When I Started:
2005
How I Started:
About five years ago, I joined WW and began a weight loss journey in which I ultimately lost 110 lb. When I began I was a staunch couch potato and determined not to exercise. About midway through I joined Curves for Women which became my first real foray into exercise. I loved the machines and ultimately segued to the university gym where I work and hired a personal trainer to teach me the ropes. I fell in love with weight training at first lift!
Why I Love It:
I love the changes it brings about in my body. I love the feeling of firm muscle, the health of my body and its strength. LOL! I love shopping and wearing stylish clothing :)
How I Stay Motivated:
I am always working toward a goal.

This is me at the beginning of my new program. Shows the damage done by post-competition eating.
What supplements do you take immediately before your workout? Why?
I don't take any supplements before my workout but I do make sure that I eat a good meal with plenty of quality protein and drink plenty of water 60-min before I head for the gym.

glutamine and arginine for recovery but the most important thing I do is make sure that I eat a solid meal with plenty of protein and good carbs within 60-min of my workout.

well good for you !! If you need any tips - in terms of what to bring etc let me know - I can only go by what I forgot to bring and the things that happened to me - that I will change for the next show
Thank you for the kind words. Logically we know many go through lifes hardships, but we always seem to feel alone in our own process. Thanks for reminding that I'm not!
