What are your greatest fitness accomplishments so far?
5th place at Border States San Diego in my first competition
I went from 31% body fat to 17% in 5 months!!!
WHAT CHANGES HAVE YOU SEEN & WHAT HAS HELPED YOU MAKE THE TRANSFORMATION?
I have changed so much through the 5 months of my transformation. After finding out I was allergic to gluten, soy and amongst many other things I had to make a change. Setting a big goal like competing was truly my biggest gift. I did this solely for the purpose of competing against myself. My faith grew stronger because I was the only one that was going to make a difference day in and day out. Now I feel like I can do anything.
What do you enjoy most about fitness?
Becoming stronger and stronger and seeing the changes happen.
What are your fitness goals?
To be 40 and absolutely fabulous! I want to continue to push myself to be better everyday. I would love to become a published fitness model and become a weightloss specialist.
What motivates you to maintain a healthy lifestyle?
The feeling of being totally aware and in touch with everything in my body. I am so thankful for full mobility in my body and I want to enjoy that for the rest of my life.
