"If you follow the plan, it will work"
Hey Marc,
I just want to thank you and all those at Team Scivation, especially Derek for all you do for us. I got my program and am so eager to make my goals reality. I don't think you understand the impact that good people like you guys make on someone who is really down on themselves. I look at myself in the mirror sometimes and hate what I see. But following you, and Derek, and seeing that anything is possible with dedication and determination gives me hope.
I know that alone I can do it, but with the Team behind me I know 110% that I can do this. The accountability alone is motivation to never quit.
A wise man said "If you follow the plan, it will work" and I believe that fully.
Thanks again Marc, you are a good man and I hope that you understand how much you mean to people like me.
Later!!
John

This Time Would be Different
It was Christmas but I was not happy. I had let myself get fat…AGAIN. I looked at the scale on Christmas morning and 257 was staring back at me. I measured my waist and couldn’t believe it said 45 ½”. 257 pounds??? 45 ½”??? I played college basketball for 4 years and professionally in Europe for 2 years…what happened?
I can remember telling myself that I was not getting any younger and I have too much pride in myself to look like this. My children need a role model for a healthy and active lifestyle. This time, dieting was going to be different. No more yo-yo dieting. I was going to make a lifestyle change.
I am a competitive person. Just saying “I want to lose 20 pounds” would be too easy. Anybody can lose weight by being active and not eating as much. This time would be different. I made it my goal to get muscular and lean enough to see my abs. On December 26, 2007, I would start my journey.
I was already a member of the bodybuilding.com forums. I knew about SciVation’s Cut Diet and Xtend from reading posts and talking with members in Derek’s section. I selected the P2BP workout, started the Cut Diet and started drinking Xtend around my workouts. I even sipped it during the day because it was sweet enough to curb my hunger. Little did I know I was keeping my body anabolic all day long!!
Team SciVation came out with an amazing offer of “Free training and diet”. I quickly took this opportunity and began working with Derek. He started me on the TriPhase workout and the CHA eating plan. He answered all the questions I had and on Sunday I would send him a weekly progress report. On Monday he would send me changes or keep them the same.
After 4 ½ months with Team SciVation and 8 months total on my transformation I was ready to show off my hard work in pictures. I wanted to look as good as possible so I followed the SciVation Game Day principles for the week leading up to my final pictures. I stepped on the scale the morning of August 30th and it said 204 pounds! I got out the tape measure and was in disbelief when it measured 35 ½”! I had lost 53 pounds of fat, 10” from my waist and gained tons of lean muscle!
My dedication, drive and desire to achieve my goals never quit during this ride. If you have these qualities then joining Team SciVation will allow you to have your best body ever. I used their training techniques, dieting principles and drank Xtend during EVERY workout. Join Team SciVation and I promise you that this time will be different!
