Andrea...just where do you think you need to loose at? You look perfect to me! I don't think going that low would be good for you or for anyone else. Its not good for the body. I've got that other show in about 12 or so days, its the only reason I did it. It starts to mess with your head when you don't have carbs, etc.

This morning was 25 mins cardio at 5:30am. Still sleepy and the day has not even begun. I'll try to post more later today if I am not swamped at work. Hope everyone has a great day! And that we get some sunshine! But more rain is on the menu according to the tv.

I do the bike, the treadmill, or the stair stepper. Today was the bike since I wasn't all the way awake.

I don't feel ready for this show. Just been having alot of issues with this one. Figure is just so different from a natty bbing show. But I am going to go ahead with it, have fun and say fawk it when its over. I'm sitting today at where I was for the first show. I can look in the mirror and totally pick myself apart with the flaws I see that still need major improvements. Craig is probably sick of hearing me biotch about it all. I haven't been too nice the past few weeks. People have been really bugging me. We have this "friend" that has been working out with us and he is very draining to me. Whines worse than anyone I have ever met, talks about things that should not be talked about at the gym and talks VERY VERY loud, acts like a dog in heat everytime a girl walks by him. And I am just down right sick of him asking us to go out to eat when he knows damn well I will not go due to my diet and be so close to this show. Hell he got upset with Craig because he does not always answer his cell (he never brings it in the house or stuff). Said he would try reaching him on mine. I was like WTF....I won't answer mine if you call on it. Yes...I did tell him that too. Then..when we are trying to leave the gym, he'll try and talk for another 15 mins out in the parking lot. (by this time, it is way past time for food and I am going into major bitch mode and not a goodthing for anyone around me)

OMG...I didn't mean for this to be my Tuesday rant. Sorry. See..this is what three days low carbs do. Not a goodthing. I'll have my spuds today. Promise!

From what I've seen you look AMAZING! Yes, I mean it, AMAZING!! I'm sure your fellow competitiors will look great too, especially if they're not natural , but I really think you have a great chance of winning!

Come on Jodie, you can do it Put that beautiful smile back on your lips and beat all the negative feelings

I'm not feeling negative about the show. Just being realistic about it. I'd be estatic if I placed in the top 10 at this show, that is how good these girls look. They are amazing, alot of them compete on a national level.

You mean like the show Boiling Point? I couldn't be so lucky. I am stuck with him and I wouldn't win any money.

Today when we got to the gym...he was there.....waiting for us once again. Today was another very busy day at work, so I was kinda short fused to say the least. He asks...."Jodie, how was your day?" My reponse was, "I was swamped, extremely busy and I am in a bitchy mood".

Its sad....I even thought about going to a different gym tonight just to have some quiet. I only have my membership to the one gym, but was willing to pay to go to a different one tonight.

I'm ready for work to be unbusy. Peeps need to stop moving! Plus there has only been two of us in the office all week. Manager doesn't do much besides her stuff so it all falls back on me to do. Only one more day I keep saying to myself, then a few days off, then work 4, then off 5.

Jillie...he only talks louder. Headphones don't drowned him out. I'm glad he is going to Vegas on Sat. I'll be able to get my last few days of cardio and workouts with just Craigie pooh.

WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Tomorrow I do not have to go to work! Today was another day from hell! So busy, hardly had time to eat and didn't get my meal 4 in till just a few mins ago. I resorted to having 3 slices of turkey lunch meat on the way out the door to them gym so I wouldn't hurl while there. There was no cardio tonight, just didn't feel like doing any. Today was day one of 3 for low carbs. I did have a handful of that Kashi cereal Craig bought on my salad. That's some good stuff!

I'm almost done stoning my burgandy suit. I'll take a pic as soon as I have it complete. Looks like a whole new suit now! When its done it'll be all sparkly with about 250 stones! Oh...my make up artist had to cancel for the show. Its ok, didn't really need to be spending the extra $ on that, I can do my own, now I can get my hair color done.

Tonight's workout was back.
BB bent over rows
3 x 10 @ 65 for warm ups
2 x 6 @ 135,145
Vbar pullsdowns
2 x6 @ 130
Pullups
2 x10 with 8 on the machine (not sure of weight)
DB one arm row
1 x 8 @ 60
Deads
2 x 10 @ 95, 115
Shrugs
2 x 6 @ 225,315
