I used to love eating hamburgers and pizza (large pizzas) on a daily basis. My brother would walk around teasing me about how much my triceps would jiggle. Both he and my dad created a song about me sitting at the table and watching me eat (to the tune of I'm A Little Teapot). My brother started competing in the late 90s. It wasn't until my dad's health started taking a downward turn did I realize the value of one's body. My dad's disabilities (multiple sclerosis, congestive heart failure, and double leg amputee) helped shaped me and gave me the desire to better my body. He depended on me as well as my strength to get him around. Because of both my dad and brother, I joined the gym and now find the gym as a second home.
Why I Love It:
I love the lifestyle; I loving helping others achieve their personal best; I love wearing a size 0 and having to get my clothes altered.
How I Stay Motivated:
I strive to be better than I am the day before. I look forward to achieving my personal best. It also helps to have a great support team. My big brother, Peter, and the best trainer in the world, John Sherman, help keep me focused and on track.

Goal (Long):
To always be my best each day. Beauty should not be defined by society. It should be defined by self. Embrace your beauty from within and watch how it will be admired.
Which pro bodybuilder/fitness/figure competitor has the ideal physique? Why?
Forward speaking...I do!

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
Hmmh...the question should be which celebrity wants a body like mine...
100% natural (except for the hair...lol), nothing artificial, no airbrush, no draw ins.
Hey, Trish! Looking fabulous and shredded as always. I'm sure all is still on track for Atlanta. How's the financial world treating ya? Biting nails on my 401k investments.
