I was raised in a small town (1500 people) were everyone knew everyone. I have ALWAYS struggled with weight, but was able to be "average" athletic build by staying active. Even in high school I was a size 8-10 and around 150 lbs (kinda big for my 5'5" body), and have always hovered about there. I have always enjoyed working out, but have rarely been routine with my workouts. In 2003 I moved several thousand miles away from my friends, family, and career. I became depressed and quickly became a size 12 and topped out at 185lbs. Thankfully I found a terrific job and surrounded myself with active people who encouraged me to run in the morning, walk at lunch, and play volleyball at night. I did come back to a size 10, but still struggled to find a routine I had fun doing and fit my life. Then came kids... In May 2005 I had my son. During my pregnancy I gained 40+ pounds. A very close friend had a daughter struggling with Leukemia, and we thought that if she could stuggle through her torturous treatment we could struggle through training for a marathon to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, and in February of 2007 I ran the Walt Disney 1/2 Marathon in 2hrs 6min (6 min over my goal). This got me in the best physical shape of my life. A very fit 145 lbs. Not even a month after that I had a hard time making time to run and quickly became the chubby 155 lb woman I just figured I was destined to be. Then baby number two happened and again I gained close to 40 lbs. She will turn a year old next week and I can say I got all the "baby" weight off, but my body is NOT the way I would like it to look. Things just don't go back the way they used to be! This is what prompted me to try P90X. I am active. I teach a total body toning class. It's not enough. I am hoping that P90X will be extreme enough to take me from chubby mom of 2 to TOTAL HOTTIE!

My Progress

My fitness goal: Tone Up

Transformation story

I finished day 90 of P90X in May of 2009. I lost approximately 15 lbs and was as "cut" as I have ever been! It was truely amazing. With summer schedule, vacations, and more I was not very regular about doing P90X and gained about 5 lbs. I am able to stay at this weight and fitness level by teaching a Zumba (cardio dance) and Toning class. I have a hard time starting back on P90X because of time contraints and excuses. I just ordered Insanity and am excited to try a new program. I hope to incorporate this into my fitness regeim, not necissarily following the exact schedule, but make it work for me. I am excited to get "cut" again!
