    Doesn't seem to be many of us, but we're here. Congrats on your great start! YOU CAN DO IT! (ps-P90x is hard, there is power 90 available also through beachbody.com that is supposed to be less intense than P90X)

    UnFortunately women are under alot more pressure to be thin. Now if anyof the guys on here could give me advice on how to motivate my husband to workout? He is about 40-45 lb overweight and has some health issues that his doc believes r due to his weight. He is not even 30 yet! Unfortunately he thinks he is fine does not think he is fat although he acknowletes he has a belly. On top of all that, he smokes. I have tried signing him up at gyms, telling him about this site etc. If anyone has any new ideas please let me know!

    The first two weeks of P90X are the hardest. Muscles you never knew you had are sore. You hurt when you're lying still. But once you make it past those two weeks you begin to look forward to your workouts. The one thing I find with P90X is that although you'll see results just doing the workouts- to get the full benefits you have to follow the diet also. :-)

    Good Luck!

    I would think that most people would agree that until someone acknowledges their is a weight issue, and feels ready to change, there is absolutely nothing you can do to change that persons behavior. good luck
