Could you tell me a little bit about Arvanh’s program?
Yeah I can tell you a lot about his program he has going on. So before I started this, I weighed 187 lbs and he helped me lose damn near 30 lbs. I’m officially in the 150s. He takes you from “okay we are going to build momentum, improve your metabolism, build all sorts of things including your muscles”. Not only are you losing weight, not only are you learning how to eat healthier, what is good and what is not good. Not only are you gaining muscle, you are also losing weight.
How do you know Arvanh?
So we actually went to school together. I met him back in ’07. I’m going to keep it short and sweet to the point because this is a really long story. Anyways, I’ve known him for many many years. He’s started up this program and I’ve been trying to lose weight for a very long time now. I just didn’t know how to do it by myself. I tried. I succeeded. I failed. And then I got back to right where I was. I had no idea what the heck I was doing. So when he posted on instagram talking about his program, and that he was looking to start training people and training people and helping people and improving people’s self-esteem, I was all down for it. I was like heck yeah. So I reached out to him, asked him a bunch of questions, see if he would take me underneath his wing, and he did.
What did he do to help you on your journey?
So for one, now I watch everything I put into my body. When I go out to eat, I just don’t just order – now I share my French fries with my son now isn’t of being a boss hog.
I don’t drink sodas anymore. For one, they’re horrible for your teeth. Two, he completely show me…you can still eat what you want and still look good. If that makes any sense. You just need to know how much and when to eat it. So he’s helped me out a lot.
How did he make you feel?
So he made me feel really good when I felt really really down. As a woman and a mom who officially has stretch marks, that’s something that’s hard to do. He opened my eyes to going “if I eat two buttercups I’m going to go back to what I was doing before. So let’s change this up and eat one buttercup.”
Should I reach out to him?
Yes. Yes!!! If you need any help as far as reaching out to him, I have his phone number and I’d be more than happy to give it to you. He’s the best trainer I’ve ever met and I highly recommend him.
Any last words?
I couldn’t thank him enough honestly. This is a really hard journey, it’s really hard for most people to even succeed in. Now I’m to the point where I’m to my goal weight – how low can I truly get. I couldn’t have done it without Arvanh and that’s the God honest truth.
