I really never thought of my body as attractive. I always thought I was sort of awkwardsly proportioned, never considered fitness. My entire life I have had the mentality that I could never be athletic, apparently the gene missed me in my family. I have always been terrified to try anything athletic but earlier this year, in March i picked up weights for the first time in my life and I was much stronger than I expected myself to be. Ive steadily increased my strength since then and it feels like I've finally found something I'm somewhat good at. I hired a trainer and he helped me get in the best shape of my life and i entered my first fitness competition in May and place 2nd! It was a great accomplishment for me considering all the skills I had to learn from scratch. Now I consider myself very athletic and capable and am not afraid to try new things! Weightlifting has become one of my favorite past times and I love being strong and fit!
Why I Love It:
It's such a great stress reliever. Plus, it's the only thing in my life where I can control the pain in a positive way & create visible results.
Now I am working out almost everyday & feeling healthier & better about myself!
How I Stay Motivated:
I look @ other fitness models & visualize what I would like to look like. Also, When I am alone & at home I try to wear as little clothes as poissible so everytime I look in the mirror I can see how I look & that keeps me motivated to get how I want to look. I want to be able to walk around the house in a bra & a thong & not cringe when I look in the mirror! I really try to surround myself with fitness oriented people and environments to make sure I don't get sucked into an unhealthy environment. Also helping others helps keep me motivated!!

Goal (Long):
I want to be on the cover of all my favorite magazines which are muscle & fitness, shape, fitness, IronMan, & OXYGEN! I want to be a role model for the young people to show tht you can battle peer pressure & be the best you. I am now a certified personal trainer so one of my new goals is to inspire and help people reach their fitness goals!
look at her! shes just gorgeous! Sometimes I think people get the misconception that this industry is only for manly women who want to be bodybuilders but I believe muscle is beautiful & to feminize people's image of the sport is one of my goals & Kimberly is doing a great job! She is also very nice & ground & yall know that is important!

Lol that's true. But I was fat once, for like 4 months. I dont know what happened but training it fell off in 2 months. I think my endocrine system had some glitch. WHen I tell people that they roll their eyes or don't believe me lol.Love ur ed hardy suit!
Congrats on getting picked in round one of the 2010 BodySpace Spokesmodel Contest. Didn't you compete in figure and fitness at the 2009 Fitness Texas Show? So did I, but I was in figure and bikini tall class. I just posted a new video and I am trying to get picked as well in round three of the contest, so drop me a vote if you get a chance and good luck to you on reaching the top 5.
I've been doing well. I'm cutting right now and doing a lot of HIIT training until January and then I will start bulking. Looking to shred fat and then add the muscle.
Lol ur right! Even in class the teachers will have to call him King. It's a name worthy of respect and the Maximilian reflects POWER because only powerful leaders had that name. He will have a name 2 live up 2. Well I luv all the pics! U look great! Ha-ha yeah my first show is in May, 2 months after I deliver. I realize now that being so slim isn't the curse I thought it was in pregnancy because Ill likely walk out close to my prepregnancy size and be able to shred rather quickly in the gym.
u should be show cased for the whole world to see u glow with true beauty not just on the outside but also the inside. U R a DIAMOND AMONGST GOLD COINS.
well that word just suites u. what can i say about someone who has been blessed with such beauty, and that smile of urs is just jaw dropping, just like the rest of U!!!
