t minus 3 weeks

Yes, yesterday was the 3 week mark for the Okinawa Show! 

What did my first week of hard training accomplish for me?  Down 4 pounds!!  WOO HOO!!!  Went last night to the Foster Far East Bodybuilding competition and let me tell you, it was bittersweet being in the stands...sweet because I got to cheer on my gal pals but bitter because I really missed being up there!  But sweet too because I got to see some of the little things in posing and thank yous that the other gals did and I am going to practice and tweak some of my stuff now too.  There was some great looking gals up there and the competition in the short class was tense!  Those girls looked rock solid...the winner, a local looked like she had just been chiseled or photo shopped on that stage, she was RIPPED!  Everyone looked great and you could see the dedication and discipline it took them to reach their goals last night! 

Talk about a major boost to get my butt in gear even more!  Trained 5 days of weights last week and all 7 days cardio (some of those days twice! - it's takes a lot to get those pounds off!)  But, I am ready, I am officially registered to compete and I can't wait.  My suit is ordered, I have talked with my make-up lady, bikini bite and tanner are ordered and I've been practicing posing and walking again in my 5 inch hooker heels ;) 

I tell you even just those 4 pounds that I shed last week have made a huge difference, I am ready and I am determined!  20 days to go...that means 18 days to train!  No cheating, sticking hard to the diet and never giving up...as my own personal motivational poster says below - I have a fixed purpose and I have the drive!  How is your goal going?  Are you determined?


Today's Quote of the Post:
“I believe in blood, sweat and tears.” ~Jillian Michaels

I believe that we all can attain our dreams if we have the guts to take the leap to attain them....get your blood, sweat and tears on - take the leap and believe in yourself...you are the only thing holding you back!
 
hugs!
