I used to be a skinny and shy kid. One day I came across a picture of a bodybuilder and decided that's how I wanted to look
Why I Love It:
It helped me keep me young and in good health and gave me more self confidence. I met my best friend through a BB forum.
How I Stay Motivated:
I get in touch with BBers from the whole world to exchange ideas about diet, training, I read magazines and read BB forums. Watching how other people succeed in changing their physique makes me want to do the same and shows me you can do it if you really want it.
BB Accomplishments:
Competing against myself to get the best physique I can get.
Fight age and be fitter now than I was before.
Forum Signature:
Life starts at 50.
What you really want, you get.
The more I know, The better I grow.

What tips would you give to others to help them stay motivated over the long-term?
read a lot and share your knowledge and experience with other people.
I stopped by to say that you look absolutely amazing! I want to compliment you on your dedication, determination and achievement. You are a fantastic example of what can be done when someone decides to get it done and a great inspiration to so many others. Stay strong, focused and determined.
Gday - vacation...lucky you. Seems like ages since mine.
