I gained 95lbs after my son was born!
I was always thin, (thin FAT) the BC I was taking messed me up with an overload of Hormones, I gained weight just drinking water! I felt horrible I never had to excercise before (So I thought!)but now I knew I had to!!! I worked by a hill and wilderness park in Burbank CA, so I started walking up that hill at lunch everyday. It was tough after 3 months I was able to run 3 miles for the 1st time in my life! It took me 50 minutes and then from then on I took off! My friend and co-worker was into bodybuilding but had stopped so we worked out together and encouraged each other, later she got her certificate as a trainer! * I miss her! - Ellen! -good friend *
Why I Love It:
I cant believe HOW GOOD IT FEELS!
There are NO negatives ALL POSITIVE Physically, mentally, emotionally! :)
* UP UNTIL 3 MONTHS AGO, I NEVER REALISED HOW MUCH BODYBUILDING CAN SPEED THINGS UP! I mainly did weightlifting before as an aid to speeding up my runs, NOW IVE SEEN THE LIGHT!!!!!!!
How I Stay Motivated:
I think about my son! and I Love the results! getting RID OF ALL CELLULITE! YUK!! AND SEEING MUSCLES!!
BB Accomplishments:
COMPLETED LOS ANGELES MARATHON 2007 (5hrs 10mins) & 2008 (4hrs 7mins) !!!
YYYESSS!!! LOVE RUNNING!!
LOVE WEIGHTLIFTING!!
Now I do about 10-15mins of Cardio to get the body and heart going and Weight train for 1 hour and then do 30 mins of cardio. On upper body days I will run for cardio at least 3 miles. On Legs /glute days I will do bike 20 minutes to 30 minutes or at least 20 minutes bike 10 mins fast walk...

I want to say you are not only a motivation for all women and men, you are simply amazing. You not only transformed but became an athlete as well. Running a marathon is not for the weak of heart.
