Hey everybody! After 3 years of engagement, Jamie and I finally decided to tie the knot. We returned on Saturday from Jamaica, where we spent 9 days and got married on the beach.
This was exactly what we both needed. In the four years that we've been together we had never been on vacation together. Our previous "vacations" had been three-day weekends travelling to compete in shows.
I took a pretty big break from my normal life during this time and I really needed it. I tried to be "normal" for a little while. I ate three meals per day and a couple of small snacks. Lots of liquor was consumed daily and I trained for a total of about 30 minutes over the entire trip. No supplements of any kind.
Jamie had to play things a little safer as she's beginning to prep for the spring season. She did cardio daily and got some training in, but was still able to relax on the diet a little bit and have some drinks as well.
Our resort was beautiful and relaxing, one of the highlights was a small island out in the water that a little boat would take you out to. There was a pool and a bar on the island, and plenty of space for sunbathing, the only requirement for being there was that you had to be nude. We spent quite a bit of time there, feeling amazingly free and having a great time.
It was a great trip, and very hard to leave 85 degree sunshine to head back to New England. But now it's back to action for both of us, both in bodybuilding as well as our full-time jobs.
It feels absolutely amazing to be married to the woman of my dreams and I'm very excited about our future together. Here are some pics from the trip, we thought you might enjoy seeing them.
