When I Started:
Jul, 2008
How I Started:
First off, I want to say, I am not looking for a hook up, or for any deep conversation. I am happily married and only on here to share success and encourage others while monitoring my own progress.
I was actually in high school and took a weight training class for PE. From there, I loved lifting weights and doing aerobics.
Why I Love It:
I love lifting because you really can see results in just a couple of workouts. It is encouraging and it keeps me motivated. My husband is my biggest inspiration.
How I Stay Motivated:
My husband, church, Christ, my family...taking photos of my body and surrounding myself with magazines and stories about others who are pushing themselves and achieving goals we sometimes believe are unattainable.
BB Accomplishments:
Being that I have Celiac disease, Endometriosis, and Fibromyalgia, it is hard to have the strength or energy to push myself at times. It is very frustrating and often embarrassing when I am unable to do something today that I was able to do yesterday. I am just grateful that I have come this far and I will continue to push through each day with God's help and the motivation of my loved ones.
I have not been in any competitions yet, but I have made it my goal to enter my first amateur figure competition November 2009!

Goal (Long):
I was in pretty great shape 10 years ago, and then I got married and had my children and kind of forgot about exercise. After I had my third child, I was 116 lb., my lowest way even before my kids. I always wanted to get back into weight lifting, and so I hired a personal trainer in 2006 to help me work through my fibromyalgia. I looked pretty good, but I did not feel good so I gave up on exercise again for awhile. I moved up to Oregon over a year ago and began to eat and sit around a lot because all it does is rain. I am finally fed up with feeling bloated and flabby and I have made up my mind to follow through on my dream of competing. I hope to be in my first competition by next Sept. 2009.
Thanks for being a friend here Stephanie. Love the avi you are looking fantastic. keep up the great work.
