August 30, 2009: 6 weeks of Insanity is done!!! I can literally feel my body tightening up, and the things that I thought were so tough 6 weeks ago are quite enjoyable now! I am drenched with sweat after every workout, but the feeling of accomplishment is like none other.

August 14, 2009: I can't believe I survived 4 weeks of Insanity!!! It's been such a rush, and I've been challenged like never before to dig deeper and harder.

Update: I finished my 4th round of P90X and did a round of ChaLEAN Extreme, then developed a health issue that put me in the hospital where I needed to have a blood transfusion. This right before my 50th birthday. I am grateful that I was so healthy prior to my episode, because I have been able to rebound to nearly full strength within a short time. Thank you, Beachbody!

Update: I attended the Tony Horton Fitness Camp in July 2008. What a fabulous experience! I not only met and worked out with Tony himself, but I got to hang out with all my Beachbody buddies. There is nothing like this community!

I grew up in the era where girls were not encouraged nor given the opportunity to participate in sports. I have three brothers, and they were active in martial arts, but I was encouraged to dance hula, sew, and do well in school. I did not have a weight problem until I went to college, then all of a sudden found myself 20 pounds heavier! I was inspired by a friend who lost weight by proper diet and exercise, and lost those 20 pounds before I got married in 1980. I was able to keep my weight down all through my 20's, 30's, and then the 40's came and the pounds started to stick. I am determined to fight aging all the way, so I am very grateful to have found Beachbody and their excellent programs.
