Brady, TX

I'm 56 years old, married with four grown children and three, almost four, grandchildren. My
husband and I own and operate a trophy game ranch in central TX. I am a
high school teacher and coach, but have been out of the classroom since
2001. I am a Christian and I work for the National Council on Bible
Curriculum in Public Schools and help put the Bible as an elective into other
public high schools around the country.

I play tennis, hike, and run, lift weights, bike, and like to do anything outdoors. I also like
to read and write, and I have authored one book, meet Me at the well. I like
to quilt as well. I became a Beachbody coach because I want to help others,
especially those in my age group, achieve maximum fitness. Anyone can do
it! I encourage you to make a commitment to better your life. I will help you.

I've always been tall (5' 10") and reasonably slender. I am 56 years old and
very active. When I was 46 I started into menopause and noticed that bulges
and pounds kept appearing, even though I ate "healthy" and exercised a lot. I
thought I needed hormones, or just to exercise more. I gradually bought
larger clothes. It was frustrating because I had never had to think about
losing weight. In December of 2008 I visited a personal trainer in another state
who offered great advice and then told me that it was neither my age nor
menopause that was the problem. He basically pointed me in the right direction and I began on the advice he gave me. I enjoyed going to this personal trainer, but because he was so far away, I needed to find another source to help me on this journey.

When I returned home I had an email about the new Chalene Extreme
program, and since I had other Beach Body products I really liked, such as Ten
Minute Trainer and Great Body Guaranteed, I decided to try it. I followed
everything Chalene said, and imagine my shock when at the 30 day mark I
had lost seven lbs. and over ten inches! I was thrilled that something was
finally working. Overall, in about nine months (between January and September) I lost 35 pounds and 30 inches! I'm actually beginning to have those ripped abs, at my age!!! I didn't have ripped abs when I was 18! I've gone from a size 10/12 to a 3/4. I feel fabulous. I have noticed many other physical improvements. A few years ago I fell on the tennis court and hurt both my wrists. I've had pain in them since and could not do some exercises. The pain is totally gone and I can do as many pushups and tricep dips as I like. I used to have lower back pain at the slightest bit of activity. Now I NEVER have back pain, even after three hours of tennis, because my core is so strong! I keep lifting heavier and heavier weights as I grow stronger. I am also now a P90X grad. Now, in Sept. 2011, I am doing Insanity and have ordered my own P90X2!
I am fit for life--living long and living strong!
