2013 NPC California State Championships

Well, I did it! I competed in my first show! The experience was amazing and in the end, I really enjoyed it! From getting my first spray tan to walking across the stage. I totally messed up my posing (forgot moves) both times but I just smiled and kept it moving. So based on height (they measured me at 5'6.5") I was placed in Bikini Class E (5'5" up to 5'7"). I was called out first (which usually means top 5) except they called out 6 of us and I didn't notice, lol. I ended up placing 6 out of 10 beautiful women. I was so surprised!  I didn't feel like I deserved to "win" and that wasn't my goal. I had only been seriously prepping for about 9 weeks when some women have been doing this a year or longer. I just wanted a goal to get my body in shape and step on stage. Well, I did that and discovered, I like it and want to do it again!

It's Official!!!

Week 1 down!

Well I finished week one. I lost weight (started at 121.2 now I'm 116.8, lost 4.4lbs) so we will see what my trainer Deb says about this. I took pics and sent her so she can evaluate my progress. I didn't get too specific w/week 1 as far as blogging goes, but here is what I did.

Week of 8/7

Sunday: Diet began! Did Butt Bible on excercise tv
Monday: Hill intervals on treadmill at the gym/upper body workout
Tuesday: Abs, Cardio dance followed by Butt Bible
Wednesday: Kettle Bell and cardio workout
Thursday: Abs, Lower body and hill intervals on treadmill
Friday & Saturday: Rest

So, Sunday starts a new week! I love Butt Bible so I think I will do that, along w/cardio and abs
