When I Started:
Sep, 1987
How I Started:
I am so blessed to have come from a physically active family. I can thank my mother's influence; She was a filipino gym kitty (36-22-36 on a 5'3" frame) and my dad for my athleticism; he was a US Marine and influenced me into running for fun and sports for the competitive spirit! I was active in everything; gymnastics til I was 11, track, archery, tennis, volleyball, softball and finally weightlifting when I started highschool. My PE class was mostly guys and alot football players with the head football coach as the teacher. So I learned all the traditional strenth training moves from age 14......... After highschool, I joined the US Navy and came out of basic training with a a bangkn' 6-pack & physique worthy of an NPC Figure stage spotlight! That's how my fascination for bodybuilding started........ Unfortunately , there was a brief period of time after the military whete life was a foggy mess. I abandoned my fit lifestyle to appease the demands of narrow-minded, mediocre, anti- vanity subculture of small town America; Those who saw exercise as an activity for the vain & narcissistic or anythng attractive as threatening, those who dislike any physical exertion or giving up unhealthy food as not-an- option. In an atmosphere of haters, I caved in and gave up that which I cherished most; my health & happiness. And I eventually payed the price !
Why I Love It:
Who doesn't love to see a sexy, strong, fit body, whether it be in z bikini at the beach, on TV, in magazines or in the mirror. But what's even better are the health benefits that come from an active lifestyle that includes proper nutrition & strength training and the camaderie between those who practice and/or preach the gospel of good health................................ Oh did I mention working out builds strong bones & muscles, increases your libido and sense of wellbeing? ................................................................ Oh, and I can't forget....the others who inspire me to stay inshape. Without my fellow gym rats and gym bunnies to motivate me, I don't know what I'd do with myself. And now there's BODYSPACE ! ! !
How I Stay Motivated:
I have a few health issues that have a huge impact on how I regard my health. I suffer from migraine headaches, dizzy spells, sleep disorders, seizure disorders, hypoglycemia, anemia, and low blood pressure. If I didn't take care of myself, those issues would be exasperated, and I probably wouldn't be able to get out of bed. For years, I let doctors dictate my health and all they would do is hand me a prescription of pills and ask me to return in 8 weeks............................................... I admit it; I was a dumb girl in my 20s. From 1998 to 2004, I fell into a moderate depression, found myself addicted to cocaine, lost my business to 9/11 then my grandpa 3 months later, endured my first domestic altercation that left me with a broken ankle and nose (and heart) and eventually I attempted suicide after mixing alcohol with those prescription medications. Summer of 2006, It took a long look in the mirror and encountered my feminine epiphany... I finally came to the realization that I owed it to myself to make my own happiness.............. .................... I stay motivated because I owe it to myself, my family, my friends, my god to respect my life and my health. They say you can't make everyone happy, but you could just make yourself happy... ain't nuttin wrong a lil' bit of selfishness :-)...............

My Iowa Porker days April 8, 2010 Update
See the fake smile. This was during my "dark years". I was well over 150 lbs. I was hooked on cocaine & prescription drugs, drank alot, give into the criticism of those who adhere to mediocrity, and was in a complete depression. I had given up on fitness because I didn't want to be seen as vain or ...
Normally no matter how hard I diet after a hiatus, I don't see any weight loss for a month, so I took it easy on the gym, assumed my 75/25 approach and I still lost 3 lbs, an inch off my hips and waistline.

I am sooo excited. I guess good things come to those who wait. I have been in correspondence with different directors of BSN since 2008. And it seems each time one wants to hire me, they end up burning their bridge with BSN and I get lost in the paperwork.

I'm doing better! I've been getting at least my 1 hour of cardio in but making time for that other hour is tough! I've been doing good on the diet-except for last night...I had steak and asparagus with cheese grits, and a few white russians and shots (can't believe I made it to work this morning)...how much extra work out time is that gonna cost me?

I don't know if you've ever heard of Nu Skin, but in your quest to keeping yourself looking great you may really like the products. Check out the Galvanic Spa at aaronr.nsedreams.com These products shouldn't be a secret to the select few who actually care about their health and appearance. Keep up the great work. :) nsoverview.com
