The Camp Transformation requires a few things when you sign the contract for the 6 Week 20lbs Challenge, such as: the upfront cost, commitment, nutrition plan, check-ins, changing your FB picture to the challenge and post a review. While it may seem a lot, but if you are determined, as I was and still am. The trainers and staff truly care about all challengers and members. They push you to the limits. I lost 7.1 the first week with healthy eating and intensive circuit exercising, by the 3rd week, I was in a lull. I continued to eat on the plan, exercise and do my own extra cardio. By the 5th week I was concerned U wouldn’t lose the 7 pounds to hit the goal. Helen, a staff member, put me on a strict nutrition eating plan to make it…..by Saturday, I weighed in and lost 20.2 pounds!!
The Camp was exactly what I needed to gear me into a healthier lifestyle. I have signed up for my first Spartan Race in December and will conquer that too! I’m incredibly thankful to The Camp and all staff, including members and challengers are a family. If you’re thinking it’s a scam, you’re dead wrong. They don’t advertise, we, the members and challengers are the advertisement!
I am often asked, “What made you start a Meal Prep Company??” With New Years Resolutions around the corner….I thought it’s time to share my story….cuz you too can change your tomorrow.
Sooo I was looking through pics from the past 10 years, and was debating on which ones to choose. 10 years ago VS now? Hmmmm…. I was going to go with all the cute “cookie cutter” ones of me smiling…but started to see a pattern in all of those as the years went on, and felt compelled to keep it very real and be very vulnerable with all of you in hopes I can touch just ONE person that is struggling, and let them know there is hope.
10 years ago I was freshly divorced after spending over a decade with someone. I was ready to bolt to a new chapter…a new life…so away I went! I packed my U-Haul and traveled around the world like a gypsy with absolutely zero care given. The character I built while I was a rebel without a cause is priceless….I would never change that, but the common denominator was my addictive personality. It didn’t matter what it was…uppers, downers, alcohol, Bulimia, NyQuil (yes-NyQuil) I mean, you name it, I abused it. I was out of touch with my emotions and addicted to anything that would cover up the pain that I kept hidden for so long. I lived that way for a very long time. My black outs were getting worse. My sister would have to video tape me while we were out cuz I couldn’t remember shit the next day. The stories get much worse as my compulsive/destructive behavior was at its peak. Anyways…my 20’s flew by living that hard life…and that bar life took over my soul.
It was my 30th…and I was TIRED of being sick and tired. I was ready to face the underlying issues that I tried so desperately to cover up. I was Ready to change. So away I went! I entered myself into detox then to a treatment center for 42 days. There I learned one thing…I was NOT alone. I was surrounded by all walks of life struggling with addiction. Doctors, nurses, lawyers, bartenders, or people that were just court ordered. Some wanting the change, others being forced. But me? I wanted the change. I was in it to win it. 42 days later…I was ready to live a life without goggles for the first time since the age of 12.
Shortly after, I signed up for my first weight loss challenge with The Camp Transformation Center and my world was forever changed. I realized I could over come ANY obstacle. At that point I accepted the lord back into my life and dove head first into making myself a better person. Before I always told myself …”you’ll never make it” “you don’t know shit about business” “you’re too old now to pursue your passions” all those thoughts we tell ourselves because we are too scared to get out of our comfort zone…we are scared of failure. All those thoughts are bullshit. Self sabotage at its finest. I lived that way for a very long time and I refused to be my worst enemy any longer. After successfully completing my first challenge, I found my strength/focus, and at that time, “Meal Prep By LJ” was born. I was ready to put all that creativity and positive energy towards something that could not only improve my life, but help others along the way.
Am I “cured” u ask? Hell no…I will forever be on the road of recovery because addiction is an illness, but I have learned all the coping skills I need to tackle each and every day with a positive outlook, and take one day at a time.
It’s never too late to change. You too CAN change your tomorrow. So 10 years ago VS Now? ya…I’d say I’m winning!

just completed my 1st challenge and lost a whopping 24 pounds in 6 weeks! This is the same 24 pounds I have been trying to lose for 10 years with diet pills, starvation diets and every crazy tactic out there. But losing the weight simply came down to clean eating and exercising. I am not only thinner, but I am stronger. My body is toned and I no longer have excruciating back pain so I can skip having that disc replacement surgery!
The gym attracts a great group of people who all are there for the same purpose. Everyone encourages each other to stay positive on their weight loss journey. What’s I really like is how the trainers do all the thinking for you. You don’t have to figure out what exercises your going to do and it’s never redundant. All you need to do is get your self to the gym 5 times a week and push yourself for 50 minutes to get a great work out in. The workouts are exhausting and the food is not exciting but it’s the best food for our bodies put on this earth. I feel great with more energy and ironically sleep better than ever.
Best of all, I like what I see in the mirror. I want to see how else my body can transform in such a short amount of time, so I have signed up t do another challenge in January!!
The Camp Transformation Center is the place to be if you really want a serious change in life and health for better. This is an amazing place to get real results, melt your lbs down, change your life for good, kill bad habits, build strength and find true people with the same objective as you and also make friends why not.
The staff and trainers are awesome and their one and main objective is to gelp you reach your goal. You can always reach out to them for any questions you may have as well as everyone involved. If you really want a change in your life this is the place all you got to do is take the 1st step into changing your life, listen to what they tell you, work your buns off and hard everything they say it’s gonna happen will happen because they truly care for you and are committed to help you at all times.
I just finished my 1st challenge lost a bunch of inches and melted 26.7 lbs in 6 weeks and I feel so happy because all the hard work really paid off now I’m ready for my 2nd challenge and ready to loose more lbs and inches and gain more health & strength beleive me this really works and in a very magical way so if your interested open your eyes, ears and heart and start your transformation now I’m ready to see where my 2nd journey takes me I’m loving it!!!

Coach drell was great and very helpful.

I have had Samuel Cobb as a trainer a few times and he always makes you work! I always feel good leaving even though it feels like you’re dying during the work out. If you’re like me and struggle to find motivation to just lift weights and do cardio on your own this is for you! I would definitely check out The camp in Oceanside!
Justin Smith Jan 1, 2025
The Camp in Oceanside isn’t just a gym—it’s a game-changer! What makes this place truly special? The people. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the infectious positivity of Director Emma (and it's genuine), to the trainers Drell and Sam who keep the workouts creative and challenging, and a community of members who actually cheer you on throughout the workout. Whether you're a fitness newbie or a seasoned pro, this place makes you feel right at home. Give it 21 days—I did, and now I’m hooked. You just might be too!

I’ve been a member of the Camp Transformation Center for five years, and it’s been an incredible experience! The trainers are fantastic—they’re knowledgeable, supportive, and always go the extra mile to help you succeed. What really sets this gym apart is how much they genuinely care about each member. The positive energy and sense of community make it easy to stay motivated and consistent. If you’re looking for a gym that will challenge you, inspire you, the Camp is the place to be. I can’t recommend it enough!

It’s more than just a gym it’s a community. I’ve been coming to the camp for a little over 4 years now and it’s been such a life changer. The staff is so friendly, the gym is so clean, and they actually care about your progress. They have helped me lose over 130 pounds and continue my health journey.

I was a member a couple years back and had to leave due to personal reasons. I’m happy to say I’m back, with my husband joining me for a 6 week challenge! Today was our first class together and our first experience in the new and improved Camp Transformation Center in Oside. It is beautifully remodeled inside and I really enjoyed the class taught by Sam. He was so organized and I felt that I understood each station. He definitely kept my energy up and motivation high! I’m excited to be back!

Josefina Lopez Nov 11, 2024
From the very first day I walked through the doors, and all through every one of my workouts since, there has been nothing but support, positivity, and encouragement from all of the trainers and staff at The Camp. The workouts Coach Drell puts us thru match some of the hardest training sessions I’ve done throughout my 30 fitness journey. I love that there is plenty of latitude to dial it up or down based on my personal level each session. So glad I found The Camp!! Thank you Drell, Emma, Samuel, and Miguel 👏🙏👊💪

Found my way back to The Camp and am so happy to be back! The workouts are intense and the members are supportive. The environment is welcoming and even had a member walk up, introduce themselves, ask if I had any questions and then worked out with me. Leave your ego at the door and join the class, you won’t regret it.
