My Overall Goal: Lose Weight

Success Story

Melody Martin Won $1,000 in August 2009

An injury forced 51-year-old Melody Martin to gain 20 extra pounds. Unable to work out for six months due to the injury, Melody became depressed and basically a couch potato.

"I stayed home at night. I sat on the couch. I watched TV. I didn't eat as healthy as I should have been because I guess I was just feeding my frustrations through food."

But during her "couch potato" days, she kept seeing the infomercial for P90X®. Each time, she watched more and more closely.

"What really intrigued me about the P90X workouts when I was watching the infomercials were the stories of these ordinary people and how it changed their lives. That just intrigued me immensely."

When a friend purchased the Muscle Confusion™–based workout, Melody noticed his great results. Believing that if it was working for him, it would work for her, she ordered it.

"I was just amazed at the product that was in this little package, and how much it does for you and for each muscle that you want to work out each day."

It took some time to build her stamina, but each week she kept telling herself that this was truly a lifestyle change, and she was going to push through. Melody also turned to the nutrition guide included with the workout. She loved that it was a complete plan.

"It tells you how much you should eat a day, and actually gives you so many different categories to pick from that you can get great recipes. Oh my goodness, I love the recipes in here. I make so many over and over again because they're just great-tasting recipes."

With the help of "X," Melody has trimmed nine inches off her body and four percent of her body fat. At 51, she is confident and not afraid to wear a bikini at the beach. She loves having her energy back and is now getting ready to incorporate Tony's One on One workouts into her regimen. For all of her hard work and dedication, Melody is an August $1,000 winner in Beachbody's Million Dollar Body Game. Way to go, Melody!
