In 1997, I earned a BS in Exercise Science from East Carolina University. I learned about lifting weights and correct form at college but never changed my eating habits so I never could obtain the body I so badly wanted.
I have been on a life long struggle w/ my weight. I have been as low as 98 lbs when i was 21 to 142 lbs in my early 30's. I also sustained a pretty severe back injury in 2006 which required me to stop everything for 6 months. I told myself then that once I healed my back injury, I would never again complain a bout working out and I would chase my dream of competing in figure. Ive since committed myself to a life long program of eating clean and consistent workouts to get where i am now..and i hope to continue to improve. Working out makes me feel strong and healthy and I love watching the changes in my body...Its all about learning to accept my body and trying to achieve better fitness...SO, its taken me 37 years to figure it out but who cares...its NEVER too late to chase your dreams.
Im a world traveler as a flight attendant for a major airline but always dedicate time to my body, family and friends! Others would describe me as fiesty, spunky, energetic, outgoing, straight shooter and someone who loves to laugh and smile. I just competed in April 2009 for the first time in SNBF for figure and am now competing in the NPC! I'm hardworking and NEVER give up on something I really want! Im looking forward to what tomorrow will bring~ the opportunities and experiences will be a BLAST! Living life to the fullest...just hoping a beach with white sand is never too far away!
