Progress photos don’t lie — they teach.
These two shots are only 6 weeks apart, and they remind me why documenting your journey is just as important as showing up for the work itself.

When I compare these images, I can see clear improvements in several muscle groups:
• Deltoids (anterior + lateral heads) — fuller, rounder shoulder caps
• Pectoralis major — increased upper-chest density
• Biceps + brachialis — noticeably greater thickness
• Triceps (long & lateral heads) — more separation and shape
• Trapezius — stronger overall upper-body frame
• Vascularity — increased visibility along the arms and shoulders, reflecting improved conditioning
• Overall leanness — tighter musculature and reduced subcutaneous softness

And I want to highlight something important for my menopausal women:
I’m on HRT, and it has been a crucial part of my ability to train hard, recover well, build muscle, and feel like myself again. Hormonal changes can impact strength, energy, sleep, fat distribution, mood, and recovery — but you don’t have to just “accept” feeling unlike yourself.

HRT isn’t a shortcut.
It’s a tool — one that helps restore the physiological foundation you deserve to function and thrive on.

Pair that with consistency, training, and nutrition, and your body can surprise you at any age.

If you’re navigating menopause and want support, guidance, or someone who truly understands the process — I’m here. 💪✨

Here’s a vulnerable post for me…
These photos are 6 weeks apart, and they’re of the body part I’m the most self-conscious about: my legs.

I still have a LONG way to go—10 more months to grow these stems, lose more fat, and continue improving my cellulite. But progress is progress, and I’m proud of myself for finally doing the work.

Cellulite facts (bc we don’t talk about it enough):
• Cellulite affects around 90–95% of women, no matter their weight, fitness level, or body shape.
• It’s caused by the way fat, muscle, and connective tissue are structured—not because someone is “out of shape.”
• It’s normal, common, genetic, and not a sign of poor health.
Basically… most women have it, and none of us should feel ashamed of it.

In the pics you can clearly see 127 lbs (before) vs 121 lbs (after). The difference isn’t just the scale—it’s the quality of the work.

And here’s the ironic part…
At 127 lbs my metabolism was a mess because I was under-eating. I was eating only 1200 calories. Now? I’m eating 1500 calories at 121 lbs and my body is responding SO much better.

Even though I’m a fitness coach and I know what to do, I’ll be real:
I wasn’t pushing myself.
I wasn’t doing cardio.
I wasn’t doing abs.
I was going to the gym 3–4 days a week for 30–40 minutes and half-assing my workouts.

Working with Mike Ciulla changed that. He made me see my weaknesses and gave me the accountability I truly needed. Now I push myself because I want to make him proud, I want to make my team proud, and most importantly—I want to make myself proud.

This is just the beginning.
Six weeks down… many more to go. 💪🔥

Ps. And yes, I'm on Hormone replacement therapy Estrogen (patch) and Progesterone, and I love it, I feel human again, please feel free to message me if you have any questions.

St. Lucia will always have a piece of my heart. 💙🌴 I still think back to my trip in 2002—crystal waters, lush green peaks, and that warm Caribbean breeze that stays with you forever. I miss the islands so much.

I remember feeling sad back then because the wildlife and fish were scarce… they were still using dynamite fishing in some areas, and the ocean life was really suffering. It broke my heart to see such beauty struggling.

But you know what? This year, I’m ready to go back to the tropics. ☀️🌺

Four weeks apart ✨
Same me — just consistent training, dialed-in nutrition, and a whole lot less bloat. Feeling stronger, clearer, and finally seeing those baby abs peek through 👀💪

Menopause doesn’t get the final say — you do. And if you want guidance, structure, and support, I offer online coaching to help you feel and look your best through every phase. ❤️🔥

Funny looking back and realizing I was into fitness long before I ever claimed it. 😅

24 years ago there I was, hitting a crab-most-muscular pose in front of the Eiffel Tower, showing off the toned arms in front of the Mont-Saint-Michel, and pretending to climb the cliffs at Pointe du Hoc like it was nothing. I thought I was just being goofy — but the fitness spark was already there.

And just like fitness, I picked up my travel passion again too — starting over after divorce and rebuilding my life one step, one trip, one victory at a time. Now at 50, I’m stronger, more grounded, and more adventurous than ever.

Menopause isn’t slowing me down. Starting over didn’t break me. Travel fuels me. Fitness empowers me. Life isn’t waiting… and neither am I. ✨

We all struggle, and I’ve been there too. But you don’t have to navigate perimenopause or menopause alone. If you’re ready to feel healthier, stronger, and more confident in your own skin, I’m here to help.
Reach out today to chat about my online coaching for women in peri- and menopause. Let’s do this together. 💪✨

Week 1 done. First three are from today, last three from last Sunday. Starting weight 127lbs, weight this am, 122.2 (It's not fat loss, just water weight) eating 200 more cals a day, working hard AF at the gym. Not much of a difference in look yet, just a little less fluffy, but I feel strong.

I'm just very excited for my cheat meal tonight:)

🎃💪 I’ve always loved Halloween — the costumes, the creativity, and dressing up as characters that make me happy!

Thanks to , Team Ciulla, and their amazing support, drive, and life-changing habits, I’ve been able to embody some truly powerful female superheroes — no muscle suit needed. 💥

Lifting and building muscle has not only kept me strong and healthy, it’s given me a confidence I never had before. I feel good in my own skin — and that’s the real superpower. ✨

Now that I’ve hit half a century, I’m more determined than ever to become an even better version of myself. Over the next year, I’ll be sharing my journey — to show that with focus and determination, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. 🙌

And here’s the exciting part: as a proud member of Mike’s team, I’m dusting off my old personal training uniform and launching online coaching for women in perimenopause and menopause — starting January 1, 2026! 💻💪

If you’re ready to feel strong, confident, and unstoppable — whether your goal is getting swimsuit-ready, eating healthier, or looking like a total smoke show next Halloween — shoot me a message! Let’s make it happen. ❤️

Happy lifting!!! 🎃🔥
