I was always a person who expected more of myself. However, my confidence never congruent to what I desired out of life.

Then, one day, out of sheer disgust for the way I looked, decided that I would no longer be the fat boy in school; I would no longer be the guy who was too embarrassed to rip his shirt off in public. I decided to try P90X. It was one of the most grueling workout programs I have ever experienced. It was like the equivalent to taking steroids (I guess).

In about 75 days, I went from 241 pounds to 185 lbs. only because I wanted to be special so bad. I started to eat up all of the "Wow, Clifton, you look awesome!" compliments. They kept coming. But something else didn't... my motivation.

I had a workout partner that I would wake up around 5:30 in the morning so that we could "Bring It!". Due to unforseen circumstances, we weren't able to workout together anymore. I had no support system. I had no one to challenge.

Shortly, my 6-7 days per week workout plan became 3 to 4 days, and eventually 1 day per week and sometimes even less than that.

In less than a year, I gained nearly all of my weight back. I climbed to 234 pounds in about a year.

Thank God, two more blessings showed up in my life... Insanity and TeamBeachBody.com. With Shaun T's new program, I will be ripped by my 35th birthday (in about 60 days). And joining TeamBeachBody.com and becoming a coach fills the void of having the support system I need to make my workout lifestyle fun and exhilarating again.

If you desire some motivation, it's all here. If you need someone to talk to, I am here for you.
