I used to be a size 14, living on Vienna sausages, and spam.
I met a guy i started dating, he was in to Bodybuilding. Introduced me to fitness, and well, i was good at it. I married the guy..
I competed earning the NC Overall title in 1998, then moved on to Southern States, got runner up. Took time off to have my third child.. Got back in on the JR USA, and Jr National level, placing 3rd and 5th. Went to Nationals, took 6th with a blown disc in my back. I stopped competing for 2 years. I went back to Nationals in 2005, got my pro card in tall class Fitness.

I love it as it is something you can control on your own. You have to have will power.
Although I focus mostly on business now, and running a succesful Supplement Company. I still try to make fitness a part of my life.
