Where can I start?
I can start off with a Happy New Years! Im only 9 days late…
The holidays were nice.
Part of me is glad they are over.
I don’t like having food in front of me constantly and having to run
here and there and everywhere trying to get stuff done.
I started my new meal/workout plan on Monday. I have my work cut out for me if I want to
get on stage this year, which is my goal…since I didn’t fulfill my goals for
last year. I know last year I started
off the same way and then it all fell to shit…once again. I refuse to let that happen again.
I stopped using Splenda as of Monday...i wonder if that will help??? Im using stevia and very little cream in my coffee...we will see? Some say it bloats you...im not sure if im bloated or just fat! LOL!
One of the main reasons is that im at a higher weight
than I have ever been in my entire life!!
Im getting older and its getting harder for the weight to come off too I
guess? Well, that and the fact that I ate
crap constantly and then wonder why I gained weight?
There are a few shows that im contemplating…
May 4th in Pittsburgh…which is like 17 weeks
away? Not sure if that is enough time…
June 1st…which is 21 weeks? Atlantic States in NYC..
June 29th – Philadelphia (Tracy Greenwood)
which is like 25 weeks away…seems like an insane amount of time, but anyone who
knows, knows how fast it goes by!
So my plan of attack is this….as of now…..
The Arnold (yay April!!)…..so I want to be down about 10
by then….which is 8 weeks away. This should
hopefully give me some idea if I can lose the weight like I need to and then be
able to continue on that path.
Go to Daytona sometime in March/April to do Bombshell
Camp so I can have a better timeline of
what I need to do.
One of the toughest parts is trying not to get down on
myself. I am constantly bashing myself
in my head. I need to be confident and
secure.
One of my favorite sayings is “don’t give up on something
that you cannot go one day without thinking about” ….executing it is going to
be what I need to work on ;)
Until next time….

YAY!! You blogged!!!
I want to do Pitt, too, but I don't know if it is realistic. I have about 30-35 to lose... so... yeah. LOL! And I don't feel like seriously prepping yet. :o) Keep me posted on what you're doing! It would be fun to do the show together!
i have to lose that much too!! which is why i dont know if i can make it!
The best thing is to aim for the first show and if about half way to the the show time, you find you are not on track, as long as you haven't registered or sent off an entry form, you'll be able to aim for the next possible one, which might give you another 4-6 weeks, or whenever it would be.
I've always known you could do this and you did it once, so you never actually gave up on it half way through a prep, but the main thing is not to get overly strung up by the whole thing and stress or worry too much, or start beatign yourself up.
You're a beautiful wife, Lady and person Angela and you don't really need to be over-working yourself emotionally about how you percieve yourself.
I really hope this works out for you, because you could be sending out a really positive message about female strength sports, but you need to believe in yourself more and I know you can find the ability to do that.
Be strong, chin up and no worries okay. You're a pretty special and enriching Lady and you have many reasons to be proud of yourself for who you are.
GOOD LUCK.
:-) :-).

I KNOW you can accomplish this! I'm really happy to see you blogging again! Don't feel bad, I have about 25lbs to lose! I want to compete in the fall and even try my first NPC show!
