This is a response to my previous review. To be honest, I would like to be done with this company,…read morebut I cannot let a business owner leave a reply that is not true at all. Nicole, your reply to my review is not true. I honestly cannot believe the audacity that you have to blatantly not tell the truth in your response. 1. I did not lose a "good amount of weight" by working out with you and I was not even close to my goal weight. I'm not sure why you would even say that. 2. I did not quit for "personal" reasons. I had to stop because of medical reasons for a period of time. My goal was to only stop during the duration of my recovery from radiation per my Oncologist's/Endocrinologist's request. If you are talking about personal: I did share with you that my father in law had passed away during the time of my recovery, but that had nothing to do with us continuing to train. 3. Yes, I did ask for a refund because of my unforeseen medical situation. I had been in the hospital twice and I shared with you that my father in law had passed away and I could use that money to help with arrangements and I would have gladly picked back up my training with you when I was 100% better. - You never responded to my text - When you finally did (almost a week later) you were rude and very cold - You made things VERY awkward - You got upset when I started to hold you accountable for promises already made in regards to my training, training session times, and money arrangements. 4. I DID NOT CHOOSE TO END MY TRAINING. YOU CHOSE TO END MY TRAINING BY GOING BACK ON WHAT YOU SAID TO ME. You didn't like that I was holding you accountable for things that you said and did during the duration of our short time training. You said: "I was trying to be kind and let you keep them indefinitely even though I didn't have to. To be honest when you come at me like this it makes me regret doing so" and by coming at you, you must be referring to me keeping you accountable for what you said, trying to figure out when I would get my last training sessions in with you, and not just let you keep my hard earned money. 5. You have NEVER sent me my workouts! EVER! I have asked you at least 4-5 times and you never sent them to me. As a matter of fact I finally had to tell you never mind I will type up what I can remember from the workouts. You are 100% not telling the truth by saying you would "resend" workouts that you provided me because YOU NEVER SENT THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE. 6. Per your contract, which I'm sure you're familiar with it states: CUT CLAUSE: Invictus Fitness reserves the right to end your program at any time for any reason. If this should happen with paid workouts remaining you receive a pro-rated refund. Well, you cut me. WHERE IS MY REFUND? If you didn't cut me, then why did you block my number? Why did you make promises and then go back on them? How can an honest business woman do that? HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO TRAIN WITH YOU AGAIN AND GET WHAT I PAID FOR WHEN YOU BLOCKED ME AND WON'T RESPOND BACK TO ME. Lastly, I do not need a copy of my contract because I have one and clearly you don't follow your own contact anyway, I do not need to train with you ever again and clearly that wasn't your intention either because you blocked my number, and I don't need any workout information from you because clearly you would have given me the information the first time I asked for it. What I do need is for you to be an honest business woman and for you to have integrity within your company to fulfill your end of obligations when asked from a client. I would also like for honesty to be spoken. There is no need to not tell the truth when handling business arrangements and fulfilling promises made between two people when your client is just trying to hold you accountable for your words and actions. *I added a picture of Nicole's first response* *I added another picture of Nicole's second response* ***UPDATE TO NICOLE'S SECOND RESPONSE*** I asked for a refund and you said no, ok that's fine. This has nothing to do with that, it is everything else, but I get it, you're trying to save face. I'm not frustrated. I'm just letting everyone know what type of person you are and how you run your business. I didn't refuse an offer because no offer was given to me. You blocked me. It's ok, I have proof of all my "claims/events". I hope you can find it in your heart to run your business better and stop taking people's money. Thanks!

I wanted to drop some weight, get fitter, and feel stronger. Nicole came to my house twice a week to train me, and she was the right balance of encouraging and challenging. She never made me feel bad for not being able to do something but trained me at the level I was at and pushed me to do better week after week. She also gave me pointers on my diet, which was immensely helpful in helping me drop weight. In addition to training, Nicole is just an all around awesome person and I enjoyed our time each week to chat and catch up while we worked out. I've lost 30 pounds, 17 inches, and 14% body fat, and I've never felt better. I'm motivated to continue on with my healthy lifestyle and to keep getting fitter. I wish I could give Nicole more than five stars in my review-she's amazing!

I've been taking cuddle sessions with Kristi for about 3 months bi-weekly as of this review. And I…read morewill say, she is a fantastic cuddler! Her cuddling space is warm and welcoming. Every session, Kristi makes it clear that we agree to respect each others boundaries and encourages communication to make sure that my needs are met during our session. From there, she asks what kind of cuddling positions or exercises I'd like to do. It took communication and several sessions to find out what works well for me. She even has a book full of cuddle positions if I'm not sure or want to try something new. I prefer to start with a deep breathing exercise. Then I usually go for the "head on chest" cuddle position or spooning. Lately, I've also asked Kristi to lay over top of me face down. That position really helps to relieve tension. While we are cuddling, I am free to tell Kristi whatever is on my mind. She is nonjudgmental and makes me feel welcome and safe to let out my inner ramblings. Kristi can talk your ear off too, but ask her be more of a listener and she will respect your wishes. With this past year feeling quite lonely and tough due to the pandemic, it's been a blessing to have someone to cuddle and talk with regularly. I leave each session feeling a warm glow in my soul, an inner calmness and a clear head. My housemates have even mentioned how much I'm glowing when I come home from a session. If you're feeling touch starved or just feel like cuddling and maybe don't know who to go to for your cuddling needs, I highly recommend Kristi's services!

It's difficult for me to find a way to describe the impact training with Ceci has had on my life…read more So i've decided to break this review down into a few different subtopics to help explain. These are weight loss, strength, relationship with food, and self-love. To provide a bit of a background, I decided to start training with Ceci after my engagement. I had just finished four years of law school and gained 25 pounds, had unhealthy eating habits, and was not feeling confident at all. Once I got the ring on my finger, I knew I wanted to look a certain way for my wedding day, and I knew I wanted to build healthy habits for the long term. Here's what I've found... Weight Loss I am 5'2 and most of my adult life I've weighed between 130-135 pounds. By the end of law school I weighed 155 and was so unhappy. I ate junk food, drank soda, and lived a sedentary life. When I started training with Ceci and learned about food, I started losing weight. The different was that unlike other diets I've done where I would lose weight quickly but then gain it all back, I've lost the weight slowly with Ceci...and I've kept it off! Right now I'm at 140 after 6 months of training and I feel AMAZING! My wedding isn't until next year so I'm not in a rush to reach my goal of 130 but I cannot stress enough how amazing it feels not to yoyo and to be able to have the tools to keep and maintain the weight I've lost! Strength While training with Ceci, I've learned how to work out. I've worked muscles in my body I didn't even know existed! I went from barely being able to lift 10 pound weights more than 5 times without my arms visibly shaking, to now comfortably chest pressing with 15 pound weights on each arm! Little victories go a long way. However, with this new found strength, I've noticed my body change even more. Not only am I losing weight, but my body shape is changing. My legs are more tone, my butt is lifted, my waist is smaller. I had to get all my suits and slacks for work tailored by 2-3 inches at the waist! It was such an exciting feeling to visibly see the change, even though it isn't always reflected on the scale. Relationship With Food I think we all can agree that at one point or another in our lives we have had an unhealthy relationship with food. Whether it is stress eating, binging, or not eating at all, our relationship with food is a reflection of our internal emotional well being. In an attempt to lose weight on my own, I would try to really cut down my consumption, to the point that I was really hungry. Sure, I lost the weight, but with diets like that, after losing 20 pounds in three months, I gained 25 back just as fast. Prior to training with Ceci, I didn't fully understand what food did for our bodies. Ceci taught me the importance of eating balanced meals made with whole ingredients. She taught me that when reading the nutritional facts in my foods, don't just look at calories, look at the ingredients. For example, Smart Balance may be less calories than butter, but butter is a whole ingredient whereas Smart Balance is all chemicals. It's little things like this that were very eye opening for me. Also, you wouldn't believe my excitement when Ceci wanted me to eat MORE food rather than less. I was losing weight by eating MORE FOOD!!! Why? Because I was eating nutrient dense food that was fueling my body. It has made all the difference. Ceci also taught me not to punish myself for having a treat. She did this my teaching me moderation. Yes, you can have a cookie, but don't eat a whole sleeve. Going out for pizza tonight? No worries, just make sure you eat clean for Breakfast and Lunch. She taught me balance. Self-Love When I started training with Ceci, I confided to her how I was really insecure about my body. I felt like maybe once I get my body back, I will be happy. Ceci stopped that thought and told me that getting a body won't bring happiness; I have to figure out what is making me so unhappy. The root of it was the fact that I was so disappointed in myself for letting myself go. She told me I need to be kinder to myself and to love my body because as imperfect as it may be it is healthy and it works - it is my body. She constantly reminds me of how beautiful I am and reminds me to be confident. I've fallen more in love with my body as I've seen in change and watched it become stronger. Yes, it feels great to lose weight, but it feels even better knowing that I now have to tools to take care of my body, keep it strong, and most importantly, stay healthy. Overall, I would highly recommend Ceci to anyone looking to make a lifestyle change that is long lasting and effective. She truly cares about her clients and wants to see them succeed. She is supportive, motivative, and encouraging. I cannot imagine myself being where I am today without having Ceci as my trainer!
