item[1]="<h3><font color='#148aba'>Samantha Peppard</font><br /><i>Teacher, Charlotte, NC</i></h3><p>I am a 34 year old single mother of a very active little boy. I started working out on a regular basis in September of 2007 on my own. I had lost 15 pounds on my own but knew that in order to lose more, and to condition my body in the correct manner, I needed help. I started working with Eminent Fitness in January of 2008, and the difference in my physical appearance, as well as my mental health, became vastly different. I have lost a total of 30 pounds now and my body is in the best shape it has ever been. <br />Eminent Fitness has taught me how to push myself to achieve the correct results for my body. I feel so much better about myself and would not be where I am today without the proper training. I could not have done this on my own and I owe a great deal to Eminent Fitness. <br />I am not one to boast or brag about myself or anyone else, but I will with regards to Eminent Fitness and on my outward appearance. With hard work and the correct mindset, you can change the way the world sees you!</p><br />"
