I have always struggled with my weight. I gained and lost, gained and lost, but never made much progress. A friend turned me on to free weights, I learned about dieting, and everone kept telling me I had the shape and genetics to compete. I didn't beleive any of them! Anyhow, a few years passed, I met some more people and I went for it. Now, its something that I do, I still struggle with my weight, but its much better under control.
Why I Love It:
I don't know that I can really put that into words. It's definitely an internal feeling, a drive from within. It's time I have to focus on me and I enjoy it.
How I Stay Motivated:
Friends mainly. My boyfriend is wonderful, I don't know how I'd do it without him. He used to compete, he now promotes, and he is one of the smartest men I have ever met. He understands my moods when dieting and he says when I go on stage, he feels like he is on stage too. We are very fortunate to have each other.
BB Accomplishments:
This past June I placed 2nd, out of nine in the NPC Atlantic coast Crystal cup. In September I won the tall class of open figure at the Mountaineer, my favorite NPC show. I love Boone!
I have decided to do the Mountaineer, for several reasons, 1. I LOVE BOONE, 2. It's affordable for me, 3. It's keeps me in shape over the summer. I honestly feel like I could do this show every year! So, my plan this summer is to get tighter and not any more muscular. MAYBE I will do...
Oh I am doing Jacskonville Pro and hope to do the Europa supershow in Dallas in August. Then the NY and Atlantic City show in Sep. I will be going to the Olympia also. As a spectator but it sure would be nice to be on that stage. Yeah I will be just watching-but that was a nice daydream wouldn't ya say. LOL
