The long awaited posing suit bottom half arrived this week and now I can obsess about something else! Getting through week five was better than expected, based on the caloric deficit. The four final weeks ahead will bring even more challenges for which I am trying to mentally prepare for.
Training was a relief this week, changing the program to each exercise having a couple of light warmups then doing 3 sets of 15 reps. As an example: my squat going from an average of 225+ dropped to 185 3x/15reps. I dropped my cardio off (hooray) to non-training days, my normal energy level seemed to return by Wednesday. Not sure what coach is doing with my diet, still at 960 per day, there has been talk of a slight change but won't know until Sunday or Monday. Posing seems to be coming along, coach is really putting in some over time......I believe I finally annoyed him by working a piece of gum during the silence of my relaxed pose, lol!! A new experience for both of us, gum is my focus tool!
My life seems to be in increments of 2.5hours (my time between meals), laundry, gardening, grocery store, writing this blog, etc....anything to pass the idle time. I even looked at fabric swatches for my other posing suit for over an hour, pretty much anything that doesn't require a lot of energy but includes a piece of gum!!!
Into the final month we go........
Keep up the hard work! You look awesome! Almost there! You are my inspiration and my biggest hero in life. Love you! Xox
