Overall Goal: BANG...that's the sound of my scale hitting the bottom of the garbage can. NEW GOAL, to get leaner, more flexible, stronger and maybe put on a pair of 32 jeans!
Fit Status:
Ouch! There is not much of me that doesn't hurt! The plan is now to make the remainder of me hurt, LET'S GIT IT :)
When I met my now best friend Greg. He was dedicated to fitness and bodybuilding and he inspired me to take a long look at myself and I didn't like what I saw.
Why I Love It:
I love the stress relief of the pump. I love the friendly faces I see at my gym and the great people you meet.
How I Stay Motivated:
I have always been heavy even as a child. I got in the best shape of my life shortly after high school and let it all slip away when I transfered away from home for college. So once I started to get back into shape, I remembered how much I loved the feeling. I kinda motivated by addiction. Is that crazy? Wierd?
BB Accomplishments:
Loosing 65 Lbs and being asked by two trainers and competitors at my gym to participate in a local show sponsered by my gym, Body Exchange Fitness.

This is from 2005 when my good friends wedding in Vegas. It's hard to remember looking that way, but it was the truth. I'm not sure how much I weighed, but it was greater than 270.
I can see the crap I've eaten has gone right to my waist. That's no good! Wave goodbye to it!
BANG...that's the sound of my scale hitting the bottom of the garbage can. NEW GOAL, to get leaner, more flexible, stronger and maybe put on a pair of 32 jeans!
Goal (Long):
I would like to tighten up, slim down and reduce my body fat from it's current 23% down to around 10% and participate in a local show on June 20, 2009. I don't have intentions of being a consistent competitor, but I would like to participate in this one show. I would like to walk on stage and showcase my hard work and take pride in what I've accomplished thus far and what I have planned for the near future.
Who wouldn't be inspired my Marion? She puts in work like no other I know. Early morning workouts, 2 a days, teaches martial arts and the importance of physical fitness to the next generation, what more do I have to say? And when it comes to P90X, to hell with keeping up with Tony Horton, I wanna keep up with Marion! Airborne plyo pushups, 1 arm pushups and pullups for days! She is superwoman.
BMI has traveled the road I'm on. He has shown me that no matter how long it takes or how much work it takes, I can get there. We started with similar weights and bf so I am trying to follow his lead. The meaning of inspiration to me is giving you the optimism to look towards tomorrow and the will to do what it takes to get there. Thanks B
I went back home to St Louis, Mo last week for some much needed R&R. I took my resistance bands and had half-ass intentions to get something done, but honestly I didn't want to! I wanted to be a lazy slob, drink, eat and be unhealthily happy....and I did. I had french fries a couple of...
thank you so much! i LOVE crossfit. I know some have their opinions about it, but for me, it's really worked well. i get my workouts off the main CF site, or local affiliates. do you CF?
Thank you so much for your encouragement Omar! It means soooo much to me... You were so right when you said that failure is quitting while trying. We probably wouldn't have electricity if Edison stopped trying...I'm NOT giving up...I can't..I'm going after my goals with all that I have, and I won't stop until I achieve them. Thanks again babe...let's go get it!!!!!!!!!
