Came in 3rd in Novice light Heavies. I wasn’t in the best shape but i was in the best shape that i could have been in during the timeline i was working with.
I am extremely proud of myself for finishing what I started. I weighed in at 195lbs. that is down 43 lbs in 5 months!
I don’t think i could have asked myself to do more.
So now i have some new goals.
1. Win local event in my class.
2. Win state event in my class.
First things first .. I have been fighting a shoulder injury for some time now. I have having it looked at today. I was in severe pain when performing double bicep and back poses… so before i go stacking on more weigh on this body I have to find out whats going on with the shoulder.
I want to thanks everyone of my well wishers and all that supported me her on BB.com.
I am proof that you can work hard and meet your goals and nothing can stop you.

i must say the carb deplete and carb load process is interesting and fun!
Yes, mon tues and wed were tuff with less than 40g carbs…. and those weight training days ( final workouts to deplete the glycogen stores) where very very hard to finish..
I was spent.. but carb loading thursday was fun! It was interesting watching my body change during the day. I was eating a ton and my weight was dropping. I must admit.. being close to 198 lbs, I was a bit nervous of any weight gain.. but i have lost 3 lbs since tuesday.
The changes are very dramatic and i am sure as i cut my water from 1 gallon thursday to half gallon today, it will dry up even more.
weigh-in are at 6 today… i get tanned at 3:30 and then again at 6:30.
practicing posing is getting very very tiresome… but neccessary.
I am getting nervous…..

I was feeling bad about my look last week. I changed up my diet to include more carbs last week and it helped. I also upped my water to 2 gals /day. I am more lean then last week… but my weight went up a few lbs. ( water ).
I will be ready for the show but i won’t be perfect… but it will be close.

was sitting at 215lbs for 3 weeks… last night 208lbs! at least 10 more lbs. to go to make the light heavies.
no cheating on meals. 40-45 cardio every morning.. and nothing for 3 weeks. boy was that frustrating… but based on BF% calculations.. i was adding muscle at a similar rate i was lowering bf. so i carb loaded over the weekend and it shocked my body enuff to start the fat burning.
