’s a better way. We will provide all the help you need for weight loss in Port Moody, but won’t ever put you on a diet. We will, however, teach you how to eat healthier. We can help you with a menu that’s budget saving, too. The foods aren’t expensive or exotic. In fact, I love to do my shopping at the Port Moody Farmers Market. The vendors are local and there’s a lot of organically grown vegetables and free range meat selections.
Eating healthy isn’t dieting.
When you go on a diet, you either have to eat special foods, eat tiny amounts or narrow the foods you eat to a small group, leaving you feeling deprived. When you eat healthy, you can buy the foods anywhere, eat far more than you ever expected and love every minute of it. You’ll even have mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks. You’ll learn how to eat healthy even when you’re eating in restaurants or at a party. It doesn’t mean you have to give up all the foods you love either, but you will have to eat them less often and make sure you use portion control.
Exercising on a regular basis is the second key to weight loss.
At Eagle Ridge Fitness, we have the best personal trainers in the area. Not only do we choose them based on their abilities and training, we provide additional training too. The trainers don’t use a cookie cutter approach, but listen to your goals, consider your body type, learn any special needs, particularly those that create physical limitations, and assess your four fitness levels; strength, flexibility, endurance and balance. Only then do they create a personalized fitness program.
This two pronged approach makes it easier to shed pounds.
Everything about the plan is geared specifically for you and your body type. Not only does the healthy diet show you foods that are smarter choices, lower in calories and higher in nutrition, they’re the best ones for your particular body type that will help you lose weight fast. The exercise burns extra calories and builds muscle tissue. When you replace fat tissue with muscle tissue, you’ll not only look fitter and trimmer, you’ll also burn more calories. Muscle tissue uses more calories than fat tissue does.
> Not only will you not feel starved, you’ll be bursting with extra energy. You’ll have energy to spare and may even go for a night of drop-in hockey at the Port Moody Recreation Complex to burn even more calories.
> You’ll be beach ready and looking great. You’ll want to enjoy the warmer waters at White Pine Beach to show off your new figure and enjoy your new high energy level.
> Not only will you lose weight and be healthier, when you use the information on healthy eating to make your family meals, they’ll benefit too.
We will help you lose weight and learn how to keep it off permanently. We know we’re successful when you can do without our services and manage your weight on your own.
Having been a competitive figure skater I had been in great physical shape all my life, without having to think about it. When I hit my mid 30’s I was starting to gain weight and was not able to develop an effective plan to take the weight off and get back into shape. I was concerned that a program lifting weights would over-develop my muscles and I would end up looking mannish. I‘m now 43 and have regained my strength, tone and definition – my arms (including what used to be “bat-wings” have never looked better! I feel better than I have in years and it is in a large part due to my work with Sam! I’ve been able to incinerate inches and fat off my problem areas. I toned my hips, butt, and inner thighs. I look and feel great in my new bikini.
I came into ERF on a whim one day completely terrified of what I might face as health and fitness was not my favorite subject. I was very self conscious about starting an exercise program as I was very out of shape. From when I first walked in to ERF I felt welcomed and my self consciousness faded away. That was 3 years ago now and I have lost and maintained over 50 lbs and continue to grow stronger every workout. The staff are awesome, supportive, friendly and very motivating. Highly recommend to anyone looking to lose weight, gain strength or just feel great!!
