Heathy Eating Tip


By having healthy foods and snacks with me at all times, I eliminate the possibility of grabbing something unhealthy to eat and I have better control of how the foods were prepared and what I am putting into my body. Always have some shakes/bars/ fruit/snacks set aside to grab in a hurry, so that you don’t get stuck without anything. Make it a priority to prepare, carry and eat healthy foods all the time. 




Remember: EAT WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY, NOT WHEN YOU ARE BORED!!

If You Think...

If you think you are beaten, you are
If you think you dare not, you don't,
If you like to win, but you think you can't
It is almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you've lost
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow's will
It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are
You've got to think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN! 


Update (3 Week Count Down)

Today has been a great day! My coach and I have been debating whether or not to wait and do the November show instead of the October show. Today we decided to keep October our focus and see what happens. 

I had a great day at posing practice. It has been great getting to know the other girls and make friends! It is so nice to talk to like minded women who are going through the same things I am going through. 

This week was tough (understatement)! I lowered my calories (a lot) and doubled my cardio. The results were worth it! After days like today, it reminds me why I do this. I am more determined than ever. Can't wait to see what this week brings! 

As always, thank you for your support! Your kind words on a tough day make all the difference in the world.
