When I Started:
Oct, 2007
How I Started:
I have always loved working out in the weight room... I began to discover my passion for it while I was on the track team in high school. I never really persued it however, until this past year. I began reading about figure and fitness competitors in 2006, did a lot of research and decided that this was something I wanted to persue.
Why I Love It:
I love it because I can feel my body and health improving with each weight I lift. It's an awesome natural high!! My goal is to improve with each weight lifting session. I love lifting weights because you can never stop making goals for yourself and you're always being challenged.
How I Stay Motivated:
I stay motivated by thinking about how great I feel as soon as I step foot in the gym and how great I feel while I'm working out. Yeah, sometimes it's tough, but I love working through it knowing that I am accomplishing something.

envy2428changed Weight from 161.8 lbs. to 161 lbs., a 0.8 lb. loss in 6 days
What type of nutrition plan are you currently following? Give full details.
I have entirely eliminated sugar, bread, grains, and flour from my diet...with an occasional splurge here and there:) I eat only....vegetables, protein, Greek yogurt, berries, nuts, and LOTS of CHEESE!!! I only drink water and tea and Protein shakes made from the Greek Yogurt. I have eliminated the previous after doing plenty of research as to how bad these foods/ingredients can be for an individual. I feel great after a year of doing this. My stomach is flatter, not as much bloating from the crappy food, fat loss is quicker, and I have more energy in the gym too!!I have entirely eliminated sugar, bread, grains, and flour from my diet...with an occasional splurge here and there:) I eat only....vegetables, protein, Greek yogurt, berries, nuts, and LOTS of CHEES...more
Why I like this video: This is a good example of what it takes to be a successful figure competitor. I learned some tips on what I need to do in order to be successful in my lifting goals as well. BTW...she wins!!!
Okay, so back in January I wrote something about wanting to possibly enter a transformation contest....Well after a few months of working on it, it kind of slipped away in March. I lost 18 lbs and danced a lot in those 3 months. Then all of a sudden, I forgot about my goal. I became busy...
OMG...that is the sweetest thing that anyone has ever said to me on here! I appreciate that! That motivates me to keep doing the videos! Wait till you see the new video...LOL...I even show my back fat that I am getting. LOL I have to eat CLEAN after my surgery tomorrow...no more feeling sorry for myself. Thank you for the motivational message! I sincerely appreciate it! xoxo Tamar
