Motivation is the key to success right? Welll my header is my new motivation :) These women are a direct result of dedication, consistance and persistance....which is what i need.....i have no consistancy in my diet right now...and its hurting me.
Instead of looking at this time as a basis to improve and grow and work on what i need to for next year, here i am, eating pretty good...not perfect....and slipping into the "ive got plenty of time" mentality again! Skipping on the cardio...picking on things i shouldn't....all because i think i can....when really i should be more strict in order to make the changes that i want!
I have a lot of body changes to make.....which is going to take a lot of work....i need to get back into the groove!
I cannot have an "off-season" I have to be in constant control of my workouts/nutrition. If this is what i want to do...i need to realize what needs to be done....i always have an excuse....and im not going to change and get better if i keep making excuses.
This is my life...and if this is a goal of mine....i need to put in the time and the work...that is all there is to it. No one is making me do this....I want this....and i will not get back on that stage again if i dont look like i belong on that stage. And i will look like i belong ;)
So this is my new look....and i am going to have one too.....yes, it will take time....but with time, the look that i need to belong up there will come as well.
I know i can do this.....if i just believe that i can...and that will probably be one of the most difficult parts of it all....believing in myself. Believing that i can do this!!! That i can push myself to get to a place where i have never reached before....I want Top 5....i want to be lean, tight, strong, ready....i want to be able to be proud of myself and know that i gave 110% all the time with no regrets.
So with that being said....i am going to try and post more.....my workouts, my food...i need to hold myself accountable for all to see :)
I need that structure....i need that focus....without it, i have nothing to strive for....i need goals.
I am waiting for the new NPC schedule to come out....i already have my first show picked out....yes...it is the show that i have been trying to do now for 2 years......the Tracey Greenwood Classic....its in Philly for God's sake! No travel, i can go home in between...its perfect! I have let myself down too many times.....i wont do it again....so i will be on that stage in June....it will be a week after my 38th birthday (yes im old)...but it will be my birthday gift to myself :) What a better gift than taking home a little figure girl :)

You CAN do this!! And yes, what a perfect gift to yourself!! Its hard- especially this time of year, to not get distracted and say there's plenty of time. Really and truly, each day counts. You can't undo anything, you can only build on what can be done today. You can do this. You can!! :)
WOW! That is definitely some motivation, I love it! If you are a visual person, I would post pics like that in lots of places, to be a constant reminder for you of your goals and why you want to do this for you! BTW, I think you look so young, especially in person!
You go girl! I just found this great quote, "Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion, you must set yourself on fire first."
Good for you! And I'm gonna come and see you compete!! How about that???
awesome goals angela im glad your spirits are up :) and im loving your blog!!!
I'll be cheering for you Angela! You CAN do this!!!
I'm currently training for the Disney Princess 1/2 marathon! You can cyber cheer for me too!!! :) Putting your eats out there does help keep you accountable, and shows you too what your lacking as far as variety, nutrients, etc.. I've really enjoyed tracking my eats on my blog!

Trust me, you can be proud of yourself now.
Just look at what you've achieved physically in the last 2 years. There is more that can be done and if I'd ever thought you couldn't do it and would just cave in and give up at some point, I would never had invested the time I have, into reading and commenting on your blog, but certainly I believe in you and will, as long as you keep beleiving in yourself.
GOOD LUCK.
:-) :-).
