I started teaching aerobics for the free gym membership (I was a cardio junkie). The pink dumbbells were my friends!! Then I got serious in 2007. I started lifting consistently and overhauled my eating habits!! That made all the difference in the world!! You really are what you eat!
Why I Love It:
I love the feeling of my body changing and adapting. I love feeling strong and capable. I love the looks I get from my husband. I love my teenage sons bragging about me...I just love it!!
How I Stay Motivated:
My husband (Diver_Dave) is my biggest motivator and supporter. He believes in me and pushes me to go beyond that plateau.
BB Accomplishments:
Losing 25 pounds of UGLY fat!! Oh, and finally doing real no-sh!t pull-ups!!
Xercisegrl updated Fit Status "SERIOUS nutrition log!! Not competing but a friend is so I'm "sympathy" dieting for support!! (Plus I could stand to lose a few LOL!!) " - 10:47 pm - Comment

With my recent health issues, I've had to change the way I workout. I attribute much of my being able to maintain current fitness levels to yoga. So I am now actively pursuing becoming an RYT (registered yoga teacher).I still lift(and always will!!) and will continue my "bodybuilder" training...just with a new emphasis! I still hope to one day compete and will continue to eat and train like an athlete. To all of you with health issues, PLEASE don't give up!!
So I was out-of-town last week, not checking my page, and when I returned, I had a new profile pic of some girl's butt posted as mine!! AND I was banned for it!! I don't know what happened but luckily I was able to get unbanned and FINALLY change the pic back to me. It was pretty frustrating,...
