Hey all!
I'm a lurker so I thought I'd do something a little out of the norm for me and start posting! I'm in pre contest mode right now and thought I'd start logging it. I find that contest prep is such a lonely time, some support and advice would make the process easier and keep me accountable. Anyways, a little bit about me:
I am married and a mother to one. After years of dreaming about it, I entered my first figure competition last March. While I didn't get the result I wanted, it was a great experience and left me hungry for more. While training afterward for a March 2013 comp, I got pregnant, was high risk, lost the pregnancy during the second trimester and was pretty sick for a good 6 weeks afterwards. Made new goals and now I'm set to compete in June 1. I'm thinking about shooting for a June 22nd comp instead, should have my mind made up by the end of the week. The difference is rather than fly to the competition location, I can drive.
Today is an off lift day for me. Did my morning cardio on the treadmill and now having my breakfast of oatmeal with chia and egg whites. I will do all my food prep/sup prep for the week today, get my second round of cardio later and hopefully have a little time left over to do the laundry and some house cleaning.
Tomorrow is, ugh, leg day.
