As a US veteran I had always been in great shape. My wife was also very athletic in and out of the gym. While in our 30s we saw a decline in our physical capabilities even though we tried to create better eating habits. One day Laura told me she was giving up dieting. I had seen her try almost everything out there including some of the best diets money can buy. So as our weight started to increase we started to accept the fact until we started the challenge. I have managed to put on 10 pounds of lean muscle and my wife looks like she jumped out of a time capsule and came out a beautiful rose.
