My transformation story: Or as I like to fondly refer to it, "my how I found myself story". I was 29 years old, a wife of ten years, mother of two children. We had finally reached that place of "bliss"…..the marriage, the kids, the home, the career, the lifestyle, yet I was a miserable shell of a person. I looked at myself in the mirror each day with disgust, it wasn't just the weight (although there was plenty of it), it was the whole package. By society's standards I wasn't too far gone with my weight, but I knew. I knew I could be better, I knew I could live healthier, I knew I was cheating myself out of the best things that life had to offer. It was about that time that I heard Debbie Siebers speaking about SI6 and when I looked at her face and saw her excitement and belief in her product, I was hooked. I knew in my gut that I had come across something that was the real deal.

I began on August 1, 2004, I pushed play 6 days a week, without fail and I ate off of the top two tiers of Michi's ladder. It was hard at first to believe in myself in the beginning, believe in what I could do, but I read through the message boards, I reached out to people and I found inspiration. After one round of SI6 I discovered Tony Horton and Power 90, his program finished off the excess and tightened it all up. (A cool thing about BeachBody is that no matter what workout I choose they are all effective.) Within three months of finding BeachBody I went from 34% body fat down to 18% body fat, I went from a size 12, sometimes a 14, down to a size 6. I have to date lost a total of 25 pounds and countless patches of cellulite! I shed the weight and I found Kimberly. I found this person inside of me who was fearless, I found a woman that was truly happy, I found this sexy, fun girl who absolutely adores life. I began to love me, for the first time in my adult life I no longer cared what anyone else thought of me, I had complete freedom to be me. Which is so ironic, once I had the body, I no longer cared about what others saw, I cared about who I was.


I love this stuff. I love being a coach and instilling a belief in others that they too can achieve whatever goal they want to reach. I still have my highs and lows, I still get challenged, but never again will I be that person that is disgusted with herself, I am confident in what can be achieved. And I am grateful each and every day for BeachBody, for the changes in my life, for the friendships, and for the beach worthy body.

In closing, I chose to be a coach more than four years ago because I became passionate about helping others achieve their goals. A friend of mine made a comment once that has stuck with me forever: "If you climb to the top of the mountain you don't stay there long. Because once you've seen the majestic beauty you rush back down the mountain to help everyone else in your life get to the top as well. An experience like that is only improved once you can share it." That's how I feel about health and fitness. The only thing that makes it sweeter is to have others feel that amazing rush of knowing you did it, you worked your tail off and got the results you wanted. So please let me know how I can help, how I can support, how I can lift when needed! kim@idahofitclub.com
