End Week 11 - Start Week 12

OMG has it really been 2 weeks since my last entry? Unbelievable.
And only 5 weeks to go till my Adelaide INBA comp!
and............ only 3 weeks till Baby Sims is due!!

Tomorrow is Chelsea's 21st Birthday and last week on Tuesday 9th, her and Nath got engaged! CONGRATULATIONS CHELS AND NATH! XXXX Happy Birthday Chels xxxx

St Patrick's Day - just gone (Wednesday 17th March) was Dylan's 29th Birthday. (How old do i feel??) Happy Birthday Dylan xxxx

What else. My life is so happening at the moment. It's crazy.............

What with Work 4 days a week, Training 2 x a day, and studying for my Cert III in Fitness, teaching and performing dance, I am too busy!! aaaaaargh.

I have been trying to spend some time on my Posing and Routine practice, but, the days go by so fast. If I am not in bed by 10pm, i cannot get through the next day without severe tiredness, so i literally HAVE to be in bed by about 10pm. During the week at least....

I have been studying like mad at work, in between work stuff! But still have so much to do before the Exam which is the day Thursday before Easter.

I am off to Queensland on Friday night for the week end. Off to finally meet and stay with Di, my beautiful training mentor. I cannot wait. We will be working hard concentrating on poses, and routine. I will be glad to get some real solid practice in with Di. And no doubt, i will be studying on the plane there and back.

Tomorrow night is Chels' 21st Fiesta Party so have to go and find something Mexican to wear!! Ole!
Should be lots of fun. Greg is growing his Mexican moustache at the moment! Haha any excuse for a fancy moustache.

Will write soon, back to work now!

End Week 9 - Start Week 10

OMG 7 weeks to go!

Well things are starting to really accelerate now. As i am moving closer to the Comp i am discovering a whole new lifestyle.
I read somewhere recently that training for a comp is like having a 2nd job and you know what - it is true, only instead of earning money, i seem to be continuously spending money!
So far, I have organised my beautiful costume which is being made as we speak!
I have bought a gorgous pair of shoes for the comp to match my beautiful costume!
I have experienced the joys of WAXING! (a whole new experience for me girls)
I have posters plastered everywhere to remind me of the importance of preparing for the comp.
I have also purchased a copy of last years comp in Adelaide, so i can really start practising and perfecting my poses and routine. (MUSIC CHOSEN FOR THAT TOO!) and really take in what i am going to be experiencing myself very soon...................
I am so excited and so pumped.

I am training like a machine. Twice a day, one day off a week. Cardio, Weights, Circuits, Classes, RPM, Step, you name it. Oh and ABS too of course!!
I am lifting my weights to add more resistence and really taking off now with the cardio, Esp like the treadmill at the moment. Bike OK too.
Diet is boring boring boring, but it's ok. I can literally see myself shrinking, my body shaping and the fat disappearing! Week by week.

I basically feel absolutely fantastic.

Like to acknowledge all the people who are supporting me at the moment,
Trainer/Mentor and long distance training partner - Di, Hubby and also training buddy - Greg, beautiful Daughter Chelsea, also, some the guys at the gym who are always keen to help or know how i am going, Tom, Di, Brad, Tam, Ali, Bruce, etc.

Back to work,
chat later,
