I am a very busy girl, balancing full time work, full time school, a social life and working out 6 days a week. I was always skinny in high school, but in my mid-twenties I began to gain. I had no idea my weight had gotten so out of control, until I saw some pictures taken of me at a family BBQ. My mother has struggled with obesity my entire life, and at the age of 57 she had a heart attack, I am a very busy girl, balancing full time work, full time school, a social life and working out 6 days a week. I was always skinny in high school, but in my mid-twenties I began to gain. I had no idea my weight had gotten so out of control, until I saw some pictures taken of me at a family BBQ. My mother has struggled with obesity my entire life, and at the age of 57 she had a heart attack, which was enough to convince me that I would not follow down the same path. I am resolved to becoming a more fit and healthy person, and I am on my way to changing things for the better.
I don't want to be a super model, or one of "those" girls who is weight obsessed. I love food, and I do not see it as my enemy. I want to be healthy, smart, sexy and fun. Over all I have come to the conclusion that your shape is not an indication of how healthy you are. So long as I remember that, than I believe I will accomplish my goals in life.

I started using P90X, and after 30 days, my weight went up 1 pound, but my body fat percentage has dropped over 3%. Muscle does weigh more than fat, so it's just a matter of time before the weight drops off as well. I went from initially only being able to do 15 pushups and 30 crunches to 30 pushups and over 70 crunches !!..I also won $300.00 in the million dollar body contest, so if I ever needed motivation to work out, now I have it.
After a few weeks of P90X I injured my ankle pretty bad, and decided I was far too out of shape to jump right into that workout, so I started Slim in 6 to try and get my cardio up before I go back to the P90X. I have lost about 10 pounds doing that, and I am now ready to start mixing in P90X again. I have decided to mix Slim and 6 and the cardio aspects of P90X together to build up enough endurance before mixing in the heavy weight training. My initial goal was to lose 15 pounds, but now that I am down 10 I am creating a new goal, to lost another 10 more pounds. I miss workouts somedays, but I figure this is a lifestyle change, not a program. I do not expect perfection, and I will screw up sometimes. The important thing is to make sure that if I miss a day, the next day I get right back on the horse and work out again. After awhile it will have to pay off.
