Alight3’s BodyBlog

Well, I am very excited today!  I just got a sponsorship with Black China Labs.  I am more motivated than ever now to be part of a team.  I will be competing in more figure shows next year, so I will be posting my contest progress.  It will be much easier not to pig out on Halloween candy tonight with this extra boost of motivation.  Thanks BCL.

Well, I participated in my first figure contest.  I got 5th place.  I was happy to get in the top 5 for my first show.  Overall, it was a great experience.  All of the girls were so nice!  Other than being sore and tired it was so much fun, I can’t wait to do it again. 

Now It’s time for me to try and put on a few lbs. for next year.  I plan do do another show in April or May. 

6 days, only 6 days left!  I can’t wait.  I have lost 5 lbs. this week, I really hope it’s not muscle.  I weigh 115 lbs.  Kinda Small, I am 5′-8".  I am thinking I look a bit deflated right now, I am cutting carbs.  On wednesday, I will start loading carbs.  (I would kill for some oatmeal or brown rice right now!)  Hopefully, I will fill out a bit.  I’m kinda worried because I have never done this before.  I don’t know what my body is going to do, and I have worked so hard.  I hope it all works!!! 

Ok so today I am feeling so much better!  I finally got a decent night’s sleep.  I feel refreshed.  I think I am in Ketosis now, so I am really relieved.  I actually lost a couple of lbs.  I am always the same weight.  ALWAYS no matter what, it’s wierd.  So it was kinda exciting when I weighed myself.  As long as I am not loosing muscle!  I can’t wait to carb up!!!  I am starting to get really excited!

Only 9 more grueling days left.  I have never been so tired in my life!  I can barely move, I feel like it is taking everything I have not to cry.  My moods have been so crazy.  The closest thing I can compare competing to is pregnancy.  I haven’t been sleeping well, but I am so tired.  I am having crazy dreams, and I keep waking up because my arms keep falling asleep.  This sucks, at least it does right now. Ask me in an hour and I’ll say I’m fine everythings great.  I am not even worried about the actual competition anymore, I just want to be able to eat normal again.  However, I do like the shape I am in, and I probably will do it again.
