I can't tell much of a different between the two except maybe the angle of the picture

If you see anything I don't in the above pictures please let me know :)
With all the challenges I have had, I am glad to report that I am still working towards my goal and I have to remember this is a process and as they say "Rome wasn't built in a day." So changing my physique is a lifestyle change that not only impacts me but the people around me. Sometimes I feel that I am learning to walk - I am making progress but boy have I had my fare share of falls and some have been harder than others.
Not so I sound do gloom and doom or too critical of myself. I have made some really good progress including working on eating better every day, reading The Metabolic Effect Diet book (which I highly recommend), working out daily and now starting to get up on my own to work out in the morning, figuring out how to get into bed early to get enough sleep, engaged in a coaching program with my health insurance and I have also started a coaching program for the next year with Jill Coleman at www.jillfit.com which I am excited about. Being involved in the coaching program will help me continue to make long lasting progress beyond just the figure competition. Her program isn't just about the physical aspects of being healthy but also the mental ones as well. It is ironic in a way that I have started paying more attention and focus on the mind body connection and I found her.
I am also still planning on competing. The competition is only 79 days away and I have a lot of fat to lose but it is still doable with increased focus and discipline. The most important thing is that I am learning about myself and challenging myself to grow in ways I have never done before, therefore it is important for me to be able to make changes that I will be able to stick with for life and that will increase the positive aspects of my relationship with myself and my partner, Kirk.
Today's thought to ponder:
"The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." ~ Vince Lombardi
