Team Beachbody Guest

Where do I start...I've been a beachbody member for 4 years and it has been the most interesting four years of my life. I originally stumbled across beachbody through a power90 infomercial around 1 in the morning. I decided to purchase the product because I was sick of being out of shape and since graduating high school I had done nothing but sit behind a computer screen for my career in IT. As a result I had gained the college poundage :o) and put on some extra computer geek cushion. I was in the worst shape of my life and decided then that I was going to change it! With all the gusto and determination I could muster I set out on my power90 journey 45 days into it I was in a severe car accident which left me seriously impaired, needless to say it kind of interrupted my goals for the 90 day boot camp transformation I was aiming at. Took over a year and half to recover to a functional level where I could begin working out again, but I didn't :o( I instead focused my energy and attention everywhere else but my health and gained more weight getting to 215 before getting sick of the situation and doing something about it. (AGAIN) So I started P90X, not knowing what I was getting myself into I quickly realized this was too much for this dog to bite off. Have to admire the effort. :o) Stepped it down a notch to P90 Master Series and enjoyed that thoroughly but fell out yep 38 days into it I flaked out :o( About 6 months went by and I just flipped a switch in my head that said no more and started P90X (ouch!!!) is all I can say, but I stuck with it no matter how bad it hurt and no matter how much I felt like at any given moment I could drop dead and not have to worry about working out again :o) but luckily I didn't and I'm here made it through 49 days before life happened again... We were on our way to pick up some friends from the airport and were hit by a drunk driver, taken away in the ambulance all I could think about was how upset I was for that Idiot interrupting yet another attempt at 90 days... Was really seeing some awesome results and then BAM!!! back at square 0 working towards 1...Anyways 6 months later I'M BAAAAAACCCCCKKKKK and started up again on P90X with my Girlfriend and we're almost half way through it and starting to shed some of this weight and seeing positive results and incredibly enthusiastic about the future. I Love BeachBody products and Tony Horton Bring It BABY!!! Cuz I AM!!! Seeing progress in my inches and in the way my clothes are fitting excited, not there yet, but on the way. Keep losing inches and gaining more muscle tone, exciting to see the 6 pack coming through the insulation :o) Cheers!!
It's funny how life provides plenty of distractions, you have prioritize your fitness, it has to be part of your lifestyle in order to see success.
Play. Shake. Share.
It's that easy...

Hey everyone update as of 10/29/08, a few things I'm getting married in May :o) we're very happy, but funny thing happened I was focusing, focusing, focusing on all the details of my business I neglected the most important part, to push PLAY!!! Well I've since fixed that distraction and am now 150% dedicated to losing 40 pounds by May 2nd our Wedding Date!!! It's time to bring it X style!!!! I'm using Chalean Extreme to take it to the next level, I have no option my choices have been narrowed down to a singular goal I must be back in shape before our wedding MAY 2ND here we come!!!!

Update** 05/15/09**
So in my goal of reaching 40lbs lost, I didn't succeed, I lost 17 lbs before my appendix began to inflame, I didn't know at the time that's what it was I just knew I had horrible stomach pain and wasn't for sure. I didn't want surgery so I fought the pain since December 27th. Finally 2 weeks before my wedding it almost ruptured and I was forced to have it taken out. Thankfully it didn't rupture I shouldn't have waited so long, but now I believe I'm recovered no pain in the stomach region and ready to go after P90X, It's unbelievable how much has happened to me every time I go to start a round of P90X. Nothing has stopped me yet I'll push through and reach my goal!!!
**INSANITY**
Need I say more, I don't know that I would recommend what I'm about to put myself through, but I'm so sick of being out of shape that the only way I see to resolve it is to go CRAZY or INSANE :o) It's time to Dig Deep & Bring it Home!!! I'll keep you posted!!!
