I am 44 years young. I have been married to my wife for 18 year 1 son, 2 daughters. I work at an automotive supplier factory QC Tech. By night I am a website designer. Weekend Chainsaw Sculptor. Interest: Fitness, Chainsaw Carving, Web Design & Mountain Biking.

All my life I’ve struggled with being over weight and low self-esteem. In the mid 80s I when through a fitness phase which lasted about a year. In the 90s I played video games got fat and lazy. In 1995 2 discs in my lower back got herniated trying to play base ball. I was in so much pain I had difficulty getting out of bed. That pain motivated me to get in better shape. I lost weight and watched what I eat and got in to pretty good shape. My back pain subsided, and soon after so did my motivation. I gained a lot of weight and at my worst weighted 259 lbs and had indigestion, heart burn, high cholesterol, broke out in sweats with the slightest effort and had no energy. In 2006 I was channel surfing and an infomercial for P90X caught my attention. As I watched I was mesmerized and thought “I can do this, I need to do this”. A year later I made the decision to commit to purchasing P90X and in November 2007 I got started my P90X journey. I ordered the chin up bar, push up stands, supplements and was well on my way to rebuilding my body and life. P90X has made me feel younger and stronger then I’ve ever felt. February 2008 I completed round 1 of P90X.

The story continues in April 2008 I found out had dad got terminal cancer at 87 years old. He passed away in June. I slipped back in to my old eating habits and lack of exercise and for near 2 years have struggle with weight and depression.
In 2010 I've determined to put all this behind me and start fresh!

I've committed to a start date of Feb 22 2010 to Bring It with P90X.

Day by day I will claw my way back to were was and beyond one day at a time.

See you at the top.
