Boca Raton, FL,March 01, 2011 -(PR.com) Who hasn`t watched the Olympics and wished they could be like those athletes? It`s something that Tamara Savage, 57, of Boca Raton, FL, never expected to accomplish. But thanks to a firm purpose to reach her goals - and the BodyLogicMD program - she has been named the Athlete of the Month for January 2011 by the National Senior Games Association (NSGA).
Savage`s results in the Florida State Senior Games last month were what brought the care of the NSGA. She won 4 gold medals in cycling in the women`s 55-59 age group, winning the 5k and 10k time trials and the 20k and 40k road races. She even set a book for her age group, beating the old time for the 5k time trial by 9 seconds. She realized the test in 8 minutes, 27.485 seconds.
Savage hasn`t always been an athlete. She started smoking at age 16 and topped off her 5`2" frame at her heaviest weight - 235 pounds. But in 2002, at the age of 48, Savage decided to get fit by 50. She stopped smoking, dropped 100 pounds and started participating in marathons. By the time Tamara turned 50, she had completed her destination and illustrious by working a 100-mile ultra-marathon in the Phoenix desert.
She attributes her success to the bear she has received from her coaches, friends, mentors, and BodyLogicMD. "BodyLogicMD has been there since about the beginning," Savage shares. "I`m probably one of the 1st 10 or 15 patients that came on board. In gain to quitting smoking and stressful to suffer the weight, I wanted to pay my body the better chance it could perhaps have at being healthy."
"I`ve been on a curriculum that consists of all natural bioidentical hormones and a quality supplement regime since 2003," says Savage. "Becoming a patient of BodyLogicMD was one of those monumental steps in changing my life." And she`s still a patient today. Now that she lives in Boca Raton, Tamara is a patient of Dr. Jeffrey Thackrey of BodyLogicMD of Fort Lauderdale. "He`s a smart physician," Savage says, "and a terrific person as well."
Dr. Thackrey applauds Tamara`s accomplishments. "Tamara`s story is inspirational," he says. "She`s an outstanding representative of how far someone can occur in achieving their health and wellness goals."
Savage`s journey isn`t complete yet. BodyLogicMD is sponsoring her involvement in the National Senior Games in Houston, Texas in June, 2011. "I`m thrilled," she says. "I`m going to go to the procession and remain in the settlement and do everything that I`ve seen them do in the Olympics and only dreamed of." And Dr. Thackrey is activated about the sponsorship, as well. "Tamara is a perfect candidate for BodyLogicMD to sponsor," he says.
She hopes that she can inspire others to reach their own goals in the saame way that so many others have inspired her. "That`s what it`s about," says Savage. "It`s about enjoying what you`re doing, enjoying the people you`re doing it with, and if you can help somebody take one measure in the correct direction, then that`s great, too. And you know, that`s the subject of BodyLogicMD. They help women and men have a better life - better living - through bioidentical hormones, nutrition and fitness."
