Q: What was your favorite food before becoming a Buff Bride?
A: I love all kinds of food. I couldn't pick just one.
Q: What was your favorite body part before losing your weight?
A: I didn't really have one.
Q: What was your motivation to lose the weight and get fit?
A: I really wanted to make a lifestyle change. I've always been uncomfortable in a gym setting. I was always self-conscious and thought people were watching me — which they weren't. That's one thing I've learned: nobody cares what anybody else is doing when they're at the gym. I wanted to get more comfortable in a gym setting and know what proper exercises to do. And, of course, get buff before the big day.
Q: Did you exercise before becoming a Buff Bride? If so, how often and what did you do?
A: I didn't really work out before Buff Brides, mostly because I was paranoid of the gym. I always knew that I would be "THAT" girl at the gym who would fall off the treadmill or drop a bunch of weights and have everyone looking at me — you know, the Mary Catherine Gallagher of the fitness world.
