Man I have been eating right and working out hard. I want to look good in my swimsuit this summer and I am bound and determined to get off these last few pounds. I am ready for the nice warm weather. I have a picture of what I want to look like from MD mag and I will look like it within a year or two depending on how soon we have another baby.

I just got back from a great vacation where I went back to Tennessee to see my family and friends. I had a lot of fun. I miss them all but was glad to get back home to my husband.

Well it has been quite a while since I have posted on here. I am still working out and have goals but those goals have changed a bit.
I am still going to be lifting heavy for the next three months but after that I will be changing my style drastically since we have decided to start trying for a baby in July. We are both really looking forward to bringing a new baby into the house. Our son, who is about to be 8, is all about being a big brother.

I am looking into different styles of workouts for pregnancy. I think I will basically increase cardio and go light on my weights but I will not give up free weights. LOL!

I had a great workout tonight. I did hams and low back.

DL- 135×12 for 3 sets

Lying leg curls- 40×12/50×12/65×12

leg curls- 50×12/70×12/90×12

Stiff leg DL- 30×12 for 3 sets

Cardio

Well I was planning on doing the NASA meet in March but I am not sure if I am going to right now or not. I am getting stronger on my DL’s with no problem but not on my bench and I am wanting to do the curl at the next meet also. I am not sure if I am going to have enough time to get to the weight that I would feel proud of lifting. I do not want to go in and match my old records I want to break my old ones and set new. I guess I will have to see how the next few weeks go and decide before the cut off for entry.

So last night I tried to pull 240. It did not happen but this week I will try again and get it. I did pull 225 again so at least I did not go down n weight.    I will be pulling 250 by my next meet. I have already made up my mind.

I have had nothing but good workouts all week. Tonight I pulled 225 again but I did it twice and did not hitch it at all. YAY for me!!!! I will be pulling 250 for my next meet. I was so pumped after lifting that I had to do it twice. Hehe. I love knowing that I am getting strong and can see some nice results in my legs and butt. My back is looking really good too. I can not wait for summer to get here so that I can wear cute dresses and show off my legs.  

Tonight I deadlifted ……….*225*. I hitched it for a second but I got it up! That is all that matters to me. I will work on this weight for my next two deadlift days and then I am going up again.

I am going to get back in the gym on Monday and have another great week.

I also took measurments tonight at about 8:30 p.m. I have not done that in who knows how long. I like what the tape measurer said though. I am just really glad that I am making progress and still keeping my hour glass shape. I think that all women should have a little curv.

So I am going to brag a bit about my guys.
Tonight I came home to flowers and a card from Chas and a bracelet that Austin made for me. The flowers smelled wonderful and the bracelet had snowflake and snowmen charms on it. I have to adjust the size since I think he used his own wrist as a measuring devise. LOL!  I was given the royal treatment. I love it when my guys pamper me. The house was even cleaned up.
He had our song playing and our wedding video in for us to watch. I tell you I have the best husband a girl could ask for. Our son is really great too. I really like all the things he makes me.
Well that is enough bragging for now. I hope that all you other women have men as good as mine.
