Happy friday everyone!
Yes i know its been to long again since i updated. Just not to much to tell, training, dieting etc.
Everything is going great, i had some tummy issues this past week but they seem to have worked themselves out:)
I have a photo shoot coming up on Sunday, weather permitting of course. Its been raining off and on like crazy here! I guess thats what they mean when they say rainy season is here. I mean it doesnt rain, it POURS here! To the point i cant see thru my windsheild with my wipers on high, lol.
Well only 4 weeks to go and yes i am so nervous. My weight hasnt moved a whole lot this past couple weeks but i feel leaner, harder, I have more veins popping out.
I will have to get on the scale tomorrow morning and see how it looking.
As soon as i get them, i will post some of the photos from the shoot on Sunday (weather permitting:)

I have a big month this month! First its Kevins birthday, then, oh god, yes its my 30th birthday on June 15! oh boy... i just dont know where the years have gone, i still feel 24. Then there is a big move.. moving in with Kevin and i am sooo excited! Then off to canada on the 23 to compete on the 30th!
So if i tend to not be on here much i apologize but i will update a couple more times before i leave for home for sure.
Have a superduper weekend all!

Here I sit at work, with a few minutes to spare. The past couple weeks have been Great:)
Diet is going very good and training is still kicking my butt.
I think i am about 5lbs from my goal with 5 weeks to go, I think I am right on track, Jamie seems to think so as well from the photos i have been sending her.
Life has been good on the island, I just had another visitor for the last week, he left on wednesday. Its so nice to have people visit but between me and my roommates we have had a lot of company since March and I must admit it will be nice to have a little break. Hurricane season is pretty much here so I doubt if i will have any visitors till after the summer now.

I am looking forward to Saturday night! I am going out for a cheat meal with my man Kevin. That is one thing we both miss, our dinners out on a weekend. Only 5 weeks to go though!!

Hope you all have a great weekend,

Its been a long time, sorry everyone, i am back!
I had my sister and cousin here for 2 weeks so I didnt have much time to write between training, working, and playing tour guide! Its was so awesome to have family here, they had a blast, they didnt want to leave, of course who could blame them! hehe.

Training and diet are going good. I have started a new diet/training program as of last tues. I dont quite feel like my body has taken to it yet but i am sticking it out. I am doing a carb cycle now, so mon is high, tues is med and wed is NO carbs, then thurs high, frid med and sat/sun no carb. Ya i have to say this Sat / Sunday was HELL! If it wasnt for the awesome man in my life, Kevin, I know i wouldnt have made it thru sunday. I was craving like crazy, I am not sure if it was just in my head (knowing you cant have somting) or if my body really needed carbs. Either way he was my will power. For someone who has never been thru the dieting of a competitor before he is doing great! So supportive and well he does put me in my place when i do have a snappy day, hehe. Thanks babe!

My training is now in tune with my diet, weights on high / med carb days and jsut cardio on no carb days and sundays off.
I am excited to be booking my flights tonight to fly home for the show. Kind of scary though, makes it all final, feeling a little stressed. I really need my weight to drop more and i still need to find someone here to do my alterations of my suits.
I have started having all those silly dreams already....
you know the ones... you show up at the show without a suit, or you forget to tan, or you arent lean enough, or you forgot to dehydrate....lol....

This is going to be a fun busy summer! I head home to compete end of June, spend a little time with my family and head back to the island for about 3 weeks. August long weekend i head back to Canada to meet up with Kevin and off to the shuswaps of British Columbia for a wedding!! I cant wait to sit around a campfire, roast marshmellows and make smores!!hehe.

Ok I am procrastinating now.... i need to get my butt to the grocery store and then hit the gym for my Leg workout.... arghhh... i hate training legs. I have kevin meeting me tonight to train with me though, i know if i train with him he wont let me skip any sets.
I am up to doing 4 sets of everything now.... god my body is getting tired already!lol

THIS ISNT GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE.. I JUST NEED TO VENT...
I AM SITTING HERE FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF. I REALLY LOVE THE DIET/TRAINING BUT MAN IT CUTS YOUR SOCIAL LIFE, AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH PEOPLE SAY THEY UNDERSTAND, THEY REALLY DONT UNLESS THEY HAVE DONE IT. HATS OFF TO THEM FOR TRYING THOUGH.
ITS JUST BEEN A BUSY DAY.... WORKED A BIT, PLAYED TOURIST GUIDE THEN HAD TO TRAIN. I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO ACUALLY GOING OUT FOR A BIT OF SOCIAL TIME TONIGHT, BUT I DIDNT GET HOME TILL ABIT LATER AFTER THE GYM AND I HAD TO HELP ONE OF MY GIRLS WITH HER DYE AND JUST RELAX AND REASURE HER ABIT, THEN BBQ MY TUNA. EVERYONE WAS READY TO HEAD OUT BEFORE I EVEN GOT SHOWERED. NO PROBLEM... SAID I WOULD JUST MEET UP WITH THEM. I WENT TO GO AND THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE I AM NOT IN THE MOOD TO WONDER THRU A CROWD LOOKING FOR PEOPLE.. SO I CAME HOME AND NOW I AM SITTING HER THINKING ABOUT A BOX OF FUDGEO COOKIES THAT I CANT HAVE! OK I AM REALLY OK, I AM JUST FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF AND WHAT I PROBABLY REALLY NEED IS A GOOD SLEEP..
I AM EXCITED AND SO NERVOUS FOR TOMORROW. MY GIRLS DEB AND NADINE COMPETE TOMORROW IN FIGURE!!
I HAVE TO BE UP EARLY, 6:30, TO DO MY CARDIO THEN DREAM TAN DEB BEFORE SHE GOES TO GET HER HAIR/MAKEUP DONE.
I HAVE TO SAY THE GIRLS HAVE DONE SO GOOD BUT NOW I KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE ON THE OTHER END OF THINGS.... TRYING TO RELAX THEM, KEEP THEM POSITIVE AND JUST LISTEN WHEN THEY FREAK OUT A LITTLE. OH AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT WHOLE DYE THING... THANK YOU TO GLEN FOR ALL THOSE YEARS OF THAT! HAHA.... I THINK MY HANDS WILL BE BLACK FOR A WEEK! HEHE

I GUESS IN A WAY I AM FREAKING OUT A LITTLE ABOUT THE WAY I LOOK... I AM HAPPY WITH MY PROGRESS BUT I JUST REALIZED I ONLY HAVE 8 WEEKS LEFT AND I WANT TO DROP AT LEAST ANOTHER 8 LBS.... HITTING THE CARDIO UP A LITTLE HARDER NOW AND I FEEL IT. I AM A LOT MORE SORE AND TIRED, PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. I JUST WANT TO LOOK MY BEST, TO GO ALL THE WAY HOME JUST TO COMPETE, I HAVE TO MAKE IT WORTH MY WHILE.

OK ON A POSITIVE NOTE..
THE DAY WAS A GOOD ONE.. WE GOT MY SISTER AND COUSIN OUT PARASAILING AND SEADOOING AND SOME GOOD BEACH TIME IN TODAY, I THINK THEY HAD A PRETTY GOOD DAY!
IT IS NICE TO HAVE MY SISTER HERE, SURE MISSED MY FAMILY.
I HAVE A FEW PICS FROM THE DAY I WILL POST ON MY GALLERY TONIGHT.

ALRIGHT I KIND OF FEEL BETTER... STILL WANT THAT BAG OF FUDGEOS THOUGH! HEHE... BUT I WILL BE OK.. WILL POWER!!

HELLO EVERYONE! YES I AM STILL ALIVE! HEHE.... JUST BEEN SUPER BUSY.
WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF COMPANY THE PAST 2 WEEKS, MY ROOMY AMBERS HAS 3 FRIENDS HERE SO ITS BEEN TOUGH TO GET SOME DOWN TIME TO CHILL ON MY DECK AND DO SOME JOURNALING.
I AM SOOO EXCITED, MY OLDER SISTER KRISTINA AND MY COUSIN RHONDA ARE ON THEIR WAY HERE FROM ALBERTA TOMORROW!! THEY ARRIVE TOMORROW NIGHT AT 9PM. ITS MY SISTERS FIRST REAL VACATION AND FIRST TIME EVER SEEING THE OCEAN! TOMORROW WONT GO BY FAST ENOUGH FOR ME, I AM SO HAPPY TO HAVE SOME FAMILY COMING TO VISIT!

OK SO ABOUT THE DIET/TRAINING. EVERYTHING IS COMING ALONG GREAT I THINK. I HAD A BIT OF A BAD DAY SUNDAY, SMALL BREAKDOWN BUT ALL GOOD NOW. JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS I FELT I WASNT WHERE I NEED TO BE AND WANTED TO QUIT... BUT OF COURSE I DIDNT! I HAVE SOME GREAT PEOPLE HERE AROUND ME TO ENCOURAGE ME AND KICK ME IN THE BUTT WHEN I AM FEELING LIKE THAT. IT DEFINILTY DIFFERENT NOT HAVING THE SAME PEOPLE AROUND ME AS THE PAST YEARS COMPETING (Bernice). I DO MISS THEM ALL, BUT LIKE I SAID I HAVE MADE SOME GREAT ENCOURAGING FRINEDS HERE. I STILL TALK TO A FEW OF THE GIRLS BACK HOME AND THEY SURE MOTIVATE ME, ESPECIALLY JAMIE SENUK. IF IT WASNT FOR HER HELPING ME WIHT MY DIET AND TRAINING I DONT THINK I WOULD BE DOING THIS. THANKS GIRL!!!

WELL I WAS OFF TO FT. LAUDERDALE 2 WEEKENDS AGO, IT WAS GREAT TO GET OFF THE ROCK FOR A FEW DAYS!! I WENT WITH MY FRIEND NADINE, WE JUST HIT THE GYM AND SHOPPED SHOPPED SHOPPED!

I HAD A GREAT LEG WORKOUT TONIGHT, I WAS SO DAMN RED IN THE FACE I LOOKED LIKE A TOMATOE! THIS TRAINING IS SUCH HIGH INTENSITY BUT I LOVE IT.
I AM STARTING TO DO MY MORNING CARDIO THIS WEEK, I KNOW I WILL START TO DROP FOR SURE ONCE I GET THE CARDIO GOING. I AM HAPPY WITH HOW I AM DOING BUT I REALLY FEEL LIKE I NEED TO START DROPPING MORE NOW. I FIGURE IF I CAN DROP ANOTHER 10LBS BY THE TIME I DEHYDRATE THEN DROP ABOUT 4LBS OF WATER I SHOULD BE LOOKING GOOD.

THIS WEEKEND COMING UP IS THE BODYBUILDING/FIGURE SHOW HERE IN CAYMAN. I HAVE 2 AWESOME GIRLS I HAVE BEEN GETTING READY FOR FIGURE, I AM SO DAMN NERVOUS FOR THEM, BUT THEY LOOK AMAZING!
ITS NADINES SECOND SHOW HERE AND DEBS FIRST SHOW EVER. IT WILL TAKE MOST MY WEEKEND HELPING THEM OUT BUT IT SURE HAD HELPED KEEP ME MOTIVATED AS WELL. WE HAVE ALL BEEN MEETING EVERY SATURDAY AFTER WE TRAIN AND TAKING PICUTRES AND JUST HANGING OUT. I AM VERY PROUD OF BOTH GIRLS, THEY HAVE TRAINED THEIR BUTTS OFF AND THEIR DIETING HAS BEEN PHENONMINAL! VERY DEDICATED GALS.
I WILL POST PICTURES OF THE SHOW EARLY NEXT WEEK FOR SURE. HOPING TO GET UP SOME BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES OF BOTH GIRLS AS WELL IN THE SUCCESS SECTION OF THE WEBSITE.

I am so sorry, i havent updated in a long while. I promise to update very very soon!

HEY ALL!
OH WHAT A LONG DAY, BUT A GOOD DAY. MET MY FRIEND JAMIE TODAY AND HEADED OUT ON A HOBBY CAT, ITS A SMALL LITTLE SAIL BOAT. WE DECIDED TO LEARN TO SAIL, LOL. WE HAVE BEEN OUT ON IT ONCE BEFORE WITH A GUY SHE WORKS WITH AND SHE HAS BEEN OUT A FEW TIMES WITH HIM ON HER OWN. WE FIGURED WE WOULD BE OK, AND IF NOT THE BOYS WHO WORK THE BEACH AND RENT THEM OUT WOULD COME RESCUE US. WELL WE WERE DOING QUITE WELL, WE GOT TURNED AROUND, GOT THE SAIL FLIPPED AND STARTED HEADING IN AND I GUESS WE WERENT PAYING ENOUGH ATTENTION WHEN SUDDENLY A GUST OF WIND CAUGHT US AND WE WERENT LEANING BACK FAR ENOUGH. THE NOSE OF THE BOAT DOVE DOWN AND OVER WE WENT, YUP WE FLIPPED THE BOAT!
NOW THIS WOULDNT HAVE BEEN TO BIG A DEAL IF WE KNEW HOW TO FLIP IT BACK OVER BUT UNFORTUNATLY THIS WASNT SOMTHING WE HAD LEARNED YET. WE DRIFTED FOR ABOUT 15 MIN BEFORE ONE OF THE DIVE BOATS SAW US AND RADIOED IN TO GET ONE OF THE GUYS TO COME OUT AND RESCUE US. ONCE THEY SHOWED US HOW TO TURN THE BOAT OVER ALL WAS GOOD. LESSON LEARNED. CANT WAIT TO HEAD OUT AGAIN AND SEE WHAT ELSE WE CAN LEARN, HEHE... HOPEFULLY WE WONT BE SWIMMING WITH THE FISHES NEXT TIME.

SO THAT WAS MY MORNING, THEN IT WAS OFF TO PLAY IN OUR SUNDAY BEACH VOLLEYBALL LEAGUE, WHAT A LONG DAY. WE PLAYED FROM 2:30-6PM, CONTINUOUS GAMES. WASNT OUR BEST DAY OF BALL BUT WE FAIRED OK. I TOOK A VOLLEYBALL CLINIC ON SATURDAY WITH A PRO COACH THAT CAME DOWN TO THE ISLAND TO HELP WITH THE NATIONAL VOLLEYBALL LEAGUE, SO I WAS TRYING TO HONE IN ON SOME OF THE THINGS HE TAUGHT US.
I AM SUPPOSE TO BE AT BASEBALL TONIGHT, OUR TEAM HAD A GAME RIGHT AFTER VOLLEYBALL BUT I AM POOPED!! AND THIS IS SUPOSE TO BE MY "OFF DAY" FROM TRAINING.... BOY I SURE DONT FEEL LIKE I HAD ONE.
I MUST BE TIRED TO MISS BASEBALL THOUGH! I HAVE TO BRAG A LITTLE, I AM LEADING MY CO-ED BASEBALL TEAM IN HOMERUNS AND RBI'S!!

DIET IS GOING GOOD AND TRAINING IS STILL EXHAUSTING ME! I DONT FEEL LIKE I HAD AS GOOD A WEEK WITH MY DIET LAST WEEK BUT THIS WEEK I WILL BE 110%. I HAVENT HAD ANY CHEAT OTHER THAN A LITTLE EXTRA OATMEAL BUT I KNOW THIS STILL MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE SO THIS WEEK I WILL FOLLOW MY DIET FROM JAMIE TO A T! I AM JUST IMPRESSED WITH MYSELF FOR NOT HAVING CHEATED ON ANY SUGAR OR BAD FOOD, USUALLY BY NOW I HAVE AT LEAST SNUCK A LITTLE CHOC OR SOMTHING.

I AM OFF TO FT.LAUDERDALE APRIL 13 - 16 WITH MY FRINED NADINE!!! SOOOO EXCITED TO GET OFF THE ISLAND FOR A FEW DAYS AND DO A LITTLE SHOPPING! I HAVE BEEN GETTING A LITTLE ISLAND FEVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS SO A FEW DAYS OFF THIS ROCK WILL BE NICE, SHOULD TIDE ME OVER TILL I HEAD HOME IN JUNE FOR A WEEK AND A HALF.
WELL THIS IS ABOUT ALL I HAVE TO TELL YOU ALL.
TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY BACK HOME, I MISS YOU ALL AND CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU IN JUNE!!! DONT FORGET TO GET TICKETS TO MY SHOW IN EDMONTON JUNE 30!! JUST CALL TICKETMASTER.

HEY GUYS!
THIS WILL BE SHORT AND SWEET...I THINK. I AM EXHAUSTED, I DIDNT SLEEP MUCH LASTNIGHT, JUST HAD A LATE NIGHT AND WELL YOU KNOW HOW IT IS WHEN DIEITNG, YOU DONT SLEEP IN MUCH..GOT TO EAT!!! LOL
I HAVE A VISITOR DOWN AGAIN, JASON. JUST HERE WED TILL MONDAY. ME AND KEVIN HEADED OUT TO A BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR MY GIRLFRIEND BRANDY LASTNIGT, OF COURSE I DRANK MY DIET COKE AND WATER BUT WE WERE OUT TILL ABOUT 12(LATE FOR THIS GAL) AND THEN I JUST DIDNT GET TO SLEEP TILL 2, UP AT 7:30AM...HAD TO EAT!

THE DIET IS GOING SO GOOD! I CANT BELIEVE HOW GOOD I HAVE BEEN SO FAR, I THINK HAVING JAMIE TO ANSWER TO IS A GOOD THING FOR ME. THE TRAINING IS GOING VERY GOOD BUT I HAVE TO ADMIT IT IS KILLING MY LEGS! I DO A LOT OF PLYO AND LUNGES PRETTY MUCH EVERY WORKOUT, BUT ITS A GREAT WORKOUT, I AM SO OUT OF BREATH AND ENERGY I COULDNT DO MUCH CARDIO EVEN IF SHE WANTED ME TO.
I HAVE NEVER STARTED DIETING AND NOT DONE CARDIO BEFORE, BUT SINCE I STARTED WITH JAMIE LAST WEEK SHE HAS CUT MY CARDIO WAYYYYYY DOWN!!! LIKE MAYBE A 1/2HR A DAY. BUT WITH THE PROGRAM I AM DOING I AM GETTING PLENTY. I AM SURE WE WILL SLOWLY INCREASE IT AS MY BODY PLATEAUS WITH THE DIET BUT TIME WILL TELL. I HAVE TO SAY ITS JUST AWESOME TO BE SEEING RESULTS SO FAST AND NOT KILLING MYSELF WITH CARDIO ALREADY.

TOMORROW IS MY OFF DAY FROM CARDIO AND WEIGHTS, BUT I HAVE TO PLAY BEACH VOLLEYBALL 2PM-5PM THEN I HAVE A BASEBALL GAME AT 6:30, NOT SURE IF THAT IS REALLY MUCH OF A DAY OFF, LOL. IF NOTHING ELSE I WILL SLEEP WELL TOMORROW AND I WILL BE IN BED EARLY!
SPEAKING OF BED, I AM GOING FOR A SIESTA! I WAS AT THE GYM THIS MORNING AND THEN TOOK JASON SHOPPING AND SNORKELING, SEEMS LIKE ITS BEEN A FULL DAY ALREADY.

I ALSO WANT TO THANK THOSE THAT HAVE SENT EMAILS WITH POSITIVE THOUGTHS FOR ME, YOU KNOW IT REALLY DOES MOTIVATE ME TO KNOW SOMEONE OUT THERE IS ROOTING FOR ME AND FOLLOWING MY PROGRESS.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

TRAIN HARD
