Hi Everyone,

Thank you for all your support and encouragment during this process.  I placed 4th in this show…which is great considering it was my 2nd show and my first show with Muslemania…..I know where, what and how I can improve on….it was still fun and worth it. 

I had my cheat day yesterday and ate any and everything I wanted.  YUM!!!  Today I back on my diet, and am preparing for my next show 3 weeks away!  I know I’m crazy.  I have to be on my grind, with cardio twice a day 30 minutes in the morning and 45 minutes at night…I’m taking my workouts to another level these next few weeks.

My personal goal is to place 1st.  This show coming up is a pro qualifing show….I set my standards high….I have to keep striving for more.  I’m a little tired and still trying to rehydrate myself a little a time since my body was water depleted….I just don’t want to retain too much water….I’m trying to drop 10 lbs in 3 weeks so I can come in tighter….

Well let me go, I’m going to try to post some pics from the show….they don’t have them up on the website yet…once they do I will send you and update of where to look for them.

Thank you again for the support and wish me luck on show #3.

Hi Everyone!

Sorry I couldn’t blog yesterday….I was in court literally ALL DAY!!  It’s like that sometimes.  Well today I started with my diuretic oh joy; so now I get to make camp in the bathroom in the office…j/k….I’m not nervous yet….my mind is right.

I’m just want to do this and get it over with so I can eat my damn lemon bar!!  I have to start prepping my food for the next couple of days so I can bring it with me.  My new suit is on order for my next show.  I’m going through my mental checklist as I type this blog. I have my spare pair of shoes and suit…you just never know. 

I’m trying to drink all the water I can today because once tomorrow hits, I’ll be rationing out my water….here’s where the diet gets fun!  Anywho, let me go and finish work.  Smooches

Hi Everyone!

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed weekend! Well here it is the week of the show….am I nervous?  Not really….just excited.  I’ve been practicing my posing and I believe I have my walk down packed. I have to bring the sassiness on that stage.  I went shopping yesterday so I have my fridge packed with asparagus and chicken breast.  Oh and plenty of Isopure protein drinks.  I have my food portioned out for the next couple of days.  I’m so happy I decided to take a half day on Thursday…so I can run around and do all that I need to, which leaves me with Friday to basically get pampered, pack and relax. 

I tell you when you are getting all your stuff ready for a show it’s good to start packing the week of so this way you have a chance to make sure you have all that you need. I even have a checklist because you never know what you may forget; especially with the lack of carbs LOL.

Well let me go, I have work to do.  Have great day and ttyl!

HI EVERYONE!  HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

I hope you day is going well thus far….Well next Saturday is show time….I still feel like I could be leaner….I’m never satisfied….I just have to keep in mind that my body will look better and better with each show I do.  I just really want that separation between my quads and hamstrings….Since tomorrow is hamstrings and my last leg workout I have to hit them hard…I’ll be in the gym at 8:00 am.

Guys who compete are so lucky all y’all have to is remove the hair from your body, get tanned, and get your posing trunks…for women, especially if you want to come correct, it’s so arduous…..Hair, manicure, pedicure, tanning, makeup….If I didn’t have a planner to write all of this stuff down I my head would be rolling by now.  I can’t even get all of the stuff done that I want to get done because I have a baby show to go to tomorrow….I’m going to have to cut it short by 2 hours so I can get my stuff done.  I tell you I need a 36 hour day…and/or I’m going to have to invest in a Palm….All in all I’m blessed because I am this busy and I enjoy what I’m doing so I can’t complain.

Well let me go and work….

Good Morning!!! 

I’m a little tired considering I stayed up to watch the debate and watch the Phillies kick A$$!!!!  GO PHILLIES!!!!! Watching one of the most historic presidential debates, worth it, watching the Phillies win fantastic….Running back and forth between 2 rooms trying to watch both programs at the same time….PRICELESS.  LOL

Anywho, I’m sitting here at work drinking my breakfast (chocolate protein shake)….LOL.  Yesterday was my leg day….can I just say I wish my gym had elevators by the time I was finished….surprisingly my legs don’t hurt today…The BCAA’s and Glutamine/Protein Shake I drink during my workout helps tremendously….Today is another no carb day…..I’ll be eating my tuna around 10 this morning.

I’m just counting down the days….this weekend is definitely going to be a rest weekend.  My body is tired and I need to truly rest so I am at my full potential next week.  Anywho, let me go as I have to work.  Have a wonderful, blessed, exciting, and encouraging day!  Smooches!!

Hey Y’all!!!!

I have been M.I.A. for weeks now!  I’m so sorry!  I hope everyone has been great, blessed, and happy.  Ok so here’s what’s been going on with me since my last blog.  Work has been an absolute mad house!!  Basically they gave me more responsibility for the same pay…isn’t that the American way??  It’s all good though, I just handle it with grace and keep it moving.  But I did find the greatest sign that I am putting up at my desk which says, "They pretend to pay me, I pretend to work".  LOL! 

Anywho enough about that, I more excited because my show is next Saturday, FITNESS NEW YORK BABY!!  I’m hyped and ready to compete.  I feel good my body is looking better…it can always look better though….I will be competing at 130-135….which is cool because I was 140 for my last show.  I just want to go and do the damn thing…..I love that rush when I get on stage….It’s funny when I’m on stage it’s a totally different persona….however in my everyday life I’m so humble.  I guess to go struttin’ on the stage in a two piece you have to have a sense of confidence. 

After that show my last show for the year will be OCB Stars and Stripes in Bowie, MD on November 15.  Yep that’s 3 weeks later, so basically I can’t have any down time….Damn that I am going to eat my lemon bar after the show next Saturday….I’ve been wanting one for weeks now.  LOL! 

Supplement update:LADIES……if you want to reduce your body fat more, the best fat burner for us is Lipo 6 Hers!  OMG this is the best!  I like it better than the regular Lipo 6, lean up, and any other fat burner I have ever used….it truly targets our problem areas.  If you use this in conjunction with your workout and diet you will see a total difference……I believe you can only get it at GNC.

Anywho, let me go as work is summoning as we speak…..UGH!!!  At least next week is a short week…I will be sure to update you with pictures from the show……Have a blessed one and be encouraged!
