First contest prep meeting with my coach!

So today was my first meeting with Gina (my coach). I've met her before, twice actually, but never worked with her. Today we did that. She took me through just a little bit of posing...don't be deceived. This is much harder than it looks! Now I know. We discussed my plan, what's worked so far and what hasn't. She also ran through some exercises with me which was great because even though I have good form, I was not doing some of the exercises quite right so this will definitely help me make bigger gains since my form will be better.

As far as my meal plan goes, it's very similar to what I was doing but for this week there will be no pork except for one meal and also no chicken. My love for veggies will continue to blossom! LOL!

My workouts will be similar but with a couple of tweaks. My cardio will be a little bit more but not by much.

A few people have asked me how I feel about starting my contest prep. I'm not nervous or scared. I do feel challenged and that's good. I'm actually excited and I know it's going to be an interesting journey. I'll write more tomorrow when I begin my contest prep. For now I have to go make sure my food is ready for tomorrow and I definitely need to get in bed early.

I was going to move my blog to WordPress but I think I'm going to leave it right where it is since I know I'm really not going to have time to do WordPress any justice. And maybe, just maybe, I'll make it public. I haven't decided for sure but all of you will still have access no matter what. You will all be the first to know of any changes.

Hope all of you had a great weekend and until tomorrow...stay safe and be happy! And so it begins...
