edited January 7 in Success Stories
At the end of 2009/beginning of 2010 I was tipping the scales at my heaviest weight 210lbs. I could hardly believe the number on the scale or how I had let myself go this far.

In 2010 I made a commitment to change my lifestyle for good. I began with Jillian Michaels DVDs and C25K.

At first the weight loss was slow, but I stuck with it and eventually started seeing results.

After I got started I couldn't stop and I've since completed P90X, Insanity, GSP's RushFit, and am currently doing a ChaLEAN Extreme and TurboFire hybrid. This is me now...

To reach my goal weight of 130-135 I will need to lose 10-15 more lbs. However, I am not as concerned with the number on the scale anymore and would just be happy to get some more muscle tone which is coming with ChaLEAN.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read about my journey!

    Great work! You've made an amazing change.You look great and I love the new hair color!

    How do you like TurboFire? I'm going to start it later this month and I'm excited/terrified because I've only done gym cardio and power yoga so it is intimidating :frown:

    Thank you! I don't follow any specific diet plan I've just changed my lifestyle and the way I eat. I eat more fruits, veggies, and lean meats. But I also eat a treat if I want to and all of the foods I loved before this journey. It's all about portion control and making sure the food fits in your daily allowance :)

    Don't be scared TurboFire is so much fun! It is challenging I won't lie and in the beginning the moves are a little hard, but it doesn't take long before you get the moves down and you're having so much fun it doesn't even feel like a workout! Good luck!
