I have always been active but end of 2011 I noticed I have put on a few pounds and needed to make a change! I was a competitive figure skater and always stayed in shape growing up. But in 2011 started to feel myself getting lazy. I thought there is no way I will be over weight since I never ever was. I was wrong! I got up to 136 pounds and was buying a bigger pants size telling myself it was the cut. Lol In September of 2011 I went to England and took lots of photos. When I got home I didn't like any of them because my face was fat. That is when I decided I need to do something! I signed up for a bikini competition in May 2012. I need a end goal or I won't stick with it. It was a big event I had 25 in my group and placed 13th. At that point I was hooked. :) Competing has always been a big part of my life I'm so happy I found this sport!!!
