For five years,I was a cheerleader for the NFL Kansas City Chiefs. One of the girls I cheered with (Lovena Tuley) was a fitness competitor and I thought she looked AMAZING!! Everyone in the crowd always went nuts over her abs!! So...I took my 5'7", 112lb. self to the weight room, got started and the rest is history!!
Why I Love It:
I love living my life this way not only for the personal benefits, but it's awesome to have the opportunity to actually make a positive difference in other peoples lives. If I can inspire just one person to change their life for the better by getting healthy then it is all worth it!!
How I Stay Motivated:
This sport does not come easy to me. My body likes to be VERY thin...so packing on the muscle has been a struggle! I have spent my life overcomming adversity and NEVER giving up on my dreams!! I have fallen in love with this sport and all the wonderful people who I have met along the way. I feel so blessed to have made it this far and am not about to stop now!!!

What tips would you give to others to help them stay motivated over the long-term?
Have FUN with this!! If your training isn't enjoyable, you won't stick with it!
Also, if your goal for each show is to have FUN and come in BETTER than the last time you were on stage, you will enjoy the sport SO much more than if you go on stage to beat someone else!

What are your secrets for making healthy food taste great?
I believe in a GREAT cheat meal once a week and don't worry about the rest! Just eat the diet food...it's for a purpose, NOT to taste good! Save the tasty stuff for the cheat meal!
