meet cristal: our OG fab fitbooker. the ultimate fitbook fan for the past seven years - looooong before we graced target shelves or the pages of SELF magazine - she’s the kind of devotee-turned-dear-friend who sends bottles of wine to our offices on fitbook birthdays, joins our chief fitlosopher when she calls for team recruits to run a half-marathon to raise money for cancer, and will absolutely always be the first to order any bright new shiney fitlosophy products. so when cristal saw our chief doing whole30, she was intrigued. its non-scale-victory messaging really spoke to her, and she once again decided to take an angela-inspired leap of faith.

and with fitbook lite by her side, she totally crushed it, racking up a list of non-scale victories a mile long, not to mention shedding 8 pounds + countless inches.

#fitbookwhole30 in her own words:

i now have more energy, strength, focus and flexibility, and feel overall healthier and younger than i ever did in my 20s. my skin is clearer, my hair and nails are stronger, my muscle and joint stiffness is gone, no more junky cravings, my tummy is flatter, my clothes fit better and i’m sleeping like a baby. i am SO SO grateful for angela and what she is doing with fitlosophy. she has truly inspired me so much over the years, and this is just one more example.”

we can’t possibly congratulate you enough, cristal! to say we are proud would be the understatement of the century. so we’ll just say this: we love you, and here’s to many (many, many) more years of friend- and fitbooker-ship.
