8 weeks out!

Things are shaping up very nicely at the 8 week mark. I have lost 10 lbs in 8 weeks, have 8 weeks to go and 5 lbs to lose. George is slowing me down some...I get a cheat meal tonight....wa hoo! burger here i come!

My gym is closed for a week, and its a stress I dont need right now...I have to drive an extra 10 miles 1 way to the next town over to train til they get the move finished. Living in the boonies, we dont have a gym on every block like a city does. we have 1....and this week none!

leaves are peaked and its been a gorgeous month here... i love fall.

the o was this weekend and i must give a shout to my friend jen for winning the fitness o, and george for taking 5th in the 202 class. its the best hes ever looked...so proud of him.

thanks for stopping by....off to have my burger now!

4 weeks in and 12 to go. things are shaping up pretty nicely. i have about 10 lbs to go...have to to make weight. suits are ordered, routine and music are done, travel plans made, now i just gotta get to my all time best!

16 weeks baby!

Well its that time agian....16 weeks til Atlanta. I am excited to be starting prep. I want to see the improvements I have made unwrapped! I am pretty lean right now, about 14 lbs to lose I guess. I hope it melts off as easy as last year.


let the games begin!

20th high school reunion

how time flies! I had my 20th reunion this weekend..it was great seeing everyone. I must admit a few people looked so different I didnt recongize them ( good and bad). I reconnected with several close friends ..ann, kerry, jess and kim..and it was so nice to see how far people have come, how theyve changed and to talk about old times. I was a really party girl in school, and my life couldnt be farther from that now!

19 weeks til i hit nationals. 3 weeks til prep starts, i an stoked for it. no messing around ..i am bringing my A game..this ones mine.

20 weeks to go!

Just at about the 20 week mark for nationals. I'm feeling ready, ready in the regard that I feel I have brought up my weaknesses. I am sitting at about 130, so 15 lbs to go, not bad.

I have had a crazy few weeks, judged in Syracuse and Rochester ...prepped mt GF gina for her 1st show...the rochester show. she had a blast and took 4th in the LH class. Went to Chicago to visit my BFF Michele, and hit Jr nationals night show. Good to see everyone...helps to get in the mind set for prep myself.

Im also heading to masters in a few weeks to support friends and help my girlfriend Margo with her booth .

AND.....my 20th high school reunion is next week. I am plannng on going, but have been feeling like chickening out.....i hated that time in my life.

thank god spring is finally here in the adirondack mountains. i swear we dont have spring here, its winter, and a lonnngggg one, and boom, its summer.

training is going well. im 12 days into my 10 week mass program. lifts are off the hook, i had a PR with dumbell curls yesterday. 50 lbs x 4. i love watching people watch me when i do stuff like that. for a little shit, im strong. weight is up a bit, but it comes with the terrotpry when your trying to add new meat. im hitting back and quads twice a week, better work dammit!

I am helping one of my best friends, gina, prep for her 1st show. she is 8 weeks out today from the NPC rochester show hosted by jim rockell. she i s looking good and working so hard, i m so proud of her.

all to report.....thanks for stopping in.

SPONSORSHIP!

i am very excited to be sponsored by MILLENNIUM SPORTS TECHNOLOGIES! It s a fairly new company and I am hoping to grow with them.

Its still winter here....god... anyone got a beach house they would give me for the month of april?

Another month has come and gone, and spring is NOWHERE in sight. We got snow agian yesterday, and I bet it will be here til the end of April at this rate..bla

Training is going well. I m getting in some great workouts and by the end of the week, I need to the weekend to heal up and rest. Waiting on George for my new program. I love a new challange, and he always delivers one!

all for now....

gee time flies!

I am ashamed of myself for not being more dedicated to this blog.

Since I have lasted posted the Arnold CLassic has come and gone. I had to get a stupid cold just in time for it, so I didnt have as much fun as I was hoping. I got to see my girls, Michele Margo, michelle and tracy and that was worth the trip in it self. It truly stinks when your best gal pals live all over the country. I saw John Stutz, and the FIT GIRLS book, and I cannot wait to get my copy. It came out awesome. I cant imagine it NOT being a big seller. Also saw George, so I need to start a game plan with him and bring up my weak areas for nationals this year.

I am also starting to do training at my gym, lake placid health and fitness. I m excited, I really think i can do well, considering people have been bugging me to do it for years. I also got a sports nutrition certification. I really want to be able to do the whole picture for people, and with my back ground with contest prep, i hope it takes off. I have 3 people now that I am prepping for shows, so little by little, I m getting there!

Spring has not sprung here in northern NY, far from it. We still have tons of snow and though the temps are mild, its not melting fast enough for me.

All for now....til next time.....

Havent posted in a while, for the simple reason that there is nothing new to report. This is an eventful time of the year to say the least.
I have felt great since my surgery, and healed with no problems. I am happy with the results and wish I would have done it years ago.
I am very excited, only about 5 weeks to the Arnold! I am seeing my best girl friends....and its been toooo long since we have been together. Not working, which I m happy about,s o we can have fun, hang out and have some over due girl time.
Training is going good. Been really fucusing on my back ..my weak link. I see George at the AC, so I hope to talk with him about my plan for 08.

happy 2008!

I know it sounds so cliche, but where did the time go? I am glad the holidays are over now...get back to normal and stop spending money and eating too much!

We have been hit with record snowfall for Dec, and I must admit I am loving it with the mild temps. I have been snow shoeing a ton, and its really paying off for my legs! and my doggies are loving it too.

I am pretty much back 100% since my sugery 3 weeks ago. I still have a few bruises, but all in all, it was nothing. Training isnt 100% yet, I will start training chest this week, lightly and work my way back. I am very happy with the results, and so glad I did it!
