I planned to do my first NPC show in 2012, Bikini Division. I was super excited about it. Finally I could whip myself into better shape by doing a show. I was nervous at first, but after attending one I was hooked. So I searched for training coaches in the area, found one and started the training and the diet. First week into the training and diet and realized I was pregnant... Life since finding out I was pregnant has been a crazy. I delivered at 24 weeks a 1 lb 4 oz baby girl. Life as I knew it changed forever and has been a whirlwind ever since. My full story is posted in my blog if you're interested�

I wouldn't say that I honestly love working out. I see it as a necessary evil... Cancer and health problems run in my family and we always say that it's not a matter of if...just when it will happen. I am determined that if and when it does I am going to be in great shape to fight it. I would be lying if I said that I just can't wait to get to the gym each day though... :)
