About Me

My photo
A little about me. In my normal life, I am a civil engineer who sits behind a desk everyday. I got married to my wonderful husband in 2006. Since meeting him and our many days of eating out and less working out, my weight started to creep up. In August 2007 my girlfriend wanted to get back in shape after her pregnancy. She talked me into running weekly with her. I agreed, and this began my plan to get my body back in shape. I wanted to add some additional workouts to my run, so I pulled out my old Slim in 6 videos. At the same time, I re-found the online message boards at Beachbody where I meet a lot of great people who kept me committed to my fitness goals. I also found a great coach who was there everyday to help me stay on track! Today, I'm still working to sculpt my body and get it into the best shape ever. As I have progressed through my body's transition, I decided to become an Independent Beachbody Coach to help others reach their fitness goals! I realized it was easier then I thought, and I really believe others can change their lives too!

My Transformation Story:

My journey started about three years ago when I could not look at myself in the mirror. I had difficulty walking up a flight of stairs without gasping or becoming out of breath, not to mention I had extreme pain in my knees from carrying around excess weight for twenty years. I had gained a lot of weight with both of my pregnancies and had never taken any of it off. When I had seen the pictures of myself from my 40th birthday party, I knew I had to do something about my weight. I realized that if I did not change, then I would probably develop major health problems later in life. The first thing I did was turn to Weight Watchers. With their program I had learned about making better food choices and they gave me the support I needed at the time. With their guidance I had lost an amazing 85 pounds within three years. I learned that you not only need good nutrition to loose weight but exercise as well. I had introduced walking at first and then slowly added in some home workout DVD’s. I eventually was introduced to Debbie Seibers on a TV infomercial, and bought Slim in 6 and The Slim Series. While incorporating these routines into my journey, I was able to achieve my weight loss goals. It wasn't always an easy clear path, I stumbled across many road blocks and plateaus, but I did it! I had reached my goal in November of 2007 and became confident in my new image, so I stopped attending the Weight Watchers meetings. I did not want to rely on attending weekly meetings, or to get weighed in each week to stay accountable. I wanted to try and succeed on my own.

During the tax season of 2008, the busy time for my work, I became lazy with my workouts and eating habits due to the workload and late hours. By the time tax season came to an end on April 17th, I had gained back 15 pounds. It was hard to get back into my fitness routines and regain my motivation. I knew what I had to do but I kept struggling without any success. I would lose a few pounds and then gain them back and I was not getting in my exercise consistently. I then realized I needed a support system to continue my fitness goals.
When I originally purchased the Debbie Seibers DVD’s from Beachbody, there was a suggestion in the package to log into the Team Beachbody website for support. At that time, I did not use this feature while using her programs. When I realized I was having difficulty getting back on track with my journey, I decided it was about time that I checked out the website and I must say I was impressed with what I found. Beachbody is a huge family of like-minded people, trying to accomplish the same things, which is overall health and fitness. I liked that I could track my exercise routines daily, and work out with people who are committed to working just as hard in WOWY, along with tracking food choices and planning meals. I have found Beachbody to be the support that I needed through other members and chatting on the forums about weight loss and nutrition. I am now back on track, dropping the excess pounds and reshaping my physical appearance due to the programs and support from my coach and friends that I found at Beachbody. The website is very informative and has great information on nutrition and menu planning along with trainer tips and the ability to chat live with the trainers. There are a vast number of exercise programs to choose from, depending on your fitness level and desire.

I have enjoyed reading success stories of other Beachbody members for inspiration and I feel that now is my turn to pay it forward. So I too have become a Beachbody coach and I hope that I may also be that inspiration for others to succeed as well! I will be starting the full roation of Chalean Extreme to kick start 2009, and I would love to help you succeed with the program that you have chosen to use! Please join me on my Journey, and visit my thread "The Fitness X-press" for support. Together we will commit, succeed, and find our final destination!
