If you're looking to invest in building the best version of yourself, you're in the right place. Working with Je' of Battle Fitness, I've lost 40 pounds and 10% body fat and maintained it for years!
Before working with Je', I spent most of my life between a size 12 and 14. Not quite plus-size, but never truly comfortable in my own skin. Since puberty, food had been my crutch—especially ultra-processed foods that helped me cope but never really healed anything. As I approached my mid-30s, my weight kept creeping up, and no diet or workout plan ever seemed to stick. I knew something had to change, and it did when I started working with Je at Battle Fitness.
Je' isn't just a coach—she became a constant in my life. As a Battle Fitness client for 6 years and counting, Je has been by my side through job changes, family deaths, home relocations, a broken ankle, and more. Through every twist and turn, Je has been a steady, encouraging presence. I've lost weight, gained weight, and lost again—but she's never given up on me.
Je has changed how I think—our regular 1-1 consulting makes a real difference in my focus on my goals. She's patient, but not too patient—I went from not understanding what I was putting into my body to building a deeper awareness of how nutrition pairs with my training. With her help, exercise and meal planning stopped being things I dreaded—they became acts of self-care crucial to my long-term physical and mental health.
When I first joined Battle Fitness, I trained with Je' in person, but transitioning to a virtual semi-private personal training setting was the game changer for me. Not having to commute to and from sessions while experiencing the same high-quality personal training helped me establish consistent workout habits and rituals no matter my location. I also love witnessing the transformation of other clients; it is so inspiring.
With a career in international development, my schedule and location are anything but predictable. Je's virtual remote training sessions have kept me grounded no matter where I am in the world. I've worked with Battle Fitness on three continents, and no matter the time zone, Jé always does her best to accommodate my training no matter what equipment I have access to.
I'm proud of how I've transformed my mindset, habits, and relationship with my body by working with Battle Fitness. Heading into my 40s, I'm a size 4, and I feel stronger, more confident, and better equipped to take on whatever life throws at me—because I know Je will have my back.
