Another Christmas has come and gone, Charlie Brown has thrown out his pathetic little tree, and I find myself reflecting on the most important thing about the holiday – the gifts that I did or did not receive. You would think I am still 10 years old with the number of gifts I still receive [...]

I know I have been completely dropping the ball in keeping this site updated with stimulating new topics, but my motivation level to write has been about as high as a helium balloon with a hole in it. Perhaps this is because I just finished competing in 2 shows, which entailed 15 weeks of dieting. [...]
I’m not going to get shoulders like IFBB Pro Cheryl Brown if I don’t even try.

I took a little hiatus from posting on my website – not because it was a conscious decision, rather I simply did not feel like writing and I was saying to myself “what’s the point”. Then it got me thinking – isn’t that what most people say when they go off their diet or stop [...]

I love contest prep season. And I hate it. But I hate it in that way that you hate it when your significant other leaves the dirty frying pan on the stove all day. The thing I hate about it is what I love about it. I love having a painstakingly structured diet to follow, [...]

I am proud to announce that I am a Starbucks Gold Card holder! The day I received my Gold Card in the mail was a very exciting day. My loved ones (my boyfriend) scoffed at my Gold Card out of mere jealousy and tried to claim his alleged “VIP” status at the Vitamin Shoppe was [...]

Once a week I am going to post an exercise and let’s call it the “burn factor”, for purposes of avoiding the overused title of “exercise of the week”. And in return, I want you to tell me your “burn factor” for the week. Let’s go over the rules. The exercise has to be one [...]

“I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” should be renamed “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Killing My Diet”. Ugh!!! I LOVE “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” spray. For years, I have drowned my food in it – I even spray my chicken with it until all I can taste is that awesome, buttery goodness. Butter [...]

It’s Sunday. Leg day. I’m riding in the car with Alberto, my boyfriend – my leg trainer – and we’re on our way to the gym. Leg day is the only thing that makes me question my passion for this lifestyle. I dread leg day like I dread the dentist. And leg day happens every [...]

Flipping through this month’s issue of Oxygen or Muscle & Fitness, women with perfectly sculpted arms and rippling abs adorn the pages, advertising this month’s latest scientific phenomenon that will magically transform us into a body of steel. I have a love/hate relationship with these women. I love them because they inspire me. I hate [...]
