After having her daughter, Melissa Scheffler found herself struggling to lose the extra weight. Despite working out and trying to eat healthy on her own, she wasn't seeing the results she hoped for and knew she needed support.

That's when she took a chance on the Andover YMCA bootcamp program. This simple decision led to a life-changing transformation.

With the encouragement of her trainer, Ally, and the support of the YMCA community, Melissa lost 70 pounds and went from a size 16 to a size 8. The numbers only tell part of the story, however.

The greatest transformation wasn't just in how Melissa looked, it was in how she felt. She gained confidence, energy and the ability to show up as the healthy, active mom she wanted to be for her daughter.
