When I Started:
Oct, 2006
How I Started:
My dad died a year and a half ago and I ate anything and everything. Last fall I realized I couldn't go on like that and I started to eat less and made an effort to work out harder and more consistently. Since then I have lost 40 pounds. I have discovered that I have some muscles under all that fat, go figure. Losing the weight and all the comments help me to keep going.
Why I Love It:
I have been overweight most of my life and have hated it. It makes me feel good about myself and helps me stay focused. One of the things I have realized is that I really like working out. It relieves stress and has help me stay out of depression. Now that I have lost weight my cardio work out is much easier and I am noticing changes in my body. IT JUST FEELS GOOD!
How I Stay Motivated:
The motivation comes from the changes I see and feel as I become healthier. The comments and words of encouragement from others also really helps. Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to be a part of my support team! I stay motivated by seeing the transformation of my body. I am getting the body I have always wanted. That gets me excited!

I am so glad summer is here.  this last year I had one of the hardest groups of kids in my class.  I am worn out.  It has been really rough.  The gym is my reward and my de-stress time, but I have been very inconsistent because of my kids baseball.  Games and practices and pick up and...

Hey Dennis, glad to hear your still alive! lol. I'm doing o.k. But with work, cleaning a rental property (yuk) and every thing else, it makes it hard. I still can't seem to gain weight. I am seeing a difference in body fat and I am lifting heavier weights, but unable to get past 165lbs. I will try to post some new pictures when I get a chance..Not much change, but more definition I think in the ab area anyway...

Dennis, You definitely can see the improvements you have made!!! I am going to make a change in my diet and try a different supplement to see if that can help out in gaining some lean muscle.. No one said it would ever be easy. :-)
