I was crushed when a boyfriend during college informed me that the reason we would not continue to date was because of my weight. I went overboard and started to starve myself, and threw myself into cardio daily. A few months after that, I started to see progress and it then became about me. Since then I have lost 40 pounds and have become a new person. I have come to love this lifestlye...I eat, sleep, and live it daily!

I am addicted to the runner's high I get when I find my stride in a long run, I thrive on the intense feeling of my muscle reaching past its perceived limits to heavier weights and longer reps, I smile when I can do things in the gym that most guys can't and most of all I love waking up in the moring with a better perception on life!
