Back on track and .......
This picture was taking the day after the INBA National Comps.
The amazing photographer was Dallas Olsen and gorgeous assist Lindy Olsen.
Last week brought alot of pain due to some very hard training sessions. This week begins a new challenge of training even harder then the last and I welcome the challenge as that is the thing I love most about weight training.
I spoke to my hubby yesterday and have made a decision to compete again next year. How can I not? It's in my blood and I "need" to do it. Next year brings a different outlook into competing. I have been taking it way to seriously and have been focusing on negatives (it's tough being a perfectionist). Lia actually pointed this out last week when we spoke. So what I did was go back over the pictures and looked at it positively. I found myself looking at the shots through different eyes and saw many aspects of my physique that I was very happy with.
Next year is about competing and relaxing, going with the flow. This means no stress, no looking at negatives only. I need to view the entire picture. It's a new me for sure!!
I really need this in my life to keep me on track with my healthy new way of eating and living. I am a happier and better person now, and with another goal in the horizon, I am motivated to the max.
So I have from now until late December to train hard because we are off on a holiday to Malaysia for two weeks. I will rest over that time and then come back and hammer it yet again.
Hi Deb,
Another great pic. They really are fabulously professional photographs. You look like you just stepped out of the pages of oxygen!
I really like your hot pink top as well!

Hi Deb,
I think dealing with post-comp emotions is the most dificult part of BB. Yes you do need to chill out now, but remember it is OK to become intense again as you need that hunger to succeed in such a demanding activity.
