My fitness journey began in July of 2006 when I reached that "ah-ha" moment, pushing me from longing to be healthy to making it happen!

For as long as I can remember, I've felt like I needed to lose weight and get into better shape. After getting sick in 2002, my weight crept up and I was bigger than ever. Before I knew it, I tipped the scales at over 220 lbs! After seeing photos from work and a visit with family in July of 2006, I realized it was time to reclaim my health and be happy with my body once and for all. I started my transformation with the help of an amazing personal trainer. I had NO idea what I could do and, believe me, the first few weeks were harder than I ever imagined. I barely had enough energy to workout in the morning, make it through a day of work and feed my dogs before falling asleep on the sofa. The results were slow and steady - almost 65 pounds lost in just about 2 years! But the cost was more than my budget could handle and, after achieving success but falling shy of my goal, I had to give up the trainer.

I couldn't find the motivation to workout on my own. I gained weight, unable to fully maintain my weight loss, let alone continue to reach my goal.

I finally found my motivation again when a friend recommended Tony Horton's Power 90 workout. I LOVED the workouts, Tony's quirky humor and the convenience of working out at home... not to mention the cost factor: I bought the entire set of videos for the same price as one private workout session with my trainer!

Now that I'm back in my leaner frame, I have new goals of modifying my body composition to lean out, fine-tuning my muscle tone and finishing what I worked so hard to achieve.

Join me in the journey - let's workout and allow Beachbody to help us create our healthiest bodies ever, TOGETHER!
