Real women.  Real results.

I've had the honour of working with some amazing and determined go-getters!  Women who juggle multiple priorities, yet still find the time and motivation to take care of their bodies.  

These are real women, getting real results.  They're not out to become the next fitness star or athlete (unless they want to of course).  They simply want to become a better version of themselves.  

Here are a few examples of some of these beautiful women and what they had to say...

Jannet Hudson, Emergency Nurse, Toronto, Canada - age 61

Lost 5 pounds and 11.3 inches in 3 months!

Lost 5 pounds and a total of 11.3 inches in 3 months!

As a full-time ER Nurse, Jannet holds a stressful job with long shifts. Even as a busy nurse, Jannet likes to stay active. When the pandemic hit and the gyms closed, Jannet decided to try personal training (outdoors). To her delight, she lost 5lbs and over 11 inches in just 3 months! Most of the inches were lost around her belly and hips.

In Jannet’s words:

“Hello Mimie, my clothes don't fit. ie the waist in my shorts and pants are loose and I have to keep pulling them up or use a belt of some sort. This is concrete evidence that personal training is working!”

 

Karen W., CFO, Toronto, Canada - age 59

Lost 25 pounds and a total of 30 inches!

Over the last 30 years, Karen has tried every weight loss program out there…and nothing has worked for her. She has finally found a program and the accountability that has helped her safely and sustainably lose 25 pounds and over 30 inches so far!

Karen is an inspiration. I’ve been working with Karen for almost 9 months now, and from day 1, she has been totally committed to transforming her eating habits and fitness. Karen shows up 3x/week for online personal training and 1-2x/week for our coaching calls. She never misses. Her commitment to her health and wellness has rewarded her with her steady and sustainable weight loss. Way to go Karen!!!

In Karen’s words:

After suffering multiple personal losses, the struggle with my weight has lasted almost 30 years. I tried any and all weight loss programmes from Weight Watchers (multiple times) to Jenny Craig to hypnosis and eventually had surgery to insert a lap band.

When I decided to remove the lap band in late 2019, my doctor suggested I try a medically supervised diet. I didn’t want to become another “number” so I embarked on a search for a more personalized alternative that would combine both nutrition and fitness.

I knew I needed accountability and I needed to work one on one. I needed a coach and a cheerleader. When I found Mimie I got all this and a whole lot more. Mimie is a caring, knowledgeable professional. She is invested in working as a team to help me achieve my goals.

Since starting this journey in February 2020, I’ve lost 25 pounds and almost 30 inches and I can’t be happier. I’m so encouraged that I’ve committed to working with Mimie into next year!

It’s been slow and steady but definitely accelerated when I started personal training sessions with Mimie. I thought I was fairly fit doing spin classes and pilates each week. I was wrong. In each and every workout, I find I’m setting new goals to get stronger and be able to nail those moves!

If you can relate to all or part of my story I urge you to contact Mimie. She will help you to change your life.

Therese, Teacher, Sacramento, California - age 47

Lost 9 inches in less than 3 months!

Therese came to me looking for help to lose weight, learn what to eat, learn how to cook, and for personal training. She also needed accountability. Since working closely with Therese, in just under 3 months, she has lost a total of 9 inches and feels more comfortable in her skirts (this was one of her goals)! Training has helped Therese get so much stronger, even with limited equipment and training in her living room! More importantly, in this short amount of time, Therese has gained more confidence in both body and mind.

In Therese’s words:

I have been struggling to lose weight for a few years. I
even worked with two different local trainers who really only cared about making money. So, I stopped and kept doing different things until I came across a radio program where Mimie Louie was the featured speaker. I immediately Googled her and without hesitation emailed her. What triggered me to decide so quickly on her was her genuine and sincere demeanor. After having worked with people who were just in the health and fitness industry for the money, I recognized that Mimie was different. Our phone conversation went so well because she listened, REALLY listened. I love her fitness program as much as her coaching calls. The workout is challenging but doable. She never rushes me and always tries to understand the bottom line of my repeated failures.

As a teacher, I recognize that Mimie has great instructional strategies which is a great skill to have because she recognizes that each client needs to be approached differently. Mimie is more than a health and fitness coach. She is a life coach who is kind, smart, and extremely knowledgeable in her field. I’m NEVER going back to life without Mimie! Therese
 

Bella Sun, Audit Manager, Toronto, Canada - age 27

Lost 5 pounds of body fat in 2.5 months!

Bella wanted to lose body fat. She attended various fitness classes, but wasn’t getting the “lean muscular” look she desired. After training for only 2.5 months, and paying more attention to her nutrition, Bella lost almost 4% body fat!

In Bella’s words:

I had been going to fitness classes for a year before training with Mimie, and saw no results. Mimie is extremely organized and systematic in helping me reach my goals of losing body fat as well as getting lean. She is attentive and looked into my lifestyle and eating habits outside of the training sessions. I always looked forward to training with her. The sessions were tough, but she made it fun and encouraging. I was able to lose 5 lbs of body fat in the short 2.5 months I trained with her. I felt a lot stronger, and was able to achieve workouts I definitely could not have done before. Even after I stopped training with her, the workout and eating habits stayed with me. I feel more confident, stronger, and happier. I would definitely recommend Mimie as a trainer to anyone. Bella Sun

Emilie Zuzlewski, College student, Merced, California - age 19

Emilie is not always “SO hungry” anymore!

In a few short months, Emilie learned that diets and food restrictions do not work in the long-run. She learned that she can enjoy what she likes to eat AND lose weight! Emilie went from someone who regularly ate less nutritious foods (and was always SO hungry), to someone who eats balanced meals and snacks without feeling the hunger pangs all the time. To Emilie’s delight, her weight has steadily dropped over the weeks and months without feeling deprivation.

In Emilie’s words:

My health has been something that I have struggled with for my entire life. I had tried working out at the gym, classes in the studio, running and lots more in order to add some more exercise into my life. I did not understand the relationship between what I ate and the exercise that I did every day. Once I started with Mimie, I began to become more aware of the food that I was putting into my body. I was so used to being restricted when it came to the food that I was eating. When Mimie started to focus more on food with me she never told me what I could not eat. If I wanted it, I could have it. 

I would say that this is what makes Mimie so different from everything else that I have tried. Mimie understands that life happens and she incorporates that into her training which prepares you for the real world. If you have to have junk food for a meal, eat it! Enjoy it if you want, and “simply resume.” I am a college student and have seen how unhealthy habits can affect the mental and physical health of students. I am so grateful that I started with Mimie. She has prepared me for my future in ways that I could have never imagined. 

Before I started with Mimie, I was the one in my family known for “not knowing how to cook.” Today, I meal prep when I can and am constantly trying new healthy recipes! Who would’ve thought that I would ever ask for a blender or a set of pots for Christmas instead of a new phone or clothes? 

I could go on but that would probably take up this whole page. The best quality Mimie has is her passion for what she does and how much she cares for her clients. I know that Mimie is always giving at LEAST 110% with me and I could not ask for a better personal trainer. She has helped me make so many changes within these past few months that I could never do on my own for years! I implore you all to contact Mimie and give the three months everything you’ve got! Once you start with Mimie you will never want to be without her!
 

Jodie Rogers, Marketing Professional, Toronto, Canada - age 44

Visible results within the first 4 weeks!

Jodie is a busy Marketing professional with a husband and 3 young kids.  Her goals were to lose weight/fat, add muscle and look better.  Jodie was determined to achieve all her goals - and she did in 10 weeks!  She lost body fat, added lean muscle and fit better in her clothes.  

In Jodie’s words:

Working with Mimie was a great decision! I had been meaning to get “back on track” with my health and fitness goals after recovering from a broken arm.
Mimie took the time to create a program that was specific to my needs. She has an approach that combines a personalized fitness plan with a meal guide to help maximize your results. Having Mimie as an accountability partner, with weekly check-ins was an effective way to get me focused. I saw visible results within the first 4 weeks, something evident with the photos Mimie requires at the start of the program, and through regular intervals. It was great to see the physical changes - that really helped me stay the course.

Mimie has a very natural approach to coaching. She is personable and warm, friendly and understanding. She provides knowledgeable direction based on experience and expertise. Working with Mimie was a pleasure. She’s the kind of coach that you look forward to engaging with and keeps you motivated! She is an encouraging partner who wants to see you succeed! I would recommend Mimie to anyone looking to “get off the couch” and start a healthy lifestyle, no matter your current physical activity level or goal. Jodie Rogers

Heidi, Corporate Professional, Toronto, Canada - age 53

Kicked the dark chocolate craving!


Heidi wanted to lose body fat, get stronger and get a handle on her eating habits. She wanted to stop eating dark chocolate every night after dinner.  She was also looking for a program that was tailored for her fitness level and included what she enjoys doing (being active outdoors). She also had an injured shoulder to take into account.  In 10 weeks, Heidi achieved all her fitness goals, her shoulder got a lot better and she curbed her cravings!  

In Heidi’s words:

This was a lot of fun and an eye opener as to what it takes to make a real difference in my lifestyle and health. So grateful for how much the program helped me to get my shoulder much better and much faster than I thought! It is nice to see that it seems seamless to keep the pace going in a new lifestyle. Heidi

Anita Schmitt, Entrepreneur, Toronto, Canada - age 51

Anita needed a fun and inspiring program that didn’t take up too much time!

Anita is a busy entrepreneur who travels frequently.  She needed a program that would work with her schedule and not take up too much time.  Anita was able to take her program with her wherever she was in the world and keep up with her fitness routine.  

In Anita’s words:

This is a one-stop shop for your fitness goals. The program is personal and you work on it together. Mimie listens to your needs without judgment, lots of encouragement and one on one attention. It’s amazing!!!!

Andrea Perricone, Chiropractor, Toronto, Canada - age 33

Motivation and guidance was key for Andrea!

Andrea was a “newbie” to exercising.  She was overwhelmed with all the fitness information out there and “didn’t know where/how to start, which exercises to do.”  Her biggest barrier to living a healthier lifestyle was “motivation.”  Her #1 goal was to get stronger.  Within a few short weeks, Andrea quickly built up her confidence and learned how to exercise properly and got her body a lot stronger in the process!   

In Andrea’s words:

I would describe Mimie’s coaching style as working with a good girlfriend! Someone who is always so positive and caring. Andrea Perricone
