Ok well it has been along time since my last entry and man I can't believe time has gone by so fast. I am looking at 8 weeks out and feel like before you know it Tampa will be on my coat tails.

I have been super busy with a short but sweet vacation to VA Beach for a wedding, soccer, school(for the kids) and work as well as trying to get my personal training and Ambassador training going. Man if only they would grant me more hours in the day.

I am trying to branch out and volunteer some of my time with the Boys and Girls Club--totally looking forward to starting that.

I am currently working with a great kid--I call her a kid because she is 10 years younger than I am --which really does not make her a kid but you know what I mean and she will be competing in her first competition in November in the Bikini Class--she is an amazing lady!!!


Well I am off to get some grub on the table for the family and I promise to stay on top of this.............

Well it is finally Wednesday and I have decided to only compete in Tampa this fall(November). I really wanted to go to Vegas but with the hubby leaving for the Persian Gulf 3 days after the show he is not to keen on the idea that I would be gone for 4 days right before he leaves for 7 months. This week has been for the most part really good--my eating has been spot on. I did have my cheat meal on Monday night. So now I don't get another one until next week. It does not really matter all that much with my diet being so open but still clean anyway. I contacted Oxygen on Monday and I sent in all my info hopefully fingers crossed they will select me for an up and coming fitness article. I guess time will tell. I am still waiting on the Olympia results as far as being selected on going to work that trade show. I am optimistic but also a realist at the same time--with no current experience I may not be what they are looking for.
I am looking forward to Thursday-- a day with the kids after my client and I have 1 class in the morning. Other than that life is good. Friday I will teach Spin at the Country Club and then I am off to the base(Mayport) and I have Weight Training for Women. The kids have beach agility training on Friday night--I am hoping that I can get in on as well. Will let you all know how that goes........

The Beginning

Ok well I am starting this blog to document my journey into the world of fitness modeling. I was not planning on starting this early this morning but I was awaken by the sounds of a cat throwing up. Oh the glamorous life I lead! So I am up way to early and that means that my day has started--trying to go back to bed at this point would be useless. So I have had my breakfast-- @ 5:30am Apple, 1/2 cup oatmeal and 5 egg whites. I will defiantly be adding coffee to that list as well. My husband is gone on the boat and not sure when he will be home so today my kids and I will be off to the gym just so I can get some hard core cardio banged out and then maybe some Shark Tooth hunting later on this afternoon. I have submited my story to Oxygen this morning so who knows what will happen next but I am in control. It has to be a clear desision to promote me if I want to make a go of this as a career.
