Flying Pig Race

Okay... I know!  your all thinking "a race?", has home-girl lost her darn mind?  Well, sorta.  Team Fitbody may be competing in a different sort this spring.  A few gals & Julie are thinking of doing the race.  But wait...............................  there's more!  I don't race!!  

Okay, have I lost you guys yet?  Confused?  Lost?  Okay, here is the catch.  The race has another section called Pump and Run.  And for every bench press or curl, you take time off of your 5k.  Up to a max of 15 min.  Woo-hoo!  So that makes this very do-able for me!  

I can see it now....  Team Fitbody running outfits with BLING!!!!  Hell yeah!  You have to keep a little figure chick in everything you do!  lol!

10.5 weeks out!

I'm worried!  Yes, I'm finally admitting it!  Me & the scale are at war again.  

Sunday we had a photo shoot for Team Fitbody.  And while there, I got my body comp done.  Scary!  I'm holding massive amounts of water in my stomach area.  The scale is up too.  But the little rainbow of hope in this whole story is all my other pinches are down.  Hmm!  So...

Julie changed my diet, and I get CARBS!  I know!  gasp!  I almost e-mailed and asked if she sent me the wrong diet!  Then I read down further in the e-mail and she had already anticipated me freaking when I saw it!  lol!  Boy, does she know me or WHAT????  

I also broke down and had some labs drawn & decided to stop taking my BC pill.  While I'm a firm believer in being safe, there is no reason to wear a bike helmet when your not riding a bike, if you get my drift.  So, why fight the hormones?  I want to see if it makes a difference it how I lean out.  I may go back on it in off season.  I'll wait and see.

Sooo.... Thats the plan!

The last couple week, I've been to the Arnold Am, Arnold expo, and then last Sat., I helped Julie with her booth at the NPC Northern KY show.  The team rocked!  10 girls brought home a trophy!  It was sooo inspiring!  I have seen these girls give their all week after week.  And to see them win was awesome!

Hi ho, hi ho, I'm off to the Arnold again!

Okay, I'm nuts!  Most of you already know this, but I thought I would just throw it out there for those that didn't.  

Thursday at work, Stef & I were texting back & forth.  And I was feeling blah that I was going to miss seeing some of my peeps on stage at the Arnold Am (way to go Michelle, Kimberly, Tina & Stacy... you guys rock!!).  Sooo... I came up with a plan to ask work if I could come in late on Friday.  And I would drive to C-bus (Columbus, for you non-Ohioans) and back that night after the show.  So after work on Thur, I rushed home & changed, plastered on some make-up, cause I knew someone would want a group pic.  And out the door I went.  Then I remembered I hadn't brought food!  Oh Darn!

But I did still have my container of Tilapia I had taken to work, but didn't eat.  So I had cold fish, a banana, and a protein bar.  Hey, it wasn't that bad.  And the sacrifice was worth it.

I'll post pics soon.  I'm diving back to C-bus tonight to pick my BFF from the airport, crash at her house tonight, then hit the expo in the morning!  Talk about loving the samples!  I also want to pick up Gina Aliotti's new DVD.  

13 weeks out OCB Circle City...

Well, on a good note, I thought I was 12 weeks out until I read April's post this morning on the Diva thread. mentioning we were 13 weeks.  Woo-hoo!  I have an extra week!

I know where I want to be physique wise by the show.  I CAN do.  I just need to do the work.  Cardio & clean diet!!!

The Comp Prep camp was awesome, by the way.  My posing is getting better, each time.  Physique needs works.  More muscle is always a plus, but I have gained some this off season.  The WOs at the camp, weren't near as bad this time around.  Why?  Because I'm stronger and it's getting easier to hang in there.  When you can DO something you dread it less.  If I get pictures of the camp, I'll post them.

Hi!!!  To all the great gals I got to meet this weekend!  You guys keep me going!

I want a trophy!!

 <------------I want to bring this home!!!

This weekend is our next team meeting, and the gal with the biggest weight loss will bring home a jug of UMP.  Yes it would be nice to win free protein powder, but its more than that.  I NEED to win this for me!  A trophy of sorts.  

At the last meeting I had a crappy weigh in.  And at the meeting I watched two other team mates take home their "trophy".  And I was happy for them.  But this time I want to be happy for me.

So thats why, even though I feel like a$$ and am exhausted, I'm going to truck my bottom up stairs and do my cardio.  I will push through.  I have a show in 13 weeks!!!!!!  

Plurk

Okay... I kept hearing about plurk and finally took the plunge and joined.  So If you take a little look over here --------------------------->

You can see a widget from plurk, thats kinda like a quickie diary of what your up too.  Which is nice, cause I don't always have enough to say to actually make a blogger post.  I'm also gonna use it to post my workouts and such for accountability.

Tell me ALL about it!
