These are just a few of the things that I want to eat right now...WOW.
I was hoping that this would allow me to vent and get over my cravings...Maybe it worked, but who knows.
My cravings are coming and going...Not nearly as bad as they normally are. I remind myself that I really don't want all this food. Realistically the food will taste good at first, but then I will just feel like crap!! My body does NOT want any of this food...It's actually quite happy with whole and clean food. My mind and my emotions...now that's another story. My Mind THINKS that I need a burger ;) Hopefully I didn't make any of you competitors too hungry.  We're almost there, so no worries! Just think...16 days and all you Ironman competitors can enjoy whatever it is that you have been craving for the last several weeks!

So yesterday was a great workout. I had an awesome AM cardio session. I did the Elliptical for 60 min and was even wanting to do more. My energy levels were kickin'. Then I met Katy and Pete at Snap later on to lift and do a little more cardio. We did back...It was a great workout and Pete kept us moving! We did a variety of exercises in order to hit all areas of the back. Then I finished up with 30min of cardio. After that I went tanning (Boy am I white!!!) and then went home for awhile. I hung out with my dogs and just relaxed. I didn't have to prep any food because yesterday morning I left the house for work WITHOUT any of my food for the day. Major Bummer. So yesterday I had to improvise...which worked OKAY. But anyways, that just mean't that I didn't have to make any food last night. That was nice. After hanging out at home for awhile, I headed to LA for my last cardio session. I did another hour of cardio and loved every minute of it...honestly. For some reason I was REALLY feeling cardio yesterday!!

Today...Well, that's a different story. I could barely put in 30 min on the Elliptical today. I felt like I physically could not finish 30 min. Hopefully I'll gain some energy and strength through-out my day to get me through lifting and more cardio later on. I know I can do it. It'll be tough today, but I've got it handled :)

Once I get off work today, I'll head to LA for some more cardio. Then later this evening I'll meet the girls at Pete at Snap for shoulders!! Gotta work on that round cap! Each workout helps.

So that's all for now. I'm getting super excited for the show and cannot wait for it to get here. Almost Show Time!!!

Stay Strong. Stay Focused. Let the Lord's Light SHINE!
