So. My goal for the past three months was to loose 20 pounds of body fat. The last 10 days, Sparklebutt decided it would be “FUN” for me to eat like I was training for a competition. It worked, but holy hell – let’s not do that again.
Results: I’ve lost a total of 38 pounds. In the three months, I lost 17.3 pounds of body fat – 7 of those pounds in the last ten days. I’m extremely happy with my results. =) I’m finally getting the idea that I can actually do this.
I also realized today that I’ve lost 20 pounds since March 1st, which is when I started eating clean. I feel so much better and have so much more energy than I did before, it really is amazing.
I have to say that the vain little girl inside me was pretty pleased when Sparklebutt was gushing about my progress. She seems to think that by this time next year, or even later this year, I could be competing. I think I still have a fat-girl block in my head about the idea of a figure competition, but I do recognize that I have the ability to get to the point that I COULD compete if I wanted to – which I think is the whole point. Maybe when I get to that point, I will have the confidence to do so, but if not, I will still have accomplished a shit-ton of awesomeness.
