Hollis' Entry: I retired from the military two years ago and have fallen into bad habits of snacking and watching TV after work. I believe this type of opportunity will get me back into shape. The nutrition part will get the rest of the family involved.

I am willing to commit to 12 weeks of supervised training to gain a lifetime of better health for my family and myself.
