When I Started:
Jul, 2004
How I Started:
I was tired of being skinny! In 2004 I was 5' 11" and weighed 117 lbs, so I decided to do something about it. I ate everything in site but couldn't gain any weight. Long story short, I found out I had Celiac disease. Once I got that under control, I was able to get my weight under better control too. Now, almost 4 years and 50 lbs. heavier, I look and feel a lot better. It's a constant struggle to keep the weight gain muscle and not fat, but well worth it!
Why I Love It:
Watching my body change as the hard work pays off
How I Stay Motivated:
I simply look at old pictures of myself - they remind me of what I do NOT ever want to look like again
BB Accomplishments:
When I finally hit 150 lbs. Doesn't sound like a big deal, but since I'm 5' 11" and started at 117 lbs., it was a very big deal at the time
Believe it or not, this is not me at my skinniest - this was a year after getting my diet under control and gaining 25 lbs
This was taken this past summer in Newport, RI. I was just trying to maintain my weight at that point - I was in the middle of my Invisalign treatment, making it tough to eat as often as I should.
