I am 28 years old and have had 2 children by cesarean which has caused big problems for me with my outer appearance. I have never had a weight problem in my life until about 8 yrs. ago when my husband and I started getting serious we decided to use the magic birth control pill (which didn't work with our 1st child obviously). My normal weight is about 125-135 lbs. Ever since starting the BC I have I am 28 years old and have had 2 children by cesarean which has caused big problems for me with my outer appearance.

My normal weight is about 125-135 lbs. Ever since starting the BC I have battled with my weight. It didn't seem to matter what I did or ate I could not loose the weight and it became worse after my 1st son which put me in a depression for about 1 1/2 yrs. Then I started a Hip Hop class at a local dance studio and went off of BC and started stripping off the pounds and I started dancing every night at home & about 3 or 4 nights at the studio. I even danced competitively and made it to the dance nationals in Vegas. Then I became pregnant again and that brings us to current date. I had my baby by c-section 1 1/2 years ago. This large person that I am is not me and never will be me. It causes for a lot of turmoil in my personal relationship with my husband because the effects of my self esteem. I have always been an athlete, it didn't matter what the sport was I played it and I want to be that person again and have my husband fall in love with me all over again.

I started as many do, up late one night and watched a BeachBody info commercial a couple of years ago. I had ordered the whole series of Yoga Booty Ballet. I had also ordered another series of workouts from a different company. I didn't do too much with them, I just did not have the motivation. Then some time later I saw Hip Hop Abs. I loved it, especially for being a dancer but then I was pregnant. After 1 1/2 years later I got the Turbo Jam and have stuck through it for the past 3-4 months along with other workouts of my own and have lost 37 lbs. since June 2008. I am currently waiting for my Power 90 and Turbo Jam Elite (should arrive today 10/10/08). I can not wait to start Power 90. I keep watching the P90X commercials and I knew as a beginner I should probably start on a lower rank, so I got on Beachbody.com and saw Power 90 and ordered. After Power 90 I will do Turbo Jam Elite until the next rank of Power 90 or P90X arrives to start. I like the challenges that Tony Horton's series appears to give people and the results from photos are amazing!!! I also LOVE Chalene's Tubo Jams too. I like the dance, martial arts, and music. I can't wait til her Extreme comes available. I am on the BeachBody train as a lifer. Beachbody has completely helped me change my ways of thinking and all the tools are awesome. I had thought I had to spend lots of money for gym memberships and personal trainers (which I can't afford) to get anywhere. I love WOWY because I don't feel alone in my journey. I will keep updated and probably post a new pic. after the first 30 days of Power 90. Like my favorite saying, "GO HARD OR GO HOME"
