2008 News

Happy New Year to everyone! Hope 2007 was a great year for all of you! 2007 was my hardest year ever preparing for shows. I guess after staying in contest shape for 5 years straight my body was not happy and began to break down on me. I dieted all last Thanksgiving thru Feb. and did the Sacramento Ca. show placing 3rd in the LW's, very happy about that! From there I went on to do the Jan Tana IFBB show in NY in June. I must say: I was in the BEST shape of my life at that show, despite the fact I could hardly walk! MRI's had shown that my ACL was torn and that I had bone on bone in both knees, especially my right knee. I also have a hole the size of a quarter in my femur due to wear and tear and arthritus. Anyway I was determined to make it to the June show NO MATTER what! I made it and I placed 4th in the LW's. After that the DR. said" if you want to walk by time your 50 you may want to retire!! He also wanted to go in right away and do knee scope surgery, which meant NO more contests for 2007:( I had wanted to do ALL of them! I wanted to Europa and the Atlantic City!! It was not meant to be. on July 3rd 2007 , right after the Jan Tana I had knee surgery which confirmed I did have some really bad issues with my knees. My surgery was done by Dr Bartolozzi, he was the surgeon for the "Eagles and the Fyers in Philly, so I trusted whatever he told me. I was faced with either having a total knee/femoral replacement or: STOP lifting heavy with my legs forever!!! Well, I decided to stop the heavy stuff. At 47 I was not going to have that surgery NOT knowing the outcome. So my friends, I rehabed my knee for 3 months and then slowly began to lift LIGHT weights again. I will always be in pain in both my knees, that I can deal with. What I have a hard to dealing with is: NOT being on stage. Since I will be unable to keep the size in my legs, I cant see myself competing again. Its all about symmetry and without training my legs heavy..theres NO way I can keep up size. Its bittersweet, I have been on stage since I was 23! I have done OVER 35 shows and I will miss the stage SO much! But...I will still do my best to maintain my body through weight training and healthy eating. I will NOT let all the work dissapear! I will also continue to do webcams and appear at contests, you are not rid of me just yet!!! And who knows: maybe down the road...someday I may return to the stage...just in a differant package:)) Thank ALL of you for your constant support!! I love you all for the love and kindness you have shown me! I am not dead yet!! Keep those e-mails coming and come see me on the cams!! I promise you a GREAT show!!


 Keep a lookout for my upcoming DVD!!! Hope to have it for sale here on my site in my Store by summer!! Its a MUST see!!
  Love & Prayers

2007 News:

Happy New Year everyone! I hope the Holidays were healthy & Happy for all of you! I am looking forward to my 2007 Contest! At this point I have signed 3 contest contracts with the IFBB. First show is in 5 weeks from now, this is the Sacramento Ca. Steel Rose Pro show. Next stop is the Europa in August in Texas and then I finish my season in Atlantic City in Sept. The weight classes are back this year in the smaller shows, which I am VERY happy about! It gives us little girls a better chance to place higher & hopefully a better chance at the Olympia! That's my Dream. I had put in for an Arnold invite this year, but didn't get it. I am very disappointed as I have been competing for 23 years now and I have done over 30 NPC shows in my past before turning Pro...but I guess it was not meant to be. Regardless, I am going to burn up the stage this year and bring a Bigger, Better package. I want to thank Kim Oddo for his support last year and again this year for helping me make it through, he is a great trainer and a good friend! I still have several injuries that I am working around, but they have not stopped me yet! To learn more about that issue, you can read my "Journal" or join my mailing list which is free!! Thank you all for you kind, supportive e-mails! You make contest prep so much easier and fulfilling! You guys ROCK! I hope you all have a Wonderful, Healthy , Happy 2007 and take good care!
 Peace & Love
