#speakitintoexistence

If it weren't for my girls Maria & Lisa, I don't know where I'd be! It is SO important to have a strong support system when you are preparing for anything. Fortunately for my friends I learn from my mistakes and I started this blog for this contest prep so that I'm not completely relying on them for support through this.

Last night M and I were talking about USA's... hair, makeup, gold medals, hotel, flights, extensions, you know... I made me super excited about dieting and training!!! I have this really intense exam in about 2 hours, that my entire graduate career is riding on. If I don't get a B on this, then I'm out of grad school. Not because I've done bad on other exams but because you have to maintain a B in each course in order to stay in the program.. and there's only 2 exams. Clearly I'm going on a tangent.

My point is that 1) support systems are a must 2) motivation is key.

My motivation - Valerie Waugaman, google her. She's my phone background, first thing I see in the morning, last thing I see at night. Also, just #speakitintoexistence. M and I are trying something new out, we're just going to talk like we're already there. Like we're already 8% body fat, already tanned and on stage, already holding our gold medal and trophy. We're ready for this and nobody is going to stop us!!

Now back to the test. Oh yeah.... that's where I was going earlier. I can't wait for my workout session after the exam, it is going to be EPIC! Second day of diet (which is going well btw) and first day of training :) :) :) :)
