When I Started:
Jan, 2009
How I Started:
I have always tried to keep my body in shape but have not really had to work at it until the past 6 years. I guess it comes with age, I never had to work this hard to look good! LOL! Now all of a sudden I can't eat like I used to or get by without exercise. And since I sit at a desk all day that def doesn't help! I've had 3 children but I had them all young, by the time I was 21, and so was still in shape after having them. Around 25, 26 years old I began having to really work at it and the past year and a half my stomach has gotten to the point I just can't live with it. It's out of control. It just keeps getting bigger and bigger and looser. And I can't fit into my size 3 jeans, a 5 is pretty tight. This HAS to become a way of life for me!
Why I Love It:
It gives me energy like something awesome. I find even 20 min of working out 1 set of 12, 10 exercises, will give me 2 days worth of energy! Talk about a return on your investment! I'm not very tired after working out I just feel stronger. I know that I am DOING SOMETHING to improve myself and my life.
How I Stay Motivated:
I am a great student and will read anything I can get my hands on! If I understand how things work I get VERY motivated to make it happen.

My goal is to lose 15 pounds and gain muscle by Summer. I want a sculpted body, mainly in the stomach area.
Goal (Long):
I want to lose weight. My clothes are getting too tight to wear. I was at 110-115 and am now at 130-132. I started out in Jan. at 136 so its coming off but slowly. I also want to gain muscle and definition. Sometimes my friend and I participate in Swimsuit Competitions mostly for fun and are getting ready for one in March. I have had three children and the youngest is 10. Lately I've been battling my stomach and hips. My stomach justs feels huge all the time and it keeps getting bigger and bigger. I want to get back to that 115 or even 110 but with some muscle by Summer. My husband says I have the perfect body for building muscle.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 20 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
10%
Upcoming Contest:
Swimsuit Competition Panama City

I thought losing fat was hard, but gaining muscle is harder! Girls definitely never have to worry about getting too big.
The other problem is being able to gauge it. Because losing fat, it seems, you can gauge a little easier. You see the scale going down and the measurements going down....
I am new at weights.
I use the Bowflex.

Thanks :). I'm starting out with just cardio right now, but I'm going to start lifting and doing cardio next week. My metabolism is waaaaay down. I need to boost it up. How is your training going?
You look great. You have a healthy look. I also love performance cars, and am into road racing (not straight-line drags, but have done those too). Best wishes to you and your family!--Manny
