I was never totally out of shape, but I was never super fit either. In college I really didnt pay attention to my weight gain until I started to shop for clothes that wouldn't make me look "fat". One day I realized my entire mentality was backwards. So I made up my mind to chnage my body to fit the clothes I wanted to wear. It became so much more than weight loss. My entire lifestyle completely changed, transforming my body and my overall health.
I started my fitness journey last April, and I havenât stopped to look back once. Through high school and college my lifestyle was really fast-paced juggling my school work with multiple waitressing and bartending jobs. Needless to say I wasnât very physically active or fit by any means. One day I woke up and realized that I wasnât happy with my lifestyle, and that I needed to do something that was just for me. I started visiting the gym and have since become a permanent resident. Losing weight and getting in shape just wasnât enough for me. I registered for my first fitness competition in October and placed 7th in the NPC New England Championships. Since then my passion for fitness has transformed my life. Itâs no longer just something I do, itâs who I am.
I plan to continue competing in the NPC with my sights set on an IFBB pro-card. I hope that my transformation can inspire others to live for their own happiness and find the strength from within to set goals, trust the process, and conquer their own personal struggles.
