Another work week done....time just goes...i went to the new gym 2xs this week and Bally's the other three days....as much as i hate bally's, im comfortable there...i know where im going..i know most of the people there in the morning, i have my locker, my stuff, etc....its more routine for me there....even though this morning it was more busy than usual...but i guess that is normal since its January...they will be gone soon enough.

Tomorrow marks 23 weeks out.  I just need to focus on my goal.  That is all there is to it right?  FOCUS....


I came across a great line on some blog i forget now....LOL!


"Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure"

I guess i could relate to that....even though i have tried and i have accomplished my previous goals of getting on that stage.....but now the goals have changed a bit.....i want to belong up there....not just get up there...there is a difference...and i have the time to make a difference in my appearance...so i must do it...no one else can get me there besides me...my trainer can only give me the tools to get there.  He can tell me what to do, what to eat, etc...it is up to me to do the right thing and then to go that extra mile...to push myself to do more when i dont want to.  Its all up to me. 

How bad do i want it?  How hard am i willing to work to get it? 

That my friends, is all up to me....and i have to dig deep for this one....because i want it!!!

You can be whatever you want to be, as long as you keep believing.

Good luck.

Angela,
Your well on your way, keep the focus and the vision. Play it in your head over and over that you own that stage....and YOU will.

YOU do want it bad! So go for it.......

I think you'll be fine, just don't think "I have to look good in 23 weeks" just concentrate on looking how you want forever. None of this "eat whatever you want" after the show type of thing. Take it from me. That's what I did after my second show and I'm just now happy with the way I look. I've gained a ton of muscle (I'm going to start posting progress pictures on my new blog too) but I really think you're going to be fine just as long as you don't worry about being lean for a show. Just try to feel good and not have to look like Gina in 23 weeks. It's almost like the pressure does not help. It doesn't me, that's for sure. Once I started just focusing on doing things at a slower pace and realistic rate...I've not lots better!

You can do anything you want girl. Just focus on ONE day at a time. Personally, I think when you divide a big goal up into a lot of little ones, it's much more attainable/doable. ;-)

I'm going to agree with Kelly, it's difficult to have a goal that's far away, but if you have little goals you'll stay motivated. I'm like that myself.

I just got wrapped up in the, "looking good just for the show" bit and not realizing that I need to look good all year to look great on stage.

Well I know you don't want to look good just for the show. I know how hard you work and the ridicule you get for eating healthy. You are doing a great job and you're still WAY under 130 so you're doing something right :)
