Dear Downsize Fitness Members, we hope that you enjoyed your Holidays and feel ready to embrace and continue on with your journeys! We want to also thank you for choosing us to help coach, guide and support you while you achieve success! Something NEW that we will be “rolling out” this year in the Houston location is called “My Diet Coach”. My Diet Coach will complement the already successful monthly nutrition coaching that you currently enjoy. You will now have the ability to personally interact 1-on-1 with our Certified Nutritionist, Melanie Daly, directly 24/7 via email. This is HUGE! You will now have at your disposal the ability to ask questions regarding anything nutrition or diet related in real-time! You can even send her photos to ask her opinion on say: menu items/choices when eating out, which are better when shopping, etc. In addition, we will be BETA testing a weekly online group video Q&A session in which she will answer questions and expand on specifics from the current or previous months’ nutrition classes that you attended at Downsize. Melanie Daly is a Certified Nutritionist, author of the Downsize Fitness nutrition curriculum, a published Health and Fitness author, 4 time “Top 10 trainers in Austin” recipient, Multiple Gold Medal winner in the International Natural Body Building Association – taking the Gold at the 2011 Olympia, She holds a Master’s Degree in education, has completed 9 marathons, is mother of a Navy recruit and has struggled with weight and eating issues during her lifetime as well. We will be providing you the specific email addresses and links in the near future. Our goal today is to just let you know of the incredible new program that we are bringing to you, as a Downsize member, in the New Year. As always, as a dedicated and committed member, this added resource will be provided to you at no additional cost. Thank you again for your patience during our initial opening, as well as your commitment and dedication to changing your life! If you are NOT a member yet, what better time than the NEW YEAR to begin your weight loss journey with US!

I have been overwhelmed with inquiries about offering a "gift package" for the holidays. We have created a special "2 month" gift package that will allow you to give someone you care about the chance to win their life back. If you want more information on this package please email me directly at grover@downsizefitness.com and give the gift of LIFE!

Fact of the day: You will NEVER reach a goal that you haven't set!

We are passionate about what we do and truly want everyone to be healthy. The first step to becoming healthier is to know where you are regarding your body. If you do not have a "baseline" then it is virtually impossible to gauge your progress and modify your program as needed. One way that we can assist is to offer a BCA (Body Composition Analysis) to anyone regardless of membership status. Everyone should have a BCA done at least every quarter (once a month is best). We offer this analysis at an incredibly low price of only $75.00 (free for members). If you have family or friends please have them stop in or schedule a time to have their first analysis done. For larger groups we can come to your office, work or home. The information that will be provided is: Total Body Weight, Fat Mass, Fat Percentage, Muscle Mass, Fat Free Mass, Bone Mass (can you say osteoporosis?), Metabolic Age, BMI, Impedance, Degree of Obesity, BMR, Visceral Fat rating, Total Body Water Weight, Total Body Water Percentage.
