When I Started:
Sep, 2006
How I Started:
Fitness has always been a part of my daily life. For years, I worked out 12 to 20 hours a week, mainly cardio, long-distance running and aerobic classes. I enjoyed the endurance work and it made me feel good. I also enjoyed the fact that I talked myself into all the extra calories which I figured I deserved since I spent so many hours at the gym! So, I learned to accept the extra pounds.
I had no idea that what I was doing was actually FORCING my body fat to stay on! Then, I discovered...weights! (why was I SO scared of them?!!)The 1st thing I would have to do is 1000% change my diet.( I was only eating 2 large meals a day) After only ONE WEEK of perfect clean diet(6meals/day), I saw changes in my strenght. The next week, I quit my "girlie" aeorobic gym and joined a hardcore, more "manly" gym. This motivated me a lot.
Why I Love It:
It makes me feel strong, gives me energy, not to mention the fact that my clothes have never fit better!
How I Stay Motivated:
I have no choice...quitting is not an option. I visualize how I want to look, than give myself some "tough love" and stay focused! This site is a HUGE help.
BB Accomplishments:
transforming my body, lifting heavy!

10 years of 2 hours a day of cardio, 2 marathons a year, and still can't lose the fat!
Can't believe it, but it will be soon 2 years since I met(and fell in love with) ..weights!! My aniversary coming up, I thought I would do something special, so instead of signing up to do a comp, I booked a photo shoot and began the 'cutting' process 6 weeks ago. 4 more to go, and I'll submit...
Yeah, my daughter started school this week- second grade, so did my son- kindergarten. Talk about an emotional rollercoaster! Then on top of that I went back to school this week also! LOL! CRAZY!!!

From a diet/training standing it was weak. I had xtra time off from work & didn't use it to kick ass at the gym. I did, however, get some really needed chill time w/my man. We've been on opposite schedules for the past month take a toll. How was your week?
You WOULD have to be amazingly sweet ontop of inspirational. Thanks so much for that compliment! AHH.. I absolutely adore your image, there. It totally makes me WANT to do my cardio, at a time when that's pretty critical. You're such an inspiration, and I don't think ya even know how much of one ;) Best wishes, and keep me posted. Can't wait to see them pictures!!
