I think that having a breakdown in life can definitely motivate someone to make a change for the better. Ive always been a tomboy active in sports when I was in my teen. When I was pregnant with my 8 year old son, I balloned from 160 to 200lbs. After giving birth, I kept the weight for about a year and I was going thru a divorce at the time and I was unhealthy and depressed. I met a wonderful guy after my divorce who was a bodybuilder and he was super supportive and basically motivated me to lose the weight. I went from 185 to 155 within a year just working out and learning to eat right. But so much had happened withing that time and fast forward to 4 years later, I had moved to another state with my son and started eating bad and just not working out and had a not so successful relationship. Last month I decided to do it right thiws time and work on my physical image. I wanted to look good and feel good and so here I am. I have a goal to work toward and Im thankful to have found this website to help motivate me to reach my goals. I started my workout 2 weeks ago and Im excited to see the final results
Why I Love It:
I think that working out itself is a meditation. It makes me feel good inside and look good on the outside. I love the adrenaline I get just breaking a sweat and of course, I want to look like the fitness models:-).
How I Stay Motivated:
I stay motivate just by looking at fitness magazines and how great the models look. And just for myself, I want to make a huge change. I want this year to be a good year for me, and enjoy the summer and I know how great of an impact it does to your self esteem.
BB Accomplishments:
Nothing yet. Im hoping to compete this year.

My goal is to be at 145 by the end of April '08. I been working out for 2 weeks now going to my third. I hired a trainer and I been eating right for the first time. I want to not only lose the weight, but to gain muscles and look lean and healthy and not skinny.

Ok, so I have to confess something...I HATE CARDIO MACHINES!! They bore me to death! I been trying real hard to stay on the treadmill, elliptical, crosstrainer, recumbant bike, you name it for at least 30 minutes but its so damn hard! I could last 30 and then Im off doing box jumps and jump...
