6 Weeks Left!

Holy Smokes!

Here I am 6 weeks in 6 weeks out! I have stuck with the diet and the exercise this entire time and have seen some amazing results. Physically I am feeling like a dang rock star... Mentally... I am feeling like... eh...um... I really want a cheese burger....

I think that the hardest thing throughout this whole prep is that I absolutely Love...Love... Love food! We are homies... we are BFFFs... All I think about... dream about is fricking food!

Everything I eat now is to keep me alive... its basic nutrition to keep my body fueled and moving... I have had to get creative with my meals because they are BEYOND boring... what I wouldn't give to have All you Can eat Sushi, a Giant Cheeseburger with a fried egg on top, egg rolls, pie, cake, ice cream, Jalapeno Bagel smothered with spicy cheddar jalapeno cream cheese, Mexican food, french fries, milk shakes, cheese cake, brownies, candy, muffins.... mmmmmmmmmmmm

Stomach just growled wicked loud... it misses is yum yums :-( The thing is... the BEST thing about life is eating...delicious...food! And I feel like all the joy in life has been robbed from me and I want it back right meow!

Okay... pity party over....

I would have to say that this week I have hit the make it or break it point. I could honestly quit right now and never look back if I didn't want this so bad. Before all this I could quit no problem but after investing all the time and effort not to mention the amazing results I couldn't quit right now no matter how bad I wanted to.

I'm in it to win it... and I want to keep competing this summer... so I need to get used to it, which I dont think that I ever will, but I am used to the lifestyle. The 6 meals a day and the crave for that daily burn, even my little one enjoys going to the gym with me every day.

I also have my posing routine down now all I need to do is perfect it. I am excited that it's all coming together, just wish I could fast forward to the end... not that I want to get this all over with but I want to see what my body will look like!

Loving my results and that my abs are starting to show and don't even get me started about my butt and legs... I've been obsessing about the waist down department... looking super hot and toned!

I do have a favor to ask.... Do you know any good ways to do up egg whites? I eat them every day and have run out of ideas for sprucing... :-) I have seen a few online but I want to know what you do to make those egg whites bearable.

I wish you the best of luck this week! Be Fit!

7 Weeks Left!!!

This is all starting to sink in super fast!

You know how when you first start something and it seems like a million years until the end is in sight? That during the first few weeks/months of the process it just feels like you are going through the motions but not really getting anywhere? Then all of a sudden... BOOM... right out of no where and you are half way there, the end is in sight and holy guacamole you friggin did it!

That's how I feel right now.

This whole time I feel like I have been just doing this...doing the work outs... doing the diet... shopping for suites and shoes... but I take a look back to the very very beginning and realize that I have come so far!

I did the diet, the workouts, the shopping and its only 7 weeks until show time!

I posted on my Facebook Page yesterday that I feel like I have already won. I was looking back at some pictures that I took at the beginning of all this and realized how far I have actually come. I got my suit and shoes in the mail yesterday and when I put them on it all became super real. I am really going to compete in a fitness competition. I also said that I was my biggest competition, bigger than anything that I will encounter on that stage and I am giving myself one serious pat on the back!

If you would have asked me this time last year if I ever saw myself competing in a fitness competition I would have probably looked at you like you were from some other planet and then laughed an "uh hell no" and a "what planet are you from" and maybe an "are you crazy? I could never do that"

Well I turned my never's into now's and I am amazed just completely and utterly amazed!

The crazy thing is, is that ANYONE can do this! I never realized until now how many excuses I gave myself to get out of getting in shape... and really all I was doing was not holding myself accountable.

If there is anything that I do not have it would be time. But you know what... if you want it bad enough you will make time. Believe me.... you will find a way.

My days pretty much look like this right now

6am: Wake up
7am: Eat
9am: Take princess to school and go to work
5:30pm: Pick up princess from school
6pm: Go to the gym
8pm: Get home
9pm: Make lunches for the man, me and the princess
9:45pm: Do the dishes and anything else
10pm: finally sit down

*I am in the gym 6 days a week! Monday-Saturday

Its frickin tough but I push through it each and every day. My pay off is when I lift up my shirt and look in the mirror. Your body keeps track of what you do even when you don't keep track yourself... and I am in love with what I am seeing... I think I am borderline narcissistic... not in a bad way but in the way where I have NEVER EVER seen my body look like this before and I cant stop staring at myself!

If you have ever considered or have been interested in competing and you are reading this right now... put down everything and do some research and seriously do it! I have not had one single regret throughout this process and it is been just down right amazing! This is the best thing I have ever done for myself! So excited to see what happens over the next 7 weeks!

7 Weeks Left!!!

I Never Knew Making a Sandwich Would Be So Emotional...

Yes, yes you read that title right... I almost cried last night because I thought I would be the best woman a man could ever have and made Mike the most delicious looking breakfast sandwiches I have ever seen or made... I mean they came out perfectly amazing... and I wanted to eat them ALL! So since I am such an honest blogger I just could not, not, share my pain with all you lovely folks :) This I swear is where you find out what you are made of.... cooking delish food for your man and not getting to eat a single bite! I will get this out of the way quickly...

Okay I am done teasing you! But not eating at least one is some serious will power!

Training today was 30 minutes of really good cardio, I was feeling it the entire time and was super pumped. I think I am going to add 5 extra minutes tomorrow and another 5 each time I do cardio to build myself up. In the last 5 minutes after every minute went by, I upped the intensity a little more and gave it everything I had. I felt AMAZING afterwards! Like a serious winner. I was super sweaty and I had pushed myself... and it felt great. I love the way that cardio makes me feel right afterward. And you get that awesome sweaty glow. I also have my first official after gym selfie :-D

I am happy with the way my arms are coming along :)

I also gave myself a little experiment today and wanted to see how much water I am actually drinking... I have pretty much been assuming that I drink about a gallon a day when actually when I measured it I am drinking close to two gallons of water a day! 

I bought myself a gallon of water and filled up the cup that I reuse for water every day. I was half way through it by 11:30 and totally done by 2. I also drank about another half gallon more. 

Everything about this competition is now starting to sink in. The changes are there and I can tell in my motivation and determination! I am loving, absolutely loving everything about this competition prep! I can't wait to see what my coach has in store for me cause I am ready to rock!!! My mom might even fly to Reno from Arlington WA to come see me! That would be so awesome! I love my mamma she is where I get my love of life. 

9 Weeks Left!!!!
