2.5 weeks out!

So I am 2.5 weeks from the Sept. 5th NPC show. I decided to do it. It is the only date that works for me this fall and I may not be where I had hoped to be but I'm a long way from where I was. I thought about it, talked about it and decided that each time out competitors get a little bit better and learn a lot more. I am going to practice what I preach and stick to the goal of being better each time, striving for my own YOUNIQUE body, MY personal best.

I know it's going to be tough competition. It's a PRO qualifying show so it'll bring out the best in the area. I'll do it and see how I feel afterward. If I still feel like it's something I want to chase I'll prep again for spring shows. But bottom line based on my struggles this time around, it has to be worth the sacrifices I'm making.

Right now I'm focusing on today; my power lower body workout and cardio I have ahead of me tonight. Eating clean, drinking water, getting rest and spending time with my family. It just so happens that my mom is in town until just after the show...she's a Godsend. Just when I was losing it, she showed up. Everybody needs their mommy huh ;)
