What would you recommend to others who want to be fit and healthy?

Do whats best for you and your body! One kind of fitness for one person may not be whats for you. The best way to get fit is to enjoy what your doing. Combine your fitness with something you like, such as hiking, dancing, a favorite sport, etc.

How does fitness positively influence your life?

Fitness is helping me get control of my life. I decided to make a change after I almost lost my life to pneumonia a year ago. I may not be Ms Health and Fitness yet, but I am working hard to accomplish this.

If you were the next Ms Health and Fitness, what would you do with $20,000?

I would put it toward bettering myself.
