I am a 40 year old mother of 2 girls. I am just like every other woman who has been through a bunch of exercise videos and classes and struggled with body image ever since I could remember.

Although I played sports in highschool, life happened, and I slowly got more out of shape and unhappy with how I looked and felt. After I gave birth, it became even more difficult to eat well and take care of myself.

I finally have achieved a body I am proud of- not just how it looks but how I feel and what I can do.

I don't feel or look 40 and I am proud of the example of a healthy food and exercise relationship I am setting for my daughters.

I am an occupational therapist with a specialty certification in upper extremity rehabilitation. I live in rural Idaho and I love to golf, hike, cross country ski and cook.

My Progress

My Fitness Goal: Get Healthy

Transformation Story

I weighed 174 after the birth of my last daughter. I had to have c sections with both of my girls and it was a struggle just to pick up a gallon of milk because of the loss of my core strength. My entire life I was never satisfied with how I looked or felt. I had the typical 'love hate' relationship with food, and often used food as a reward or in times of stress.

I lost some weight after my second child, but as much as I tried, I couldnt get the last 10 pounds off my 5'4" frame. I was running or walking 6 miles a day and caring for 2 young children in addition to working. I was stressed and unhappy.

I found P90X through a friend, and I thought "if she can do it, I can too!" and completed the first round. Before I knew it, I finished 2 rounds, then a round of Insanity and now I am in the middle of a hybrid.

I am in the best shape of my life- I don't look or feel 40. I finally, after years of wrestling with my body image and self esteem am so proud of not just how I look but how I feel.
