Hi my name is Chad Curry and I have been wanting something to help me get into better shape and learn about eating correctly. I used to be in the military and served in Desert Storm and Bosnia. I am a 38 year young(I always think I act and look and want to be young) married man with a 13 year old daughter. I have struggled with staying fit or wanting to stay fit for a few years now and smoking was a big problem as well as eating out during lunch and most my dinners with no breakfasts at all. Fast food was a favorite. I have quit the smoking and was looking for something to help me with the weight and nutrition part now.
I recently came across the infomercial for Tony Horton and the beachbody P90X program. I watched because it grabbed me and shook me to get up and do something. I didn't order the first time I saw it. I did alot of research on the internet and saw the results/success stories on beachbody's website. Then I asked for this program for a Christmas present. While waiting I researched more and more. I saw people from my home state and even city being successful with the program so I emailed and started to talk to my coach Scott. Very helpful person and knowledgeable person about the program.
What started me thinking just recently about my life and the continued downfall I was heading in was a medical physical I took and the results I received. In the past I have always just got by by thinking I am o.k. and an occasional softball tournament or golf outing would keep me fit and "underweight". The physical results were telling me something different though. High cholesterol, low good cholesterol, high triglycerides, high body mass index , and just an overall high level of bad stuff creeped up on me not even knowing. I saw myself in the mirror one day and saw an abundance of belly and just not a great perception of myself physically. I heard someone say one time what you eat at age 20 is how you are at age 40. I was eating terribly and things that would just sit and not be useful for my body. Well I am almost there and what I have been eating and doing is not what I want at 40.
I am happy to know through my research and emails to Scott, other people on the message boards, and Customer Service that there is a support group, motivated people to succeed, and a YOU persona of this program. I know I have to put the work in to succeed with this program but I am not alone here.

(UPDATED) I was off of or hurt my leg and did not continue with P90X for almost a year now. I have put on the pounds again and started eating not so good. I asked my wife if we could work out together as we once tried before with the P90X. It was a bit much for my wife to do alongside me. So we have our new INSANITY program and started together to get fit and succeed in this together. I know the results will come and the motivation will be there as well because I have my life partner and friend doing this with me.
