Ok, so all of us know to some extent how diet and exercise play a vital role in the success of weight loss and weight management. As exercise is important for your heart, body, and soul: nutrition is the key factor in seeing the results in the mirror and on the scale.

My name is April Slutzky and I’ve always dreamt of competing in figure and fitness competitions. My love for sports and competition began at a very young age and has stayed with me my entire life. The work ethic I developed as a competitive gymnast pushes me to set new goals for myself as a figure competitor. My first competition was the 2008 NPC Maryland State/East Coast Classic where I placed 1st in the Maryland Tall Class Division and 3rd in the East Coast. Having success at my first event is a huge confidence builder and I’m training harder then ever for the upcoming Junior USA Nationals in Charleston, SC. My goal is to hopefully earn my pro card within my first year of competing but, either way, I’m hooked on this sport.

We always fluctuate a few pounds in weight here and there. There’s those good scale days and then the bad ones. But not all of what we’re losing, in those few extra pounds, is fat. It’s more water than anything.
“So how do we lose fat?” Well it sounds simple but it’s true…
