i got started when i saw a photo of myself and thats when i realized how much weight i had gained, so i did something about it but i wanted to do it the right way with a healthy diet and exercise! i 've already done every 'wrong' way and was never happy, so i wanted to it and do it 'right'!
Why I Love It:
when i first started working out...i hated it! i only did it because i HAD to, it was a chore but then it really developed into a true passion. i love going to the gym...its my favorite part of the day! i look forward to it---my 'me' time! training has given me so much strength (mentally and physically) that i never knew i could have. i feel good about myself for the first time in my life. it gives me the confidence in myself and pure happiness with who i am!
How I Stay Motivated:
my motivation is seeing the results and progress that i have made...i never want to go back to the person that i was before. i have never looked or felt so good in my whole life! even if i'm having a bad day and life is getting me down, i know i will feel better if i just go to the gym. it keeps me sane in a crazy world :)

My first show! I placed 2nd in both Novice and Open Figure at the OCB Charm City Classic!!!
WOW...Placed 2nd in Figure Novice AND Open!!!! Now, Its time to gain some muscle...BUILD, BUILD, BUILD!!!!
Goal (Long):
i'm very happy with the progress i've made but i will never be satisifed, i always have a drive and passion for more! i have already changed my life, i'm the most fit and most healthy i have ever been and i want to inspire others to do the same! the self confidence that training has given me, cannnot be measured! i did a photo shoot and a figure competition, it was so empowering and made me know i can do anything and to not let fears hold me back! for the first time in my life i found something that i really love and by finally stepping on stage...a place i feel like i belong! i can't wait to continue to compete and improve myself each day. i hope that i can in a small way change the image of punk rock chicks...we can have tattoos/piercings and still be athletic, fit and healthy! i am going to make my all dreams a reality! i have stepped out of my box...and i dont ever want to go back in :D
i couldnt think of a good title but that pretty much sums up the way i've been feeling. i weighed myself this morning and i'm up to 115lbs, which i'm sure to many doesnt sound like much but i'm up 10lbs since my competition...which is really comes as no surprise to me. ever since my show my...
my new training program is a 3 day split. i am doing a 3 day on---1 day off routine. i have good symmetery, so i am focused on gaining muscle...looking for overall thickness!
heres an example of my routine:
day 1: legs
day 2: chest/arms
day 3: back/shoulder/abs
day 4: REST!

oh i hope you have better luck than me when that time comes ;) hehe... i would have laid money that i'd be SUPER healthy about it... but it's like so many of the "restrictions" were removed... i swear it was 6 months before i started to make sure i ate lunch AND THEN if i had room, treats! hehe... it's funny cause i put on most of my weight right away and now it's slowed down a lot though i hear warnings that it picks back up... help me Lord!!! haha
Thanks! Part of my irresisible charm. Sorry, just having a good day. Oh, I plan to stay home for good...not as spry as my Desert Storm/Southern Watch days.
