ck2006 said:Happy Birthday Girl! How is you week going now?![]()
Aries13 said:THANKS!!!!!!![]()
This week sucks as much as the other one... and I think next week will be even harder... but after that all I have is to prep for finals and IM DONE![]()

I WANT a Pic of this NOW!!!!!Aries13 said:OMG I just woke up not too long ago. WTF?.... I ate and started studying... the next thing I know I wake up with my folder over my head.. mascara everywhere ... hair all up in the air...looking like the wicked witch of the east and shit. All this stress must've wiped my a$$ out... GEEZ![]()
I dont think Ill make it to the gym... I have 5 chapters of Human physiology to get down to a T.... the test is gonna be soooo hard and Im so damn behid. UGHHHH![]()


scorpiogirl said:Happy birthday, Sweetie! THIS is waiting for you AFTER the show! lol

*Bunny* said:I WANT a Pic of this NOW!!!!!
Girl study .. don't stress ... your body .. the gym will be there in the AM for cardio ...
Happy early Birthday love![]()
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARIES!!! (sorry I am late)

To tell you the truth.....it would be better for you NOT to go scarf everything down that you see! Give yourself a reward after the show, even if it's something small. You don't have to eat a whole box of Ho Ho's (or whatever you like) or anything. But have ONE! You deserve it, girl!!!Aries13 said:Thanks love!!!!!That looks sooo good. I cant just see it stick to my legs INSTATNLY .. so I wont be having any cake any time soon.
Honestly, I think Im screwed up mentally since I did this diet. I thought I would be counting down to the end of this whole thing so I can eat everything and anything but I have no desire to eat what so ever. I am scared to death of gaining weight. Is there such a thing as fear of fatty food b/c I think I have it???. My bf thinks Im mental and he says he's worried about me. All he talks about is how much pizza he's gonna scarf down. I think I'll probably eat one slice and feel so damn guilty that I will wanna shoot my self. What the hell is wrong with me?

Aries13 said:Hey Bunny. SO you wanna see a pic??? Well, I looked something like this:

No talk to your trainer about slowly adding food back in and regualte your system. You will gain water weight back with the added food but it will come off. You can't think it's the end of the world when it comes back on... It will take your body some time to adjust. Then you just go from there. You need to have that break so you can keep going. You can't stay competition strict the rest of your life or else you could have some REALLY bad rebound effects. Just ease yourself off of your diet.Aries13 said:Thanks love!!!!!That looks sooo good.

Uhgggggg, 30 was the ABSOLUTE WORST for me! I was down in the dumps depressed all day. Just wanted to have a PITY party instead of a BIRTHDAY party!Aries13 said:Thank you all so much! So 21 .... doesnt feel any different. We'll see how I do when its the BIG 3 0 !!!!!! LOL. I woke up with some crazyyyyyy dreams ... competition and such ... Right now Im off to do my hydrostatic weighing and then I have a GIANT exam at 2!
As far as pigging out after all this is over... I will be smart about it. I'll probably have sime pizza and cheesecake that night.... I'll give my self 3 days to eat like a human and then I (along with all your help) have to figure out a " keep cutting-happy all summer" diet.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!!
*I love you all![]()

I'm sure you'll be fine post comp. You seem to have a pretty good idea of how NOT to blow up like the blimp!![]()
I don't know why it was so bad. Probably because I felt like my "fun" years were OVER - I was WRONG!!!!!Aries13 said:Now im scared... why was 30 so bad???? Oh man... i dont wanna get older!
Aries13 said:HOLY SHIT this test was the worstttttttt...im sure glas thats over and done! The hydrostatic weighing went ok BUT the scale says Im 3kg more than last time. WTF!!!??? Well, I did get my period this month (finally... today.. and 3 days late).. im hoping its just water weight! The calliper and cm measurements are incredible. I cant wait to put that stuff on here b/c seeing it on paper is just so amazing! Such a difference.. its turning me into an energizer bunny like someone else on here... I wanna keep going and going and going
10am: 1rice cake, 1 scoop whey
12pm: 1/2c oatmeal, 5oz. chicken breast

Aries13 said:*** BDAY IS OVER.... Im sure I will celebrate PROPER later***
--->The boyfriend was soooo cute...lol.. he made me a "cake" out of oatmeal and egg whites and splenda... like stacked pancakes w. some sugar free chocolate syrup and candles... he's so cute!!! I only ate like one bite... he had the rest... so I guess it was HIS pretend cake LOL but my carbs HAVE to stay pretty low right now.
(I tried on my suit today and I think its looking pretty darn good)

It can be your Birthday/Congrats cake, for all of your hard work and accomplishments!! What color did you decide to go with? (I am sure that you have already had a COMPLETE conversation about this...I definitely missed it though, sorry!(I tried on my suit today and I think its looking pretty darn good)
)JUST thought I'd add that I was looking around the files... AND my so-called x workout partner.. who started out soooo much ahead of me... well... her stats are IDENTICAL to mine now... and I got some gains even![]()

Sassy69 said:I feel like I"ve made comments on this before - if this is what whoever your trainer is put together I'm not going to mess w/ it. However couple questions:
- what's the boullion cube thing for?
- I think you really need to have a very flexible food plan on Sat morning because they always manage to fuck up the schedule to get the show going. Make sure you pack food to have with you because you can't guarantee how much time betweeen whenever meal 1 is and meal 2 and howerver much time you "think" you have before you hit the stage. Make a Plan B that includes whatever would be another meal if you don't get on stage by "meal 2" w/o friggen starving. Just be prepared for a really fucked up schedule and make sure you have a complete day's schedule for food and have all your food with you. What happens after "meal 2"? Do you know how long before the next meal? Do you know when you get time to eat next? Are you going to be stuck standing in line waiting to get on stage for 45 min? JUst saying plan for the worst & hope for the best.

iceprincess said:YEA! So close, I can't wait to see you SHINE and to see your PICS!! You are going to do awesome!!![]()

I sleep at night and all I can think about is that DAY ... the stage... my family watching me.. and the cheesecake I will scarf down as I get off the stage LOL!!!!

Aries13 said:Hello all of you wonderful ladies!!! Thanks so much for the support!!! Im hanging in there... just got back from am cardio... ate 5oz. steak (YUCK) ... and 2 boullium cubes-my mouth is so salthy! Today is NO CARBS at all but tomorrow I carb up!! IM SO EXCITED about that.... I also drop the water starting tomorrow so I should start filling out my muscles and drying out. Also, did I mention tomorrow is last cardio day??? YEY!! Its finally winding down. School is kind of put on hold for this week, but Im sure I'll pull through. Finals are in 2 weeks!!!!! yikes~ !!!![]()
--I keep dreaming about the contest and the day of the show. Like I do my routine and step off the stage. Everyone tells me I did ok except my legs were a little giggly(lol) and too big. Thats my only insecurity- my legs arent really that cut up . HOwever, I am competing against 3 women. One is 37 years old and is SO RIPPED, the other is lean and has done the show before, and the 3rd is my x-workout partner who's been training for about 6 years. SO, if I even come close---- its SOMETHING right? I cant wait to get this thing done and post pictures, my progress stats, hopefully the video!!! I cant wait!!! Again, thanks so much for the support. Sorry if Ive been neglecting the log, but thise carb/water depletion thing is so detailed and complex... its gotta be done precisely so it takes up so much time!
I have been logging in to check up on you all! Everyone have a GREAT day today and I'll keep you posted!
