Enjoy the Ride!

Hello World!

Good Grief! It has been a whirlwind week!

Okay, first and most importantly, tributes to my newest sponsors!

Rakett Brothers Lawn and Weed, specifically Wayne Rakett!

Wayne is in incredible person.  I was fortunate to meet this inspiring individual on my journey to compete in the Total Package Fitness Competition back in September.  Wayne worked very hard and won 2nd place in the Men's division of the same Hot Body Fitness Modeling Contest I competed in.  He also placed very high in the bodybuilding divisions he competed in, winning the masters division.


One great thing about Wayne is that he has confidence and therefore...SWAAGGGGG!!! 

Another is that he is a hard worker (clearly!) and I know that that hard work is reflected by Rakett Brothers Lawn and Weed, Inc.  Call these trustworthy guys for your next landscaping venture! 


Thanks Wayne and Julie! :)

Another new member of the sponsor team is Total Fence Solutions, LLC. in OKC! My new friend Jim was kind enough to contribute to my cause so I am very happy to promote for his superior fencing services in OKC! Licensed, Insured, and Bonded, Total Fence Solutions can help you with virtually any fencing project you face including

And lastly, Aspen Athletic Club!!! Woot woot! Can I get a heyy yaaaahhh for the home team?!?! I specifically represent the Aspen located on Rockwell and Northwest Expressway in OKC.  This establishment holds a special place in my heart because it is truly where my dreams began to take flight! I  have found such rich encouragement and support among my fellow trainers and the rest of the staff at Aspen, I consider them all my second family!!! 

This sense of family has been instrumental in my fitness success and will continue to be there while I chase my dreams! Support like that is essential in taking those steps towards a healthy lifestyle, and I am so grateful to be a part of such a encouraging group and business.  Thank you Rob, Caithlin, Mark, Sheron, trainers Darrell, J Nev, Drew, Sam, Drew, Travis, Mallory, Donita, other employees Brittany, Joey, Gabe, Henry and everyone else not mentioned (there are a lot!!!) that have given my the confidence and opportunity to come as far as I have, as well as giving every single member of this revolutionary gym the great gift of fitness daily! 

With some of my awesome Aspen Family, on our Think Pink
Day to fundraise for Breast Cancer Awareness!

Go ahead "Luv Ur Body!" And don't forget to tell them Brittany sent you ;)

So today was my LIVE Television debut!!! Omgosh so much fun, I am so grateful to the wonderful producer, Kelie Steele for imparting upon me this experience.

Last night, I did not sleep a wink I was so excited!!! Probably not the best idea before a morning interview, but I did my best, lying in bed trying! (Got to work on that before the pageant FO SHO :) 

A testament to the fact that we rely on technology a liiiittle too much these days, my gps took me down a road that didn't exist on the way to the studio this morning! I got so turned around I actually was a little late to my 7:30 am appointment even though I left 30 minutes early!!! Luckily, Kelie and the rest of the staff was so understanding, so again thank you!

When I arrived I was ushered into the studio and told I'd be on in less than five! Yikes! I actually had no makeup on and had just finished drying my hair because for some silly reason I thought it would be done or would be given a little prep time in studio.  I probably should have asked Kelie about this earlier, but I was too consumed with the opportunity to get my platform on air to reach people than aesthetic details! I know for next time, right Kelie?! ;) 

Right before going on, I was introduced to the morning news anchors, Matt Austin and Angie Mock.  These are a couple of incredible devoted, hardworking individuals as they host the 3 hour in-depth Fox 25 Morning Show every day! Wow!

I was interviewed by Angie, who is as stunningly beautiful in-person as she is on the tube! She eased my nerves greatly, and I went from shaking at the beginning of the interview, (give me a break, first time LIVE!) to feeling like I was just having a friendly chat with her on a couch.  We talked a little about my personal journey to a healthier lifestyle, what that exactly entailed as well as a little bit about the pageant and my working to build a strong sponsor team to compete! If I am lucky enough to win the prestigious title of Miss Oklahoma USA 2011, I want to continue reaching more and more individuals and hopefully inspire them to achieve their own fitness goals! The full interview can be viewed at the link below.

THANK YOU to all of Fox 25 for this incredible experience! If you are interested in joining the Miss Greater OKC USA 2011 Sponsor Team, please feel free to contact via the site, Facebook, or my business email britttL@hotmail.com.  Thanks Again, Kelie!



Afterwards, caught up on some SLEEP (hence the fact that I am still awake now! LOL) and had the opportunity of reunion with a bunch of old friends and teammates at the SNU vs. OBU volleyball game. I got to go with a fellow former SNU athletes, a couple of my favorite Chris's, one of whom will be abandoning us for New Mexico in a couple weeks! (Just Kidding!) The Bisons took it in 4 tonight, but both teams looked great and it was so good to see and catch up with everybody.  Good luck to both squads in the remainder of their seasons :) 

That's all for now...I am on a weird sleep schedule due to my sleepless night last night! I hope everyone has a Happy, and SAFE Halloween!!! Or in other words...

Halloween, have a HAPPY one you must!


Chose my favorite Geek-O-Lantern of all time because the all knowing Yoda is the source of my weekly quote of inspiration!

"Do or do not, there is no Try."

Okie Dokie! 28 days means Crunch Time...Let's DOOOOO IT!!!!!!!!!!
