Please Help ME with:: During university I met someone that was very interested in their health. I had never had an issue with keeping weight off. I was always between 110-117lbs and could consume anything and everything without a second of hesitation. Being a smoker my health was very depleted. I couldn’t even hardly run up a small flight of stairs. I knew something had to change.

After University I made the commitment to quit smoking and with success I did it. With that I gained 25lbs in a short few months. I was very unhappy, depressed and unconfident(unsupportive BF) with my new body and even debated to start smoking again. Then came the diet books and trust me I think I own almost them of all….. I think I had almost tried everything the wrong way first! Cutting calories at one point I was down to 500cals a day…(when I think about that now I shake my head..I gained weight doing that) after months of improper dieting I started to learn more about proper nutrition and lightly attempting cardio.

I was in line at a grocery store and saw ----------- Magazine picked it up and started to browse it a little and of course had to have it. I thought that women in that issue to be inspiring! They were all so beautiful and muscular. True beauty not unrealistically skinny. I read every last page and even found a great work out routine (my first taste of weight training).

Fitness became my passion. I then took the set of three courses to become a personal trainer at the University of Victoria to properly train myself. Courses and conventions on nutrition. Reading ----------Magazine for all those great recipes, routines, targeting muscle groups. The more I learned about it the more passionate I became.

I am now finally starting to budge in my weight and not only that I feel good. I was a regular at the gym at 5-6days a week. I loved being there with like minded people.

I was again reading ------ Magazine and decided I wanted to be a figure athlete. I gave myself a year to train. I completely trained myself with information I had researched. I had some great guidance from a friend afar. My body was taking on shapes that I thought never possible. My “no excuse” rule worked. It was hard to get there, never realized how expensive it is to compete. I did what was possible to make it to the finish line with first in mind. Working 6-7days a week to pay for the expenses and fees. I made my goal a reality with sweat and tears :0). When I walked on stage I have never felt more alive and happy. It was such a huge accomplishment for me. Just standing there was rewarding enough for me, to know that all that I had to surpass to make it there and I DID IT! I placed fourth and got a trophy to never forget.

My Dietary &/or Training Routine:: to converse with like minded people :0)

My Hero / Role Model / Trainer / Sponsor / Coach / Guru... and Why: I am training and coaching myself
