My little sister got married in 2002, and as her matron of honor I knew I couldn't stand up in front of all our family and friends and be the biggest girl up there. So I started running. I lost a fair amount of weight, looked okay for the wedding, but then slipped back to my old ways of eating and drinking too much. Fast forward to April 2006, I looked in the mirror, wasn't happy with myself at all and decided to get it together. I hired a wonderful coach who I'm still working with and I started lifting weights and eating properly and gave up alcohol.

I did it. I placed 6th..out of 7. I was by far the tallest girl, but they put us all in one class. Probably not the best for me. My goal was to not finish last, which I did accomplish. However, I was fairly disappointed in myself because my posing was not good. That is soooo much harder than...
Hey Amy, congrats on your show…I am ecstatic for you. I can remember when you were really getting ready for the show and now it’s over and you look great! Keep your head up and I’m sure you are going to make a huge impact in this sport. You look awesome!! By the way…I’m running my first 5K on August 23, so I’ll need some pointers. Right now I’m running about 15 miles a week. Suggestions? -Lorenzo
Thats cool, how old is your son? The team that i coach is 11 and 12 year olds. Yea my friends are the same way..They pretty much rely on me to be DD since i dont really drink. For the 4th im not doing much, i have a baseball tournament friday afternoon then probably just hang out and bbq. How about you?
Well that was nice of you. My weekend was pretty good. I coach a little league baseball team, we had practice sat. then i went to the A's vs. Giants game yesterday. It was a pretty low key weekend.
I'm still at World were I can work out in peace. I tried the new one out, but there was so many people (literally no room to lift DB's) and people talking to me that I couldn't get into my workout. Send me the info!
hello, well thanks for stopping by.. sorry for the long reply but i have had a very busy 2 weeks.. i just move back to Italy and getting on internet has been hard.. well i hope you are going good for september im sure you will be number 1 in Idaho... :)
I've I could I'd load my workout partner in the car and make it a roadtrip. We both enjoy going to contest and it's always better if you know someone. Yeah the beer thing is hard. I think it's my German Blood...beer is like Mother's Milk! LOL!
That's great about the shows. I wish it was closer I would definitely come and cheer you on. The no beer thing sucks. Just made a pledge to my BB partner Susan...no more beer.
Yo Amy!! wow you look wicked!!! Im doing great im working at a hotel, geting ready to be a multi millionair, the usual lol, You seem to be doing awesome!
