There were many times where people were less than encouraging or supportive then I expected, but it's my life, not theirs.... If you persevere, never give up and do it right (the healthy way), you'll hear those things too so get ready. It's not easy because people sometimes do not understand but you must do it for you and press on, regardless of what family, friends or whoever else, might say about it...

In fact, you are my #1 story so far! I've read through this post and saw that a number of people are interested in hearing more detail about your transformation, routine, etc. That's exactly the response that I was hoping for when I first contacted you. If you are up for it, I'd love for you to write another story that goes into more detail regarding your diet and routine. I'm sure the readers here would appreciate it as well. Also, I need to get your husbands story too! I didn't realize that both of you had such great success! Ask him if he would be interested please. Its the stories of people like you and him that provide the inspiration for us all to keep on the path.

Its the stories of people like you and him that provide the inspiration for us all to keep on the path. I missed the reference to your website. If Gen doesn't mind, could you please re-reference it, or PM me? I'm curious. I do a workout with a kettlebell now, and have gained back some weight (about seven pounds from my profile picture) from eating too much and too much of the wrong food. I am interested in increasing the weight I lift, so I ordered a bigger kettlebell. I'm going from 15 to 20 pounds. I'm interested in what your website says so I can gain even more inspiration and get my head in the right place to eat right. Gen, thank you so much for posting your story, including the wonderful pictures. You were beautiful before, but now you really shine. Congratulations on your effort and on the results.

Thanks everyone! Here is the link for where my story is:http://www.realbodiesrealresults.com/gen.html I will be writing in more detail about what helped get me to where I am so it's a bit basic at the moment but check back soon for more info there! And 20lb kettlebell is awesome. I use a 25lb kb currently so that's great, keep it up! Do what's heavy to YOU.
