update

I haven't had a ton of time to myself lately....things have been ultra hectic since I got home from Edmonton. I have been working 7 days/week while training/dieting and trying to get some rest. I DO like being busy, but this is a bit much. My 'inbox' is swamped with email which I have yet to read and unfortunately, I won't be able to get to it until the weekend.

So far, my pre-contest prep couldn't be going better...I'm amazed by my own body! The 'freakish' changes taking place are incredibly motivating...watching my own body progress is keeping me very focussed. It is certainly making it easy to eat 'diet food' every day. To date, I'm still not doing any cardio, can you believe that? I certainly don't want to jinx myself, but I do know that I may be adding in a little bit of cardio during my last month of prep...we'll wait and see:)

I have great news....I have been contacted by the Masino's...I'll be flying to Las Vegas immediately after the Canadians to shoot for ME...I'M SO EXCITED! Two fun filled weeks in Vegas!

This past weekend was a blast, I was able to sneak away from work for a few hours to go and watch a local 'strong man' competition that featured a few pros....the proceeds from the event went to a local charity. The brute strength displayed by some of the individuals competing was simply amazing. My friend Bonnie amongst others joined in to watch the event.

Check back next weekend because I'll be posting a few progress pics....

Until then, I'll leave you with a few pics from the weekend...
