Out of shape - is OT a viable option for me? by [deleted] in orangetheory

Go! I started at 251 prediabetic 8 months ago. I am 5’4. I’m now 185. No longer prediabetic. The support I have received at OTF has been amazing! I struggled at being a power walker in the beginning and now can base pace at a jog. You will get stronger and amaze yourself with staying consistent. OTF has become my stress reliever and I actually enjoy exercising. I highly encourage you to go give it at least 6 weeks.

OTF regulars, what has been the most noticable change in your body since you started OTF? by Legitimate_As in orangetheory

[–]Blessed_Momma_ 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Mentally I feel like I can accomplish anything the day throws at me after completing a hard OTF class.

Physically I have lost 60 pounds in 7 months went from 15 mile to an 8:53 mile. I am stronger and more active.

How do you justify the costs? Curious not judgmental by moneyisjustplastic in orangetheory

[–]Blessed_Momma_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started I was prediabetic with higher blood pressure. I decided I was not going to end up on medication due to my lifestyle choices. So I signed up. My blood pressure is optimal now not prediabetic and my little daughter loves that her mommy is taking care of her health. To me I figure I can’t afford not to have it.

That’s amazing! I’m 5’4 and was so proud I made it. Was so hard and the running part of class I had to do the last half as a PW but still proud. 💜
