I recently purchased P90X and will be taking the P90X 90-Day Challenge. I will take a picture, and post it along with a few notes, every day; for the full 90 days.

I'm doing this because I've reached a point where I can't take being out of shape anymore, and I really don't have time to make it to the gym.

In addition to the rewarding results, I figured that by posting a picture every day, it will encourage me to stick with it.

Please feel free to leave words of encouragement as I take on this challenge.

Update:

Received my P90X stuff and will be starting on Monday, February 1st.

Buyer beware. It's an old story, but certainly not an uncommon one. And while I am fully aware of the loathsome tactics sometimes employed by companies in order to turn a profit, I can assuredly tell you that I am furiously appalled, nay, downright sick-to-my-stomach over the way M6.net "attempts" to provide customer service. I say "attempts" because it was truly; a shameful display.

Here's what happened.

A good friend of mine has a website, which we will refer to as "genericdomain.net". His registrar (M6.net) had informed him that both his domain and hosting package was up for annual renewal. Ok, no biggie, we can easily transfer the domain and hosting right? ...WRONG!

After nearly 2 weeks of wrestling with their terrible customer service, filing at least 10 support tickets with as many replies in broken English, trying to get the domain unlocked, retrieving the EEP Key (authorization key), pushing the account information to their domain registration control panel, and 2 failed transfer attempts.

I opened yet another ticket to see WHAT THE HELL was going on in M6-land.

Well, as it turns out, they openly stated that they trying to force my friend to pay the annual domain registration fee before they will offer any further support! ...He has over a week left before his domain registration expires.

Talk about a horribly run business, and a business model designed to fail.

If any company treats their customers that way -- they are going to fail; it's simply just a matter of time.

Not to mention the downtime, lack of technical capabilities of their "support," and the slew of other terribly poor ratings and testaments given to M6 throughout the Internet.

The bottom line is: I strongly suggest to avoid M6.net at all costs.

Pay a few more dollars, and get better service.

Also, for your reading pleasure, I have appended the last ticket and response below.

We are transferring genericdomain.net to another registrar. We have unlocked the domain, had the information pushed to a domreg-m6.net account (accountname), got the EEP key, and initiated a transfer at the other registrar... however, it seems that the domain transfer is still being stopped.

Please advise.
