It just amazes me that how just a few days makes such a difference in your outlook. The other day when I felt like crap from having sinus issues and my period...I wanted to quit and give up and it was all over. Then now, just two days later, I feel like I can accomplish anything! The past three days my eating has been 100% and it makes such a difference. I feel leaner, I feel more alert, happy, and strong. Such a difference. I need to keep up the pace and stay focused and confident.
I really don’t know what is going to happen with regard to the show at the end of June. This Saturday will be 8 weeks out. Im not sure that I will be able to get lean enough in 8 weeks. Im going to play it by ear right now. I have to do pics in two more weeks. If I can stay consistent for the next two weeks and hopefully make some gains and if pics look ok and he says that maybe I can get there, then so be it...but im not going to get all crazy and upset and give up. There are plenty more shows to do. There is one in August in Delaware, then in September in West Chester and I would love to do KY Muscle again in November...so we will see what happens...im not stressing over it. I have a lot of work to do and I need to get a lot leaner so I will just take one day at a time, right?
This morning was back at the gym....I like working back because its one of my stronger muscle groups :)
Im going to spin class tonight at 5:30...cant wait!!!
Im just glad that my head is back on straight....and I will just take it one day at a time :)

one day at a time is all we can do glad your feeling better!
Keep doing what you are doing!!! Baby steps add up to the biggest accomplishments!! What a great record of feelings and accomplishments this blog is for you!!!!!!!!!
Taking a day at a time is almost always the best policy. You never know what can happen from one day to the next and the best plans of mice and men as they say.
So all you should do is just keep steamrolling yourself on ahead, like you have been doing lately, keep taking the intiative and keep making a lot out of all situations, so you can enable yourself to progress better and focus more on what is required.
Nobody has ever doubted what you can acheive, because to see how far you have come in 2 years, shows such a lot of progression.
You're not someone that makes a million and one excuses why you can't even eat properly for one day, so you're not someone who builds a couple of blocks of a wall, then just kicks them down again.
You just sometimes make one or two mistakes in the build process, so a few bits fall off, but you are a pretty dilligent worker at the task in hand, which is why you are where you are today physically.
Happier, healthier and more radient.
The fact you have so many people willing to tell you what they think shows that a lot of people still believe and still understand wat you're trying to do and are going through, because you've always been more than just a talker, you're a pretty good doer as well.
So chin up Angela, big smiles and best foot forward. As long as you continue to be patient and understanding with yourself and remind yourself of what you should and shouldn't be doing, you have all the capabilities needed, to make the end result a good one.
You're doing great and you DO deserve the empathy and understanding people who post here give you. You're a great person and a very good athlete and you can be proud of who you are and the reasons why it makes people want to write good things about you.
Whichever show you do you WILL have a right and deseve to be there.
You have a right to be healthy and strong, especially if it means not having to live with pain and discomfort in 40 years time. So what if you don't throw things or run and jump. Female strength doesn't have to be about that.
GOOD LUCK and just keep that positive impetus of the past few days going. You CAN take and keep control and you CAN be the mistress of your own destiny. Seize the power and keep being good to yourself.
:-) :-).

I'm in the same "ready by end of June" boat as you are. All I can do is keep plugging along. If I'm ready, I'm ready. If not, at least I'll be that much closer to being ready for the next show on the docket.
You should post some pictures in here for us!
lol...sounds like someone I know. (eh hem...)!!!
Glad you are back on track. Getting our heads in the game is half the battle, huh!?
