It has been a while since I posted any progress pics or wrote a blog. The reason being is that when you have no progress and don’t workout/diet you have nothing to say! Yes I slacked for about 2 months and am paying for it now. I have been hitting the gym hard for about 3 weeks and my diet has been steady. I lost 3 lbs. last week and hope to continue on this path. I am not sure if I will be able to do it but I would like to compete in May. My husband and I are building a new home and will be moving into an apartment at this end of this month. It is going to be a challenge to be consistent but I will do my best.

My motivation is totally in the sh*tter for the last couple of months. Of all the times of the year to lose motivation this is not the best time. I have not worn a bikini once this year. I am so ashamed. I look like a total softee. I am just not even sure why this is happening and not sure how to get out of my funk. I feel like it’s not only affecting my workouts and diet but my life as a whole. It is making me a lazy a$$. I need to be accountable for my actions but am not sure where to go from here.

What happens to the bodyspacers that are super popular for about 6 months and then all the sudden they don’t have a profile? Like amy suds and deborahann??

Noticed that I am getting the horseshoe shape in my tricep…super excited! Upper bod is finally somewhat coming together. Slowly but surely…

I am such a fatty right now. The last time I took progress pics I was pretty pleased. Today I had to take some before pics because I wiill be training with JPhillips and I look like sh*t! I know how quick my body responds to a clean diet and hard exercise but damn how can you look like such a fat @$$ in just 2 weeks time?! All the work I did was just thrown away. Well beginning tomorrow I will definitely be back on my game. No more f’n around!

I went to my husbands Christmas party on Friday night. Usually I have a blast. So this year I thought I have lost five pounds, been eating super clean, haven’t missed a workout and felt fantastic in the black dress I had picked. As the night grew closer, I grew more anxious about wearing the "little black dress". I am always soooo paranoid that I am one of those chics wearing something I shouldn’t be but thinking I look good. You know who I am talking about. The out of shape, bigger girls that want to wear something that a size 5 girl could wear. Anyway, so I grew a pair and wore it anyway. There are women so dressed up at this party. Some even have ballroom gowns so I thoulght I would be fine. Plus I have KILLER shoes! LOL So I get to the party and all of the sudden I saw what my table of women was wearing and I didn’t want to take off my coat. I had a glass of wine and figured scew it, I wore so I am going to show it. So I took off my coat and got up to go the the restroom and one of the chics looks me up and down and just kind of snickers as she is 40 and sitting there with her moo moo looking jacket. I was like WTF? So it made me super self conscious all damn night. I felt like sh*t! I kept going to the restroom and inspecting every part of my body and kept thinking what is wrong with my dress? By the end of the night I was like screw it and I went out there and danced and didn’t give a sh*t. My question is…why do women have to be this way? Why is it always a competition or something? Can’t a women wear something a little sexy and have another women say wow you look great instead of being jealous or judegemental?

I am having issues eating the amount of veggies that I should in a day. I have been trying to consume them 3 times per day and I am not sure how much longer I can keep this up. It may sound very strange but I hate vegetables. I can stomach green beans and asparagus but not 3 times a day! Does anyone have any suggestions as to what supps I can take to make up for what I don’t eat?

Well it is that time of year. I have quite a few parties to attend every year and it’s always a lot of pressure to dress up and look good. I only see most of these people once a year so I really need to stay true to my diet and workouts even though it’s the hardest time of the year to do that! At least it gives me a reason to really try! My goal is to lose 10 pounds by Christmas. Another goal is to finish my ACE books and get certified by Januray 1st. I may be biting more than I can chew but I will give it my best!

It’s official…I measured and my right arm is a 1/4 inch smaller than my left. Sucks…

If you look at my latest avi you can def notice that my left arm is more defined than my right arm. I think that is because my left arm is weaker and has to work so much harder. The problem is that if I raise the weight so that my right arm has a challenge than my left arm just simply cannot hang. What should I do to even them out?
