8 Weeks Out

I am officially 8 weeks out from my comp. I'm hammered, and should be in bed. But I'm excited about this, and sad about no booze for the next 8 weeks. Actually no booze really til the end of April. I'm sure I'll sneak a couple cheat days in though. I will post later in the day cuz it's like 4:00am now here. AGGGHHHH. So maybe I'll see you around 1:00pm. I actually have to be at work at 10:00am. I'm not going to be happy about that in a few hours.

I'll also post my stats and stuff cuz I had my weight, measurements and bodyfat done - yesterday- on Friday, February 8/02. I was happy about them, just too tired and drunk to post em now.............goodnight.

Saturday, Feb.9/02

Life has been kind to me again. I feel great today, just a little tired. Thankfully! I made sure to guzzle a tonne of water back last night after each beer too, and then just before bed.

My training for the next two weeks will be as follows:
Finish my last 2weeks of super heavy 6reps x 8sets. 5day split.
Cardio 5-6x/week.

Diet:
Hoping to stick to eating every 2 1/2-3hr.
Ideally 8:30am, 11:00am, 1:30pm, 4:00pm, 6:30pm and 9:00pm.

And chugging oodles of agua.

I did 30min. cardio on the elliptical, lots of abs, and a really good, long stretch.

My current stats are as follows:

100% female

weight: 131lb
height: 5' 5 1/2"
bodyfat: 11%
arm: 10 3/4in
chest: 35 1/2
waist: 26
hips: 35 1/2
thigh: 21 1/2
calf: 13

I will be training legs tomorrow cuz 'the training partner' won't have anytime at all on Monday to do them. So, we're going to squeeze them in tomorrow.

I am doing the New York State WNSO Naturals on April 6. Still don't know about a comp. April 20th yet. And for sure one on April 26/02 in TO.

I am undecided about figure or bb at this moment still. Whether I can or can't do the April 20th show will determine. I am also entering the Fitness Model Search regardless of whether I do figure or bb. So that's about all I got to say about that...RUN FOREST RUN!!!

I just found out I cannot do the show on the 20th I was hoping to do. The organization that runs it does not allow it's athletes to compete in other organizations e.g. WNSO. I don't want to be limited to just the one organization just yet. I'd have to buy their membership, keep up my membership annually or pay default when I join again, and only compete in their events. So, I'm just doing 2 shows in April. Saves me some money But I really wanted to give that other comp a go.

Because of this news, I will be aiming to do the bodybuilding instead of figure comp. plus the fitness model search. Depending on how my physique looks, I may either try to come in the heavyweights at 120lb (that would be awesome), if I find I'm not looking lean enough, I will drop down to the lightweight and hopefully come in right at 115lb or just under.

I will still be doing the CALE fitness model search at the end of April too. You only live once and I'm not getting any younger

Who's this....it's not wnso is it?

That other comp sounds like it was w/ Ontario Physique Association....I competed w/ them for my first comp. I won't compete w/ them anymore for the same reason.

Good luck CLPgold. I am so anxious to start for my first show this year, but I picked one in November to try and put on some mass first. It sounds like you had one heck of a night there girl.

I thought the comment about 100% female was cute. My wife is also 100% female and I have to say that most of the time I don't have a clue.

I think that you women enjoy that immeasureably.

You're right about the organization w8!

The fitness model search is the one with WNSO held during the Canadian Active Lifestyles (Living?) Expo. CALE.

I've got my music picked out for Niagara Falls. And I'm satisfied with my sport and evening outfits. Need to get a new bikini and need to buy a new posing suit. Thinking of maybe red or dark purple. And I'm the Canadian Imelda Marco of shoes so I've got that category covered. Actually I'll probalby pick up a couple pair of new runners.

Mmm mmm BEER!!!

I'd love to win the lottery and spend the first few months drinking my a$$ off to decide what else to spend my money on. Buy shares in Labatt? Start my own micro brewery? Open up a 'beer only' bar?

I'm definitely getting sick. I can feel the flu symptoms taking hold. I had a 1 1/2hr. nap this afternoon. It just wasn't enough, so I couldn't do my chest workout tonight. I've only got 2more weeks left of my super heavy, and I want to put my all into those workouts. And avoid injury. So, I'd better be better tomorrow. I'm going to bed super early, drinking tonnes of water, and made homemade chicken soup. Ate an orange and some raisins, took a vitC. Hopefully all will be well tomorrow.

I am officially sick. I'm taking the whole day off work, and I've got 2 sick kids at home too. So,I'm missing my chest workout again. I'm really only 1 day behind in my w/o's cuz we trained Sunday instead of Monday due to time constraints. 'Training partner' is not happy about this situation. Neither am I. But I don't want to put in a half a$$ed job into my w/o.

Sleep: Almost 8 hr. I'm gonna take an afternoon nap today too.

8:00am
4cooked egg whites w/1/8tsp.sea salt
1/2 pink grapefruit

11:00am
2oz steak sauteed with peanut oil, sea salt, fresh garlic, sesame seeds

3oz.steak I LOVE MEAT!!!
1tsp.bread dough again. It's still rising so I snuck a nibble.

12:00pm
1/4cp.raisins - I'm all out again. Maybe I shouldn't eat so much.

1:00pm
1hardboiled egg white
1tbsp.mixed veggies: carrots, peas, corn, green beans, lima beans
Taste testing AGAIN.

Just put my breads in the oven, when they're done I'm having a nap.

With absolutey no junk food in the house, snackies, white or brown sugar, etc. the kids are really starting to appreciate cut up fresh fruit and raisins as an alternative.

2:30PM
4oz saute beef on a bed of iceburg, red leaf lettuce and spinach
1tbsp.homemade Japanese vinagrette
1/2lice homemade bread: rye flour, organic amaranth flour, whole wheat flour, wheat germ, sea salt, yeast, peanut oil, honey

Just got a call from 'the training partner'. He had some FYI for me. Apparently a super hottie - but not 'the super hottie'- was asking about me and if I were single or not. Hmmmm.....this guy is definitely very well built and beautiful. What are the chances he's super nice too??? Maybe I should investigate this a little further...
