'I have always had an issue with my self-confidence and the way my body looked. My body started developing at a very early age.....I can remember being teased in the second grade because I already needed to wear a bra. Along with developing early comes the assumption from others that you are older than you really are...and I was forced to grow up very quickly. By age 12 I started smoking cigarettes to \"fit in\" at school and at the age of 16 I had my first child. I never really considered myself \"fat\" I was just not healthy and mindful of what I was putting into my body. After many years of this unhealthy lifestyle I met my husband and we have had 2 children over the course of the nine years we have been together. I was the happiest I have been in my entire life; but something was still missing.....I was not happy with myself. It was early 2012 when I first learned about Beachbody from my best friend. She had been experimenting with many different diets and ordered the Turbo Fire. She was having so much fun and loosing so much weight that I HAD to try it out. She let me borrow some of her DVD\'s and I started out doing the workouts after work. Each day that I pushed play I kept getting better physically and mentally. It was not until July 2012 that I decided to \"Decide, Commit, and Succeed\". I bought the Turbo Fire program for myself and took my before and after pictures and measurements. I also joined a Challenge group...I was pretty skeptical of this at first, there was NO WAY I was going to share \"sweaty pictures\" with people I don\'t even know. So I lurked in the background for a while and slowly started to come out of my shell. It was a really great way for me to see others going through what I was and all of the encouragement I was given just made me keep pushing harder and harder. I completed the 90 day program and had lost about 10 pounds, it was something but I was not getting to my goal weight loss. I talked with my coach and she suggested that I add more strength training, since using the Turbo Fire I was already a fan of Chalene Johnson so the perfect program for me to try next was the ChaLean Extreme. I completed the 90 days using the resistance tubing and dropped another 15 pounds!! I loved the program so much that I wanted to do it again but this time with some real weights so I invested in some Select Tech Bowflex weights and I continue to do both the Turbo Fire and ChaLean Extreme using the Hybrid schedule. Here I am almost a year later and am in the best shape that I have been in my life! I have lost a total of 30lbs and continue to work on self-develop every day. I am living proof that even if you haven\'t taken the best care of yourself for the last twenty years. There is no better time than today to be happy and healthy! I get asked all the time by friends and family, \"What are you doing, you look great\"! The positive exercise trickle is even happening in my home, my husband started to do P90x and we recently purchased The Beast and he is about halfway through that program! It has not stopped there.....my oldest daughter who is 16 has started the ChaLean Extreme and NOW my father in-law just started out with the 10 minute trainer! After influencing so many people in my family I see so many people that are overweight (mostly adolescents) that I want to see happy and most importantly healthy! I want to make a difference in the youth of this country and share what exercise can do for the mind, body and soul. We CAN \"End The Trend\" !!!!'
