Hi! Great job at FAME/Miami!!! You were an inspiration to say the least. Three months ago, I almost broke my back coaching at a Soccer Camp. During my rehab./recovery, I gained 20 lbs. and added 11% body fat to my frame. I was bed-ridden for five weeks. I weighed 192 lbs. and had a body fat of 21% on September 1, 2007. The day of the competition in Miami, I weighed 178lbs. and my body fat was 8.1%. Thank you for inspiring me to stay on this course of full recovery!!! By Christmas, my goal is to weigh 185-190lbs. and have a body fat of 5%. Observing your beauty and obvious committment to health and fitness has motivated me even more to become the best I can be. For me FAME was just the beginning of my road to TOTAL SUCCESS! And thank you for letting me take a couple of pictures with you on South Beach. You look and seem amazing!!!! Be well. All my best. God bless... Mark Whalen FAME/Fitness Masters 2nd Place

Melissa has been my personal trainer for years and throughout every work out I felt my body changing and more importantly my mind adapting to the importance of diet and nutrition in my daily life.
Most recently she guided me through a 9 week comprehensive fitness training and diet program that helped me to achieve results I’d never seen before. In fact, I’m so pleased with my progress that I’m now going to be competing in a fitness show this spring.
Melissa will continue to be my trainer, this time a virtual one, as I am currently living overseas. Thanks for everything Missy, you’re one in a million!!!!

Dear Ms Tucker,

I am writing you in regards to a couple of nurses at the hospital who were inspired to begin training and competing after reading a bit about your fitness achievements. As someone who is also involved both personally and professionally in fitness and who also does quite a bit of writing on the subject, I thought it would be a good idea to drop you a quick note of thanks. It's not often that we are able to inspire others, sight unseen.

Thanks again.

Kind Regards,
