I have been fat all of my life and spent years blaming it on everything but myself. I smoked for 22 years and was up to 2 packs a day when I finally decided I had had enough and quit cold turkey. That was in January of 2009. I allowed myself a year to recover from that and in 2010, I started trying to change of lifetime of laziness and bad eating habits. I started eating more vegetables and fruits, cut out all white sugar and white flour, stopped eating any processed foods and started walking. At first, I couldn't walk for a full ten minutes before I had to sit down and gasp out my breath. A year later, I was walking several miles at a time, kayaking, strength training, doing various video workouts and swimming. I completed Power 90 in December of 2010. I lost exactly 50 pounds in that year, but the difference in my body because of all of the exercise is amazing. This year, I decided I wanted to go all out, so at the ripe old age of 40 and at 308 pounds, I have just started doing P90X on 2/7/11. I am going to bust through this thing! I have already started thinking about doing Insanity next, but I love Tony Horton so much, I hate to do something that he isn't teaching.

I've created a blog about my weight loss adventures at:

I truly believe that if a plus 300 pound, 40 year old woman who smoked for 22 years can do P90X, then there are no excuses for anyone else!
