I was gaining a lot of weight. I was eating out and drinking heavily and not working out. My wonderfully supportive boyfriend hooked me up with a personal trainer who was very motivating. Unfortunately it didn't work out at that gym and we had to leave. My next trainer was even more motivating and within 3 months she had me ready for my first show.

Working out makes me feel so good. I also enjoy seeing the results of all my hard work.
