Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
Before I started, my activity level was classified as sedentary. I was out of the military and got very lazy. I ate fast food three times a day and did not limit anything that I ate. Part of the time, I had no idea I had gotten so huge. Then it hit me, and I felt awful. I was always trying to suck in the gut and cried every time I went shopping. I felt awful.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
Just realizing what I had done to myself. I was only 22 and letting myself become so inactive and, to myself, unattractive. Once I had my daughter, I had even more inspiration to change so I could provide her with the tools to make healthy choices of her own.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?
I struggled with infertility, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, thyroid issues, and then a divorce. Honestly, nothing at that point could stop me from getting to my goal. I became very determined. I didn’t let excuses stop me from starting, even when people told me I was not in shape enough to do a Beachbody program.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I am proud that I can actually understand the parts of my body I have to focus on when doing each move. This program really gave me the ability to learn about focusing on the muscles I am using to get the results I want. No more will I just go through the moves of a workout without focusing on each muscle I should be engaging.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
Wow, my life has changed so much! I am now a Coach and a very happy mom that has a little toddler mimicking all the Focus T25 moves. I would definitely say I have become far more fit, and I have become such a better mother. Depression set in when I became a single mom. Through working out every day and reaching my fitness goal time and time again, I have become so much happier. That reflects in how I parent. I am now raising a daughter in a positive manner who is also learning about healthy food and staying super active.
