Help and Inspiration Along my Journey

You'll notice on the right side of the page I have three links listed as my "Help and Inspiration Along the Way".  You've got to have the right tools to get you where you want to be and these are my tools!!

Kim Porterfield-
I started seeing Kim in May of 2010 and over the past year her knowledge and reassurance has pushed me to really succeed with I.E.M.  She will continue to guide me as I train for the competition in October and advise me of work outs as well.  I couldn't be doing this with out her!!

Kelsey Byers-
Two words...best friend.  Kelsey and I have become so close over the past 5 years and I truly cherish our friendship.  She has big dreams and even bigger goals for herself and I will always support her 100%.  She has in a way paved the way for me during this journey as she knows the ropes and I can totally depend on her advice and support.  This tribute is not to take away from my close friends and family that are also supporting me but to get to compete and go through an experience like this with a best friend is just priceless.  She is my fitness partner in crime :)

Jamie Eason-
So, one day at work Kelsey and I were cruising through the world of Myspace and came across Jamie's page.  We were so amazed at her physique and beauty, her personality just bursted through the photos.  Kelsey reached out to Jamie and inquired on "where to begin" to become as lean as Jamie was.  Jamie and Kelsey corresponded a couple times and Jamie was just an open book and told Kelsey about Kim Porterfield.  Well, about two years go by and after many conversations between Kelsey and I and her and her husband the idea of going to Kim sounded more realistic than impossible so Kent and Kelsey scheduled their appointment in March 2010.  I followed shortly after in May 2010 and we have been blown away with the lifestyle change we all adopted and the results that followed.  We have followed Jamie's success ever since and have been so grateful for her sharing her knowledge and getting our compass in the right direction.

October 16, 2010 Kelsey entered this same competition we will be competing in again and non other than, Jamie Eason, was there as a spectator and a presenter.  We had the absolute pleasure of finally meeting her after the show and talked to her for about 30 mins and took a few photos with her.  Her heart is so big and it really shows that she truly loves what she does.  She is an inspiration to me for the fact that she is still so humble and stayed true to herself amongst her large success.  With out her encouragement and compassion to share her knowledge I wouldn't be here right now.  Thanks Jamie!!!
