Soooooo, it’s been forever since I was on here.  I was EXTREMELY burnt out and actually did less lifting and more running for awhile.  I still teach classes but now I’ve got some real goal once again.  10K at end of Dec and 2 contest for next yr.  I’m pretty disappointed with myself but I know everyone hits that point sometime.  After training for 17yrs off and on, this is the most burnt out I had been.  I will be posting progress pics soon and hopefully I can lean out by early next yr

I am cleansing my body for the next couple of weeks and easing back into my intensity.  I’m drinking a lot more green tea mixtures and am just getting my head together.  My workout partner took a job in Iowa, so it’s kinda good that I’ll be training myself.  She’s given me some good motivation.  My husband is out of town so much, that if anyone, he would be my partner.  He’s very supportive and is very proud of me.  I just need to be proud of myself and know that I can do very well if I want to

ok…this girl is kickin my booty!!  She has such a great mindset, I’m excited to be working out with her.  I’ve had a few partners in the past and they help but not really.  She pushes me and she wants to succeed as well. I’m still shooting on the 3 months though I really need to pull my head out and get up to do cardio.  My knee has felt great since july and I love my jump rope.  No reason I can’t do my power yoga and jump rope early in the morning.  I know damn well that I feel so much better when I do.

working on some specific goals for Jan and Feb of next yr.  There is no doubt that I’ve put on muscle, and im back on Kre-ex.  I now have a great female lifting partner who is as intense as I am.  I’m hoping yet again to blow all of my plateaus out of the water and drop a little BF%  I’ve been holding at 150 since July and higher on BF but I’m working on that.  The holidays aren’t getting in my way and I’m gonna train balls to the wall for the next 3 months

started dillegently keeping track of calories and what they were coming from  143.2 is my weight and the muffin tops must go, I miss my beautiful abs and behind LOL.  Jump rope class tonight and then church so we will eat a healthy dinner.  I will post off season pics soon. I will come back tonight and put down calorie intake as well as macronutrients

had a busy week. Fiance now husband got home with B-day party for my daugter and then his parents came to visit from CA.  Great people we had fun.  Now it’s time to get conditioned and get a little bit of abs showing and get my booty under control.  I plan on doing cardio on my lunch and lifting higher reps tonight for some endurance

still haven’t trained arms.  Since the change in my step-son’s daycare I have to rush home instead of staying to workout.  I know I could make a lot of excuses but it’s very frustrating when my daughter is home from school and there is no one else to help right now.  I feel fat like a lot of girls that lift feel when they can’t get in consistantly.  I need to start cooking all of my meals as if I was getting ready for a contest.  And we still have those pics to look forward to,   So of course we can’t be pot bellied pigs LOL

I’ll be training arms today and doing cardio tonight after I pick up my step son.  I didn’t drink as much water this weekend so my weight is a little up but ya know.  Just waiting for my fiance’ to get back into town from working. They are building an ethanol plant in TX so he’s been gone for 3 weeks already.  We are getting married when he gets back but having the ceremony in May as planned.  Just trying to stay busy
