When I Started:
Dec, 2008
How I Started:
I started lifting back in my 20's. Stopped in my late 30's because I had a child (doctor's orders). Never went back to it because it was hard getting to the gym. Decided this year I would hit the weights once again.
Why I Love It:
Muscle is the most sought after feature both men and women strive for. It makes my body look smaller and I feel sexier when I have more muscle def.
How I Stay Motivated:
I thought I was motivated until I hit a major stress bump in the road. I allowed the stress to get the best of me. I turned to food as comfort and I stopped exercising. I know now that I must remain focused on ME, and problems will come and go. I need to learn to prioritize and put me first.
BB Accomplishments:
Work in progress.

Do you tell your friends and/or family about your fitness goals?
Yes
Why or why not?
It makes me stay focused on my progress. I also like getting feedback from them (how do I look, do I look different, etc.)

What tips would you give to others to help them stay motivated over the long-term?
Well, I've been pretty bad with this in the past, but learning from my mistakes, I would have to say that you MUST put yourself first. If you have an understanding family, they will support you 100%. Also, don't let anyone live rent free inside of your head. That will cause you much stress you don't need - and could throw you off course. Keep the focus. Remember WHY you started this from the beginning!Well, I've been pretty bad with this in the past, but learning from my mistakes, I would have to say that you MUST put yourself first.
