At this point I had NO idea that I would be competing this year. A trainer challenged me to join him in a 12-week pre-contest diet he was doing, just to see what it was like, and to go home and take pictures. This would be the beginning of a great journey. 122 lbs...21.1%BF!

DEDICATION!!! From only a few short months ago till now, the changes have been astounding. Once the decision to change was made, you put your heart and soul into research on everything bodybuilding, fitness and nutrition. You are living proof of what I've always believed; the iron has the ability to not only change one physically, but to improve all other areas of life. The tide is high; ride the wave! Proud of you son!

How blessed we are that in our 'corner of the world' we get to enjoy a peaceful, Holy night. May we always be mindful of the gifts of HOPE, PEACE, LOVE and JOY that were given to us that first Christmas long ago.
They really can't help, but become fans. Specially since they get to see fisthand how hard we work. My mother is one of my biggest fans, and loves going to my shows. :)
You are so special Carla, thank you. Have a wonderful day with the family. In a couple of hours we will be travelling to see our beautiful grandkids. :)
