I'm so excited I wasn't too shy to ask

So today was another great day!  I had a great workout (although I have to walk to my tippy toes or crawling is better cuzz my calves are killing me)!!  I was working out and I noticed this woman....she was almost super human.  She was just a petite little thing yet lean, toned with j...

Getting past my obstacles and past mistakes

O.k. so yes I've made a mistake and messed up once again.  And no I am not drinking again, but that will always be a past demon in my life.  I'm dealing with other mistakes from my past and there were a few of them that surfaced almost all at once and I have always had problems d...

Wow, that did not sound easy at all haha :) You are doing amazing, I can't even imagine how though that would have been! Thank you for filling me in! And Happy late Valentines to you! Plyometric Cardio is a combination of jumping exercise, running up bleachers/stairs and a lot of cardio, and it's not as easy as it sounds either haha :) Today I tried a totally new lifting program, designed to put on maximum mass and size - and I loved, loved, loved it! I've been doing the Body-for-Life routine for a year now (!) on and off, but I guess my body needed the change. Also I want to put on some muscle :) Hope you are doing well, have a wonderful Thursday! Are you coming to Dallas by the way? Lots of love&light to you, Deirdre!

Oh, that was so fun to read! Yes, I'm interested - tell me everything. Today I tried something absolutely new to shock my body a little - Insanity Workout by Shaun T. I have NEVER been so tired after a workout in my life, and that was just the Fit Test to check where I'm at - haha :) Can't wait to tomorrows workout - plyometric cardio workout!

I Am

It's hard to say who I really am because I'm not sure I even know. I have been an alcoholic since high school, so you can pretty much say my life has been a blurr. I grew up with alcoholism in my family and remember throwing away my mom's bottles when I was in elementary school. Somehow I stayed away from alcohol until I was introduced to backyard parties on the weekends with lots of kegs!! This is when the feeling came over me of not caring about my current problems and what I thought was complete freedom and happiness. I never knew where that first drink was going to take me. Let's just say it has been a VERY long, hard road....and I'm more than ready to take the other path that I have steered so far from.
Unfortunately, I lost my mom from alcoholism in 2005 and that's when I thought my life couldn't possibly get any worse...but it did. I fell so deep into my addiction that I should have lost my life a LONG time ago and many times thereafter.
So here I am. I love reading about nutrition, learning new techniques in the gym, hearing everyones success stories and I love working out. I feel there is no greater feeling than when I am sore from working out or when I kindof feel queasy after a hard cardio workout. My biggest obstacle has always been nutrition. When I was drinking, that was all I would have all day. Vodka. My taste buds changed and were pretty much numb to the taste of food so I would stop eating cuzz nothing tasted good. I could drink 750 mL bottle a day and chase it with beer. No food, little water and no vitamins. When I told you I should have been gone a long time ago I wasn't kidding. I've taken such advantage of my body it makes me cry. And for some unknown reason my blood work and everything in a physical is normal. I still can't figure out what the big guy has kept me here for but it seems as though he has big plans for me and I can't wait to see what's in store.
Now that I'm not drinking, I have no problem eating 6 small healthy meals a day. I actually want more! I'd like 8! So that's where I need my help from you. How to stop my nocturnal eating habits. If only I could get to sleep at a decent hour I could stop thinking about food. My poor metabolism. It doesn't know what to do anymore.
Was I supposed to write all this in the I AM part?? Oh well, my fingers got carried away :)

My Favorite Charity

Make-A-Wish

To me, Transformation Means

Living the dream....MY dream! I can already see it, feel it, breathe it. This will be the feeling of freedom. Freedom from being trapped in a body, mind and spirit that isn't mine. Finding the inner strength to have the lean, toned, healthy body I so desperately want and then sharing it with anyone who will listen. Having a strong, healthy mind free from depression, anxiety, insomnia, and insecurity.

My Goals

HHHMMMM....my goals. I want to be happy! I want to lose 25 lbs of weight, but I'm unsure of how to figure out how many lbs. of muscle I want to gain...enough to be lean and toned in 18 weeks. And the size of a dress or jeans is different with every store I go into, but I'd like to be a size 2.
My other goal that I almost forgot about is to know what it feels like to have a self-esteem and self confidence.

My Intentions

My intentions on this site is to make many new friends, transform my body beyond my wildest dreams, inspire tons of people and become the person I knew I could always be.

Who I'd Like to Inspire

I'd love to inspire anyone that's willing to be inspired!!! But I really want to inspire my dad!!! His dr. told him he needs to lose some weight (he's not obese just has a beer belly). He's 76 yrs. old, still working and works out with me every once in a while. I just don't know what I'd do without him!! But like me, he loves to eat and is stubborn about changing his eating habits.
Who's inspired me? Bill Phillips (of course) and everyone who works so hard to complete this transformation and shows us that it CAN be done!
On a sobriety level Nikki Sixx and Kat Von D inspire me to stay sober, and also everyone else that I come in contact with that has stayed sober and has shown me that I can be sober and transform my body and life! Thanks everyone...
