Team Beachbody Guest

I was always active growing up and played sports throughout my school years. I joined the Marine Corps right out of high school which took my fitness level higher than it had ever been before. Though I never exercised regularly, I always kept active enough where my weight was never an issue. I was involved in stock car racing for many years right through my mid-thirties which kept me in "decent" shape for the most part. After the divorce, I had to adjust to being single again. I found myself making poor food choices and getting very little exercise. I knew that I had to make a change. I didn't feel well, was constantly getting sick, and just plain didn't feel very good about myself. I had seen the infomercial for P90X and wasn't quite sure I was ready for it. I was on the fence for a few months until one day while at work, I stepped onto the freight scale and was shocked to see that I weighed over 200 lbs. That was my turning point. I was instantly committed to becoming fit so I ordered P90X and changed my life forever.

I was nervous about starting the program. I had never "worked out" a day in my life. What if I couldn't do it? I took Tony's advice and just kept pushing play one day at a time. Before I knew it, I was losing weight, getting stronger, and feeling better than I had in a very long time. I logged on to the Beachbody message boards and was amazed at how helpful and supportive everyone was. Soon I started getting remarks from my co-workers. They knew I had just gone through a divorce and some were concerned that I wasn't eating properly or that something was wrong. I guess they weren't used to seeing someone lose weight so quickly. I assured them that all was well. I just kept telling them "It's P90X!". After my first 90 days I went from 203 lbs down to 165 lbs. My sister, who had always kept herself in good shape, couldn't believe it. She felt that she was getting a little too comfortable with her workout routine and decided to give P90X a try. After the first week she was hooked. Since then, I have convinced fellow co-workers and even their spouses to give P90X a try. Since starting in April of 2007, I have completed several rounds of P90X and P90X+. I currently do a mix of those two programs as well as the One-on-One workouts. I have recently become a Beachbody coach and am thrilled at the opportunity to help others reach their fitness goals. If you are on the fence about taking that next step to start living a healthier lifestyle, don't hesitate to contact me. It's a decision you will never regret.
