Hi there! Thanks for visiting my site!

Let me share a little about myself: I'm a California (Go Bears!) to Nebraska (Go Huskers!) transplant. I work in higher education, am engaged to be married October 2011, and have a Chihuahua, Dakota Lynn. I love arts and crafts and love making homemade/handmade gifts. I also love looking good and feeling great, which is how my life crossed paths with Beachbody.

A little history: In 2005 I lost 80 pounds in 8 months (April to December). I weighed 233 pounds in April 2005 and dropped down to 150 by December 2005 (ok, so maybe it's really 83 pounds). It's interesting really because I never intended to lose that much weight and as quickly as I did but it happened. It was also my first time attempting to lose weight and it wasn't hard for me. Yes, I just said that--it wasn't hard for me. I enjoyed the rush that exercise gave me and loved that 'old' clothes were fitting me again. I was a single woman living in Santa Barbara, California (where the weather is great 360 days of the year), working 7 days a week, and taking classes. My life was very redundant and structured so I think that helped me. I also have OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) so looking back I really think my OCD had a lot to do with my willpower and discipline to eat right and exercise regularly.

In October 2009 I joined a local boot camp gym. It was there that I first heard of Insanity (one of the other members was talking about how she'd seen it on TV and how crazy it was).
