Just got this letter from Emily the other day and I asked her for her permission to post is. I thought it was just wonderful and shows so many amazing things. Creating a daily habit of exercise and eating properly are two of the most powerful ways we can affect our lives. Just in a short period of time the affects can be seen.

I love being a Beachbody Coach and getting things like this. I know Emily is going to keep on with this. When you are seeing benefits like this, how can you not?  It’s not fluff, it’s not a game, this is serious life changing business and I love it!

“Hi Will,

I did really well last month.  I am on week 4 of phase 1, and I’m quite enjoying this recovery week.  Here are the things that I surprised myself with in these past 3 and 1/2 weeks:

1. Yoga! I am getting close to doing the Crane and I can do the one move where you are in a warrior stance and you have to clasp your hands behind your back and underneath your leg.  I definitely couldn’t do that move for the first 3 weeks, but this most recent time I did yoga I could do the move, I was absolutely amazed. I’m really enjoying yoga.

2. I’ve lost two inches around my hips, 1 inch on my waist and I’ve lost 5 pounds.  I know it doesn’t sound like a lot but I only have about 12-15 lbs. to lose so I think it is a little more stubborn.  Plus I have had some sweets in the past 2 days, oh birthdays..haha.  But I’m not worried about that, I don’t feel off-track at all.  In fact, it wasn’t as satisfying eating sweets as I thought it would be, so I’m definitely not in a hurry to eat it again.  It kinda brought me down.

3. I have soooooo much more energy, I can wake up at 7:30 and be ready to work out by 7:45.  I don’t feel groggy and hazy in the morning, also my lower back isn’t achy anymore! I was used to waking up every morning with a sore back…not the good kind of sore. But I haven’t felt that once since I’ve been doing P90X…maybe it’s the yoga :-)”
