I've always enjoyed working out and being active, but never really thought about combining that with a healthy diet. Now that I know better, I want to stay on track and be in the best shape of my life!
Why I Love It:
Working out has always been fun because it's so challenging, and I love challenges. You can only do so much with other things in life, but with your own body, you can push yourself to reach your goals.
How I Stay Motivated:
I try to keep looking towards the bigger picture and that helps keep me motivated. And also knowing that I am working towards a healthier lifestyle by being physically active is a big motivator.
Ironman.
BB Accomplishments:
I have lost 17 lbs so far.

Don't think. Just eat. :P
This picture was taken a few months after I started working out, but not very serious about eating a healthy diet. I was at 115 lbs. and around 24% bf.
I didn't mind how I looked, but like I always say... there's always room for improvement!
(I actually weighed 118 in December, the most I've ever ...
Front relaxed. Down to 99 lbs and abs are starting to show through a bit more. Never thought I'd reach double digits again, but it's feeling good! Bring it!
I'm looking to lose some fat and tone up my muscles so that I look leaner and feel healthier. It'll also be nice to have more energy! ^^
Goal (Long):
I've always tried to live an active life style, but never really combined weight lifting with a healthy diet. I'm hoping that with some motivation, new activies, and a better understanding of my body will help me get in the best shape of my life.
My overall short term goal is to reach 18% body fat and weighin in at around 103 lbs. Almost there!
Box Squats (115 x 10 x 3)
Straight Legged Deadlifts (95 x 10 x 3)
Leg Extensions (110 x 10 x 3) superset Calf raises (210 x 10 x 3)
Cable Crunches (110 x 20 x 3) superset Obliques Weighted (35 x 10 x 3)

I'm not sure, I really want to make it to Fitness Universe in Vegas, if I can't be in it I want to attend it. I can't go if my husband isn't going. I'm hoping he doesn't travel for business on that date.
I have been freelancing but the majority has been photography.
My portfolio is fairly strong I think. I've had 3 or 4 people critique it.
:) Sounds like a fun job.
wow thanks! I really appreciate it :)
Yeah finals are coming up for me. I am actually done in December. Yay! But then I have to go job hunting and I'm not sure if I want to go after a graphic design job or be a photographer... :/
