IT'S ALMOST FALL time..even if we don't get the all the pretty foliage..I still love TEXAS! |

Greetings!
I hope you have enjoyed a fabulous summer so far! Even with the record breaking temperatures here in Austin, I have had a
great summer! I know we still have a few weeks left but with the Olympia prep the rest of my summer just isn't the same. We are now down to the last 5.5 weeks before walking on the stage again.. can you believe this will be my 11th Olympia stage
appearance.. and 15th time just to work the expo!
In case you are wondering, after Prejudging on Friday and for a few hours Saturday morning, I'll be working at the BNRG booth.
Please come by, say hello and let's update photos together!
Speaking of competitions.. right before the AC 09 (in FEB) I did a photo shoot with local Austinite photographer,
Brian Fitzsimmons. There are a few of the photos below and I'll be updating the Fan Club soon with more images from this
particular shoot!
(Need to also make note of the beautiful necklace I have on from Elizabeth Dwelle collection)
Photos by Brian Fitzsimmons
Something else that might be of interest to you.. Scottie and I have been enjoying some egg whites
from Egg Whites International. If you decide to order some, be sure to let them know I sent ya! They cook up so fast.. makes
breakfast even easier.. or any meal for that matter.. if you have ever dieted you know breakfast can come anytime of the day!
In fact here's one of my favorite recipes that I like to call 'Healthy Poridge'- recipe will be just enough for my serving size:
-Medium saucepan heat 1 cup water to boil with 1/2 cup Old Fashioned Oats
-Stir and reduce heat to medium, keep stirring oats and add 1 cup of the egg whites I mentioned above
-Continue stirring oats/whites till all cooked.. you will know when it is done.. doesn't take long
-Allow to cool a bit before adding 1 scoop of Vanilla Creme Proto Whey
-Optional: add shaved almonds for healthy fats
-I like this meal cold so I make it either in the morning before I head out or the night before and put in the fridge
YUMMY! Great for dieting.. even the Olympia dieting!
One more thing.. for all of you that have been asking for it.. I want to mention that I now have this photo available to purchase
as an 8x10--via my 'Secure' MALL.

| Weight Loss -An Amazing Story |
 |
I received an email (below) from my F.E.M. Camp web designer today and felt I had to share with all of you!
"I'm writing because I really need your support and to share some news about a challenge I recently accepted, as well as a charity project I'm helping out with. This year my weight loss story was selected by Bill Phillips (Former CEO of EAS and writer of Body For Life) and AIRED ON TV!
This October , I have been given an amazing opportunity to share my weight loss story to many at Bill's Transformation Seminar in Denver Colorado and run in the Denver ½ Marathon with his Transformation team to raise funds for Make-A-Wish Foundation. With your pledge you will help in making a child's wish come true!!!

DVD 29 highlights Mo's training at CATZ Sports on a hot July afternoon in Texas!
You'll see some new and different types of exercises and games and you'll find out if Mo can keep up with her training partner who happens to be an ultra marathoner.
I (Scott York) believe that I heard that he jogs/runs a marathon a day for FIVE days during a ultra marathon competition.
DVD 29 also has a photo shoot with Mo in celebration of her nomination as one of
Austin's Fittest People for the year!
We wrap up this episode with a back workout with Monica and NPC competitor, Dawn Hinz.
Dawn is only weeks out from her show.
All of this and more in DVD 29!
Shot in Austin, Texas in July 2009 Running time: approximately 60 minutes

Subject: Re: Posing Testimony--
Hi Mo!
I can't thank you enough for the guidance you have given me in the last few months to prepare for the three shows I competed in this year. Specifically, my posing vastly improved from last year and I owe that to you! Thanks for helping me to improve my stage presence and confidence. Also, the new exercises/techniques you shared with me have definitely helped me to take my training to the next level, while also ensuring that I place more focus on injury prevention so that I keep my joints healthy for years to come. Most of all, thanks for being you! You are an amazing role model for so many women, and I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with you. You are the epitome of a strong women both physically and mentally, and I wish you success in all that you do personally and professionally!
Love, Dawn Hinz | |

_____________________________________________________________________________ As in the past I like to pass on interesting things.. this month is no different. I have been reading a very intense
book called Unleashing the Beast by Perry Stone. If you are interested in any 'End of Times' info, this is a
good read. Did I say Intense? I do like the fact that it is based on scriptures and quotes scripture at every
point made.
You'll have to read when you can fully pay attention and have an open mind and heart. If anything, it is an
eye opener into the Islamic/Muslim history .. one that I knew very little about.
Here is a link to the book should you be curious.. ENDTIMES_

Save on ISSA PT-Certification Courses
$100.00-$250.00 |
ISSA's premier Personal Trainer Certification course has been designed to prepare you for a
rewarding fitness career. If you enjoy staying in shape and helping others, there has never been a
better time to earn your PERSONAL TRAINER CERT. Countless medical and scientific studies have
proven that the most important factors to change the current health crisis are increased activity,
weight training, aerobic conditioning, flexibility and proper nutrition.
Plus...ISSA is very proud to announce that we are the first fitness organization to earn national
accreditation from a federally recognized accrediting agency!
The ISSA is now accredited by the Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and
Training Council (DETC)--the standard-setting agency for distance education institutions.
For a link to the DETC site, click HERE.
The United States Department of Education lists the Accrediting Commission
of the DETC as a nationally recognized accrediting agency. The Secretary of
Education is required by law to publish a list of nationally recognized accrediting
agencies. These agencies have been determined by the Secretary to reliably
evaluate the quality of education provided by institutions of higher education.
DETC is on this list. NCCA
(the accreditation that other fitness organizations have chosen) is not.
To view the CHEA site, click HERE:
The Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) also recognizes the
Accrediting Commission of the DETC. CHEA is a private nonprofit national
organization that coordinates accreditation activity in the United States.
Recognition by CHEA affirms that the standards and processes of accrediting organizations are consistent with the quality, improvement, and accountability expectations of the CHEA. As with the US Department of Education, DETC
accreditation meets these standards; NCCA accreditation does not qualify.
If you have a passion for helping others and are looking for the most
comprehensive, nationally accredited fitness educational programs, we invite
you to join over 120,000 people worldwide who have chosen the ISSA.
You'll understand why--since 1988--ISSA has been and continues to be
the World Leader in Fitness Education.
