I just thought I could keep up with a blog! Time is flying by so fast and my summer is about to end. I am so sad. It feels like it just started. I thought I would update everyone on what is going on. It has been almost 2 months since my comp and I have only put on 5 lbs! I am so thrilled with myself because this is huge for me. I think I finally figured it all out. I have been on my after comp diet and doing pretty well although I did cheat more than I was suppose to. Hey it is summer and I have had lots of celebrating to do. I have enjoyed my share of margaritas that is for sure. I am renewing my workouts and getting a new diet next week so when school starts on the 10th, (my birthday which sucks)I will have a new workout regimen and new diets. I have just been so bored lately. If I must go back to work and have to be on a schedule I do really well with my diet so here we go, oh boy.
On the job front, still looking, keeping fingers crossed. It is never too late even after schools starts. I need to love my job again and I will someday.
Hubby has been home all summer and as of today he will be gone a lot. I am going to be lucky to see him once a week. That is another reason I do very well when school starts and he is out of town. I am on a tight schedule and there is not much cooking going on so how can I fail. I work, workout and sleep, that is about it. I will do this for the next 9 months and then vacation for 3. We do have a beach trip planned for December when I am out for Winter Break so that will be something to look forward to.
I have two friends who are competing next week and it was a show I thought long and hard about doing but decided to relax this summer. I am looking forward to cheering them on, one is figure and one is bb so I am pumped and hopefully it will light my fire again. I go back and forth, I want to compete, I don't, I want to, I don't. I really do want to. SEE! I did sell my black suit but only because I have worn it twice and want something different so that will be another expense on top of everything else.

The main thing is not to sacrifice happiness, for reasons that make no sense.
If there is no choice sometimes, it must be done, but to have at least two choices and make the wrong one, is something that cannot be forgotten, and if you need to be happier doing similar or different work, then that must be your choice, and something to be 100% hapy with doing.
I know you will do the right thing for you. As for the competing, you have absolutely never looked better, than when you did those shows.
You absolutely looked every inch the true athlete you are, and you showed people, that there is such a thing as a strong and feminine lady, and you proved a lot to yourself, by being strong enough to go further, and not just settle for one show, when it was clear your talents were more than just that.
I know you have to make a choice about that, based on certain factors, and like I've said before, I would always support your athletic career, but you were the person I knew, before you were the athlete I also know today, and I'd never be dissapointed if you ever chose to give up, even when it looked like you had another few good years left, as your happiness is paramount, not necessarily what others think could be, as it then goes back to that sacrificing happiness, for the wrong reasons.
Certainly I would support anything you do, because your happiness is what's important to me, where we are concerned, and nothing will diminish the respect and admiration for you, that I have, and the constant pride for you, that I have as well.
You have thus far, been a great ambassador for healthy females everywhere, a great rolemodel, inspiration, and also a great ambassador for the way a person should be, as you've always been nothing less than warm, positive, and very, very human.
I wish you much luck in all you do, and the best of times. I hope you don't ever have to sacrifice an ounce of the happiness you richly deserve, for anyone or anything. It may have to be done, but hopefully not.
You are a very good friend to people, and a very, very good and kind-hearted person, and in many years, when you hopefully pass on in peaceful sleep, although your impact on the world probably won't have been massive, to all those that you touched along the way, that are still around to remember, the gratitutde will live on after you, and the respect and admiration and pride will still be there I'm sure.
Take care and best wishes, and never stop being proud of who you are. You deserve to be. You've done a lot of positive and great things in life, and it is incredibly commendable.
