The difference between wanting, and taking action.

Today I realized that I was being one of those people.  People who say that something is important to them, but do almost everything that it takes to get there....and then fall short just as they could potentially reach their goal.  I've been working out with Ben Bruno, and relearning quite a few things that I thought I knew, pushing myself in the gym, and going for the best body I have ever had in my life.  I've been improving my eating, but this week Ben, and Bret Contreras (who is also my fitness mentor, lucky me:) both told me that it's time to clean up my eating habits which in the past week have included 4 cupcakes, 2 cookies, and three chocolate bars.......not optimal.  So I made excuses, and complained about my lack of appetite etc, but at the end of the day I have a choice, and if I really want to look amazing, I have to treat myself a little better.  Phase two of Miss Bikini Universe, time to eat healthy:)

Miss Bikini Universe

Lately I have been so busy.....I started a new business in August, and just like everyone says....It takes up all of your free time.  I love what I do, but I have noticed that my weight training has become a little less super focused and hardcore, and a little more...in and out in 20 minutes.  I know that I can get away with this every once in a while, but I think that doing this day in and day out, will eventually manifest itself in a less than perfect body.  My nutrition has also become lax, and I find myself reaching for the sugar again and again.  I'm one of those people who just functions so much better with a plan, so I have decided to enter myself into the Miss Bikini Universe contest this June, which will take place in Miami.  I am not going on a strict diet, but I plan to: drink at least 64 oz of water a day, take a multi vitamin, eat 4-6 small meals per day, have only one glass of wine per week, have two cheat meals per week, and consume less sugar, and more protein per day.  I will also be lifting super heavy to make my body as toned as possible!
