Patty - Orland Hills, IL
Patty has been training for almost 2 years and has participated in 2 of the Edge Challenges! She’s lost over 150lbs and continues to stay determined and motivated to better herself every single day!
Here’s what Patty shared about her journey thus far:
“I joined the Edge before the opening day. I was recovering from a debilitating illness and was just medically released to start moving again. I had chronic fatigue, and even slight movement, like walking from the parking lot to the locker room was completely exhausting. I have worked hard to reclaim my health and build some strength. I am grateful for Melissa, and The Edge. I feel stronger than I have in decades. I have lost a lot of weight, about 75% of what I needed to lose. That said, losing has never been as important to me as gaining. I have gained the strength and stamina to engage in life in so many ways I never thought possible. For me, trying to do a little more than I did last week, go a little further, lift a little heavier, stretch a bit more has brought me success and I intend to keep building on that with a heart full of gratitude.”

Elizabeth - Cherry Hill, NJ
“Recently, Elizabeth dedicated the last 2 months of her life to becoming the best version of herself. She completed and WON the Summer Weight Loss Challenge! Starting at 156 pounds and 35% body fat, she got down to 120 pounds and 20% body fat—while gaining muscle.
This didn’t just happen overnight though. She seriously worked her tail off, coming in 6–7 times a week and getting in extra work and cardio. She deserved every part of this win—she’s one of the hardest working people I know!”

Allie - Bristol, CT
"I joined The Edge Challenge to push myself outside my comfort zone and become a stronger, healthier mom of 3 and I can proudly say I DID THAT. After losing 100 pounds and working so hard to maintain it, I knew it was time to shift my focus. It was time to get strong. And that’s exactly what I’ve been doing.From waking up at 4am to hitting the gym by before 5:30am, to running my first 5K in 20 years (28:52), this journey has been nothing short of amazing. The classes, the coaches, and the incredible community at The Edge made all the difference.
A huge shoutout to Coach Liz, Eric and my entire team. You pushed me, supported me, and believed in me. This challenge wasn’t just physical, it was mental. For those 45 minutes, I wasn’t thinking about my to-do list or mom life. I was showing up for ME . And guess what? This isn’t the end. It’s just the beginning. I’m on a mission to be the fittest I’ve ever been by 40 and I’m only getting started"
