When I Started:
Sep, 2004
How I Started:
Growing up I was always involved in sports. I looked at a picture of myself after I had gained some weight, and decided that I needed to change my lifestyle. I was a 5811 in the United States Marine Corps! OOOoooorah! My goal was to be healthy and active and eventually compete in a figure competition.
Why I Love It:
I love being in the gym. I love the challenge of improving my physique for each contest that I am in. That is what matters, coming in at my personal best each time, because that is what I can control!
How I Stay Motivated:
I remember that there are people out there that have much larger obstacles. I am so blessed to be whole and healthy. Making sure that I give everything I have in the gym, that when I leave, I have nothing left to give.

What supplements do you take immediately after your workout? Why?
A whey protein shake with Udo's oil, glucose tabs and vitamin C
- Updated Mar 30, 2009 6:56am

What celebrity body would you most like to have? Why?
I guess I would have to say Kate Beckisale, or Jennifer Garner. I think that they are both strong, fit, feminine women.
- Updated Feb 21, 2009 7:49am

Which pro bodybuilder/fitness/figure competitor has the ideal physique? Why?
I really like Jelena Abbou's physique, it is curvy, womanly, strong, fit, and just beautiful.

Hey Tara. I want to do a figure comp. within the next 2 years and I was just looking for some help. Did you pick one here in the TC first? What did you do right off the bat to get ready for it? How long does it take to prep for a contest? Thanks a ton! You look fabulous! :)
