Earlier this year, I finally bit the bullet and decided that a concerted effort would be made to get myself fit again.  I had been a keen sportswoman in my earlier years, but over the years like many others, life got in the way and keeping fit became secondary to looking after my children and running my business.  A chance meeting with a friend who was looking fabulous (Yes, Gill Woods thats you!) led to an introduction to Gaynor Stobie at B-Fit.

Following the birth of my second child in July 2011, I really wanted to improve my general level of fitness as well as boost my health and well-being. I remembered how, after having my first child, I had permanently felt run down and devoid of energy, especially once I went back to work, so I was determined to change that this time around.

I started with BFit in September 2011 participating in both personal training sessions as well as an evening boot camp. Gaynor set realistic goals upfront and constantly reminded me of these during each workout, using them to motivate me as the sessions got harder. She designed phased fitness programs tailored to the areas I particularly wanted to target and continued to push me to improve. She also introduced me to new ideas in nutrition.

16 weeks later I have lost 23lbs and 16cm off my abs which meant I could fit back into my pre-pregnancy jeans (one of my personal goals). However, the real benefit has been how I feel in general. I have so much more energy now and feel happy and healthy (even when the baby has been up all night teething) and I can now spend quality time with my children without constantly feeling tired all the time. I have really enjoyed my training sessions with Gaynor, she is a very approachable and friendly person and I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone wanting to achieve similar results.

The boot camp at B-Fit was hard work, but well worth the time, money and effort- Gaynor made each session fun, and the exercises, together with the nutritional advice, really made a difference to my shape in a relatively short time. Although we exercised in a group, there was always time for individual advice from Gaynor with the result that I am now much more confident about exercising and eating properly. I would recommend Gaynor and B-Fit to others who are relatively new to exercise, like me, without hesitation.

Gaynor is a motivational machine! An immensely positive person to work with. A champion of health and fitness and a true legend in the fitness world. Gaynor is the ultimate professional .She is friendly and easy to talk to but more importantly she knows what she is talking about. There are few trainers I would rate as highly as Gaynor.

Following the birth of my second child I quickly realised the extra pregnancy weight was not going to drop off like it does for celebrity mums, Gaynor was recommended to me by a friend and I have been absolutely delighted with the results. Since January 2011 I have lost 14lb and 9 cm off my waist through exercise and healthy food choices, without ' dieting'.

The weight loss and inch loss has been steady and with Gaynor's continued support I am confident that this will continue. The weekly group training sessions with Gaynor have kept me motivated plus regular e-mails with delicious recipes also help so you do not get bored with your food. If you are looking for ongoing support, motivation and guaranteed results I cannot recommend Gaynor enough - Thanks Gaynor!

In April this year I finally bit the bullet and decided to get fit. A friend had recommended Gaynor to me. As a Mum of two with my own business to run, I never seemed to be able to find the time to exercise and over the years of being stuck behind a desk the rot had set in. With some trepidation I arrived at my first session. timed to suit me. Gaynor immediately put me at ease, speaking to me at length about nutrition and exercise.

The "D" word (diet!) is banned and shifting from the mind set of "dieting" was crucial. Gaynor introduced me to lifestyle changes that embraced both exercise and nutrition. With her encouragement and infectious motivation I was able to embrace her recommendations and so began the journey back to healthy living. With Gaynor Ive lost nearly 2 stone and feel 100% better.

I started a course with Gaynor in April 2010, having not done any proper exercise for many years (and it was always a chore!!),  so I was quite apprehensive, but keen to see how I'd get on.

Well, Gaynor has changed my life ..... and my body shape!!  I've sensibly lost weight, purely through the diet and nutrition advice from Gaynor - I'm not on any form of diet, just a completely different approach to what I eat..... and I've never felt better!!!!

I actually look forward to my sessions - Gaynor motivates me and has made it an enjoyable process!!! All my wobbly bits have become toned, I have lost a stone in weight..... and it's now a pleasure trying clothes on!!!
I can't thank Gaynor enough for what's she's done for me and highly recommend her!!!

I was first introduced to Gaynor in February after moaning to a friend of mine that I could not shift my stubborn flabby waistline after my 3rd baby. I felt constantly tired and found any form of exercise a real chore.

After an initial consultation, lifestyle analysis and nutrition review ,Gaynor helped me set realistic and attainable goals on a monthly basis that I could fit around my busy family life style.

I have really enjoyed Gaynor’s professional and fun approach to exercise and with a programme tailored to me, to include an array of exercises that I actually enjoy and even a music CD with all my favourite tunes to motivate me , I have made huge progress.

Over the last 8 weeks, without any dieting or spending hours in the gym, I have dropped 2 dress sizes, lost 3 inches from my waist and my weight has dropped by 10 lbs. My core strength and fitness have increased significantly and it has given me the confidence to start running. Next year my aim is to take part in a 10k race for charity.

Gaynor has always been reliable, enthusiastic and well prepared for our sessions and I now enjoy exercise and have incorporated it into my every day life. I cannot recommend her highly enough and I will be training with her for a long time to come!

I've progressed more in 12 weeks with B-Fit than I have in 3 years on my own at my local gym. I feel like a different person and am amazed at the results. I've lost 18 lb, feel really toned and so much stronger.

Gaynor doesn't just improve your fitness, she sorts out your lifestyle! She always motivates me and uses her knowledge and skill to push me to the next level. I couldn't have done it without her!

I am a financial advisor and this has been one of the best investments I have ever made!

I highly recommend Gaynor as a "professional fitness guru". She has transformed the life of my 16 year old daughter.

In a relaxed, friendly,one to one enviroment she has:

• improved my daughter's overall health & fitness with her expert techniques and practical nutritional advise ,without calorie counting or dieting.
• improved her mental and physical strength, along with her vitality & energy levels.
• drastically changed/improved her body shape, losing inches and a stone and a half in 12 weeks!
• massively improved her confidence, the way she looks and her posture.

My daughter really looks forward to her weekly training sessions with Gaynor and has gained lots of invaluable health and fitness ideas, that will benefit her for the rest of her life.
