My pro debut....only days away!
Just when I thought I couldn't handle another 4 weeks of dieting...time has passed incredibly quickly...here I sit counting down the final days (only 5) until I make my pro debut in Atlantic City! Hell, I'm leaving for Atlantic City on Wednesday! At this point, I'm just SO excited to get there and get the process underway.
I'm currently living amongst chaos as I prep to leave....trying to get my food cooked, portioned and frozen...trying to prioritize what I should and shouldn't pack...and most importantly, trying not to forget anything. Ah, my poor dieting brain!
I'll be meeting up with Helen & Nicole on my journey (in Philadelphia) and we'll be finishing the last leg of our trip together. It sure will be nice to have a few days in AC to unwind before the show. After the show, I'm headed up to NYC for a few days then I'll return home. However, my stay at home will be short lived as I'll be flying out to Las Vegas for the Olympia less than a week later....AND...I'll be in Las Vegas 6 fun-filled days....YAHOO! By the time I finally settle back in at home again we'll be in to October and I'll be counting down the few short days leading up to Thanksgiving which will require that I take another trip, but to visit family this time. Of all the insanity, the one sure thing is that I'm really going to miss sleeping in my own bed!
My therapeutic baking has continued....I made a list of everything I have made from the start of my pre-contest prep up until now and that list entails more than 75 different recipes...can you imagine? It's no wonder my deep-freeze is filled to maximum capacity. Today I'm actually planning to empty the freezer and transport all of the baked goodies to my parents deep-freeze instead...I don't really have a choice in the matter..lol... I need to freeze my food that I'll consume later this week and at this point, I simply do not have any room. I have assembled a majority of the treats on party trays for easy transport....and speaking of parties...my folks are throwing a celebratory bash for me upon my arrival home...yup, I finally get to celebrate turning pro! Needless to say, all of my baking will be put to the test as it will be consumed by numerous family members and friends when we celebrate...it should be an absolute blast!
Well, gotta run...lots to do and so very little time left!
Cross your fingers for me and send good vibes my way on Saturday!
A candid clip taken by a fellow competitor backstage after I won the overall..enjoy!
