I’m standing writing this as I dry off my last coat of tan. We did 3 coats over the course of the day. It looks great. Looks like hubby will be holding on to his title of #1 tanner ! Actually the tanning is pain in the butt. But it must be done. I went out this afternoon and everyone thought I had a great tan. This made me laugh ’cause I’m pretty sure it must look fake (Not to mention that my face doesn’t match - it will tomorrow).

This morning, although I was advised not to do any lifting and, yes I know better, I chose to do some more glute bridges. Bad idea as I have really killed my lower back. Don’t know what I did but I’ve been in PAIN all day! It better be gone by tomorrow because I’ll be standing around all day and posing! OUCH! Imma gonna suffer. This is why you must ALWAYS listen to your trainer! Did I really think a few more bridges were going to make a diff? Apparently, yes.

On the positive side, I got to eat some carbs today. Delish. I drank plenty of water up until 4:30 pm. Only sips from now on. I went grocery shopping before supper and picked up pecan pie and chips for tomorrow post-comp! I won’t be home until midnight so wanted to be sure I had treats around.

My lunch box tomorrow will consist of my signature oatmeal/vanilla casein/chopped almonds blend and a few peanut butter and banana sandwiches. I also have 2 Snickers bars. I have to be careful with chocolate and sugar as it usually gives me stomach cramps.

Woo hoo.. That’s it! I’ll get up extra early, have some brekkie and coffee and do my makeup and hair. I am packed and have my checklist of items to not forget. Registration is at 9 a.m. It’s about 30 mins drive from my house. I’m feeling pretty relaxed and tired enough to sleep well.

Time to bring it on …
