Shabree

"Hello 👋🏼
My name is Shabree. I joined M & E June 2017. It was the best choice, I made all year!! The gym has always been a big part of my lifestyle since my teens. Being raised playing softball year round as a kid, being active has been the norm for me.
When I was in my early 20’s (I am now 35). I made a bet with my dad. Who was at the time really committed to bodybuilding. He bet me that, I couldn’t eat and follow his bodybuilding meal guild he was using at the time. (One of his pro lifting friends was coaching him).
I looked at my dad and laughed. My big mouth told pops, “I’ll meal prep and even complete in a figure show”.
The bet was for fun at first, but I did it to show support to my father. Little did, I know he created a monster. I turned into a full-blown gym rat. I’m taking double day’s cardio and lifting. I was in my early 20’s, childless, and working as a dental assistant. I had all the time in the world to train then.
I was so thankful to be coach by another good friend, who is pro female figure competitor. She train me hard for a good, 6-8 months.
I ended up competing in one show, and placed 3rd. My father also placed in the same show.
But this was over 10 year ago.

Since then, I’ve had a child (who is now 7 years old). When I found out I was pregnant I was living in a different state from my family and became unmotivated to work out. As I came to realization that I was going to become a mother I was more concentrated on family, traveling home to visit and completely stopped working out. While pregnant I gained a ton a weight. After hard work and dedication I eventually got back down to my pre pregnancy weight when, my son was almost two. By this time, I was just skinny fat (thin but lost a lot of muscle tone).
I was focusing on being a mom and school at the time.
For the passed 5 years, I’ve had my share of trainers and diet fads. They did help me to get to where, I was before joining M&E but, I wanted more. I want to be in the best shape I’ve ever been in.
M&E was a total game changer for me!
i’m in the best shape now, since having my son.
I look forward to watching this movement grow. I love seeing people happy, and making positive changes in their lifestyles. 
Thank you Melissa and Eddie
You’ve changed my life in so many ways. I will forever be thankful for you both.
Much Love ❤️
