My name is Jacklyn and I come from a rather large family. My mother has already had gastric bypass surgery and all of my biological grandparents passed on rather young. I have always been the little one persay, so I never really thought my weight was a problem. I actually didn't realize I was bigger than most until I joined a my sorority in college. At that point, my attitude shifted from I am of average size to maybe I am a bit chunky but a little junk in the trunk never really hurt anyone.

Fast-foward to age 26. I went into the doctors office for a routine check-up and my bloodwork came back showing that I had high cholesterol. That scared me. I buckled down and went from weighing 184 to around 170. Then I slipped back into my old ways and put about half of that weight back on. I kept telling myself that I needed to change, but I didn't really know how to eat properly. Like I said, my mother has already had gastric bypass, so needless to say growing up I did not exactly eat how I was supposed to. My husband and I ate out SEVERAL times a week, and my idea of a "snack" was two microwaved burritos with sour cream and salsa on the side.

I discovered Power90 through an infomercial for the P90X. A co-worker of mine and her husband had lost a ton of weight on the program...he actually won $10,000 through Million Dollar Body for his transformation. I talked it over with my husband and we decided to get the program. We figured well if we fail at least we know it is not the program's fault.

Thus far, we haven't failed in the slightest. The Power90 videos are doing their magic and the diet plan helped us find healthy things that we enjoy eating. So far so good ;)
