Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
Brandy
Sex:
Female
Age:
Location:
BC, Canada
Occupation:
Crazed body builder, works for hubby, happily married, mom of 3 teen+ boys. Gotta luv the males in my house!
Personal Website:
Primary Gym:
College:
High School:
When I Started:
May, 2007
How I Started:
I have been working out on and off for several years, but that all got put on the backburner for a few years by a demanding job. I have changed jobs and started working out with a vengence in May 2007. Got into kickboxing a year and a half ago and am totally addicted to it. Luv'n it!
Why I Love It:
I am amazed by the transformation I have been able to achieve. I believe you can achieve any goal if you really put your mind it. It also helps to enjoy it while your at it.
How I Stay Motivated:
I love reading about other BodySpace members' progress/motivation and just seeing my own results keeps me going. I like to reward myself when I reach goals too, though not through food. Maybe a hot new pair of jeans or some new workout gear!
BB Accomplishments:
Hey, I lost a lot of weight on my own! That's significant!

Maxing out at 175 lbs. Front - Grey Cami messy hair
The photos taken on this vacation were the catalyst that got me going on getting into better shape. In this photo I maxed out at 175 lbs.
Here's a more recent almost full body shot. I've actually put on about 3 lbs, oooohhh big deal...so I'm not as lean as I could be, but seeing muscle in shoulders, arms and WOAH...are those quads? Some in glutes too, but you can't see that here, ha, ha.

One word to describe this guy's physique - PHENOMENAL!!! I don't even have to mention the abs this guy has. Everyone knows them. If I think mine are starting to look half decent all I have to do is look at his abs and see that I need to do A LOT MORE work! He keeps me motivated, love ya Nick!
MsFitFern [ BodySpace ]
I love her, she's funny, down to earth and is a huge inspiration by showing that you can change your world and your body if you really want to! Go Fern!
