Post Back Workout...



I had a good Back Workout this afternoon...soooo I took a pic when I got home and decided to post it on my blog....

Friday Eve.....


Hello Hello... it's Friday Eve...
I call it that because it's Thursday which is technically Friday Eve because on Thursday it's like Christmas Eve because your so excited that the next day is Christmas well same goes for Thursday your real excited that the next day is Friday so I like to call it Friday Eve....
It's also back day!! I love training back it's one of my favorite things to train, didn't used to be though.
Anyways...my thoughts today are .. well I just don't understand why life has to be so dang complicated right now. I mean my personal life it doesn't have anything to do with training but moreso in my love life area... i'll spare the details... i just get frustrated with the whole love/relationship thing...
apparently I don't have good luck in that area... hopefully things will work thereselves out...
Atleast I still have my friends......
And one of my favorite qoutes...
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail- Ralph Waldo Emerson....

Careless People????


Ok so....
My thought of the day....
Why do people just let thierselves go and not care what they look like or what they put in thier bodies???
I went to the post office today as I do everyday and had to go thru McDonalds, not for ME but for a girl I work with. Anyways.... as I was sitting in line I look behind and in front of me and in both directions there are these overweight people...
It almost made me nauseous, I guess because for the majority of the time I am on such a strict diet and it would only take a little bit of will power for them to change thier lifestyles. I don't mean this in a mean way, I just know that it would help them feel better about themselves.... that's all...
Ok enough of ranting about that...
I'm so excited about next week cause it's THANKSGIVING!!! WAHOO!!!
Gotta try to control myself and not eat too much crap!
Good ol homecooking...
Let's see... I have a lunch dinner at work on Wednesday, 2 dinners on Thurs and 1 that I know of on Friday...
Geezz... that's a lot of eating... oh well that's the Holidays for ya...Thank God it's my offseason!! It'd be hard to watch everyone eat and not me around the Holidays... it's hard enough the rest of the time.
My schedule for tonight is as follows,.. get off at 5 rush to the gym to teach the 5:30 class..... Kick some A$$ in class... then home to eat shower and sleep..that brings me to a funny story an older woman that takes my Monday class came up to me last night grabbed my arm said "your arms are huge" you could beat my husband up... I thought it was freaking hilarious... Anyways... Funny story for the day Ha Ha..
Alright I'm done ranting so far so I'm off for now the pic is of me and my friend Misty.... Later.. Alligator

Pumkin Pumpkin

I'm literally sitting at work just finished up a can of tuna. The people I work with went to McDonalds for McFlurrys. I had to pass though, who wants a McFlurry when you can have a nice shiny can of starkist tuna???? Yeah, whatever I know.
I don't know what is in me but I am literally on the edge of my chair waiting on 5 so I can get to the gym and work my chest!! Wahoo....
Ok well I guess this is gonna be short and sweet cause I gotta head I have 15 minutes till I have to head to the gym..
I'll try to write back soon....

Pics from NC Jr State June 23rd 07

Here's some pics from my first competition June 23rd 07. I'll post more from my most recent competition soon. In this competition I placed 2nd in Bodybuilding and 3rd in Figure.







Post Competition Update


It's exactly 5 days post Carolina Clash 07. I placed 3rd in Figure and 3rd in Bodybuilding. I guess somehow 3 became my lucky # huh?

Anyways, I wish I coulda placed higher but hey I worked my tail off and did my best so now I will just have to try even harder and maybe I'll place higher next time.

I will post some pics later when I have them developed.

I was definitely leaner and tighter than in my first competition.

Oh well so now I'm just gonna focus on a productive off season. I've been eating like a madwoman this week. I look like I have a skin disease but it is nothing more than my protan not wanting to come all the way off. I look blotchy all over :( Oh well......

Oh yeah and by the way my man accomanied me to my competition this weekend. It was really great to have him there for support, we weren't together at my last competition and I must admit I was sad and had wished I wasn't at the competition alone. But hey things happen and sometimes things work out cause he was there for me at this one. I have to watch him he's been known to steal my thunder at times with all his muscle-dang him.

Anyways, I'm happy maybe hopefully things are working out for us now so that's great. He's definitely got my heart. For some reason I just can't let him go. So I'm taking a chance and seeing if it can work this time.

Ok enough of that.. my next competition will be the Metrolina next spring. I will no longer compete in figure just bodybuilding. Bodybuilding is my life now, I am so passionate about it, more so than anything I have ever done in my entire life. I feel like I've accomplished more and grown so much more as a person this year than I ever have in my life. Bodybuilding is the love of my life, everything else just falls into place.

12 days Out Update

That's right!
12 days out. Lets see what's new this week?
I've got a lot of things I have to get done before next week, and make sure that I have everything that I need for the competition. Which I should be ok though.
Todays Agenda?
I'm leaving work at 1 to go to practice posing. Wahoo! I need to practice so bad. I think I've finally decided on a song--shh it's a secret though, I'm not telling anyone what it is just yet. Not that it's like anything super special or anything.
I've got to get to the store because I'm out of chicken-again! I've chowed down on 10 lbs so far this week. Goooshhh. That's alotta danged chicken I know. But anyways, may pick up some salmon and tilapia as well. Girls gotta eat!
Oh and I've got to teach powerpump(a weight training class) at the gym today @ 5:30. I have to think of what I'm gonna do in class today that reminds me. Something challenging GRRR.
Then it's home to shower and prepare meals.
Welp, it's almost 1 I better get the heck of here so I can be practicing my posing.
Cees Ya.

Stressful Week

Well... lets see this is my second post since I've started this blog. It's been a stressful week. I have sooo much on my mind. Today I'm actually trying to "chill" a bit more rather than freaking out every day like I have been.
What's been on my mind?
Well first and foremost the competition. I'm trying to make sure I'm getting everything together and right. Planning the changes and manipulations in my diet over the next couple weeks. I can't wait to compete again. And I am crossing my fingers that I am able to qualify for Nationals. Lets hope so anyways, it would make my year!
Second on my mind, is basically relationship issues. We won't go into details, but let's just say it's been stressful. Men....
Ok so onto a different subject.
This past weekend, I started my morning out with a nice little jog through the neighborhood, it was so pretty outside. So relaxing. I even ran past someones house and caught the smell of bacon, it smelled so yummy. But oh well, it was a breakfast of eggwhites and oatmeal for me. But this is my lifestyle, I wouldn't trade it for the world!-well I might trade it for a big ol piece of chocolate cake. He He... Anyways, point of bringing this up was just that is was so peaceful, running through town, able to clear my head. I love it, it made me feel so good.
Work has went good this week so that's a plus.
Training has been AWESOME, I've started supersetting this week, and will up until the competition. I'm so sore from my chest tri workout the other day. I've also taught two weight training classes at the gym. It's called power pump, they were both such great classes. The women in class were real troopers cause it was pretty tough if I do say so myself. I love teaching classes and big classes, the more people the better.
Anyways, guess I better go for now. I'm out of sugarless gum gotta run to the store and get some more. I'm addicted to gum right now. May pick up some sugarless jello too. J-E-L-L-O. MMM.

3 Weeks Out from Carolina Clash


Well... it's 3 weeks out from the Carolina Clash.
I'm starting to get a bit tired of chicken so today I've ate mostly tuna and tilapia for a change. I'm really getting anxious and really ready to compete again! I've definitely put on a bit more size since the last competition and am trying to lean it out at this point. I'm sure I will dial in just right by competition time. I hope so anyways, but I try to stay as positive as possible. Gotta have faith in myself.
Had a nice encounter with a guy that I work with today, he was eating a fried yes fried chicken sandwich and the most delectable looking fries I have ever seen in my life. My mouth literally dropped open. Oh well, who wants to be "normal" anyways :)
