Dawn recently did a micro-derm treatment for me at her office near Five Star Blvd. I’ve had them before, but they’ve always left me with 4-5days of peeling and looking severely sunburned, so bad that I wouldn’t leave my house or go out for that period of time. Major inconvenience. With Dawn I didn’t have this experience, she knew exactly what to do to keep me from ending up like before. I really appreciate her listening to me and taking the extra time to explain the process. Thank you Dawn!
Another outstanding treatment! I’ve been back many many times since my initial review and feel like I have found the best of the best. I have tried almost all the diffrent facials and skin procedures and love them all. Dawn’s microderm abrasion is AWESOME, I have been told I look 10 years younger and now all of my friends are clients of Dawn! They all compliment me for leading them to Dawn so she can work her magic on them too. Dawn uses the best of the best supplies and spares no expense making every visit a unique and special occasion for her clients. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU DAWN! See you next week! I get the ultrasonic micro abrasion and mini-massage. Best facial and mini-massage EVER. Dawn makes me feel so comfortable and leaves my skin feeling great. I plan on having Dawn take care of my skin for a very long time. Click To View Transformation – (XFAT / XLRG Client) – “I grew up as the original athletic tall skinny kid. I always had trouble putting on weight and had lightning fast metabolism. Through heavy lifting over the past twenty-five years or so and lots of calories, I managed to grow to approximately 223 pounds at about 15% body fat. Fast forward to my being introduced to Dawn and XBodyConcepts. I talked with Dawn at length about my fitness goals and told her I had a phobia of getting skinny again, which is the opposite of most people. Dawn somehow convinced me to give her XFAT program a try. I did not mind leaning out but was petrified of the possibility I might lose muscle mass I had worked so hard to gain. Dawn assured me that I would lose body fat and gain lean muscle mass. I took the leap of faith and followed the XFAT plan to a “T.” At the end of twelve weeks my weight had decreased from 223 pounds to 198 pounds and my body fat dropped from 15% to 6.7%. The 6.7% body fat was calculated using a hydrostatic water body fat test which is supposed to be the most accurate available. I was leaner than I had ever been before and still had my muscle mass that I had worked so hard to gain. I am positive I could have continued on a follow-up version of the XFAT program and continued to cut body fat but I had now shifted gears and wanted to bulk up again. Dawn put me on the XLRG program and customized a new meal and workout plan aimed at all out mass gains. At the end of sixteen weeks on the XLRG mass plan I had gained an amazing 41 pounds! I had increased my weight from 198 pounds to 239 pounds. My body fat also increased from 6.7% to 9%. Dawn advised me upfront that the XLRG program was aimed at all out mass gains and that I would definitely put on muscle mass but would surely gain some fat along with the muscle. The XLRG program got me better results than I could have ever imagined. I plan to begin a new hybrid version of the XLRG/XFAT program and am anxious to see the results! Much thanks to Dawn and XBodyConcepts for helping me achieve my goals! (Click to View Transformation) Click to View Transformation – (XFAT Client) – When I began the XFAT program given to me by Dawn I weighed 228 lbs. at 6’3”. I had no idea what my body fat % was because I hadn’t had it tested in a few years. The first thing I would recommend to people is to get the most accurate body fat test done when you begin your program so that you can see the actual composition change taking place in your body. I chose hydrostatic testing because it is considered to be among the most accurate and it also breaks your total weight down into fat lbs. and lean muscle lbs. so you know exactly how much you need to lose if you want to get to a certain body fat %. I also recommend taking a lot of before pictures so that you can see the transformation at the end. Then you will have physical proof! My initial results came back that I was 11.5% body fat. That equated to 26 total lbs. of fat and 202 lbs. of lean muscle. I had always wanted to try to compete in a physique competition but I never felt confident enough in my ability to manipulate my diet enough to drop down into the low single digit body fat range. This where Dawn convinced me that if I followed her program to a “T” I would get the results I was looking for in roughly 3 months time. I was skeptical at first, but I figured I had tried many times on my own to make it happen and could never seem to quite get there so this was my last resort. I followed the meal plan exactly as it was laid out for me and tried my hardest to follow the workout routine as closely as I could manage. I had a few nagging injuries throughout that kept me out of the gym for short periods of time. I never cheated on my diet program because I knew that was where the majority of my results would come from with trying to get to such a low body fat percentage. When I did a follow up body fat test exactly 12 weeks after beginning Dawn’s program my results shocked me to say the least. I had dropped down to 6.5% body fat. My lean mass actually increased by 2 lbs. from 202 to 204 and my fat mass dropped from 26 lbs. down to 14lbs for a total weight of 218 lbs. So roughly I was able to lose 1lb of pure body fat each week while simultaneously adding a couple pounds of muscle in the process! After seeing how lean I had gotten by following the XFAT program I finally had the confidence to enter my first Men’s Physique contest this past weekend on 7/14. I ended up taking 4th place out of 50 competitors and would have placed higher according to the judges had I nailed my posing routine. So all in all, I am very happy with how far I’ve come and I have already committed to doing three more shows before the end of this year. For me, having a deadline like a competition is all the motivation I need to not slack off with my diet. The biggest thing I learned by joining the XBC group (and the XBC Private Facebook Group), is that a community of people supporting each other and rooting for each others success is the true magic that makes these transformations like mine possible. I can honestly say that without the encouragement and daily motivation that I get from the XBC group, I probably would have given up at some point like I had in the past. But the real key to seeing results comes from CONSISTENCY! Never giving up no matter how frustrated you feel or how tired and sick you get of eating the foods that you eat on a daily basis. Because at the end of the journey there is no greater accomplishment than the sense of pride you feel when you complete the program knowing you gave it everything you’ve got. Not to mention you end up looking better than you ever thought possible. Thank you Dawn and all the members of XBC that have encouraged me throughout this process. I am going to continue training and eating like a beast until I earn my Pro Card in the NPC for Men’s Physique! Read Full Testimonial – (XFAT Client) – After running the XBodyConcepts XFAT program I dropped 6% bodyfat !!! I made a significant reduction in my waist size all while putting on a significant amount of muscle! I was shocked at my results and am a true believer in the XBodyConcepts system! I plan to continue on and see how lean and muscular I can get. This is just the beginning of a better me! Thanks Dawn! Dawn is a skin expert. I have sensitive skin and it gets irritated easily. After getting a microdermabrasion and facial every month for the past 7 months with Dawn my skin tone has improved, I have less redness, I hardly ever breakout and I do not have overly oily skin. Worth the drive. Facials are reasonable if you add onto the micro. 🙂 I had the ultrasonic micro dermabrasion. It was a very pleasant experience. My skin felt great afterward. I will go back to see Dawn again. (XFAT (Lite) / XFAT Client) – XFATLTE is formatted for the perfect lifestyle change. XFATLTE took me from a starting weight of 223 lbs and a body fat percentage of 27%, to a weight of 200 lbs. and a body fat percentage of 22% in eight weeks. After completing the XFATLTE program, I started on the XFAT program. On the XFAT program I have dropped my weight from 200 lbs to 188 lbs, and my body fat percentage has dropped from 22% to 17.7%, and I still have a few weeks to go before completing the XFAT plan. So far I have lost a total of 35 lbs while gaining lean muscle mass and have dropped my body fat percentage nearly 10%. My waist size has decreased from 43.5” to 35” a loss of 8.5”!!! There are no extreme diets or workouts that tend to de-motivate people after a month or two. XFATLTE and XFAT are easy to follow and proven effective for extreme fat burning and muscle building. The key to success is simple consistency. This has been by far the most effective fat loss and strength building plan I have ever encountered. Click to View Transformation – (XFAT(Lite) Client) – I have always been the skinny girl who could eat anything and never gain a pound. I was active and played sports, but indulged in whatever food I wanted. I had never been on a “diet” my entire life. Five years ago, after some big life changes, I got back into running and trained hard for many races and ran my first half marathon. I cross trained and included swimming and mountain biking in my daily routine. I ate restrictively, but not necessarily healthy or balanced for a runner. I had a love hate relationship with running. I enjoyed the social aspect and the feeling of accomplishment, but dreaded training, the agony of race day, and always felt sick after the event. It would take days to recover and many parts of my body ached and felt beat up. It never got easier and progress was measured in minute miles and distance versus how I felt. After some injuries and life’s demands I pulled back, stopped signing up for races and just restricted my food intake to maintain my weight. I was tired all the time. Sleep was maybe 4 hours a night, but never consecutive. Happy hour was not just reserved for weekends and after awhile I started to see changes in my body shape and not positive ones. I became the skinny fat girl! I saw Dawn’s transformation on Facebook and was in awe. Such a beautiful women who now had a body that was staggeringly stunning. I read Dawn’s posts and started reading the stories and transformation of her clients. I saw Dawn in person in March and was mystified by how happy healthy and hot she looked! In May I pulled the trigger and signed up. I weighed in at 119 with 19.23% body fat. It was shocking to see my before pictures documenting my start on this journey. I was used to looking skinny and seeing 108 when I jumped on the scale. Dawn started me on the XFAT LITE program to ease me in. The first two weeks on the new eating plan were torture. A big shift in what and how often I was eating. No candy? No wheat beers or IPAs? No cereal for dinner? Oh boy was my body in for a shock. This was a cleanse for me. I saw the eating plan and thought this will be a miracle if I can do this for one day without cheating! I did ok the first 5 days (my two girls would say I was a grumpy mama!) and then had a bad day and fell off the plan and ate too many doughnuts and a box of Mike and Ike’s. The next day I was very surprised how icky I felt. Saturday and Sunday were “get back on track” days and I renewed my commitment to stick to the plan no matter what. Each day got easier. I started to feel better and I was sleeping through the night. My body adjusted to this new “eat to fuel” way of meals and the workouts and there was no turning back. After 3 weeks my girls started noticing the changes in my mood, outlook, and appearance! In 4 weeks my weight stayed the same but I lost 2% body fat! I went swimsuit shopping with my 6 foot 1 fifteen year old glamazon daughter and it was bitter sweet. I had to go down a size but I still had much work to do to achieve my goal. Confidence in my own skin. Feeling great, strong and beautiful in a bikini. At 41 this was more work than I ever imagined. It was hard to admit that this would not come easy. I would get the results if I did the work at 100%. Progress continues and a week and a half ago I graduated to the XFAT plan and I have remained committed. My results after four weeks on the XFAT LITE program are I am down to 116 pounds and 14.6% body fat (a loss of 4.6% body fat in four weeks!). I have turned the corner. I am amazed that this was always within me. I am setting a healthy example for my precious girls that success can be measured in how we look externally but success is achieved with the balance in how we feel about ourselves. Healthy, happy and hot! If you are teetering on the edge of whether Dawn’s plans can work for you, trust me, take the leap of faith and commit! It works whatever your goals are. If you follow her plan you will achieve success. What do have to lose? Just some body fat and maybe some insecurities. Shedding those two things in your 40’s is priceless. When I finish my journey on the XFAT plan I will have Dawn post my updated pictures and you’ll see being “skinny” is not all it’s made out to be. I’m now my own measuring stick! I want to be a lifetime XFAT girl! (Click to View Transformation) I had a great experience with Dawn! Very friendly, not pushy, truly cares about your needs. Great location, cute building and even cuter studio! Her years of experience and passion for her work truly shows!
