I'm going to be 60 in 2 months, 5'2, and weight 117. My fitness journey stated when I was in my late 30s. I have always been athletic and played sports but never took care of inside out. I called myself "skinny fat." I had little muscle and my eating habits were terrible. I ate 1 or 2 meals a day which weren't meals at all. I was starving myself and one day said enough. I've always been strong minded and set goals. I hired a trainer and he said "you need to compete." I said the typical statement "I don't want to be bulky!" I didn't know that I had to put on muscle to achieve the look I wanted. I wanted fullness, muscle definition, and my skin tight.
I competed in my first show and placed first. I was hooked. As my fitness career progressed I turned IFBB Pro at age 50. I competed after PRObut didn't want to keep a bigger frame to keep up in PRO. I changed and went to fitness modeling. I miss the stage but love the camera.
I have a nutritional coach and have my meals made specifically for me and what I have going on during the year. I eat 5 meals per day full protein, carbs, fats, and greens. It's not just one thing that helps my fitness. It is a combination. It's drinking at least a gallon of water, 8 hours of sleep, rest, being around positive people, and loving my career of skin tightening through lasers and aesthetics. I love changing peoples lives through their skin and fitness.
In summary life is much too short. As I mature I love each day like my last, take chances, step outside of the box and be uncomfortable. In this time is when I have had the most success and growth. My goal is to help others sharing my story. If I touch one I have achieved my goal! I'm always a work in progress. I'm not perfect and never want to be as I would have nothing to work on! ❤️
