When I Started:
Jan, 2008
How I Started:
I've always been interested in bodybuilding but just never seemed to take the time to try it. I was a teacher for many years and spent most of my free time watching or coaching all the sports my kids were involved in. Now my kids are grown and I'm not working, so I'm getting to spend time doing something I've always wanted to do. I also had just turned 45 and was not really happy with getting older and the body that came with it! I had worked out with weights and aerobics many times over the years but never really stuck with a program or took the time to learn the science behind it!
I'd been reading fitness mags and tearing out all sorts of exercises to get in shape! lol Yep, they made it into a file folder! Then I saw an ad for bb.com in one and looked it up. At first, I just joined and looked at all the transformations people had made ... most of which were very awesome and intimidating at the same time! It took me awhile to actually post a progress picture and begin participating. Thanks to bb.com, I've discovered a family of supportive and motivating friends!! I still have a long way to go, but I've learned so much from this site and all the wonderful friends I've made here! It's really a life changing experience that many people don't understand. I love you guys and appreciate all your continued help and support!!
Why I Love It:
I'm not sure if I love it yet...it's a love/hate relationship! I love the results but hate the work! LOL
How I Stay Motivated:
By the awesome support group I have on here :)
BB Accomplishments:
Finally seeing a calf muscle!! Thanks to 6pack99's killer calf workout!!!

to be healthy and fit, gain more muscle and get the diet back on track!
Goal (Long):
I'd like to have a 2 pack with a nice line down the middle and some obliques... with the rest of the stomach firm and toned but feminine and soft at the same time ... haha... not too much! Course I would take a 6 pack! lol
He's a sweetheart/prettyboy/gansta who's always up for a challenge! He keeps me guessing and makes working out more fun with his crazy Canadian/Italian antics!
/>Since my grand daughters were born on Jan 1st, working out has been a major challenge! Takes me back in time to when my kids were little ... I think that's when I gave up on working out before. My own fault .. I'm kind of an all or nothing type of person. So, I've decided I'm going to...
I'm trainer for an amateur model hot body search that I'm shooting the photos for a week from Saturday. Then I am throwing myself 150% percent into my cooking show/videos. I have the first 3 storyboarded.
