When I Started:
Jan, 2008
How I Started:
I wanted to shed some extra pounds for my rugby season, and a friend of mine who is a body builder really set me up with a great plan that helped me see results quickly (even though I didn't follow it to a tee all the time! oops!). His obsession with working out kind of rubbed off on me and now I'm addicted to it.
Why I Love It:
My performance on the field has radically improved, and I am feeling much more secure about myself. I was never the kind of girl that got the "you look so skinny" compliments until now, and I absolutely love them. I kind of took a break from it for a while, and it was really easy in that time to lose my self-confidence. Working out helps me love me, which is really important mentally to get you where you want to be in life. :)
How I Stay Motivated:
Rugby practice motivates me more than anything else, but if I feel like I'm slacking, fitness magazines and gym literature (muscle & fitness HERS and Women's Health) are a huge help. Not only can I see what I want to look like, but I love to read and learn, so it makes me all the more anxious to try things out!

Goal (Long):
I got into a relationship a while back with a guy I thought would be really supportive of my fitness goals, because he had a lot of his own I thought could really compliment mine. He sort of, I guess you could say, put my goals down and told me what I was doing was stupid (not in so many words, but with him I learned you always have to read between the lines). So, I stopped. I gave up on myself because it suited what he wanted for me. I loved him, and I thought that all love required some semblance of sacrifice or compromise (he most obviously didn't). My self-confidence really plummeted and I gradually began to really just hate myself. He noticed, too, and added insult to injury. We went through a devastating break up (for me, anyway). I layed around in my sorrow for a while, but once I realized that being without him didn't kill me and wouldn't kill me, I remembered that I needed to take care of myself, physically, mentally and spiritually. One thing he said to me during our last few weeks really struck a chord after he left, "What the hell happened to you? You used to be all about the hustle and hustling hard, and confident and strong. Where is that person?" And he was right. How could I let who I was go away like that and fade inside myself? So, I thought of new goals. Get back to the hustle, get back to loving myself, and do a f*cking show already. Stop talking about it and actually DO it. It was what I wanted for so long before him, and I wanted it more than ever after because it meant that I was real again. That's my long term goal. To be real and love myself again, because I deserve it.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 30 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
11%

So, after doing the mentality self-evaluation, I realized that I needed more work and to put in more effort and focus on this training if I really wanted to be ready in time for my show. So, I backed out fo the show. What I used to see as a failure on my part has actually given way for me...
