My name is Melissa, I live in Florida. I'm a wife and a mother of 2 young children. Aleissa (5yrs) and Alex (2yrs). I've never had to worry about weight growing up, I've always been active in dance. Once becoming a mom, stopped danceing and started just taking care of the children. I had 2 csections with both my children and thought "Will I ever get my abs back"? It

Growing up I was always the tall skinny girl that danced. I continued all through my 20's dancing and looking in shape. It wasn't until I had my first child at 29 that I was introuble. I went through a rough and tough pregnancy, I had everything and to top it off I had a disease they call Hyperemisis Gravedurem, this basically I was extremly sick from being pregnant, there was no morning sickness this was everyday,hour,min sickness; I could see a commercial and get sick I can smell everything and get sick, I was unable to keep anything down. A nurse had to come to my home and stick me with IV's and anti-nausea meds. Needless to say I eventually go over that at 18wks and lost a total of 45lbs while being pregnant. NOT GOOD. I did gain weight later and gave birth to my daughter Aleissa via c-section. That was tough healing, I asked myself "will I ever have a flat belly again?" All everyone said is "your never getting that back" I beleived them all because they had the same problem. I meet people who did and my negativity turned around but the results were not showing. Losing my father to cancer wasn't easy and I felt alone, instead of doing my best to stay healthy because of his battle with cancer. Being that women that never had weight problems I thought I had this, my motivation was there my determination was there but since I've never had to lose weight I didn't have the slightest clue how difficult it really was. I've tried a ton of diets, I had a trainer, gym ect..I worked very hard but it just wasn't showing. Down the road 31/2 years later my husband and I decided baby #2 was in the picture. I had my son via c-section and went through another tough pregnancy as I did with my daughter. I lost 30lbs of course gained it all back. The healing was not as bad and I started the whole excercise routine again, that was not working. June 2009 a friend of mine told me about P90X, she also wanted to try it but didn't, I went to the website and saw videos and closed the site. A month later she reminded again about p90x,so I open the site again and read every word that was on there, watched every video including success stories called the customer service people 20 times a day asking questions. I wanted to know this was not another get thin quick scam. I probably read it every day again and again for days ok month. Finally I joined the club because I thought money was the issue but it was if you think about it. I'm a mom of young kids, I work full time and I have a busy schedule I need somthing close and convienent. I purchased the p90x with 3 payments YIPPY I was on my way. I purchased dumbells on sale and my pullup bar. I waited everyday for that UPS guy to come. I was ready. Finally it came I put that 1st CD in and PRESSED PLAY.. Then I paused it and said "what did I get myself into" but I continued and contineud. I'm eating better and getting up everyday at 4am while my kids are sleeping in the room next door and I'm a month into p90x and I love it.. I have to say there are is tons of motivation in the message boards. Thanks to all those people Mark Briggs, Mike & Tami and Ahsley and Tom.. I'm on my way to not only being a graduate of P90X but joining them and being a coach. One day I hope to change someones life as they are doing to mine. If I can do it so can you...
