VENT!!!
I am sick of being chubby and more than ready to start dietting this shit down!
uurrgghhhh 15 weeks until comp... all the novice girls are like 7 weeks out and getting skinny and Im still ,STILL, STILL bulking...
my jeans don't fit. My arse is popping out of them
My shirts are too tight, I've cut the sleeves off them and look like a tool.
I have been living in sweat pants and Pajamas for 2 weeks (oh and my uniform for work, whioch is still too big on me... so that's good at least)
I'm HOT all the time... like I swear I thought I was in menopause or something with the hot flashes... except for my feet which are freezing..
I'm "bulking" but lost my cheat meals because of some Novice bitches cheating on thier diets.. so he took cheat meals away from EVERYONE and I really want a Garden burger from stellas and a piece of toast!
I believe I am finally standing on the ledge...
This too shall pass. I felt like that at 250 the year before last. I would turn red getting up out of the chair. This year @ 235 I stopped at the point of "this sucks ass". If I was smart I would have stopped @ 230 as the last 5 pounds were almost pure fat. It sounds like yours has been productive though so focus on the positive. Once you start cleaning up you'll be bigger and stronger than last year.
... A garden burger from stella's sounds pretty good right about now. I'm ready for some carbs. Wife is taking me to the restauraunt in assiniboine park on sunday for valentine's so I'm waiting 2 extra days for my cheat meal this week.
.... me me me... You'll be fine it's almost over.
They have great brunches there....pancakes....yum....Quote:

I love it when my clothes are to small....lol...means you are doing something correct.....When i was 278 i looked like everything i had was hand me downs from a little cousin.....haha:D
thanks guys.. I just had to vent that.. I guess that's a down side to living with one of your trainers... she just doesn't want to hear my complain! plus it always seems so easy for her! lol...
I stole 2 of her shirts.. shhhhhhh don't tell... but I am officially NOT a size small anymore!
T!... Stella's Garden burgers are one of my favorite foods in the whole wide world... mmmm Have fun at the Pavillion!... mmm should be good!
Stella's breakfast with the sausage and eggs has always kept from trying anything else. I love their sausages.
go for the baked eggs!!Quote:

still feeling very strong... very full, lots of energy.. 14 weeks left!
I missed this thread so I just went through all the pages,
Dryvrgrl your doing some awesome progress, keep going :)
your gonna do great in the comp
Thanks Big D
so 13 weeks today... this past week has been pretty average... I had some food cut, and dropped 5 pounds... so he's scared i lean out too quick and added some carbs back for a few weeks... mmmm banana.. lol.. Im happy with the gains over this winter to my legs... they don't exactly look like toothpicks any more, and my ass... well, this year I have one, so that's kinda cool... My arms are bigger, just stupid fitness posing you can't really tell, and I know Ive gotten overall a bit "thicker" (I know from how my clothes fit)... it's just tough to see big changes because I'm still pretty small.
I have decided I need a tan... It hides the old lady skin!.. so I'm going to try fake and bake, even though my Dr told me not to. I have my routine music cut , and choreography in place... going to try a runthrough of the routine this monday... My posing suit is sewn, just have to glue on a few hundred more rinestones... so yeah, things are comming together...
today's weight, 124 pounds, should comepete at around 118 (I hope) was 113 last year
wow, great legs :sexy
Wow you have a great ass....lol, with all respect;)
Looking fantastic and unique as usual!!!
thanks guys!! :)
Looking good chica, but you know something, you bulk on more calories than I do and weigh about 190, do you do alot of cardio/activities?Quote:

ok.. 12 weeks out... well, 11 weeks and 6 days, it's been a GREAT week! I got new programs, switched up a bunch of excercises and came back to a bunch of stuff I havent done in a few months.. and holy crap! Have I noticed a difference in the weight I can do!... way heavier (well... "way" heavier is 10-25 pounds for the most part... but hey, every bit counts)
I think my biggest gains have been in my shoulders lately... I'm feeling very good about my physique right now... I've put back on a couple of the pounds I dropped a couple weeks ago (coach wants me to hold it longer) and I feel right on track!
he gave me a cheat day today... he told me to "Go Nuts"... so my last kick at the cat... (maybe) so far I've had coffee, with milk and sugar... a chocolate chip bagel with peanutbutter, a banana.. and it isn't even 7am! lol... planning on birthday cake later (was my daughter's 17th b-day this week and Leigh's "Masters" birthday.. lol she's 35 now!) and for some reason I want a cheeseburger, but not a crappy fast food one, like a super greasy burger place one... maybe Dairy Whip or super boys or something...
Heading to the gym in about an hour.. Cleans, squats, bench, pushpress... READY!!!
A whole day? I'd probably end up in the hospital. enjoy.
good stuff DG! So what else did you eat? ;)
Congratulations on all the hard work and nice tats.
11 weeks today!!
posing this morning went well... My trainer says we are an airplane flying around the sky jsut waiting for landing... so, in order to not get to lean... another cheat day today.. he says to aim for 5000 claories.. uurrgghh... I just want Skinny time!! lol
decent week, I tried fake and bake tanning this week... burned my boobs.. nobody warned me about boob tanning sensitiviy... still lifting pretty heavy, he says I might be able to smack a bit more size on my shoulders yet... so Ive had some crazy shoulder workouts, and actually hit an all time personal best with a pushpress!! (125 pounds!! whoo hoo)
pulled my glute a bit at gymnastics but I feel like it is on the mend... about the biggest change this week is the addition of flax seed oil to my diet, and the insane need to use the can because of it!!
whoo hoo... next weeks update will be only 10 weeks out!
your doing awesome, you have a great positive attitude. keep up the hard work.Quote:

10 WEEKS!!!
well Mabba novice is one week out, and we have 4 girls competing and I am TOTALLY riding on thier pre contest excitement this week!! It's been a good week watching them make huge daily changes! one girl has lost over 40 pounds in a year (she was originally a rehab client)... and I am so excited to see them all up there!!... however, watching them all skinny on out, makes me a little jealous, lol...oh well 9 more weeks and I'll be where they are today!
I don't have a cheat this weekend. I kinda like that. It makes me feel like I'm getting closer. I dropped a few pounds this week, sitting at 123 pounds, still lifting heavy and feeling strong... good energy... no big changes, just a little tightening overall. I can see the weight loss mostly in my face.
My cardio is going up this week in intensity a bit, and next week I start serious routine practicing a couple times a week as well as increasing gymnastics to 2X a week... which I'm excited about! I'm not excited about a shange in my work schedule which will see me having to get up at 5am instead of 5:30 am.. but whatever, afternoon naps in the tanning machine are good too!!
Positive attitude about the upcomming week!
(I don't have a pic from this week posing, because my camera was dead, but here's one of me squatting since you perv's like that kind of thing)
low enough?
DAMNED.. sideways...
Looking great, Quads coming in nice, love the tatt sleeve
Yhanks!.. yeah, I have more tattoos than is really good for fitness, lol ahh well... **** em if they can't take a joke! ;)
great job dg:) it's ok I just turned my pc sideways ;)
X2. Your determination and commitment is very impressive. :)Quote:

Keep it up DG!
Thanks Guys and gals! ...
I used to keep a kind of blog on facebook, but my competition was scoping it out too much, so I appreciate having somewhere to post/vent/ discuss, whatever, my weekly feelings!!
kinda have a bit of the flu... no lift, jsut cardio today...
and thanks 69 for turning my pictures around! (I was gonna say for setting me straight, but there is jsut too much weird connotation in that sentence)
^^^LOL! You're welcome:) Hope you feel better.
Alrighty then... so 8 weeks until showtime!! and I am ready to GO!! Still feeling strong, dropping weight VERY slow and easy... lots of food still, just with an increase in activity, it's slowly comming off... I hope that translates into a nice easy prep!! lol... I have about 10 pounds to lose, but am not actively "trying" to drop weight yet... so I'm feeling on track.
With the holiday this weekend, I had to go to the YMCA to work out as Elite was closed... it was pretty fun! a nice change of environment! Sometimes that's good for the soul (and ego).. lol I was putting away my dumbells and walked past two guys and one of them said "Holy F#*% that chick is ripped to shit" :)... made me feel pretty good! (and YEAH he was talking about me because I was the only girl in the area)
3 weeks without a cheat. I grabbed a protein bar today for a little mini treat/cheat... Posing with my coach on Monday.. we'll see what he says...
Gymnastics is going good... my routine is comming along... I've given myself 3 weeks to master a front handspring into a one handed cartwheel and immediately into a shushnova to a one handed push up... and if I don't get it in 3 weeks... back to the drawing board on that portion of the routine.
Leigh took these pics about 3 hours ago... I should have pumped up and taken a pee first.. lol whatever... here's the progress
Wow, definitely looking solid.
You've already got quad definition. I'm going to cry now.
Nice DG!! LOVE the legs!!!
WOW-ur progress and attitude are both strong, positive, amazing and contagious!! You look GREAT!! Def. happy for you!! :)
Looking real good! :a+
Look'n good girl!! Keep at it :)
