Gettin' Closer To.... SHOW TIME!!!

Phew... only halfway done!... I still have to go back to the gym tonite to finish up my nite cardio session. Wait, did i complain? NO! As tired, cranky and fatigued as I am .... I LOVE IT. It was snowing sideways this morning when I went out for my morning run. After my breakfast and coffee the temperature had dropped by about 10 degrees. On the way home from the gym this afternoon I thought my hands could possibly fall right off. That could have been because I decided to be 'smart' and not wear any gloves.
There is this great fresh produce bodega near my house. The vegetables are very fresh, crisp and full of flavor. They are almost 1/3 of the price you would pay at a grocery store, AND they haven't been touched and sneezed on by everyone under the sun!
I swear the lady behind the register thinks I have about 5 kids or that I have a tape worm!!! I buy about 9 heads of lettuce, 20 onions, 12 yams, 6 heads of broccoli, 2 cauliflower, 20 assorted cukes, peppers and the like per week!!!!!!!! and lug it all out in a back pack. I barely spend $20 for all of this! can you believe it!?
Well, right about now Im exhausted and that 1/4 cup of oats i had at 9:30am is long gone by now. I am starting to get that 'contest itch' where the rest of the world dissapears and nothing floods my mind like gettin on stage. For right now It will have to be all dreams, becasue if I don't lay down I won't be able to finish cardio after work tonite.
I'm Leaner... I'm Meaner... and well.... Tired as Heck!
It must be Gettin' closer to ..... SHOW TIME!!!

Hi! I really like your blog so far. Keep posting... I just started competing myself (first comp was in Oct.) after losing about 25 lbs last year. I've been searching the web for inspiration...I've planned to enter another comp locally in May, and I'm just not feeling motivated yet, and I question how well I can really look...it's so easy to doubt myself.
What keeps you going?

As cheesy as it sounds... WINNING and being the best I can be! Doing something most of the American Population can't do! Being different than other woman and Helping others to see they can acheive their own goals!
