I'm a 25-year-old doglover and geek living on the Space Coast of Florida. I love space, Disney, science fiction, Star Wars, comic books and costuming. I have two beautiful dogs: Seattle, a Lab/Pit bull mix, and Kaylee, a German Shepherd/Pit bull mix. They are the loves of my life, aside from my coach and rocket scientist boyfriend, Markus, who inspired me to start on my journey. I joined up to be a coach after trying and falling in love with Shakeology. (Can you complain about a 25% discount?) Now that I have realized the motivation I alone get from being a coach, I want to help whoever else I can, too.

I am a certified Turbo Kick, Hip Hop Hustle and PiYo instructor. I've lost almost 40 pounds and 30+ inches off of my body thanks to Shakeology, Turbo Jam, Turbo Fire and teaching Turbo Kick. Beachbody has changed my life - literally! I teach fitness classes! I eat differently. I FEEL different. I own skinny jeans! Life just keeps getting better and better each day.

My Progress

My fitness goal: Lose Weight

Transformation story

I have been overweight since I was a kid. In 2004, I hit my highest weight at 220 pounds. It was my senior year of high school and I joined Weight Watchers with my mother to try and lose the weight. I managed to get to 183 pounds. I went back up to 218 again, then lost it once more down to 190. When I moved to Florida, I continued to struggle between the 180-190 range. I did manage to hit 178 for the first time in life using South Beach. The results, however, did not last long. Here we are again, 197 pounds and miserable.

I first got introduced to Beachbody products through P90X. We fought, cried and cursed through two months of it before I gave up. Then in September 2009, I ran my first 5k and got hooked on races. I decided to sign up for the Disney Princess Half Marathon in March 2010. I did a lot of running to train for the event, but then hurt myself about a month before the race. I was devastated. At the time my boyfriend (and coach) had started Insanity. I loved it, even though it was impossibly hard for me with my knee. I modified a lot of the exercises to compensate for my knee and took MANY breaks. Doing a few days of Insanity for two weeks helped me prepare my endurance for the race. I am convinced that because of that work, I was able to finish ALL 13.1 miles.

This is a HUGE milestone for me and shows just how far I've come mentally (not just physically) from the 220-pound miserable college student I used to be.

My personal fitness journey is far from over. So far I've lost almost 30 inches and 23 pounds. Beachbody has changed my life and I can't wait to finish my transformation story!
