Goal (Long):
Drop to 140 pack get leaner and tighter so I can do my first competition. Its hard work and dedication Ive come this far so why stop now. Im scared and uneasy because I dont know if I can do this but if I dont try I will regret it. Its been a dream of mine to have a lean tight toned body. I want to be like the ladies in Oxygen Magazie and the other fitness magazines not the Cosmopolitan women!!
My legs were so flabby its taking me longer than I thought to get muscle on them. I get frustrated but I dont want to stop. Its going on a year and I am really starting to get into it. So lets see how I will look in another 8 months.
Weight Goal:
I want to LOSE 10 lb
Bodyfat Goal:
12%
Upcoming Contest:
NPC Greater Gulf States Bodybuilding USA Wheelchair and Figure Championship
Another friendly memeber on BB. I saw her profile and asked for some advice and she responded to me with detail. I really appreciate the fact that people like her actually take time to help others get where they are . She is also beautiful! A mother of 4 how can she not inspire you!
Smart and beatiful. I love her atheltic body and it proves you can have an athletic body and smokin hot. If had the choice to have the body of supermodel (thin and frail) or a toned and athletic body give me the toned and athletic body. I apprecite the hardwork she does and it makes me want to work hard also!

Wow its been a while since I wrote a post !! Well now is a great time to write since the holidays are upon us. Working at a school can be tough espcially when you are working towards a fitness goal and your coworkers dont understand why you are saying no to cup cakes cookies pizza...
Thank you for your wonderful reply. I would appreciate and regard it as an honor if you would consider putting me on your “members that inspire list.” I am trying to work my way up the most inspirational ladder so that other amputees and people with handicaps can feel motivated and inspired to work out. So many handicapped people feel as though they can’t get into shape and I want them to know that they can.
I stopped by to say that you look absolutely amazing! You have the body that so many want but are not willing to put the effort into developing. You should be complimented on your dedication, determination as well as achievements. You are a fantastic inspiration to others. Stay strong, focused and determined & may God bless.
OMG don't speak of bums! My bum disappeared months ago. Um aren't preggos supposed to have huge bums? My friend says from the back I don't look pregnant. No hips no bum. I think it was training my glutes and legs so hard then going to a halt. Thanks so much for the pic luv. The shoot was so much fun & I am getting so much positive feedback. The photog is getting offers for some of the shots for stock images. Way cool!
Aww quit. Wait gawdang girl your arms look AMAZING!!!!!!!!! Yep look for me Just Minxy or maybe it is Minxy Mystique (they let me not use my real name because I have fans & fanatics lol)
