In January 2007 I started getting weird liver blood test and it was suggested by my Doctor to lose some weight. At that time I weighed 226lbs at 5 feet 11 inches. From January 07 to July 07 I was able to reduce my weight to 189lbs, but was still over 25% body fat.

I was a 44 year old type one diabetic with Rheumatoid arthritis taking insulin and cholesterol lower drugs and drugs for arthritis. In January 2007 I started getting weird liver blood test and it was suggested by my Doctor to lose some weight. At that time I weighed 226lbs at 5 feet 11 inches. From January 07 to July 07 I was able to reduce my weight to 189lbs, but was still over 25% body fat. The good news was since losing the weight my cholesterol dropped to the normal range and was not required to take drugs to control that any longer. I started reading on the Internet how to keep the weight off and everything I read suggested weight training. Up to this point I was not doing any exercise. In July 2007 I started weight training at home and by January 2008 reduced my weight to 175lbs and was at 18% body fat.
I have been trying a number of things to lose the last 6% body fat and put on some muscle but am really struggling. In the summer my business partner suggested P90X since I liked to workout at home and felt it could get great results. I passed the pre Test in February 2008 and made the decision to give P90X a try.

Its March 2009. My stats are 195lbs and 20%bf.
