Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?

My life was very sedentary before the program. Bad relationships and stress from work and school added to a ton of gained weight. Apart from work, there was very little physical activity in my life, and it was depressing. The only thing  worse than the general funk I was in was my opinion of my body. I’d lost some weight in the past but nothing that ever really made me feel accomplished. I was convinced I was just going to be everyone’s fat, funny friend forever

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody® help you overcome that challenge?

My life was crazy sedentary before this. I had been in pretty good shape once upon a time, but that was almost 10 years ago! My biggest fear was simply not being able to do what the beautiful people on the TV were doing. This is where the modifiers absolutely saved my life. I stuck with low impact and eased my way into the full workouts at my own pace

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?

The intensity and the physicality of Beachbody programs were awesome! There is no way you can do some of these moves and combinations without feeling like an absolute, monster badass!

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?

I dropped 56 pounds! I’ve lost inches from all over my body, more than I can accurately keep track of! And I have started building lean muscle! Those are my results, and I’m proud of everything I’ve accomplished. But for the record, my arms, while slimmer than ever, do look pretty sweet!

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?

I feel better. I look better! But the most defining moment of change for me was having a conversation with a friend I’ve known for years, and talking with him for a full 5 minutes before he realized it was me! I keep getting that more and more these days. I’ve never been so happy to not be recognized.

How did your Team Beachbody® Coach support you on your journey?

Krin was always there encouraging me! She kept me motivated and saw change and progress in me when I didn’t see it myself. She put up with my silly questions and helped me through rough patches. I really don’t think I could or would have done this all the way through without her.
