I've been working out since 2003. I became an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer in 2004. Even though I was working out, I never really pushed myself to see what I could really do with my body.
Suddenly, my 30th birthday was just around the corner. I decided that I wanted to be in better shape on my 30th birthday than I was on my 20th. In November of 2010 (with 6 months until the b-day) I decided to go hardcore. I began a food-plan and fitness routine that rocked my world. By the time I turned 30 I had hit my goal weight of 105, and lost 6 dress sizes.
I haven't stopped yet! I am getting ready to compete next fall, and I am so excited about improving upon what I already have. I LOVE helping other people succeed as well.
My motto is: My body is my calling card. When people approach me about fitness advice, and then ask me for a business card, I tell them my body is my business card. NOTHING tastes as good as looking good feels.
