Profile Information
- My BodyPROUD Story
- Two years ago I weighed nearly 250 pounds... suffered torn tendons in my right foot and OA in my left knee. My orthopedic doctor told me I needed to lose weight and lose it fast or get knee replacement. I'm only 36 and don't want to go through that. My best friend is a bodybuilder and encouraged me to start lifting... I did but the weight wasn't coming off like they wanted it to. So I talked to my doctors and discussed Bariatric... so on December 29, 2008 I had WLS and one year to date I've lost 87 pounds. I feel great and am lifting like crazy. It was a rough road but I'm PROUD of what I am, where I am, and WHO I am!!! I am body proud.

Lean Down..
Posted on January 21, 2010 at 9:25am 2 Comments 0 Likes
Ok Monday I want to start a lean down... my question is. How do I lose 15 lbs and not lose the muscle I've gained? I don't want to go on an ALL cardio I want to continue with the weight lifting and @ the weight I llift. Can anyone out there help me?

Bad workout tonight...
Posted on January 4, 2010 at 12:43am 0 Comments 0 Likes
Didn't have a very good workout tonight... my roomy benches more than I can lift. I'm not sure if I can spot him if he fails. Completely freaked out on him and even cried. I could not finish my workout because I was too work up about it. I know that sounds stupid but I lost my motivation because of it. I hate it when he benches. Sorry for venting!
My goal for this week...
Posted on December 29, 2009 at 2:56pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
Before I go back to work next week I intend on shocking my body by working out twice in day... Cardio in the morning and weight lifting in the evening.
Just finished a 35 min bike... Hitting the triceps later tonight.

- Hi Amy,
You mean the cost for the event or travel? I don't know event rate, but travel for me is $250.00 rd. trip or less. I will not need accomodations, I have family there. So it is kind off a no-brainer for me, unless other commitments come into play. We'll see! I'll keep in touch and see what your plans are as well.
Have a great day!

- Sure,but it is amazing how much you can grow. I have to do balcony gardening, each year is different. Last year was the worst, it was a cold, windy summer and nothing grew. This year I have a lot growing. I like it because when I grow it, I know it!!

- Amy,
That is soo cool! I picked scallions, thyme and lettuce today. Using the scallions and thyme for chicken slow-cooking in crockpot now and lettuce for lunch salad. Got the seeds from Botanical Interests, they are organic and are the best I have ever had. Wish I could grow cucumbers!!
