Hi everyone. My name is Bob. Im a 39 y/o who has struggled with his weight for my entire life. I am married to my wife of going on 7 years, Karen. I work as a paramedic in a small town/rural fire department and cover a 100 sq. mile district. A couple years ago I was at my highest weight ever. I spent a year of my life working out and eating clean and lost an amazing 100 lbs. It was the best Ive ever felt about myself.

Well a year and a half ago, after acheiving such great results, I had quite a rough stretch. A few injuries to my shoulder and knee kinda limited my workouts. At the same time my grandmother passed away and we bought a place on a few acres and moved. With all this going on I let things slide thinking "I'll get back on track soon, just need to get things settled down first".

"Soon" became a year and a half later and still didnt get back on track until about 4 weeks ago. I am getting back into the exercise habit again. As well as eating much better than I have in some time. I wish that I was now continuing from where I left off after losing the 100 lbs, but dishearteningly I gained a substantial portion of that back. And instead of feeling as good about myself as I have .. I got back to feeling just about as bad about myself as possible.

I am hoping ... scratch that.. I am GOING to get back into shape and finish the goals I have had for myself back in the day. Since the first of this year I am down around 15 lbs. I will be starting to integrate some of the great beachbody videos into my workout routine with the goal of by late summer starting P90X and finishing a round of that by the holidays. Then continue on from there.

Well thats the updated story of me.. for what its worth. Here's to seeing you all around on the message boards again. Good luck to you with all of your fitness goals.

Transformation story

I have used P90, Power Half Hour, Great Body Guaranteed, some Hip Hop Abs, some Turbo Jam as well and have recently completed a round of P90 Masters Series. I am also doing a 2000 calorie/day meal plan and taking multivitamins. I am learning that you get out of it what you put into it. It is becoming part of my daily routine to workout and eat healthier and is becoming less of a chore. Eventually I hope it becomes second nature.. and it will in time. On 4/4/08 I reached day 225 in my transformation into someone who is healthy and fit and to date I have lost 98 pounds and 45 7/8 inches, lowered my resting heart rate from the mid 80's to the high 40's/low 50's and am feeling better than I have in some time. If I can do this, anyone can, you just have to set your mind to it and commit. I think that MDB and WOWY have helped me a lot. I like WOWY so I can keep track of my workouts as well as journal and the MDB site is great.. the peer support a great way to keep motivated as well as to hold yourself accountable. Remember to push play and BRING IT!!! - peace
