Jon will no longer be participating in project perfection secondary to some unrelated health issues.  We were honored to have the opportunity to work with him.  His progress over the first 6 weeks was incredible as seen by the photographs below.  Jon lost close to 9 percent bodyfat and approximately 17 pound.  These results were achieved through 6 weeks of adherence to the diet and exercise program.  Jon did not  cheat even 1 day.  Jon achieved these results all naturally, without any performance enhancing supplements.

As promised, here are the photographs of Carley’s progress. As noted below these pictures were taken at 6 week intervals.  Unfortunately, due to some unforeseen problems we will not performing a re-assessment this week.  Please enjoy the photos.  Stay tuned.

5. Make it fun

Stay with us, success is right around the corner.
