Sorry....the cheerleaders are over there, this area is for the players!

Okay, so I don't look at my "assets"  or lack there of as rule breakers for playing the game. If you are already lost, let me be more blunt. Yes I have tits....well kinda anyway LOL. For the slower followers I'm saying I don't have big boobs but at least because of my DNA I do in fact have what men so affectionately call tits and thanks to these God given multi functional mounds nicely placed on top of my Pectoralis Major muscle I am some how disqualified for playing the game. Because I am a girl I am not aloud to build muscle? What? Here is the problem I have with that. Apparently my options are skinny with big boobs (this seems to be the more popular option with the men) or fat (less appealing option). Why cant I be in the middle? Beautiful sculpted muscles?? Hmmmm! Can anyone tell me why it is socially not acceptable for a woman to build muscle? Should I really be sentenced to a life of work, eat, sleep repeated over the course of a week, continuing until I die? Why is muscle on a man sexy yet not on a woman? This is straight BS! A good amount of people ask me...."why would you want to look like that?" My response..."look like what exactly?" secretly I'd like to think they are just pissed I'm so dedicated and focused. I get that it's not for everyone but you wouldn't walk up to a fat person and ask them the same question would you?! See my point? Now to be fair not everyone is a hater,  I do have a ton of people (both men and women) supporting my journey. To this group, thank you!! Your support is awesome and If I can inspire someone to be healthier then I have done my job! :) Im not pushing anyone to drink the koolaid (its just pre workout stuff anyway) LOL my drive is for my goal and my goal alone. Whatever your goal is I hope you forge ahead and leave the haters behind! As for me you can find me in the players section!

Tip of the day: this tip is for the soda drinkers....if you drink multiple sodas a day try substituting a water in place of one of your sodas a day. Gradually increase until water is the only thing you are drinking in your day :) this will help you lose weight and feel better!

  1. Alright so I just have to say that you have absolutely inspired me to get healthier. I have been lifting small weights at home and eating better and totally love. I would love to get into lifting weights more but I have a hernia so I need to be very careful about what I'm doing. You are truly amazing and inspiring! Keep up the great work!

  2. Carrie, thank you! That is awesome that you are taking steps to a healthier you! Small weights are okay and can be very effective :) try doing a lot of reps....20-30 quick and controlled. Do that for 3-4 sets and you will feel the burn and work up a sweat! Doing this will make those 5lbs feel heavy! Let me know if you have any questions. Keep up the good work and good food choices. From what I have read on your page you are doing really great!!
