12 days to go!

I am 12 days to go to my show. I have already sent in my paper work so I am now commited. No backing out now. I decided to quit crying about how I look and just work as hard as I can. I am getting up there no matter what, I can only do the best I can so need to just go with it. I seem to stay about the same from 5 weeks out down to 3 weeks out. Then these last couple of weeks my body starts to catch up with my training and I see the most progress. I am still hoping to lose 5-6 more lbs by the day of. Everything is looking great. I just have a hard time toning up around my belly where my pregnancies had an effect. Once I lose the last little bit, it looks a lot better. 

These last couple of weeks have seem to be the hardest ever.

Here is a sample of what I am eating:

Meal 1: (before cardio) applesauce and supplements

Meal  2: egg white omelet with spinach (or boiled eggs) 1/2 cup oats with cinnamon and flax

weight training (I do best when I eat in between cardio and weight training)

Meal 3: post workout isowhey protein fuel

Meal 4: protein, carb, veggie

Meal 5: egg, veggie

Meal 6: protein, veggie, salad + supplements 

Meal 7: If I am hungry-protein shake and rice cake

My gallon of water a day-sometimes it's really hard to get that gallon. I sometimes drink herbal tea or postum :) kinda makes things a little easier. 

I am so so so craving chocolate right now. This time around I am not thinking about all the unhealthy stuff I am going to indulge in afterwards. I have not had as many bad cravings this time around. I am looking forward to peanut butter and banana's. I also just want dark chocolate. Just one square :) Well TTFN back to training. I am going to walk around the house today wearing my heels. Also, my sweet mother in law took my suit and has been working on it for me, blinging it up some more. She is awesome.
