My weight loss journey has been slow but sure. I have never been really heavy but I have always had to watch it. I have always felt I needed to "lose 10 pounds". I began to really love exercise after my second son was born and I really never thought that would happen because growing up I was not very active nor would I have considered myself athletic. It's not always easy and there are plenty of days when I want to be lazy but I feel soooo much better when I make myself get up and do it! I feel the fittest I have ever been and it's not about a number on the scale (we all hate that part don't we?) or a size of clothing but it's about feeling good and being our best. When we take time for ourselves than we have more of ourselves to give. I know it's hard work and I have not yet reached my "goal", but I enjoy the journey and will continue to push play. I would love to help you as well, if you need encouragement or advice please let me know ( I cannot contact you until you contact me), I can be reached at rockinsteph@q.com May God bless each and everyone of you. Let's do this together!

Quick update: I am now doing the Chalean Extreme program and it is so much fun. Chalene is kicking my butt and I love it!!! I thoroughly enjoy and look forward to each workout. I am starting to see my body change and I am so excited to see what is to come.

I finished Chalean Extreme (Loved it!) at the end of March and thought I'd just keep going until school got out and then I thought I'd start a round of P90X--for real this time! Then I thought, "Why wait for summer? Why not start now so I'm in better shape for summer!" I started in April and today is June 11 and day 53 of my 90 day journey. I have to say, I have done this program off and on for 3 years now but when you follow the schedule laid out in the guidebook-it's amazing! It works and it works great! I love the way it makes me feel! I am seeing muscles I have never seen before and it's great! I love the fact that I am getting stronger and everyday I actually look forward to what I am going to do. I love the Yoga X--I never ever thought I'd say that! I am more flexible than I've ever been and overall, in better shape than ever before. P90X is an awesome program and I'm so happy I decided to jump on the X train! I will finish on July 18 and that will be just in time to start the newest Beachbody program called "Insanity" with Shaun T. I look forward to the challenge!

Keep working hard, you'll be so glad you did! Push play, eat well, take care of yourself! You are the only one who can do this for you! I would love to be the one to help you so shoot me an email (rockinsteph@q.com) and let's do this together!

July 20, 2009 Day one of "Insanity"--I'll keep you posted but so far after 5 days I'm feeling it (so sore!) and loving it! It's the hardest workout I've ever done in my life but MAN WHAT A CHALLENGE! I love the challenge and seeing just what I am capable of, I'm stronger than I ever knew! Here's my advice when doing something that challenges you beyond what you thought you could do: don't stop because it's hard, push through and tell yourself YOU CAN DO IT! You are stronger than you think and if you believe it--you can achieve it!

Ok I finished "Insanity" at the end of September, 2009. What an amazing program! It challenged me to my absolute limits and I LOVED it! There were times when I thought "Are you kidding me? You want me to do what!!?" The best part is by the end of 60 days I could do things I never thought I could do! It was challenging both mentally and physically. I cannot wait to do another 60 days. For the time being I am doing a mixture of Rev Abs and Insanity with a little dash of P90X. It makes for a great workout! Never a dull moment!
