My BodyPROUD Story: I love the gym. I love lifting weights. Always a natural and I always will be. Healthy, good tasting food just makes me feel good too. The strength I achieve in the weight room far exceeds my physical self and works wonders for my mind, confidence, and self-esteem. I hope, always, to inspire and encourage others in their health journey as well.
I am a Christian. God, my husband, and my church family have helped me overcome great obstacles in my life. All good things are from God and He gives me my strength and abilities and has blessed me with a working body I can enjoy developing.

My AHA Life Defining Moments:: Began intense training for 1st competition 16 weeks out, IDFA Novice Figure Oct.25th,2008, 1st place. The following week I competed in the ABBA Fall Classic show and won 1st place in Women's Lightweight Bodybuilding. I also won Women's Overall Bodybuilding and won the award for best sportsmanship.

There's no greater feeling of accomplishment than just getting out on the stage. No matter where you are physically compared to anyone else, you've already come so far for yourself and should be proud of that.

To Become BodyPROUD, I commit to do the Following:: I want to continue to increase lean muscle mass and maintain leanness.
Eat clean.

Life Advice that Helped Me:: Give er'. You have to push yourself, use good form, and high intensity to really get a good burn and see the results. Anyone can do it and you DO owe it to yourself to make the time to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

How I Boosted my Confidence and/or Added Joy and/or Health into my Life:: Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right. -Henry Ford.

Please Help ME with:: My friend, Gerry, is a retired Nationals bodybuilder. He set up my programs and meal plans for me and helped me out if he was in between sets and would show me how to do the exercises I had questions about. He has been my number one motivation. I always make sure I go to the gym when he is there so I am extra careful with my form in case he's watching.
My mom helped me out so much, taking posing practice pictures for me and supporting me at my shows. Everyone at the gym is very supportive and a couple of my girlfriends and I have coffee meetings every couple of weeks to stay motivated and encourage each other.
As much as this is a very individual sport, we really all need support from others as much as possible and I am truly and grateful for it!

My Dietary &/or Training Routine:: I hope to be able to inspire others that see my profile. I am happy for my accomplishments and it is a great opportunity to be a part of this site!

Expressing Gratitude is a Key Ingredient to a Happy Life. I Am Grateful for:: My wins in my bodybuilding show. I love being a body builder. When I looked out at my mom giving me a thumbs up with the hugest smile I've ever seen for my sportsmanship award, that was my proudest moment.
