Last week’s check in… it’s true what they say – the changes you can see 👀 really start to come together in the final 3 weeks.
Not much to report besides checking the boxes. Cardio. Lift. Eat. Work. Fun. Sleep. Repeat.
The grind has started. Cardio upped to 60 minutes daily which ain’t nothing but a chicken 🐔 wing 🪽 for this former cardio queen 👸. Food was cut last week too by a whopping 6 grams! Woo hoo! Carbs are still in triple digits!
Mindset – people ask if I’m excited. And right now, it’s nervous excitement. It’s as though all of my diet and exercise effort over the last 30 years have brought me here… yes! I’ve been dieting and exercising for 30 years with only down times when I had illness or injury. I have never been the person to not workout. Working out was my stress outlet when I realized I could exercise out my demons 👹(or so I thought, which is another post for another day).
Despite being nervous, I’m quite calm. Perhaps it’s the yoga I’ve been doing which heavily focuses on how you think affects how you flow.
I also attended my first breath work class with an amazing guide. I had no idea what to expect and usually very skeptical of the unknown but I decided to go with it; follow my gut and the experience was transformative for me, in the most unexpected way.
I also attribute my calm to my support tribe – my husband @808lekeli whose been picking up the slack and cooking my food. My coaches @stephanieayala7 and @bigirish_teamdynasty for believing in me and providing a blueprint to realize a lifelong goal of mine; my friends who also include my clients, all who have held space for me when we lost our Kobe and for all the cheers they give me as I gear up for show day. And for my team gal pal @nokomis_chick_getting_fit whose been right by my side the entire way, as she also grinds it toward her show goal too!
I got my suit. I booked my hair and makeup with @katiegirl47_hi and now we just keep keeping on. My new lift block starts tomorrow and I’m a little fearful. But I just heard this saying…
Fear is like fire 🔥. It can either warm up your entire house or burn it to the ground.
13 days to fire 🔥 it 🆙❤️💪🏾
