I will be 41 years old in December 09. As a young man I was always fairly fit. I grew up on a small farm and was accustomed to doing manual labor. It kept me strong and fit. I also played ice-hockey. In my early 20's I also had jobs that required a lot of physical activity. Since 25 I have had sedentary jobs, lots of sitting, driving, and office work.

On Father's day of 2009 I took my daughter swimming at the local pool. After changing into my swimming trunks I was entering the pool area when I saw myself in a full length mirror. I was shocked and embarrassed by what I saw. At the time I weighed 232 lbs, stand 6 feet tall. My waist was 37" and I lacked any muscle tone. At that moment I vowed that I would change my lifestyle and appearance. I had worked out some in my early 20's and knew a little about fitness. I began the next day, I started with cutting all the junk food out and trying to eat clean. I then hit the treadmill and my weights. In seven weeks I lost nearly 20 lbs and started to see some muscle appear. Then we took our Family Summer holiday. I tried to maintain the fitness during the two weeks and actually did quite well although the diet fell apart. When I got home I checked my weight on the scale and found that I had regained 5 lbs and was hovering at about 218lbs. I seemed to be at a plateau. I had been watching youtube videos on weightloss and am really interested in ordering the P90X program. I came across the free Beachbody Membership page after watching Sergio's P90X Youtube video. I decided at the risk of being inundated by email spam I decided to sign up for the free Beachbody Membership. I hope to learn more about fitness and eventually order and complete the P90X program.
