ABOUT JENNIFER CASEY

My weight loss journey began back in November of 2010. My 3 year old son Bryce said to me, “Why does your butt shake when you walk?” That was it for me. I knew even before the comment that I needed to lose weight. At 220lbs, this was the final straw. I decided to join weight watchers and had some success. However, I knew I needed to do more. I heard about this new fad called Zumba. The Zumba classes were fun and I started going to classes twice a week. I also found a new type of workout class called “Body Combat.” It was something I really enjoyed and I was getting close to my goal weight. In January 2012 my weight loss stopped; I hit a plateau. That is when we found out we were pregnant with our 4th child, Lily! After Lily was born I got right back to eating healthy and exercising. I did some workout videos and tried the South Beach Diet. I lost about 30 lbs. I decided to join our local gym. With eating healthy, exercising 4 or 5 days a week I started to drop more weight! In March of 2014 I started running. Something I never thought I could ever do! I made a goal for myself to do my first 5K in May of 2014 with some friends from work. We completed the 5K which was awesome! I did my second 5K in July 2014 and third in October 2014! I was so proud of myself and felt strong! In March of 2015 I decided to push myself even further. I wanted to help others reach their weight loss goals so I started training to teach Les Mills Body Combat! I became certified to teach Combat in June 2015! Also in June 2015 I hit my goal weight of 135lbs! For the first time since getting married in 2004, I was at a healthy weight! In February of 2016 I became certified to teach Metafit. A body weight training class. Currently I am working to build muscle and get stronger and leaner! I am now a Personal Trainer, Genetics Based Fitness Coach, teach group fitness, Online Fitness Coaching and use a line of customized supplements with my clients! I want to continue to help other women reach their fitness goals and set a good example for my children!
