When I Started:
Apr, 2007
How I Started:
Have worked out off and on for the past 20 years, but got serious about it back in April 2007. Plus, knowing my family genetics, I DID NOT want to get the pot-belly that all male members seem to develop. So now I eat right, work out 4 to 6 days a week, and just take overall better care of myself.
Why I Love It:
I just feel really good after each and every workout, and seeing how I look in the mirror is pretty cool, too. Definitely a good boost in self-esteem, although I've never really lacked that...lol
How I Stay Motivated:
I keep seeing all the transformations on bb.com, and it lets me know that I'm doing the right thing! Plus, looking in the mirror and seeing the changes in my overall shape and form is pretty sweet.
BB Accomplishments:
My biggest accomplishment is just cutting the fat and getting more definition.

I can't think of a better day to have your day on. You get the joy of the end of the work-week, and the joy of getting older...OK, that second one is debatable, but you get my point. So, I think I'm going to head home after work today, get in a good workout, then head out with some friends...
Hey! We have the same overall goal! Imagine that! I'm working hard to avoid the Christmas candy...that incidentally is sitting on my kitchen counter! So far, so good. Enjoy your holiday! Happy to be your friend!
haha i dont turn it down...my boss bought me chocolate n i regifted it! haha n then they give me cookies...rite in the garbage as soon as they leave! lol
Thank you so much, as always you look great! I am kind of bummed out because we have been traveling the past 3 weeks and my diet has suffered because of it, but not too terribly bad. Just enough to make me feel guilty and be very hard on myself! I realize 3 months isnt enough time to get the results I am seeing and that I need to learn to be much more patient. No one is perfect, even the most famous fitness/figure models go through phases with their diet sometimes, they have too! lol
I was just reading my comments to others. I meant to say.....I'll have to look good for my husbands REUNION........MY BAD.
He definitely discourages multiples ;-)

Good memory...I deleted that off my profile because they are canceling it because not enough people responded. I'll just have to look great for my husbands;-) Thank you for asking!! How are you doing?
lol I took several just like that with my camera phone and they all turned out great! I like them because they are so close up and really show off my progress. The one we use to take the actual progress pics is not the best camera
Again thank you and I have already had words with my trainer about eating another bite of asparagus we compromised on spinach and green beans instead LOL! I look very forward to my chipolte burrito or chicken enchildas EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT! HA
Thank you so much sweetheart I appreciate you checkin in on me! Just another hard week of killing myself at the gym and TRYING LIKE ALL HELL to stick to my diet by realizing ive got to see better results this saturday lol how about you are you having a good week so far?
Sadly for about 4 months it did include me. Working for Uncle Sam and with several hundred employees it was always someones birthday and cake always managed to end up on my desk lol!
Um I might have to say not many or not consistently since we were the 2nd fattest city in the US. I think we have since dropped down the list but I think we are still on the top 10 lol!
