So the last 2 or 3 weeks have been a little rough. No cheating on my diet or anything, everything is still on point in that aspect. Mentally however, it's been difficult. I was feeling completely drained. My joints, muscles and bones were feeling really achey. Getting through a workout was sometimes so difficult that it brought tears to my eyes. I didn't quit and I still showed up. Even when doubt and negative thoughts were screaming in my head with every step I took to walk into that gym, I still showed up. I have one day off a week and even then, I still have cardio to get done. This was and IS a choice. I'm determined to KNOW that I gave it my all when I step on that stage and that I didn't cut any corners. I never want ANYONE to question my dedication to this. I want to make my friends and family proud. And most importantly, I want to prove to myself that I can do this.
So here it is. Here's the difference between 16 weeks out, my first day of this prep, and 6 weeks out.
I can't wait to see the results at the end of this prep! 5 1/2 weeks to go!!!
