I never know what to say about myself, so I will just write what comes to mind. I live in Bay City, MI with my beautiful wife, two cats, and two turtles. We have a great life and enjoy spending time with our friends and family. Without my wife and my family, I would not be the man I am today.
I am a manufacturing engineer for SC Johnson, where we produce Ziploc bags, Saran, and Easy Zipper. My job is fantastic and brings new challenges to the table every day.
I am a huge M*A*S*H fan and can watch every episode over and over. I love camping, mountain biking, playing Guitar Hero, and watching movies. I am old school in my values and thoughts, but I like to have fun and believe life isn't worth living if you can't laugh at yourself.
The reason I started P90X wasto get into the shape I know I should have always been. I was never a great athlete, although I loved and will always love shotput, and I have never been truly fit. Growing up, I was always the fat kid and I have held onto that idea in my head for far too long. I fell in love with food at a young age and would eat even when I knew I was full. My weight made me feel ashamed, so I have tried many times to lose weight. I have never kept it off and have fluctuated often. Even my brother in his best man speech mentioned the ups and downs of my weight. Although I laugh at it, the statement is true enough to hit home. I need to get my self fit, so that I can safely have a future with my wife and future kids. I am sick of looking at photos or in the mirror and wishing for something different. P90X has given me the opportunity to change all of that.

For as long as I can remember, I have had a problem with weight. From childhood to adulthood, I have fluctuated like a yo-yo in my weight. I can recall three separate times in my life when I have lost weight and been "normal". But those times were short-lived because the weight came right back on.
During high school, I threw shotput. I had to lift weights every day, do cardio, and throw all the time. It was the most active years of my life and yet, I was still not in shape. I don't think I could run a mile if I tried.
So once college hit, I had no excuse to stay active. The weight piled on and I found no reason to take it off.
Finally, I lost a little weight for my wedding day. Yet again, after the day was over, I went back to gaining the weight. After two years of marriage, I looked in the mirror and asked myself why I continue to live like this. It isn't fair to me, my wife, or our future.
Finally, I was introduced to P90X through a friend of a friend. I worked out to P90X, lost 20lb, ran a half marathon, and felt great. But I let life get in the way of my health. My wife and I were expecting a baby boy, so I spent my entire efforts on finishing my basement and prepping the house for this new arrival. With that distraction and the constant fast food cravings of my wife, I quickly gained the weight back and here I sit at 267lb starting over.
One thing people always say about motivation in such things like exercise is that you have to have a "why" to keep it going. I didn't really have a why before. But now I have a beautiful 5 month old boy who smiles and laughs at me every day. I want to be able to keep up with him when he starts walking. I want to be healthy enough to see his life unfold. So on September 10, 2011, I started P90X again. I am committed to myself and to my boy to get through P90X. So much so, that I preordered P90X2 and am planning to complete that as soon as it arrives.
