I just finished my 6 week trial course, and I feel better than I have in several years. The program is great, I love the meal plan and the ladies all are so positive and help you push you to your goals!

I completed the 6 week challenge and I highly recommend it to any ladies interested in beginning or continuing a healthy life journey. The meal prep was time-consuming (especially in the beginning), but most of the food was good. The workouts were intense but gratifying. I could see my progress in the amount of weights or reps I completed. The environment was very welcoming and familial. Nevie even noticed when I changed my hair styles. If you are looking to make a change in your life, contact FLMD.

As many may be able to relate, the Covid pandemic really left me in a funk. For years, I was keeping active whether it be on my own or in group workout sessions, but I came to a point where I really lost motivation and was not eating mindfully. I came across an IG post from FLMD Fitness and was intrigued….BUT, I didn’t take the plunge right away to join. Fast forward 1-2 years and all I can think back and say is “WHAT WAS I WAITING FOR?!?”. It’s almost like I woke up one morning and decided I needed a change in lifestyle when it came to my health and fitness - no more excuses. I contacted FLMD and was immediately greeted by Mama Gray and she got me on the schedule to come in and discuss my goals with Coach Nevie – best choice I’ve taken in many years!I started with their 6-Week Challenge and loved the results. I developed a consistent workout routine and followed their meal plan to the “T” which has me making better decisions with regards to eating. The way the program is laid out makes it very easy to develop better eating habits. You are provided with recipes, weekly meal plans and grocery lists to help guide you and I have to say everything on those meal plans is actually DELICIOUS! In addition to the mean plan, they share of wealth of information such as a “Getting Started Checklist” which includes tips on eating clean when dining out (we all know eating out can easily sidetrack us so these tips were great) as well as a “Success Manual” which is overflowing with a lot of important information outlining the guidelines for the challenge. It has sections regarding proteins, healthy fats, sugars, water intake, how you can tweak the program to serve your needs and so much more. I actually keep the manual handy as it definitely is a good resource to refer back to even beyond the 6 week challenge. More so then the inches and pounds I’ve lost with the challenge, I’m more happy about the better mental state that I find myself in. I feel great!The challenge was an awesome way to bring me out of that funk that was weighing me down. I am now a proud member of the FLMD tribe and am motivated every single time I step foot in the studio because there really is a sense of community and supporting one another. So what are you waiting for!? INVEST IN YOURSELF! Come see what all the hype is about and you’ll be happy you did!

6 weeks ago i started the diet and exercise challenge and ended up learning things about myself and testing my abilities and inner strength i did not know that i had. I have more energy and a slightly better inner calm. Every session was filled with encouragement from the trainer and from the ladies around you. Overall i lost weight and gained confidence while transitioning into someone who will continue to put my health first. This jump start has reset my body and mind. If you need a jump start and want a safe space to get healthy flmd fitness brings it. Thank you!

For years I had always been into the fitness journey, doing challenges here and there (weight up/weight down) but I realized I missed something - a push or boost. When I first visited the FLMD Fitness Studio and met Coach Nevie and her front team I felt so inspired and enthused all over again, I knew and instantly felt that missing part about my journey in finding a fitness home. That feeling of being included with others like you who are on a mission with welcoming open arms for a journey you felt lost about once again. It was a great feeling! Accountability and pushing through with other women on the same journey to fitness and a greater lifestyle. FLMD Fitness is a place for not just a physical transformation but also mental, physical and emotional altogether! I felt it in my spirit that this would be a great decision for a challenge.I started this journey with the 6 week challenge and was able to lose a few inches and drop some pounds (although I didn't hit my target goal, it didn't stop me!). I don't believe any challenge is meant to break you but rather build you up and be hungry for more. I can honestly say that all of the trainers from visiting sessions at various times are great and most importantly encoursge you with help keeping your form on point, which is important and key!Out of just 6 weeks I've changed the way I think about my day, how and what I eat and even cleared out the entire refrigerator for a new beginning. Some laugh at me now that I carry a lunch bag or mini cooler in my truck and bag of apples with me just about anywhere I go now. The water bottle is a must! Its that serious and that much more of a reward to my body adjusting to a healthier me. I've faced those moments of temptation and believe me I know how hard it is when your favorite chocolate is passed around and all the desserts are out at a family gathering, the cringe but feeling of success when you don't give in to the ego.I've been finding out alot about myself, my body (feels so much better and my energy level more natural) and ways to eat cleaner with all of the delicious recipes I've had access to when I started (so thankful for this part) as it definitely helps with the discipline and accountability of eating healthier and cleaner with times of day, etc.. I can honestly say that I love working out early mornings at 5am after all those seesions. You can be yourself freely while finding more about and building a greater YOU surrounded by amazing women is what it's all about. Testing our abilities and beyond. I definitely found a place where I know that if I fall and trip up no matter how many times I start over, the FLMD tribe is there to push me to be greater! I am thankful for this journey, and to Coach Nevie for encouraging me to become the best version of ME!If you need a fitness home plus much more check out my new home at FLMD Fitness!PS. Never miss a Monday! ;-)

FLMD Fitness is where you need to be!!!!! I was working out on my own and had reached a plateau where my body stopped responding to my workouts and eating regimen. I saw their 6-week challenge advertised on IG and decided to check them out. I called and scheduled a consultation immediately. On the day of my consultation, I received a warm greeting from Ms. Carmelia; and a wealth of fitness knowledge from Nevie (owner/trainer) - I signed up the same day. LOL This challenge is more than scheduled classes. You receive daily affirmations from Nevie, weekly meal plans, scheduled weigh-ins, and a tribe of women who look like you and are also very helpful and encouraging. Fast forward to today - I completed my 6-week challenge losing inches and gaining muscle. I liked the transformation during the 6-week time frame and decided to stay on as part of the fitness tribe. It has been 12 weeks since I started and I love my gains and the energy that comes with putting in the work. If you are looking for a gym and a great trainer who is dedicated to helping you reach your goals; don't think about it too long - COME GET YOU SOME - FLMD will get you right!!!!!

This place is amazing! I have been active my whole life. I am an avid runner, have taken dance classes, taught aerobics, done weight lifting, yoga, and Pilates. I have had trainers, teachers and joined many gyms but have never been a part of a fitness center like FLMD! Nevie has created a space for women that feeds your mental, physical and emotional health!I started with the 6-week challenge. I had allowed life to get in the way, had stopped working out, could not fit any of my clothes and had very little energy. After joining for just one week, using both the workouts and following the eating plan, I was super sore ( thanks Nevie! Lol) but had more physical and mental energy. In addition the menopause symptoms I had been experiencing dissipated. I stayed the course throughout the six weeks and it was transformational for me. The pain subsided, my personal summers disappeared, and my energy level continued to increase. I am also back into clothes I have not been able to fit into in years! My kids thought they were in an alternate universe. By the time they woke up in the morning, t had made breakfast, cleaned the kitchen and started my work day. They were like, “Whatever you are doing mom, please keep doing it!”Overall, I find FLMD to be a full service establishment that addresses mental, physical and emotional health and highly recommend this option for anyone looking for a sustainable workout and wellness experience. Thank you Nevie and my FLMD family! Love you guys!

Started in Sept and joining was and is a great decision. My body has really changed and I have lost weight. Nevie I must say is amazing. It is one thing to know your job which she does but what makes her stand out is that she truly cares and meets u where you are. She is so respectful. So to me this goes beyond a job for her. I truly truly recommend this fitness center to her. Also she has built a great support system with amazing staff.this is money well spent.

If I can give 0 stars I would. The owner was very nice and sweet the first meeting we talked about my goal and days I can come in etc etc. Then pricing came, she told me a price $200 more than what the regular clients was paying (I know because I have a friend who goes to her and she pays way less, and told me others pay way less as well) . The price was around 699 for just a month and 2 weeks, it was just to much for me when I know I could get cheaper, I turned the offer down AND IMMEDIATELY HER ATTITUDE CHANGED TO BEING RUDE AND SOUR. She was very forceful and money hungry and forced me to paying atleast for a drop in class which was $35, I told my friend this and she said drop ins are $15 (her friend did a drop in once before). I can go on and on about my horrible experience but I will say the drop in class was definitely a great work out. But I will not be supporting a money hungry business like this ever agin. Lastly I told my friend about this she confronted the owner and the owner has been ignoring her ever since! My friend left a detailed voice message saying how she was not right to overcharge me, I later have gotten a text I guess with the “correct” pricing but it’s now too late. I will never support a business like this agin!

Very unprofessional with no respect for other peoples time. I was scheduled by Carmelia for a consultation. When I arrived at the date and time that SHE picked out, no one was available to even open the door for me. Although there was a bright pink Tesla out front, assuming it belonged to the owner, I rang the doorbell and waited for minutes with no answer. I even sent Carmelia a warm text message only to get an unprofessional response 4 hours later with "instructions" that clearly were not given before hand. I'll be taking my business to another black owned gym. Save your time and invest elsewhere.

FLMD Fitness is legit the BEST experience that has happened for me!! I did the 6-week challenge and will keep going. The fitness routines are never the same week to week and I love that. I have lost 10 lbs, inches upon inches, and let's not forget about that good ole' fat loss! I am fitting into clothes that were pushed into the back of the closet, my energy level is up, and I have gained a true sense of accountability on myself! I don't look for someone else to hold me accountable I am doing that on my own now. Every single day of the challenge, our awesome instructor Nevie sends you daily affirmations filled with tips that will help you to keep pushing. We also receive a weekly meal plan and recipe guide that has been instrumental in helping me stay on track. I have found my "hobby" and the journey is just getting started lol... if you are looking for a workout that challenges you; a tribe of women that encourage and support you; and a morning or evening of just fun and laughs while working out... then you need to run and sign up with Fit Like Me Divas in Crofton, MD. You will NOT be disappointed!! - Holly P

Community: 5Instructors: 5Workouts: 5Communication: 4.5My 6 week challenge ended this week and overall I really enjoyed the experience. FLMD popped up on my Instagram timeline as a free 6 week challenge - so bet I was there. There is a consultation, weigh in, and tour. I met with Nevie the gym owner who explained that the challenge is free after you invest in yourself for an undisclosed about. You meet the challenge and you get your money back. I didn't have anything to lose so I joined. I must admit that Nevie worked to figure out why I was not getting the weekly emails and meal plans. So if joined through any META platform (Instagram/Facebook) the emails will be sent to that registered email address. Things that were not transparent to me were: the class schedule not being readily available, the link to view the workouts online so I could join from home, who I should report my weekly weight. KEY TAKE AWAYS:I lost 7lbs my first week!! Drop in classes are $30

I joined FLMD in October, 2021 after seeing an Instagram post and soon realized that this was not an ordinary workout class. The initial 6 week challenge were filled with new and unfamiliar food that I soon began to love. Making the change gradually from unhealthy to healthy eating was a transition that I was ready to make. I even made the dishes for my family and they began to enjoy eating them. Go figure.Although I was working out elsewhere, I wasn't making any lifestyle changes and continued to receive the same results. None. Nevie gave me the boost I needed to restart my journey.After the 6 weeks, I became a member. I knew early on that this was a benefit to my health and no matter what it took, I was going to stick with it. I love the early morning classes. Do I have to drag myself out of bed - YES. But once I'm there, I'm happy that I did. The workouts make me feel like I have accomplished something for the day and I can start it and not wonder if I am going to have time at the end of the workday for a workout.If you need a boost to your workout, this is the place to start. Not only will you change your workout routine, you will also change the way you look at food. Which, for me, is the most important part of this journey. Teresa

I feel confident and comfortable in such a peaceful affordable place where i can feel like myself without getting judged or criticized. Everyone be minding their business so there's really no need to feel shy.
