I discovered my love of lifting weights as a senior in highschool. I loved that the "skinny fat" cheerleaders couldn't keep up with me. After 4 pregnancies, and layers of body fat crept up on me...here I am! Back to prove I can still do this!
Why I Love It:
I have always enjoyed being strong. Over the years I have slacked off, but I am here to get back on the horse and kick ass!! I love feeling the sense of one step closer... every workout, feels a little closer to my goals..
How I Stay Motivated:
I am seeing progress, this is a very powerful motivator for me. I like to look in the mirror now! Mirrors aren't the enemy any more, neither are cameras!
BB Accomplishments:
Looking good for myself and being a fit and healthy role model for my daughters...

I am sooooo excited to look in the mirror lately! I love the changes that are coming fast... I also love the way my husband is complimenting me! Nice fringe benefit there!
So, I have been eating clean most with all my might. My husband is enjoying the menu, although he admits to...
Woo hoo!!! I was zipping through my friends b/c I'm sitting here on my butt and I see you got your brace off. How exciting. Pretty soon you'll be lifting again. I bet you can't wait.
Hey Amy! How are you? How's your back? I just saw on someone's page that Mike is going to compete in 5 months. I posted on his page and asked him when and where. I'd love to go help cheer him on. I've never been to a comp and I told Lisa I want to see one. Fun stuff!!!
I hope you're right. I'm SO sick of eating and I know I don't get to stop...ever. :) That must be so very frustrating not being able to lift. But you still look super..not like you sat around gained weight. I bet you'll get those muscles back faster and bigger than you think.
Yup! I'm looking for great results with Lisa's help. You're right, she rocks!! You have great legs by the way. Now if only I could get mine to look like that! Cute avi.
Patience indeed, back/spine injuries tend to be easily re-injured! Frustrating as it may seem, give this time to heal, it's worth it. Also, be very ready to hit the abs and stretch regularly from now on. Keeping my core strong and flexible (as well as losing weight and being picky about shoes) has helped me tremendously!
Best!

Oh my goodness, I am sorry to hear that. I hope that you have a speedy recovery! I have hurt my back a time or two trying to lift and transfer patients, but nothing terribly serious. Thank you!!
