Growing up I was never really into fitness. The only sport I did in high school was golf, I did carry my golf bag and walk all the courses I played at. It wasn't until April of 2008, when I became almost obsessed with fitness and getting healthy. I was having back problems which effected my performance at work. I was also called "larger than a house" by my commander which was a kick in the pants. I was hurt but it got me thinking about my health and how fitness not only helps with the physical aspect of life but also mental and spiritual aspects. So I started doing circuits and bought some exercise videos. I started dropping weight immediately. Over the course of the end of spring and into the summer I lost about 30 pounds or so. Then I stopped seeing results. My body had adapted to the program, circuits were the same, videos were the same. So from mid summer until about the middle of September my weight loss was stagnant and I had even fallen off the wagon due to the frustration of not seeing results. Then one day at work one of my coworkers was talking about doing P90X. Now I have seen the infomercials and have always been intrigued about the program but never actually got it. When he was talking about it, I became more interested and started to look into the program and I realized this was what I needed to kick start my results again. I saw the results that people were getting and I thought to myself why not me? Why can't I get those results? I realized at that point that I could get those results and decided to go for it. I chose to make the investment for my health. I started P90X Sep 28, 2008. I have been pushed with P90X like nothing I have ever done before. I still get those days where I wake up and don't feel like working out. Then I just think about my goals and knowing what the program can do. I know that in order to get in the best shape of my life I need to BRING IT and challenge my body like never before. I feel better about myself and my abilities at work. I have more confidence. I am stronger than I have ever been. Granted I still have some weight to lose but my body fat percent is lower than it has been in a long time. It has been a dream of mine to be lean and I am on my way to achieving that dream! I am currently in my 3rd round of P90X, which has gotten me farther than I could ever have imagined! I am excited to see my body transform into my dream body!

I am continuing to learn and grow while I keep pressing play and while I BRING IT everyday!
