I've always been kinda heavy, to my liking anyway. When I met my husband in 2000. I was 145 -155 lbs. I was happy with that. Still heavy but I felt that I looked good(enough). Then I quit working manual labor jobs to go to cosmetology school. It was a dream of mine since I was young and I had finally met someone who cared enough about me to let me fullfill my dream. However, I think I immediately started gaining weight. I was in school for 1 year and gained close to 45 - 50 lbs. Then I got pregnant, miscarried and got pregnant again. After the first child I purchased Power 90. I used it religiously for about 6 wks, but I got pregnant again, when my first child was 7 1/2 months. So I stopped working out. After I gave birth to my second child, I would start working out again and then after about a month or so, I'd quit again...you know...I had many different excuses. Don't we all.

Well, I'm back now and with a vengeance. My wonderful husband purchased Turbo Jam for me in early September 2006 and I've been hooked ever since.

I've finally come to the realization that I'm not going to lose this weight and feel better about myself by sitting on the couch with a big bowl of popcorn. I have finally, since becoming a Beachbody member in 2003, taken Beachbody's moto to heart. I have DECIDED to COMMIT and now I will SUCCEED!!

It's been almost 2 years since I started with turbo jam. I have since purchased Hip Hop Abs and Great Body Guaranteed. I truly enjoy all the programs.

I've certainly had my struggles along the way, however, I always come back to the Beachbody community and they help get me out of the slump I'm in.

I'm thankful to the ones whom have been with me since the beginning....P90 newbies april 2005, turbo jam newbies sept 2006....and everyone that checks in on me at my thread, My "turbo" transformation. If it wasn't for everyone, I would have a very hard time keeping with the programs. All I have to say is that, the support of your friends and family is crutial!!!

I hope my story will help others. Beachbody will help you, just let them.

Thanks again Beachbody!!
