Transformation Tuesday: Matt Lost 32 Pounds with Beachbody
Matt G. had a back surgery that made him shy away from working out for fear of getting hurt again. But as he gained weight, he realized he needed to make a change. His core got stronger, he was no longer afraid of getting hurt, and he got some amazing results! He lost 32 pounds and 8 inches, and has kept up his healthy lifestyle for two years! Read his story in his own words below:
I hated looking in the mirror. I got sick of seeing how out of shape I had become. I used to be in great shape and due to health issues I quit exercising – I had a major back surgery in 2009 and that led to a lot of weight gain.
I didn’t really exercise much because I would get tired quickly. I felt ashamed to take off my shirt at the beach. I thought Beachbody would work for me because I saw how much everyone sweated and I knew that INSANITY would be super intense. When I first started with INSANITY, I just hoped to make it through the workout without throwing up. Now, I can complete any Beachbody program out there. I can also now mountain bike, jog, run and work in the yard all day long!
I have completed INSANITY, FOCUS T25, P90X3, P90X and INSANITY MAX:30! I did one round of each and two rounds of FOCUS T25. I now have the confidence and energy that I had in my early twenties. I’m in great shape and I’m looking forward to continuing on my journey with Beachbody.
My weight has fallen from 212 to 182 lbs. I’ve got more energy than I’ve had in years. I’m healthy and happy. Shakeology has helped curb my appetite and improve my digestion. I ended my last program with the 3-Day Refresh, and I thought it helped me with digestion and helped me rethink how I eat sometimes. It helped to get me in the habit of drinking more water.
I’ve kept the weight off for nearly two years now. My blood pressure is perfect and my body is in great shape. I’ve turned the page and I’m back on top!
