Question:
Well, this might seem a little strange since im pretty much the only GUY and the only KID around here, But in January, I discovered Fit TV at 201 pounds. NO i wasnt gigantic becuase im almost 6 feet tall, but at 201 I was a bit chubby. Since then, Ive been working out with Gilad at 8:00 and Sharon Mann at 8:30 every weeknight. Wow, how great I always feel after those shows! Since starting, I have lost 15 pounds (yay!) and now weigh 186. My doctor and parents are thrilled, and so am i! My goal is to weigh 160 by June 15. Im sure Ill be able to do it if I really try hard!

Nutrionally, Ive been doing better just becuase I have been eating more realistic portion sizes. Before, I used to gorge myself on rice pilaf (which I loooove!) but now, I put one scoop on my plate and make sure no more goes on ;-)
Also, (something that Im very proud of) is Ive completely stopped drinking soda! I now drink only water, with the occaisional orange juice for vitamin C.

What Initailly motivated me was looking at a picture of me in a pool that past summer. After looking at that, I dieted off and on, but never started to loose weight till i discovered Gilad and sharon! I dont particulary care for peak performance, just becuase once, I watched it and couldnt even follow the instructor becuase her aerobic workout looked like a friggin ballerina dance with all these "Grapevines" and "Mambos" and whatnot. I especially Love Gilad's show becuase evrything is very simple to follow, and is very beneficial. (the same goes for Sharon!)

just 26 more pounds! yay! Frown Smile Roll Eyes Cool

Choices:
blaahh

Big Grin Hey I'm a kid too, turning 16 next week.
I've just discovered FitTV myself, And I LOVE Gilad's show. I'm pretty sure I'm starting to drop, and it's fun doing it. Much more motivated watching the shows here than just running hahaha. Smile Good job!
