When I Started:
May, 2009
How I Started:
I've never "exercised" growing up, it's a cultural thing, we'd stayed active by working in the rice field and a diet of mainly white rice isn't much help to the love handles either. Moving to the United States in December 1996, I've adopted the convenient ways of eating and gained 15lbs since high school. I am finding it harder and harder to keep myself from putting on more fat ... I was introduced to running about a year ago and fell in love with it, the feeling I get when I am running is simply exhilarating! Interestingly, I've gained a few more pounds after a year of running 20+miles/week ... It's entirely my fault really, I use running as an excuse to eat any crap I want. An associate at 24hr fitness sees me days in and days out on the treadmill and approached me back in April with the idea that I should start lifting weights if I want to see changes in my body and I decided to give this a try ...

thanks hun! I think u have an incredable bod!! I think the thing that has changed me the most is a consistant clean diet. I used to eat whatever i wanted than go on a diet for like a week than binge. So i think eating clean is 80% results for me. Back excersises that i love are the row machines, Lat pull downs, one arm dumbell rows. Those have worked well for me to tone. And assisted pull ups! Those work arms and back and shoulders! love them!
