Do you cringe when you see old pics of where you started? . . This is where I started in 2014. I hadn't attended any previous bodybuilding shows nor did I know anyone in bodybuilding. Entered blindly. I never originally planned to do a competition, I wanted to be fit for my 40th birthday....we accomplished that earlier than planned & then I decided to do a competition....as a bucket πͺ£list thing. . Wasn't a REAL contender, yet proud for going through with it. Long story short...never despise small beginnings or lack of experience...cause, whatever it meant for you to know will be revealed.. In time. . . Dreams don't die. We just stop working towards them. You can transform your mind & body at ANY AGE...regardless of what you have going on....maybe it'll take a little longer but who's counting? Live your life full & die empty! It's been 7 years since I started and I've learned so much about bodybuilding, competing & most importantly myself! . . Yesterday was officially peak week....I'm not counting the days, I'm making every day count. Saturday's a BIG deal for me. I don't need luck, a prayer for me to do MY best is so welcome. Thanks in advance for your love, support and prayers. Livestreaming info will be shared closer towards the end of the week! . . #npcnewsonline #npctexas #tcmnationals2021 #fitmomsover45 #fitblackmoms #fitspo #fitfam #startedfromthebottom #novice #figuregirlsrock #ronniecolemanclassic2014 #branchwarrenclassic2014 #transformation https://www.instagram.com/p/CRdtkLyDQS1/?utm_medium=tumblr
