Ok, so I’m in 6 week into my dieting and prep work for my spring/summer competition and I’m not going to even lie… I’m frustrated as hell! I know I said, “Slow and steady wins the race” but this is ridiculous! At 5am this morning, I weighed myself but I ate or drank anything and I was 153 lbs. WHAT!!! WHAT??? Two weeks ago I was 151.9 lbs. I’m supposed to be LOSING FAT!!! Now, last week I had to take off 3 days from the gym and cardio because I hurt my back (putting my baby into his stroller, go figure!) However, I stuck perfectly to my OFF day diet. I mean, I weigh EVERYTHING I eat right to the number and I train hard! I wish the numbers on the scale and in my measurements reflected that. It made me want to get back into bed at 5am this morning because I was like, ARE YOU SERIOUS?? But I didn’t. I ate my oats and eggs, bundled myself up and headed out into the dark, cold tundra to the gym to kick some butt. I can’t let this slow me down or upset me. I must keep on keepin’ on because one of these days I WILL see the fruits of my labor. It takes time and patience and hard work and this time I intend to get there and stay in great shape without a rebound from all that stupid crazy cardio I had to do last time.
Oh a good note, I did fit into my pre-pregnancy winter corduroy pants this week. That was definitely a highlight!
Ok, time to hang out with my little guy before its time for work!

Here’s a funny picture from November when I was TRYING to walk my little dog, Swayze. This is what happens when he doesn’t want to walk and there are lots of leaves on the ground… he brings them with us!
