I've always been an active person. I started working out in high school, but did get hardcore until college. I was doing pretty good my first two years of college. But my last year of school had to be the most depressing time of my life because I was a size 16. Boy was I miserable!! I made a pact with myself to never look like that again. And as soon as I came home from college I hit the track every morning to burn that body fat until I felt comfortable enough to walk into the gym again.

I just love the feeling I get when I finish a great workout. It's also entertaining watching some of the folks in your gym. But working out is part of my life and I can't imagine living without it. I always make time for the gym

I just keep thinking of how I looked when I was over weight.

Now I'm a size 4, trying to prepare for my first competition August 25, 2007
