Finally!! Losing the pounds! YAY!

Hey again :) So for those who haven't read my first blog let me just give you a quick refresher; I'm less than 6 weeks out from my next figure show and have been training on a minimum of two hours a day and the scale "struggles" with a 1-3 lb loss. :( Training for a figure show you have to measure "everything" so that you have a very precise measurement of the calories that you are consuming, that being said; I took it upon myself to just "eye" my food. "I've been down this road twice before, I know what I'm doing." Not so much. I had been consuming atleast TWICE, that's right TWICE the amount of calories that I should have been, big mistake! So now on day 4 I have lost 4 lbs. just measuring my food to where the calories should be. WOW!! What a difference counting calories makes :0)

Ahhhh! Girls measure your food!

So I'm less then 6 weeks out for my next figure show and the pounds are hanging out for the long haul!! Grrrrr! :( I'm working out at least 2 times a day if not my 3 a days and notta! Very frustrating, so this morning I decided that I'd go back to measuring my food (bought the scale for my last show) I've been "eyeing" my food since then thinking I knew what I was doing.............WRONG!! So I've been consuming atleast 1000 more calories A DAY!! No wonder the scale doesn't budge. So now that I'm aware of this problem, made adjustments to fix it .....the pounds are just going to melt off. Right! ;-S We'll see.....I 'll get back to ya in a week. Lesson today- "measure that food, no matter if it's good food (protein) or not, bottom line is "calories in verses calories out". Smooches all! :)
