The Kitty Gato’s BodyBlog

It has been a while since I have written a post, so I thought I would do a brief update.

As of tomorrow I am 9 weeks out..time really does fly..I wish I were 14 weeks out still!!! 9 Weeks seems like such little time. Anyway….so far this journey towards my second figure competition has been easier and better than last time, probably because I am more conditioned and know what to expect..and I didn’t really take too much time off season and didn’t do anything stupid and splurge. My diet has been super easy (knock on wood) as far as the cravings go and such. Don’t get me wrong I am constantly hungry but I don’t crave bad foods, I just crave more of what I am eating. Now that I know the routine of cooking, preparing, and getting my food all packed for the next day, it makes things alot easier. I cook all my meals on Sundays and Wednesday, throw them in containers and then they night before measure and weigh it all out so I am good to go the next morning. It also helps that I am really busy with two jobs. I work at my day job from 6-2 then my night job from 4-11pm so I am never really home or anywhere that I can snack or splurge or have any temptation, I have the food that I pack for my whole day and I am good.

Now for training, it’s always great!! I have never had a problem there…I do get sick of the cardio, but I bought myself a video IPOD and have downloaded all seasons of the Family Guy..so it gets me through cardio pretty quick.

I ordered my suit already and just waiting for it to be done. I decided to go with a dark fuschia this time around. I was leaning toward tangerine or a coral color but when I got the swatches none of them really stood out to me…I think i will be happy with the fuschia color anyway. I plan on keeping the fushia low lights in the underneath part of my hair so I think it will compliment it nicely.

Each week I am happy with my results..I am getting leaner by the week!! My weight really hasn’t dropped which is good because I am keeping my lean muscle mass..but my clothes are not fitting LOL..my pants fall off me. I also love all the new definition showing through and all the veins..I have some new ones that are in my chest..cracks me up. My shoulder veins use to come out just when I work out, now they are just a permanent fixture

I met another girl doing the competition in my height class, she has done many NPC comps and out of show states as well. She told my guy friend the other day that she was scared of me…just being her competition and all..made me feel good about myself She is the same bodyfat as me right now..so now I have an excuse to work harder so I can win this show.

Other than that I am on track and feeling good, we will see how the next few weeks go. Keep watching for my progress pics, I usually post them weekly.
