5 weeks to go!!... time is flying

I HAVE THE BEST NEWS EVER!!


Soo.. you know all this talk I've been doing about how stressed I am, and how I leave everything to the last minute? welll..
I took my loong 'TO DO" list by the neck... pinned it against the wall, and threw darts at each chore... until I became about 60% less stressed than a week and a half ago!
I'd recommend this therapy to anyone haha


With that being said...




a)My suit is in the process of being made :D:D soo excited for the outcome

b) My routine song, is almost done to perfection... just fixing a few things up with the amazing Scott, from Sounddome.ca - makes amazing songs for fitness and bodybuilding.

c) The routine itself, to be honest i still havent exactly started... but the other day during 'practice' (which is usually me laying on the ground listening to my song over and over - or pacing back and forth bobbing my head to each beat) I finally, and I mean FINALLY came up with some cool ideas! BUT havent peiced them together yet, so im hoping I can perform it, as well as I can imagine it!
this is how all my routines and choreography are done... hours on the ground/coach/in bed-and can never fall asleep... peicing things together visually! If i can't see it... i obviously can't perform it! Thats my secret

d) I bought my high heels... and Im in the process of booking posing sessions with the great Mindi O'brien! the best of the best :D

e) lastly... need to Thank my Sponsor - FUSION, for their support and sending the goodies (I think Im addicted to FUBAR, and Agent M lol.. gotta love the blue tongue :P ).. every little bit helps, im very thankful!


So ya, Im on a roll, feeling great!
I;ve actually been asked by a few people why I'm so happy all the time, and always smiling?! And I dont know... its just been gooooodd the last little while. (ill probably be an emotion wreck next week though... be prepared haha - just a guess, knowing me) keep your fingers crossed with me, that i stay happy and focused! WOOOOOOOOOOO

So unfortunately I havent been able to take photos of myself since 7 weeks out... need a new memory card... so hopefully at 4 weeks I'll have a fantastic photo... that hopefully looks amazing, compared to 7 weeks!

Oh, and my diet changes slightly as of tomorrow, for phase 3... wish me luck, and hope it does wonders! Im excited :)

NEVER LET YOUR COMPETITION OUT TRAIN YOU!! (unless I'm your competition...I can't be out-trained haha :P)

7.5 weeks out !!

AAAAHHH
The big day seems to be coming sooo fast!! I'll be honest.. I'm not feeling 100% confident at the moment... mainly in terms of being organized and having everything ready!

ex- My routine has not been started... nor do i have a song done to start it :( **Bad Jodi**
- I do not have my bikini yet... not even fully ordered and started!
- routine outfit... its an easy home made one this year, but still should start on that asap!
- Posing... having started practicing! the most ive done is for updated photos! *eeek*
- shoes... ive been needed new heels as last years are orange! should go buy those today..

So ya.. a big to do list, and I am definitely a procrastinator! This is a HUGE show for me, so i know i should get my A$$ in gear right??

well.. I can say i did start tanning... and I did book my hotel room and registered already! is that enough?? haha oh god I know this is going to be a rough couple weeks! And thank god I have Rachel by my side... shes the one keeping me on my toes lately (yelling at me to start my routine, sat beside me while i book the hotel haha... make sure im actually doing it)

Living with my Trainer/Boyfriend Eric Daye - from 'TRUbody fitness' is a plus aswell! I mean... i live with a dieting/training Nazi lol ( in a good way) I couldn't cheat if i wanted to..
ex- the other day his eyes were on me for 30 minutes during my cardio... as he watched my every step during lunges, made me run backwards, sideways, and everyway the human body feels unnatural haha.. plus the burpees in between! Like "what the hell?" lol... cant a women do a normal incline walk before bed?? but i love him for it, and it will pay off




sooo..ive posted a photo of me at 9 weeks out (june 26/10)!! I have tightened up a little bit since that photo! i was 116lbs then... and about 114.6lbs now! I know weight doesnt really matter too much for me, but its good to keep track! Im down about 11 lbs from the start :)
unfortunately I missed 8 weeks out, so ill for sure get a pic at 7 weeks this Sunday









Ok so Ill leave you with a small funny "diet brain mush" story!
Before bed I was making my usual egg whites, with cinnamon and sweetener...which taste pretty yummy! its like a snack... so after I plated my eggs, I saw a lonely piece still in the pan, staring at me looking so delicious! So of course i couldn't leave it there, i wanted to eat it! BUT, for whatever reason I choose the hardest/stupidest way to scoop the little guy up! As i eyed it down, i was talking to myself "ok just grab it with your tongue, quickly! and make sure not to touch the pan....ok, you can do it Jodi... ready.. set.." BURN!!! WTF was I thinking?? All i had to do was use the flippin spatula that was in my hand already, and put it on my plate!! but nooo.... i wanted to be an iguana apparently! needless to say i did NOT enjoy my eggs that night as i couldnt really taste anything but a burn tongue LOL.

over and out!! see you next week
