Tomorrow's a Big Day!

So tomorrow I meet with my trainer for the first time for this competition. I am kind of nervous because this will be the first time that I am seeing her since I went off track and starting working outside of the house again too. I definitely have my head back on straight but I am a little, I guess you would say, "embarrassed." I am over it but still slightly disappointed with myself. So I have a good workout planned for this evening and my eating has been clean so I'm off to a fantastic start. We'll see what I have to change tomorrow!!!!

Accountability

Well, this is my attempt to keep one of these blog things up and running. I can barely keep myself running at times so don't know how this is going to go. Always willing to give things a try.

I am starting this blog to chart my journey to a figure competition in April '09. I am really excited but after having 3 kids 15 months apart it is a little hard to imagine!!!

I have a great trainer and she trained me for a competition 5 years ago. I just want to do this to have a goal that is for myself. I am also always striving for the consistency in my diet that I know I need. I feel that this competition will give me a reason to be honest and good to myself.

I'm not a quitter so I know that I will be doing the competition in April but after watching yourself stretch out 3 times in a row you are less confident about the results. I am going to give it my best and see what happens.

If anyone has any words of advice please let me know. I decided to do this after reading so many of your posts.

Talk to you soon, Shelly
