Hi, My name is Mellisa. I am glad you stopped by. I am a work from home mom of two huge blessings (my children, 11 and 3). My biggest passions in life are my faith, my family, and my friends. But I also have a great passion for health and wellness for the body, mind and spirit.

My weight issues first started after I was in a car accident when I was a teenager. I had to give up a lot of activities and as a result I gained 30-40 pounds. By the time I graduated from high school I had lost it all and then some, but unfortunately, like many other teenage girls I did it in a very unhealthy way.

From then on my weight would fluctuate 10-20 lbs quite frequently. But it wasn't until I had my first child 10 years ago that I really became what you would call "overweight". Due to complications during and after my pregnancy, I gained 75 pounds and up until now had not been able to lose it.

On top of that I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue syndrome which makes it even more of a challenge to lose the weight.

But I am committed and determined in getting myself back in shape and to help as many others along the way. I know I will be able to accomplish my goals with ALL of the tools here at Beachbody.com.

My daughter convinced me to try the Turbo Jam workouts after we watched an infomercial for them. I have been doing Turbo Jam for the past year and I can say I definitely feel better after a great workout.

Whether you like to work out or not, the great thing is there is something here for everyone. I like the Turbo Jam workouts because they are fun and it doesn't even seem like you're working out. And yet I can always "feel" the effects of the workout.

If you're like me, you may need all the help (support, encouragement, instruction and inspiration) you can get.
Believe me, you will not find a better place to call home for ALL of those things, than Team Beachbody

Are you ready? Great! Than join me at the WOWY supergym and let's get this party started!

Your friend through it all,
Mellisa
