It has been several weeks since I posted, I believe 5 in fact. I have been so busy between training, working, talking with my coach, and being a relationship that I haven't had the time to update my blog. There are lots of finishing steps that I have to attend to in addition to all my workouts and meal planning. This week I got my shoes and my suit and I was so excited to see if it even fit. Once I got over the shock of how small it was I put it on and guess what, it fit!!! Of course I had to take pictures and I was beaming with happiness when I saw my photos. I can't believe how far I have come, so I wanted to share it with through through pictures. I told my coach that I am going to make a college of these pictures to take with me to the show so just in case I start to engage in negative self talk or self doubt, I can have a visual reference of how far I have come. Plus I still have two weeks prep for competition and now I am down to the wire.
Only things left to do are 1) Practice my poses and stage presence 2) watch videos on bikini competitions as research and reference for how I should own the stage 3) haircut with quick course in easy styling 4) Get my nails done and of course a pedicure 5) Keep Tanning and Spray tan just before show 6) Get waxed just before show 7) Become a natural in my shoes 8) Continue following my nutrition and fitness plans 9) Buy makeup and learn how to apply it for the show since I only wear tinted moisturizer these days and of course most importantly 10) Register for the show - something I was hoping to do last week but I am hoping to do this week. I will continue to try to update my blog more often and share some of my reflections of my journey.
Again as always your feedback and support are always appreciated. So without further ado here is my progress over the last year and of course since December 2011, when I decided to compete.
As they say "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words."
