My wife was losing a lot of weight, and I looked really weird
standing beside her. She was definitely my inspiration!
What made you decide to lose weight?
My wife was looking so good, and I was just the fat guy with
her!
What were the most important changes you made to lose weight?
Exercise & diet. Mostly exercise. I work out with free weights,
and I ride a bicycle pretty much every day!

Being disciplined to exercising everyday.

How has your life changed now that you've lost weight?
Life is totally different. My wife & I are now the talk of
the town.
How did ShapeFit help you reach your weight loss goals?
ShapeFit.com gave me plenty of different exercises I could do.
I still go to the web site to find new & exciting exercises!
I bought a used free weight bench. This thing had about 30 exercises
that could be done on it, but the problem was that the guy I bought
it from had thrown away the exercise chart. I went online, and
with the help of a search engine, I landed on ShapeFit's web
site. The exercises listed, along pictures, was a VERY big help.
I still to this day, check out other exercises. I change my workout
every 5 weeks! ShapeFit, you guys were always an inspiration to
me, THANKS!
