My Name is Simone and I'm 28 years old. I am the mother of two beautiful kids (Ages 8 and 2) and a Proud Wife. For as long as I've known myself I have always been athletically active in one form of sports or another. I was brought up in the Caribbean so most of my life I've participated in various sports such as Volleyball, Netball, Tennis and my favorite pastime Running!

After graduating from High School in 1999 I was fully into Track Events, specifically the 1,500m and 3,000m. My love for long distance running soon took me out on the roads. After a couple of 2 mile runs i found that my passion was really road running as opposed to track competitions and so i took up training for 2 milers and 5Ks. In 2001 I had my daughter, things slowed down for a bit after having gained about 60 lbs, however, i fought and got my body back into shape and was at 138lbs and a size 4/6 for the first time ever in 2006. By the time i really got to enjoy my new body i was pregnant again, this time with my son who was born in December of 2007. The ride was rough, with complications and i spent my pregnancy pigging out on all the wrong things, gaining 65lbs and tipping the scale at 203lbs. Immediately i went into depression and have been struggling with my weight ever since. I've yo-yoed up and down with fad diets and managed to get my weight down to 155lbs last summer (2009). That didn't last long and i'm now back up to 178lbs. I saw the advert for INSANITY and i told myself "it is time to take control of me!". So this is it, here I am, taking control of me, determined to succeed at revamping my body and my mind, learning how to control what i eat and when i eat it while working out at my full potential and even further! I'm ready to Dig Deeper!!!
