I friend of mine posted "Destination Jumpstart" on Facebook. I spoke her and asked "What is this Destination Jumpstart?" She told me it was a business one of her clients had started to help people get back into fitness and this Teresa lady who owned this business lived in our area (East side of Washington State), but the main business was in Moclips, Washington (West side of Washington State). I have never heard of Moclips! After figuring out where Moclips was, I went to the Destination Jumpstart website and was even more intrigued, it's beautiful there. The first email to Destination Jumpstart was the easiest, yet hardest thing I ever did. I was finally saying I NEED HELP! Teresa made me feel so comfortable in our communications as well as in her home at Moclips. I enjoy exercising, but had gotten away from a regular routine. I was so out of shape, but willing to give it my all after all what did I have to lose? My right knee had two surgeries for a torn meniscus so I was concerned about pain. With guidance I have built muscle around my knee which is what physical therapy said to do quite some time ago. My knee hasn't bothered me at all with the personal routine established for me! In the past every time I tried to use the elliptical my knee would hurt the next day, but now I am up to 10 minutes straight with no pain, just a lot of sweat. I continue to grow in strength but not in pant size. The Destination Jumpstart page for members only has been such an encouragement, support, sounding board, group of people who understand where you've come from and where you want to go I just want to hug them all.
Destination Jumpstart is always there if we have any questions, need to talk to Teresa and she keep us on the up and up with weigh in, even though there are those tough weeks.
I would highly recommend anyone participate in Destination Jumpstart, you won't regret it and it's amazing how much you learn about yourself when you spend 6 days concentrating on YOU! After all, it's the rest of your life you have to look forward to.
P.S.
To Whom Ever may read this, I am 5'2" and started Destination Jumpstart 7/14/13 at 274 pounds and size 24. I am now 237 pounds 2/20/14 size 16/18
