When I first found this website in my app store on Sunday January 8, 2012 I was 234lbs. 5'11" and very uncomfortable.
I experienced back pain everynight
I experienced heartburn everynight
I would stay up late watching TV or playing video games.
I would sleep in and get to work between 9:00am and 10:30am each morning with little or no energy.
My jeans hurt to wear, but I refused to buy anything larger.
Then I found the app and decided to make a change.
My girlfriend works from 7am to 3pm each day so she is always in bed early. I never considered myself a morning person, so I hadn't joined her before.
Now I go to bed at the same time as her and go to the gym before work. My hours have remained the same, but I get a great workout in and have more time with my girlfriend.
Within the first week my backpain started to go away and my heartburn stopped entirely.
My jeans are now loose and this morning I woke up at 5:30am without the alarm, got ready, had a full hour of cardio and was in the office by 8:20am!!!!
I feel better now than I have in a very long time.
I used to think I needed to do nothing to relax. Now I know that all I needed was some excersize to sweat my stress away.
Cheers,

i hate to ask this... but what is NSV?

That is great!! Good job sticking to the morning routine! I think it would make the rest of the day so much more energetic and positive! I also wake up with back pain and have major heartburn. I take 3 pills a day for it. I didn't know the change in exercise could help! Thanks!! I just might follow your lead!0
