![]() Check ins from this morning. I have been prepping since November. Letting my body decide when to step on stage & trusting the guidance of my coach. As we are getting closer to the timeline we were aiming for we can start making decisions on what is needed for me to get up there. I’m craving it for sure😅 Last weekend I was given a refeed meal & I was down 2.2lbs at check ins today & some inches. Last time I had this big of a drop was after multiple days of resting from upper body training due to injury & post-refeed. Very interesting to me. I remember my first prep I never had refeeds. Every prep is different & it seems my body is recomping so nicely this time around. Holding shape & muscle while letting fat go. We are down about 10 pounds actually but the visible difference is SO much more valuable than the number which is why I rarely share weight changes. I am enjoying the process & I’m pursuing goals in all other areas of my life. Plus we have maintained a menstrual cycle which I am grateful for. Cardio is up & food is down right now but it’s nothing I can’t manage and it is adding so much to my life. This lifestyle really gives me so much structure & personal time which is highly necessary due to the nature of the work I do where I am always helping, giving, or talking to others. I like my alone time to recharge & competing gives me time to do cardio & time to lift & nourish my body & recover. It’s really amazing. I’ve been competing since 2015 and honestly every year gets better and better. I’ve learned to let go of pressure that doesn’t serve me & embrace the here, now, & whether this will be possible years from now. I’ve also learned to respect my body & her process & I am still young & I have already come so far that to compare myself to the past wouldn’t be as beneficial as investing that energy into where I am and where I’m going. I am so grateful for bodybuilding and can’t imagine living a life without it being part of it in some way. I’m really happy with how prep is going & do appreciate your support🥰 can’t wait to speak at the @angelcompetitionbikinis fashion show expo this weekend. Can’t wait to meet so many amazing women🤗
