UPDATE: Well here it is almost December 2009 & it's been way too long since I've been in here I'm ashamed to say. Started a new job last January and have been working full tilt at trying to start up this new business of mine. Haven't had much time for me at all little lone time to w/o like I used to all the time. Shame on me I know!
Just bought a couple of horses for my daughter and I so I'm looking to spend some serious hours in the saddle. Anyone that says that's not working out is a fool. It is if you know what you are doing I guess.
Hoping that's going to get my started back on the fitness trail again. I'm 10 lbs heavier than I was but hanging tight there so that's not bad considering the hypo and what not.
I'll do my best to get myself back on the wagon and will try to pop in here more often as well.
I miss all my BB gals and my 'Turbo Addicts' challenges that I did for a few years on here.
Sure wish that they would FINALLY get the Coaching open up here in Canada. I would have never left if they did I'm sure. Some day.....some day!
Take care BB Bud's! Miss you all big time!

aka
Jam'n Tami :)

As of September 2007....I am now an official "TURBO KICK INSTRUCTOR". I'm so happy about that. Now I am going to start the ball rolling to bring TJ/TK to the Maritime Provinces here and Nova Scotia. Look out!! Can't wait!! Can you believe where I have come from and where I am now? I sure can't. THANKS MDB for giving me back my life!!!

I have a number of serious medical issues that include a spine disease, Anklyosing Spondilitis {it also effects all your organs including your heart,brain, liver}. I have severe sleep apnea, hypothyroidism, fibromyalgia, get migrianes, immacular dengeration, IBS, Colitis, etc. I have been thrown way too many problems over the years. I got to the point that I was just laying on the coach, watching everyone else enjoy their lives. I had to sell my horses, lost all my friends because they too were sick and tired of me being sick and tired all the time. I just couldn't really function anymore. I was seriously depressed and know that if it wasn't for my gorgeous daughter I would have allowed my depression to completely take over my life.

To top things off I have always been on the slim side up until about 7 yrs ago. Laying there getting fatter all the time was only adding to my already over whelming depression.

My doctor kept telling me it was just because of menapause and being in my forties. I didn't agree. She finally had some blood work done and found out that my thyroid was low. I started taking medication for this but I still needed to work hard at losing these extra pounds as they seem to come off slower once you've had a thyroid issue.

I'm sure that between my sheer determination and these work outs I have no choice but to reach my fitness goals.
The message boards have been so incredibly important in my journey. The support and motivation that you receive on there is second to none. Thanks to all my w/o buddies for being there!!!

I shudder to think of where I would be if I hadn't seen that informercial on TV. THANKS TB you've made this almost 50 yr old woman very happy. Now I look forward to what's in store for me for the rest of my life instead of wishing it was over. I literally owe you my life!!! THANKS!!!!

My Progress

My fitness goal:

Transformation story

I started using SI6 on October Friday the 13th 2006. I was hoping that it would bring me good luck instead of bad. That's exactly what it has done already. I used the SI6 programs for four weeks then started doing Turbo Jam. I've been using TJ, HHA's some P90 and PHH as well. I just started my Round#3 of P90X and I'm proud to say that I am a P90X GRAD!! I've now lost a total of 48" and 38 lbs to date.

I signed up for the Turbo Addict Challenge back in December 2006 and have been doing those ever since. I've been helping out by being a Captain in the TJ Addicts challenges for over the past year too.

I'm very dedicated to working out and have got much better at my diet end of things as well. I've learned that one without the other just doesn't work. The water has been the hardest part for me but I've got my better at that also.

My birthday was on March 21st and I'm turning 47 years old. I want this year to be my best as far as my fitness goes. I can't believe that I'm almost 50 and pretty much in the best shape of my life.

I'm hoping to sign up to be a Coach on this site once it's up and running for us Canadian's. I enjoy helping other's reach their goals as well and have been doing that all alone. Being able to do that with MDB behind me would be the best of both worlds.

I was also a winner of one of the "Chicken George's TJ Camp Scholarship Funds"! Being one of only six ladies I feel very lucky and blessed to have been picked. Since then Grand stepped up and bought my round trip ticket through her Frequent Flier Miles. Another lady has started a "Get Tami To TJ Camp" fund on the TJ Addicts thread. I just keep being blessed more and more every day. Finding this site has really changed my life all the way around. THANK YOU BB/MDB!!! I will be ever so grateful!!!
