I had weighed 230lbs. I was so depressed and about to go up another pant size and everything else in my life seemed to be going wrong as well. With not much support from anyone, I had to finally sit down and really analyze what was going to make me happy. I came to the conclusion I wanted to lose weight and feel good about myself again. So in March of 2009 was the beginning to my body transformation.

When I had started working out I was clueless to what to do or what anything was except a treadmill. I worked with a trainer as much as I could to guide me and answer my questions. The very first day I met with my trainer for the fitness consult. I told him he had to make me hurt. He looked at me a little puzzled. I had said to him, that if I could not feel any pain from it. Then I feel as if I have not accomplished anything. He smiled shook his head and asked me if I was ready. I remember looking at him and saying No Mercy!!! Since that moment on that has become my motto. From that moment to now I have realized the pain, the adrenaline rush, the drive to push more has become my passion.
