To: Wendy IdaCongratulation on your victory I tell your win was really inspirational in so many ways. Keep doing your thing, she a brick houseeeeeeeeeee. LOL. Well anyway to get to the point i wanted to know did you have any fitness videos? Currently i am around 185. My desire weight is 165-160, a nice ass, and to lose some of the boobs, but it seem so hard to lose 25 pounds i really don’t get it, so i need your help. I am a college student writing you from upstate New York so i do not have the finance to have you personally train me, not yet anyway, I suppose when i make it to the big leagues, unless your feeling generation, yet I am praying you can give me some advice on what to eat and what not to eat and some workout routines as well. Pray all is well for you and yours, Hope to hear from you soon, Blessings!!!

You are absolutely inspirational. You do not look anything near 50. I read about your success on a women’s messageboard that I belong to. Your commitment to your health and physique are very inspirational and motivational.
I am only 29, and I lift weights, but I want to look like you in 20 years. I know that it takes hard work and dedication and I am delighted to have read your story.
All the best
Nana

To: Wendy IdaHi Wendy, congrats on winning the fitness competition! You are one of my fitness inspirations. I showed your pictures to my husband and he’s usually good at guessing someone’s age. I asked him how old he thought you were and he said 40! Black don’t crack! You’re making women of all ages step their game up. Again congrats!
May All That You Do Be Abundantly Blessed,
Kassandra

To: Wendy IdaMs. Ida,
I saw your picture in a local paper here in Charleston, SC it talked about your recent win in the 2009 NPC bodybuilding championship. Congratulations on that wonderful and very impressive accomplishment. Saying I was impressed is so much of an understatement and when I read that you really didn’t get involved in working out until you were over the age of 40 just blew me away. I also read that your interest also is in helping women also 40 and above achieve their health fitness goals. That is my reason for writing I would like to hear more from you about how I could enhance my fitness level.Mozell

To: Wendy IdaHi Wendy,
First let me congratulate you on a terrific body. Saw your article in one of our home papers. By the way I live in Charleston, South Carolina. I am impress with you because of your age. I myself would love to have a body that looks as half as good as yours, any suggestions? I am a 54 years old, 5″3 with 215 pounds of fat. Try all types of diet for the last tens of years, lose a little and gained a lot. Any advice or information would be helpful.Thanking You In Advance,
Brenda

“I am a 52 year old who is currently overweight and experiencing a few health challenges. However, I have always had a life-long desire to not only lose weight but reshape my body, bodybuild and be healthy. I saw your website and announcement of your recent competition win and was greatly inspired (once again) to get it together. If there is anyway that I can speak with you, please let me know. I believe that seeing this information at this time in my life is an answer to prayer. Have a wonderful and blessed day!”

“I was just reading about you on the web and I must say I’m impressed. God-Luck and God-Bless! Keep up the good work, I have been working out all of my life (I stop about 15 years ago and have been off and on) and I just got back in the gym 4 months ago and I have lost about 80 pounds, and I’m 45 years old. It get strong and I build muscle fast; but I also can gain weight fast. I am still a work in progress, I just met a man that was 60 who was a professional bodybuilder; he look so good and that is such a motivation, like you are!!!!!”
