13 days to go!!

Unlucky 13 right....things will start to change in 3 days as there is the 10 days out plan, so the good news is that there will be some change in my life,,,,,the bad news is that I am thinking that
I may not like the change as these are the final days of tweaking with water loads, then dehydration, total carb depletion, then carb loads, yada, yada, yada, the bisque was good.

16 Days to go!


Well, it's almost here. Sticking to the diet has been the hardest thing at the end here, also doing the cardio twice daily has really been a drain on me considering I had no energy before we moved that up. I had to order new posing trunks because the ones I had were "too big", I guess you have to show a lot of skin....."SKIN TO WIN! SKIN TO WIN!" I feel like a piece of meat. Anyway in 10 days we start the total decarb and water loading, and then come Wednesday before the show I get to have CARBS!! White rice, so calm down, it's not sexy like a Snickers bar. Also Wednesday will start the dehydration process....there should be a lot of interesting changes that week. I have a professional photographer taking pictures on that Thursday, so i will get some great pic's to prove that I really did it, and NO there will not be airbrushing or photo shopping it will be me. the Friday morning I go get my Spray Tan, did you know that you do those in the nude?? That is the latest update, and I am pretty sure that I am ready, there are things that I wish was better, i.e., my legs, but for the first time I am pretty pleased. Come celebrate Cinco De Mayo with me if you want to watch me be gluttonous.

Posing Practice March 12th











Here are some pic's from the posing practice on Friday. Rhonda and the boys were able to come and watch me which was really cool. in these pic's you will see Bobby (trainer) and his wife, they both help with the posing. I have 7 weeks to go (47 days) not that anyone is counting. I have a long way to go in order to be ready, but things are really coming together and everyone is happy with the results. Bobby says that we have a shot a first place God willing that would be great, but either way I will be happy and praise God because I have been able to achieve a goal that 12 months ago I would have never thought possible. Yes, those are my little posing trunks I will have to wear at the show, nice huh?

T-61 Days




Weighed in at 222.0 lbs this morning. I am keeping the muscle weight on real well while losing the fat. I don't know where my body fat is at because we are not measuring it, but if I had to guess I would say it is around 7-8% (I could be wrong). Things are getting harder each day, and I am having dreams of eating fish sandwiches and french fries (serious), and the worst part is that I even feel guilty in my dreams! Anyway this is the downhill slide, so I just have to keep the focus. Pics are from this morning, not very good quality, but you get the point. Still quite a way to go.

Day 114 of 182

I figured it up and I started this process 114 days ago and there is 68 days left, although this process has changed my whole perspective on how I will live my life for however long the good Lord allows me to be here on earth. I can say that this last half of the process is not how I or anyone would want to live their life everyday. Things are getting hard because of the lack of carbs and the biggest problem is that I am extremely grumpy and I have to try and contain that emotion, but the fat is really coming off at a nice pace. I just ordered my posing trunks (banana hammock) and that is going to feel weird wearing something like that, but I won't be the only one wearing one, so what the hell. One day at a time.

73 Days to Gooooo!!

Hey it's been a while, but really it's been business as usual with the whole thing, that is until yesterday. I met with Bobby for measurements yesterday and I have made some great gains (actually losses) and things are going as planned, but in order to keep the momentum we changed up the diet to get rid of more of the daily fat intake and replaced it with protein and the next step is to cut on of my morning carbs with protein. Again there is a long way to go, but yet it will come quicker than I think.

79 Days to go!!


Weighed in this morning at 224.2 lbs, and the odd thing is that it is not really about the scale because I have been loosing body fat and we are going to do measurement next Tuesday, but Bobby will not do a body fat calibrator because it's useless since it is all about how I look. Things are getting harder with the diet and my body starts to go after the fat stores it is really trying to convince me to eat and making me grumpy. Times like these you just need to stay focused and remember that your body is not in charge "you" are in charge, your body does not want to use up fat stores and it will do anything it can to keep it. Here is a picture of my pills that I take in the morning and then there is another round just like it at noon. It is a cornucopia of vitamins and fat burners, ect.
