I started back in march 2009 starving myself to lose weight for my 20 year high school reunion. Well I lost about 10 lbs but was flabby and dimply. Had a photo shoot shortly after and hated what I saw in the bikini shots. So I am eating again and eating clean! Lot's of protien, no white starches, no drinking alcohal every night any more and I have cut artificial sweetners. I am hitting the gym 5-7 days a week for over 5 month now with some breaks. That is the longest span ever for me! My husband and I just decided that we are almost 40 and if we are gonna do it now is the best time! So we are both our biggest motivators. My modeling and getting a better outcome of my photo shoots is my biggest motivation. I have learned starving your body only works if you are 18 and don't have all the fat stored on your body already and if you don't want to look good in a bikini.
I want to go to Las Vegas for my 40th birthday and go to ReHab at the Hard Rock Hotel and prance around the pool parties like I belong. Have not really thought about competeing due to I have stage fright!!!! Now fitness modeling for print ads I can do!!!
Why I Love It:
How it can make your body look and your mind feel about your body!
The actual act of body building HATE IT!
How I Stay Motivated:
My wonderful husband and my modeling.
BB Accomplishments:
I weigh 14lbs less now than when I got pregnant with my son. the last time I was this small and wore size 3/4 jeans I was in high school 20 yrs ago!
I always wanted to model when I was younger and in the early 90's I competed in a few swimsuit competitions but it wasn't long before the competitions went from a swimsuit competition to a X Rated competiton, so since I wasn't willing to do the things the other competitors were doing I quickly stopped competing in those. Then of course friends and family who constantly put doubt in your head when you open up about your dreams and goals. I gave up on my dreams for nearly 20 years untill I remarried in 2006 and my husband who constantly tells me I'm beautiful and always told me I should be in front of the camera professionally convinced me I could do it. Now my goals are to go after what I gave up on so many years ago. Goal number 1. Earn a paid modeiling job in 2009!!
I saw a picture of her in a fitness magazine and cut it out and taped it to my bathroom door. when I take my progress pics and look at my body in the mirror I constantly have her picture taped to the back of my door to remind me what I'm striving for. She is so hot and I just love her body!!!
Now why don't any of the nurses I see at the doctors office look like you?!?! ;)
Awesome physique - your goals will be easy to nail! Keep on hitting it hard!
