What the Sixpacknow Program did for me

THE BEGINNING

When I joined the Sixpacknow.com website 14 weeks ago I had just gotten out of a serious relationship. It hurt me a lot, both emotionally and physically. No matter what anybody told me, I could not make any positives come out of a break-up. Now, 14 weeks later, I tell myself every single day that i'm glad I got out of that relationship. It was the best thing that ever happened to me, and i'm going to tell you exactly why!

If I was in that relationship now I would be still be exercising bad habits, day in and day out. That includes, eating fast food, particularly McDonald's and Taco Bell every single day for lunch ... snacking between meals, eating junk food, candy, and drinking soda pop... drinking large amounts of alcohol on a daily basis and not exercising. Many people would say I was never "fat" or overweight, but if you look at my before pictures you will see that I did have a decent amount of fat covering my body. I was approximately 19% bodyfat before I started the Sixpacknow program.

HOW I GOT STARTED

I joined the Sixpacknow program because I was single again and knew that in order to put myself out there with the confidence that I needed I would have to do something about the way I looked. Growing up I watched television shows like "Baywatch" and thought it would be impossible to ever look like the guys on there. I just assumed I didn't have the right genetics or the right body frame. I had been on diets in the past and lost weight but never had any muscles to show for it, especially abs. Like most people, I just ate less fat and calories, ran miles and miles on the treadmill, and did hundreds of crunches a night. I never saw results. So, as you could imagine, I was a bit skeptical of the program. When I read that I would be given a personalized exercise program and nutrition guide I figured that would take a lot of the work out of it for me. I payed the $50 and started the program on July 23rd.

THE HARDEST PART

I'd have to say the hardest part of the program is the very beginning, particularly the first 4 weeks. In my case it was even harder because I was going through depression at the time and cried myself to sleep every night. It was almost impossible to find the motivation I needed to do the exercises. As many of you have already found out, you need to make sacrifices in order to gain results. The reason I say the first 4 weeks are the hardest is because we are so used to a normal daily routine that once we change it and take away a lot of the foods we like, we start to really miss them! There is nothing wrong with that and I'll be the first to admit that I cheated a couple times. However, now that I'm 14 weeks into the program, it is not even an issue anymore. In fact, I eat MORE than I used to and still continue to shed bodyfat. It's amazing! Now I can zip right by McDonalds and Taco Bell and almost feel bad for the people who are lined up at the drive-thru ready for their generous helping of junk food.
