My Story
I was a skinny kid growing up. Even in my 20′s when I became pregnant with my first child I was warned by my doctor to put on some weight. I was 105 and had been training for a marathon, and I felt great. Well, I did what the good doc told me to do, and I gained 25 pounds.
Then I had my second son, hadn’t taken off all the 25 pounds I had gained with my first, then I had my third son, and the ball started rolling and I rolled myself into a pleasantly plump middle-aged mom. I was working full time, had a crazy busy life running after three little rug rats, and always seemed to be on a new diet or exercise program to try to get back to my slim & trim days before children.
Soon, though, my weight crept up to my all-time high of 170 in January 2009. I’m 5′ 4″ and 170 put me into the obese category! I was so embarrassed when we got our pictures back from a beach vacation in November 2008. What a sad sight I was, even though I tried to hide under an old-lady’s bathing suit with a skirt.
Well, my two younger sons had ordered this crazy-looking P90X workout program off an infomercial, and from January to March of 2009 my middle son Jeff did the program. He followed it to a T – the workouts and the nutrition guide – and he got absolutely ripped and the healthiest he’d been in years.

He suggested I try Power 90, a shorter, easier version of P90X. I thought heck, if he could work out 60-90 minutes a day and get those results, I'd be happy working out 30 minutes a day and getting half his results. I also liked the idea of having a set start and end date, 6 days of workouts per week, 1 day of rest, and a nutrition guide to follow.
Well, the rest is history. I am HOOKED!!!!!!! So far I've lost 40 pounds, 30 inches, and 20% body fat - gone forever. I've got so much energy, I sleep like a baby, I'm not hiding under big old men's work shirts anymore (or bathing suits with skirts), my heart rate and cholesterol levels are great, and I am physically and mentally strong.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE BEACHBODY'S WORKOUT PROGRAMS, AND I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE TONY HORTON, the Power 90 and P90X instructor! He's got a gift, and he makes you want to keep coming back for more.

Welcome!
Who would've thought jumping, kicking, punching, jabbing, crunching, lunging and jack-jumping with sweat pouring off your face would be fun?
Well, I'm here to tell you it is, and once you've got the fever, you don't want to stop.
With small steps and consistent effort, I know you will experience the same joy that I have found through exercise and eating clean. You will be amazed at the changes you will see, inside and out.
It is so awesome what the human body is capable of!
Welcome to my blog ~ I hope you enjoy it and catch the fever too!
