Background
When I Started: Apr 2007
HOW I STARTED:
I was in my early 20's, overweight and sick of looking/feeling like crap. Didn't like what I had become and vowed to do whatever it takes to turn things around. I started working out, doing mainly cardio about 2-3 days a week sometime in 2005, but it wasn't until April 2007 where I got serious and started going to the gym 4-5 days a week. That's also when I slowly started to incorporate weights into my workouts, hit my goal weight of 130 lbs in August 2007, and by February 2008 I was completely hooked on training, lifting 4-5 days a week. In June 2008 I also started pole dancing for fitness. It's fun, sexy & definitely not as easy as some may think. In October 2009 I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, I had 2 surgeries followed by radiation in February 2010. In April 2010 I was deemed completely cancer free. I will continue training and living life to the fullest. You only have one body & one life, I want to be the best that I can be & enjoy every minute of everyday.
WHY I LOVE IT:
With every rep I feel like I am bettering myself. Also, it's a great way to vent! Anytime I'm having a crappy day, I hit the gym hard, walk out of there feeling much better, works every time!

The Post-Keto & Post-Holiday Update!
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 9:53pmAhhh, it's been quite some time since I blogged on here... time for an update! So the Holidays are finally over! I make it sound like they're a bad thing, well they're not totally bad, but not totally good either. The "Holiday Get Together's" can really sabotage your diet as they are usually accompanied by a lot of food and alcohol. And yes I confess, I did indulge a little, I gained some fat back but I'm really not too concerned. My workouts have been regular, the only "scheduled" workouts that suffered were my 2 times a week pole dancing classes because they were pretty m...
Final thoughts after completing 10 Weeks on the Keto Diet.
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 9:53pmThis was definitely not an easy diet. The first week was absolutely brutal, my energy levels were non existent and training, for once, felt like a chore, which is not usually the case because I love it. Second week was a lot better and the third, and thereafter, was just routine. The first few weeks you really tend to count the days until your next carb-up but after 4-5 weeks it's more like "oh shit it's already carb-up day?" It really becomes routine and your energy levels are pretty normal so training also becomes easier. All this mumbo-jumbo aside, the results really speak for the...
Before my carb-up in Week 9
Posted in Training : Dec 28, 2010 9:53pmHoly smokes it's Week 9! Honestly at this point Keto is just part of my routine, I woke up this morning, ate my lardtastic breakfast and it wasn't until later that I realized I get to have my precious carbs later on today! Anyway, things have been going pretty good. Everything is on track, I feel great and I'm still making progress so no complains there. Except for... haha, time for a confession! So last weekend was my 25th birthday weekend, needless to say, my carb-up was a COMPLETE disaster!!! The week went by as planed, no slip-ups, great workouts, I even went in on Friday to do my final de...

Wow, first comp! That's awesome! You'll do great. I had a rough patch last week, but I'm back now. Been cutting since the beginning of the year. Slow but surely, and I've never worked as hard before. Hoping that I've got it figured out finally & will hit goal this spring.

Hi, stopped by to say Hi. I have not checked in on you in a while. Still doing the pole? How is the bulking going. Whatever you are doing it looks like you are having fun "pole dancing." LOL

Good luck on the bulking! Are you hitting the weights hard then? I'm in the slim down process again. Going through the tough week of eating right & cutting back on carbs. Feeling the withdrawls so to speak.. never fun. Sure hoping this is what I need.

Looks like your back in the full swing of things again. Way to go! You are still pretty lean. I've been out for a bit myself, so my plan is to follow. Are you still higher carbs in the AM and little to none in the PM?
