1 Full Month of CSF

Well the month of Jan it done and over and I have been on the CSF program for about 6 weeks now and I am really seeing some serious changes in my body. I can totally attribute that to my diet. I am seriously eating a BUNCH more than I ever have in my life. I seriously thought that my portions were good and they were I was just indulging too much. Everything is slimming out and I have not cut anything out of my diet.

I have eaten chicken wings and my microwave popcorn that I love so much but I have it in LESS moderation than I was having it before. I think one day I ate 4 bags in a sitting because I was watching television and it just tasted so good. Anyway I have learned even more about portion control and the true meaning of Clean Eating! I can really say that I am happy about that and the more I learn the more well rounded of a person I become. I have started a FB challenge for Clean Eating and I am totally excited about it. It has grocery lists recipes and everything it's going to be pretty cool! The best part is that I have the most challengers ever and it's FREE so I know people are eating that up! I love love love it when people want to get healthy! It makes me so happy and even if it doesn't click the first time around most people that come across my path eventually get it and create their own way with it which pleases me and gives me such a sense of warmth inside. That's really what it is all about taking in the information and making it your own and doing what works for you :). I only have my experience to what works but have tons of general information that you can plug into and make your own.

So I digressed BIG time there. This past weekend I had the pleasure of joining the Cathy Savage Camp where we learned a TON about competitions. How to pose, walk, eat, what to do, when to do it and we got an assessment from Cathy herself which was really awesome! It was totally worth the money and I was able to hang out with some super awesome people. I mean you would think (well me being me) that you are going to COMPETE against these women and it should be ugly because this one won a world title or that one placed in her show but it wasn't catty AT ALL. I have met some of the SWEETEST women in one place. The girls weren't even this nice in the Army or the Coast Guard, but living with people is a totally different monster to tackle lol (benefit of the doubt). If you want discipline and don't want to do a beachbody program because you are more into the gym I would totally say that this is the way to go :) Well here are my end of the month progress pic. Enjoy!

Sunday Session @ CS Fitness!!!!

OH MY GAHHHHHHHH! I woke up at 7 AM this morning made my breakfast and started the 1 hour voyage to the Cathy Savage Studio! WOW! I was all riddled with anxiety at what the girls looked like, if they were going to be snooty, or just look at me like SHE wants to compete?! I guess sometimes when you see the beauty that is on the stage you get kind of FREAKED out because there is this "unsaid" thing that pretty, skinny girls are snobs. I totally fell into judgment but more for myself. Well I walked in all shaky (I know I am silly) and I said hello saw Cathy right away and signed in! THIS girl had to shake her hands a bit to write on the paper LOL.

So at first it was like being in an elevator where you are looking around trying to avoid people and eye contact. One of the girls said hello to me and we hit it off right away and I felt so much more at ease. She told me about her first competition after the birth of her son and how I am starting at a good place and what not. THEN we started!

It was all good at first a few sprint drills, walking up and down the gym much like they are in the video. Then it was ALL IN THE LEGS! HOLY CULO! It was intense! I thought I was going to get sick one time! I wouldn't let myself do it. 1.) The other girls weren't and 2.) I am competing against some of these girls. NO WAY I am going to WIN! ha ha ha! Maybe not really but I pride myself in my fitness and I am NOT going to give up even though for real I wanted to sit the hell down and breath! WOWZA is all I can say. So check this out! This chick is tricky! She almost cools us down right (I can breathe again) and then we start on freaking squat thingies and lateral hops to the side and plie squats in bouces OH MY LORD my legs were not thinking at that point! SHEESH she got me good! ha ha ha!

Then it was off to posing. I had more fun there and realized THIS is what I am here for! TO get in the best shape of my life, get into those heels and rock the HELL out of that swimsuit for myself and the people that are watching me! I realized right there and then when I saw myself walk that I wanted this! No more skipping meals, no more not planning. I am IN THIS I am going to freaking compete and be a ROCKSTAR!!!! I am so excited that I found this team and glad to be a part of such wonderful women!!!!!! AMAZING!
