(Kirt has always had a life long battle with his weight. Here is he around the age of 7.)

I want to thank Market America so much for making Transitions. Before I went on Transitions, I was always picked on because I was the “fat kid”. People would make fun of the way I ran in gym class. I was 245 pounds, I could barely fit in the desks at school. I would come home and eat and play Xbox every night. I used walked so slowly. I wanted to do Transitions, because I was tired with my life the way it was going. My doctor told me I was starting to get high cholesterol. And that started to scare me.
(Kirt at a summer party in 2007.)
Then one day when I was with my family, my Uncle Dan said, “Kirt, how about this summer you come live with me and I'll change your whole life”. I thought, “Finally, someone is going help me big time”.
Just my uncle offering to help me with my problem inspired me to take those first couple steps in the very beginning (and knowing how awesome I was going to look when school started!)

My results were incredible! I knew I was going do well, but I didn't think I was going to do THIS good! Back in the beginning, I was 245 pounds on July 9th. I now weigh …..187 pounds! I lost 56.7 pounds. I lost 10% body fat. I was 40%, now I am 30%. I lost 9 inches off my chest and 12 off my waist!!!! I was a size 42 pants, now I'm a 34!

I feel sooooooooooooooooooooooo great about my results. Now I can shop for cloths in the mall and not have to worry if they don't have a 3 or 4 X shirt. Or size 42 waist pants. I don't have to special order the biggest cloths anymore. My friends are so proud of me that I lost all my weight. They think I look outstanding. Even people in school say “Kirt, Oh my God, you look amazing. You lost maddd weight!!!” and I said “Yeah I have! And I never felt better!!” Even my teachers I had last year and this year think I look amazing. One of my teachers wanted to know what I went on so she could lose weight too! Its just such a great feeling knowing I can go to school and fit in the desks. Now I fit in them and can put my head down all the way on the desk (because before I couldn't do that because my stomach was in the way).

It means so much that I changed my life. I went from being the “fat kid” playing Xbox all night and eating, to being normal like mostly every one else. Now I can say “I go to the gym everyday” like some of the people say on TV. Having nobody pick on me because now there afraid of my muscularness. And being able to have fun and not worry about my weight or my stomach holding me back! In such a short time my life has changed completely around and I love it. Thank you Market America and Transitions. Thanks to all my friends who supported me. And thanks to Uncle Dan and Aunt Raquel for changing my whole life around!!!!!!!!!!!!

Think we cannot change peoples lives!! I love to hear stories like this and say great job Kirt. Childhood obesity could be come the biggest health crisis we have ever faced and we have the power to stop it!!
We are sooooo proud of you. You look terrific. Keep up the great job. Uncle Dennis and Aunt Pat
well done young man, you go guy.
Way to go! All your hard work really paid off!!!! Part of the battle of losing the weight sometimes is not having the support system around you. Obviously you have that and your family cares very deeply about you and your health! Again, I'm very excited for your success in Transitions!
Hey Kirt,
I didn't know you had your story on a web page. Soon after I read it, I sent the link to my dad to show to my aunt to inspire my cousin into getting more fit. You look really good now. Keep up the good work and I'll see you at school.
Sincerely your friend,
Amanda G.
