“I have lost approximately 65 lbs. with Coach Berry!”

My name is Miriam Wright and I have lived near R.B. Berry for as long as my husband and I have lived on this base. When Coach Berry started his exercise classes, he came over and invited my husband and I to take a look at his equipment and even extended an invitation to join his classes. Well, needless to say, I turned down that invitation. I used to see all of “Berry’s Ladies” in the driveway doing weight training or walking/jogging down the street on a daily basis. Yes, I saw the improvements each lady made as the weeks passed. As I lay in the hospital, I thought about how much I would give to be able to take part in some of the activities of “Berry’s Ladies” and not be lying a hospital.

Within a day or two of being released from the hospital, I marched over to Coach Berry’s gym and told him that I wanted to join his class! I was afraid at first, because I didn’t think that I could keep up with everyone else. I was afraid that others would make fun of me because I was so much heavier than they were. Boy was I wrong! From the first minute I began to work out, all of the ladies were kind and complimentary towards me. When the workout was hard, they would tell me “you can do it!”…”Hey, you are doing better than you did yesterday”. I tell you, that made all the difference. Coach Berry taught me that not eating is NOT the way to lose weight. He has taught me that I can do anything I put my mind to. Coach Berry has a saying – “its mind over matter”. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter, just do it!” I have found this to be true when I go the extra mile.

I have lose approximately 65 lbs. with Coach Berry and now I work out in the evening with my husband. Now we both go jogging and lift weights – that kind of workout! Did I mention that my husband was overseas when I began my program? Well, he was certainly very pleasantly surprised to see me and has told me many times that he is very proud of me for making the effort to lose my weight.

If you have read this far I have just one thing left to say to you:

“WHY ARE YOU STILL READING? IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO MAKE A COMMITMENT TO YOURSELF AND YOUR HEALTH! IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO WORKOUT WITH COACH BERRY! IT HAS WORKED (AND IS STILL WORKING) FOR ME AND IT WILL WORK FOR YOU!”
