Aw, thanks Daryl…we got that covered. The VFG have a monthly “guests” day…so, yes, you’re more than welcome to come along…we’ll keep you posted.
Thank u for the love….xo
Oh by the way, Mad props & kudos to Cecily for setting our site up….now, we’ll learn from her & start helping her out!!
Stay tuned….
Bernie, I’m so proud of the site and how professional you’ve made it. All the women are gorgeous and goal oriented and this will become bigger than you ever imagined. If you need any legal advice, I’ll see what I can do. You need to have a fan appreciation day where certain fans (hint hint) get to jog with you guys. But have a body guard near by ! haaaaa Tell Cecily not to jog that butt off !!! LOL
LUV D
Nice! Me likey! Keep up the good work! Y’all have inspired me to add an extra day to my workout week. Be well
This is so what I’m “TALKING ABOUT”…you go girls, exercise is my favorite…you guys are so cute!! I’m looking forward to guest day.
Thanks
Keep on exercising.

I sure wish we had a support system out here in Atlanta. I remember when claudia us to get everyone together for bowling now you guys are working out…Love it!!! Maybe we can get some girls together out here and get some competitions going. LOL
I think you all should choose different areas of Southern California to walk in and send out media releases. I live in Orange county and I know there are a lot of trails here too. Each episode of your show could be a different trail and invite sign ups a week before the hike or filming. Limit your participants to people who have a medical clearance. Sale t-shirts after each hike to keep getting the name out there. I’m currently working out with Curtis of bootcampfx.com and he would be glad to be guest on your show. He has a cool boot camp here in Fullerton. That could be an episode for your Youtube uploads. I’m so excited!! Valleywood Fit Girls Club will definitely be an excellent tv show. (Facebook Comment)
Can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see sisters working out and taking care of themself.
Okay…i’m going to get serious about my workout with my girls again…i’m so jealous!?!
Keep up the good work! I’m really proud of you & miss you. Not only that you’re taking care of yourself, you’re also having a good time with your friends doing it. I’ll pray that everything will workout with U. Much sucess in your future endeavor. Love Bro.
is this an actual fitness group u can join, or is this just to post vfg love
We’re a group of friends that consistently get together to workout and socialize, but we do have special “guest hikes” where we invite some of our friends and fans out. We’ll definitely keep everyone posted on the next guest hike date!!
I am sooo jealous of you guys. Well, I mean of your group and how well you guys seem to gel and, most of all, have fun working out. Here is Memphis, mention the word gym and everyone starts with the “Gym? Why would you go to the gym” or “Girl, the only thing I’m about to lift is this 40oz. Big Gulp.” Gee whiz. It must be nice to be around a group of like-minded individuals who are about diet, fitness and keeping in shape. I wish there could be such a group like this in Memphis. Then again, if anyone knows of such a group like this in Memphis, tell me! Keep up the good work.
IT’S OBVIOUS ALL OF YOUR HARD IS PAYING OFF. DON’T STOP DOING WHAT YOU’RE DOING. I’M PROUD OF OF EACH OF YOU ESPECIALLY BERNADETTE AND CLAUDIA. I LOVE SEEING PEOPLE WORKING THEIR PASSION AND MAKING IT A BUSINESS.
TO BECOME WEALTHY YOU MUST HAVE OWNERSHIP! YOU HAVE TO MAKE OTHERS RICH IN ORDER FOR YOU TO BECOME WEALTHY. SHARE YOUR GIFTS.
Wow ladies! What an inspiration you all are! It is such a beautiful thing that you are sharing your positivity, passion, knowledge, and personal experiences to inspire, motivate, educate, and support others in their journey towards a healthier life. This website is awesome, and it’s such an effective way to communicate with everyone who is a part of or is interested in being a part of this movement. Yes, I said movement because it is definitely a movement to help get people moving, active, strong, healthy, and ultimately happier and more confident. You are a group of beautiful, strong, positive women who are doing a beautiful thing to help and impact the lives of others. Keep up the incredible work ladies! And I love the friendship, laughter, and genuine good times you all share together. I can’t wait come work out with you guys one day soon. You all are fabulous and beautiful inside and out.
xoxo, Jasmine

Hey Bernie, just stopping by to thank you for the support and inspiration for us here in the UK, London Fit Girls are taking off and beginning to create a buzz. We hope to come over next summer and hike with you all VFG. Take care and keep inspiring! C x
You Fine Individuals are influencing The Fellas too.
Along with everything else, have rekindled my smokin’-ass love affair with the RoseBowl Aquatic Center.
LOVE being in the water. And I stopped swimming for what reason?
Does this mean that I’m channelling my inner VFG here? Getting in touch with my feminine side?
Nah…thinking that it really means that I’m once again feeling…”TOO VAIN…TO LET IT REMAIN.”
Thanks, Ladies!

You ladies are beautiful. Along with beauty though, comes “no good men.” Allow me to come and speak regarding “How To Know When Your Man Is Up To No Good.” I guarantee it to be entertaining and beneficial. There is so much more to communicate here, but I don’t have the time. Let me know if you’d like to hear more.

We would like to know if you will come out to our celebrity golf tournament July 15th and 16th/ Industry Hills
I was a trainer in LA from ’91-’06, I now manufacture core/speed training equipment. This equipment could also function in a bootcamp capacity. Phenominal results for youths. I am also including an article that was recently published by local press “www.santamariasun.com/sports-lead/4123/training-day/”. Please give me your thoughts after your review.
looking very nice ladies…..
Come work out with us AMERICA! We are the fattest nation in the world-with the most resources… No excuse.

Hey VFG’s!
Firstly, let me say that I just learned of your website and the fantastic things you do as a team….Love, Love, Love it!! I think you girls are nothing short of a Powerhouse, one NOT to be reckoned with!
Secondly, I want you to know that I am VERY inspired to put down all the nasty little habits I have (smoking, not eating as healthy, etc.), and start adopting a more healthy lifestyle. I do workout everyday (jogging/powerwalking & strength training (every other day!)), however, there is always room for improvement! And, I am very inspired about your efforts to take control of your health……That’s What’s Up!!!
Continued success to each one of you and I wish you all God’s blessings! Hopefully, our paths will cross in the near future….you never know!
Keep up the fantastic and inspiring work!
Much love,
Pamela Steve
