2% is the amount of body fat I have to loose every week up until the competition. If it wasn't serious before, it is definitely now. Putting it in numbers means something completely different than what this has ever meant to me before. I am currently at 35% body fat which on a female is obese. There is no beating around the bush there. It is time for a change. But on a lighter note, I am also 14 weeks away from the show which my coach says it is definitely do-able. Cardio is now up to twice a day, 6 days a week. And we a gonna mix it up a little more; not for time but just for doing it and pushing myself to the next level. This will be tough but I know I can do it.
Sorry this is short but I am watching the 3 hour finale of America's Biggest Loser! This show is so inspiring and I can't wait to have just some results like them to be noticed again. Although, my coach did say my face looks thinner, haha all is a step in the right direction. Have a great night!

Sorry for going awol... again.
Hello everyone. First off I would like to clear it up that since I have not written in days it does not mean that I missed my workouts. I think this week is the most religious I have been with it since I started. Having a workout partner is the best decision that I ever made! It is so great to have someone there cause I would not be working myself that hard without MJ there.
On a downer, I really haven't been all that great with the meal plan. I am making healthy decisions for myself but not according to the diet. I find it really hard to make sure I get 3 meals a day let alone 6. Hopefully I will be able to tackle that this week. I think my mind is wrapped around gaining weight. I know that if I were to consume 6 meals a day even with the workouts I've been doing, I will still gain weight. I just can not fathom doing something so good for myself like exercising and ruining it by eating. Weight has always been in the back of my mind and I know it has crept back on me in the past few years; I just don't want to get "fat" again :o(

Hello hello hello.
So I think it has been apparent that I haven't written in quite some time. This week has been very hard for me to get motivated and get to the gym. I have but just not as much as I should have been. That will all change tomorrow because my friend has mapped out the entire week of when we will be hitting the gym (thank goodness!) I also told her that I need to up the intensity a little bit and she completely agreed which is great too because I really need to start seeing results. Mentally and emotionally and physically (some what) I am starting to really feel great but I need to get full into it or I can already tell I will drop it quickly. I feel like there are too many things working against me, financially I think is the hardest. All the food, shakes and supplements (which I haven't even began with) are going to cost an arm and a leg but essentially what will get me to the next level. So much to think about and it would be definitely a lot easier if I had some extra cash rolling around. We'll see how the next week goes! I definitely need to get my head wrapped around this more, that is for sure!
