P90X Results
November 6, 2008
Ok. I was never really going to post my fat pictures online anywhere ever. Because, dudes, I was a cow. Mooooo. And, I’ll be honest with you, I completely flipped my lid when I actually saw the before photos (for some reason the image in the mirror didn’t look nearly as horrifying as the photos). Like. . . I cried. A lot. And, that’s probably what got me to finally actually commit to something with undying certainty.
I took Day 1 photos, Day 60 photos. . . and then never took actual Day 90 photos because I got all preoccupied with that damned boy. So, I decided to start the program over again and took another set of photos last week, which reflect one month of no weight training but intense cardio, then one month of nothing at all (September was awesome!), then the past 5 weeks or so of running A LOT. I imagine it all evens out and we can say that the recent photos are pretty representative of where I was at Day 90.
So, funny thing, the image in the mirror now also doesn’t resemble the photos at all. These photos are incredibly magical and fantastic and I most definitely do not see myself as that thin or toned when I look in the mirror. Image issues much? Geez!
Anyway, because I’ve talked and talked and talked and talked and talked about P90X, and because it HAS worked wonders for me and I love it and I want other people to know that something works! Really!, I am shamelessly posting my fat before photos on the internet for all the world to see. Only because I get to also post the skinny photos for all the world to see.
Before that happens, though, let’s all agree to not discuss how lazy it was of me to not throw on a bikini or something less hideous than a non-matching bra & panties and socks in the before photos. Let’s also agree not to make fun of the fact that my head is missing from the before photos. I was not a happy camper in those photos, and also, I don’t ever want anyone to actually be able to prove that that is my fat ass. And, finally, let’s agree that we will pretend that you haven’t now seen me almost naked.
I have after pictures of my backside, but apparently not befores. . . interesting. So, anyway. . . TA DA!

Really, seriously, great. You look awesome. Makes me want to go buy it. Or at least borrow…

Absolutely awesome results. I think though you were subliminally attempting to make the before-shots less inviting by including the dog’s bum…
Seriously – very impressive!

WOW – Stephanie – you look amazing! Now I want to try it. I can’t seem to get below 145 right now so that would certainly appear to do the trick! Way to go!

Honestly, how did you find time to do it. I have the DVDs, but am trying to figure out when is the most optimal time to do it.

Typically, 10pm, after I put the kids to bed. I’m not gonna lie, it took TONS of discipline. ESPECIALLY on Plyo days. I’m relatively certain Plyometrics is the long word for Hell.
I’m starting the program again and have a group of friends doing it at the same time. I need to start a Facebook group or something to pull everyone together. Join us!

Definitely! I just need to make sure I have all of the equipment needed and plan to start after Thanksgiving. Thanks.

Great results! My wife and I are contemplating getting this, but the prices we’ve seen online vary so much. Are there different accessories we’d need to buy in addition to the DVD’s, or does everything come together?
Found you by searching P90X in case you’re wondering why some stranger is leaving a comment.

Looks like P90X worked for somebody else again. Nice work. Have you thought about being a Beachbody Coach? I am one. Let me know if you have any questions.

Wow. What a transformation — huge congrats!
I’m definitely still a work in progress, but you can check out some before and after photos of my P90X results on the blog.

I am just glad at least one girl posted pics of before and after! You weren’t bad to start with but all the other before and after of girls are not as drastic as I would hope (I would say I am about your range when I first started too). I am on my second week and feel amazing. P90X has been spreading through my family and I can’t wait to take the pics at 30, 60, and 90 days! Thanks again for being brave and posting- you look great and are keeping me motivated!

I’m just wondering if you had any stretch marks. It really doesn’t look like it in the before pics. I myself bought P90X but am having a hard time with discipline. I’m not huge, I am like your befores but I have two kids and when I was pregnant i was a toothpick so my tummy stretched. So i’m wondering if I’m gonna look like you or if it’s impossible.
