12 weeks out

Being less then 12 weeks out now just reminded me of my 12 week challenge that I started in March 06. I remember how well and on top of it I was. And the results showed.
So now the stakes are higher, I am actually going to work towards getting on stage and competing, this means working towards a dream I have wanted for many years.
I have been through so much in the last month and have had a lot to deal with and come to terms with and I think it has been getting in the way of my focus and goals towards this comp. So the reality of it is, I need to put that aside for a while and just move on with my dream to compete so I dont have regrets. Regrets are the LAST thing I need to come out of this right now.
So my lastest update is that I have narrowed down my search for a contest bikini down to two. And out of those two i have a favorite. I will wait to see what Jo thinks when she returns from Thailand.
I am looking for songs, I have found a couple but need to look around some more incase the one I like doesn't work out for me.
Training is perfect, I love picking up weights so I generally have a kick-ass session at the gym.
Cardio is going really well too. My fitness levels are increasing and it gives me a major high, which then motivates me to be the best I can.
Nutrition has been generally good from 16 weeks out. But from Monday it has been nothing short of perfect. I have lost 2 kilos in four weeks. I am trekking well there.
Posing still needs help lol. I have been practising and know that I can only improve. I need two really focus on facing the opposite direction and getting the feel of it.
Basically since last Monday (only a couple of days ago) I hit the switch and have gone into that zone I used to be in. In that zone I find motivation, determination, focus, drive and the want to succeed.
I will keep you posted on how im doing :-)

Things are coming along now!! How exciting!
Sounds like you have your head in the right place, that's great to hear.
Posing appears so hard, I'm sure it will get a lot easier as time goes on and you practice.
Enjoy the rest of your week!! :)

Let's just hope we havent picked out the same bikini....after all we do have the same shoes :D Glad to hear that everything is going well. I too have flicked that switch and am in comp mode. I'm not worrying about anything else but comp at the moment - it dominates my every thought (damn I even DREAM about it!)
