MillionDollarBody - BeachBody.com
Hey, I finally join the Million Dollar Body from Beachbody.com! I started on last Monday, July 14, 2008 and my program is the Beach Body, with Tony Horton, 10 Minute Trainer DVDs. I have seen a lot of bloggers and success stories that this is a great program to work out with. I'm will be giving my results on this blog to let people know if this works for an over weight person like me.
I'm 36 years old and with a my busy life like everyone else has, I thought the 10 minute training dvds would be appropriate for me. Here is my before and after photos. UGH! I don't feel like that but you can see, I have a lots to do. I want to show the world that I can do this and that you can too, by the simple exercise and eating the proper foods. Enjoy to my success of my weight loss.
Beside of the hard workout you get from beachbody, you also get from the program is support from message board, chats and tips on cooking and fitness. Plus, when you do work out, you can log on to the million dollar body WOWy and join or find a buddy to work out with and share each other experience. Its a great support program if you are doing it alone. Also, when you do log on to WOWy, there is a chance to win prizes and money. How cool is that.
My first week was very stress from work but I did do 2 dvds every moment I got a chance. Some of the exercise are hard to do but I did my best and I know everyday I get better at it. You all can do it, too. Nothing is easy nor hard, you just got to try your best and work on it. Wish me luck. I post next month of my results to see how I am doing.

Go To the Movies
It's is very hard not to go for the popcorn with butter or the king size candy bar which is 800 calories (with those calories, that's your dinner, if not more). So, I would suggest to go for a mix of pretzels, almonds (nuts) or raisins. Skip the soda or pop and get the water bottle.
I usually bring an empty brand water bottle and fill it up at their water fountain instead of buying it there at a price of gallon of milk. To a movie drive-in, you could bring fruit like grapes or an orange or maybe bring a granola bar which is satisfying cause of the fiber. My mom always brings hard candy to suck on like sugar free - its cool and refreshing. What do you bring to the theaters?
