I always admired athletic physiques & when I was a senior in HS, I struck up a conversation with my friend's brother who was a huge bodybuilder. Soon after, I was working out with him in a dark, smelly hard-core gym where throwing your weights was how you ended the set. I still love to throw my weights, but it's frowned upon at my gym. (lol) Still lifting 25 yrs. later!
Why I Love It:
Who doesn't love feeling fit & tight???
How I Stay Motivated:
I have 2 kids, and I want to show them how important it is to exercise and eat right. But to be honest, I really do workout for myself most of all. It's my 'me' time at the gym - I was a stay-at-home-mom for 15 years. I am miserable if I don't workout & I feel like a marshmallow!

This is what happened to my tight body after an entire summer of barely getting to the gym because it was 'difficult' with the kids home from school. I ate good food, but too much, dessert if it was there & drank Smirnoff Ice as if it were soda. I got out of shape and bloated. Yuck!
What supplements do you take immediately before your workout? Why?
I mix one scoop of whey protein powder w/ one sccop of NO-Explode.

It seems like most everyone I hear from needs some help getting motivated lately. The hardest part is getting onto & sticking with a clean diet. I also find myself in a self-defeating cycle for the past month & the only person who's going to get me out of...
well well well, look who we have here. Remember me?! ha, how've you been. I miss hearing from you.. my bodyspace life has been rather dull without ya. Not cool
Hey mama...checkin up on you. Hope all is well. Things are ok here. I've been getting cardio but NO weights :( No bueno. Still trying to get a hang of this clean eating thing...I must have a learning disability! lol cause it's been a year!
Deborah, I'm back in the gym to gain lean muscle mass between seasons. How's your training going? Looking forward to holidays and Xmas!! Have a wonderful week!! Cheers, Bryan
Hey DeborahAnn, you continue to look awesome! I remember from one of your blogs you use Princess Redline. I ordered a case and at only 1/2 bottle dose I can't tolerate it: Headache, jitters, nausea. Can you remind me how you dose it?
