2 months down 7 to go

Honestly, October was a breeze for me. I went on two vacations and thrived during both. I’m starting to see some great progress and my waist is the smallest it’s ever been!

One thing I’ve really had to learn the hard way is knowing who’s in my corner. There will be people in your life who always say the right things, but also people who will always say the worst possible things. SHUT OUT THAT NOISE! I NEED to be surrounded by positive encouragement.

I had a “friend” this month that I caught making fun of me for competing. She would also do nothing but discourage me and tell me I’m competing for the wrong reasons. This friendship ending was devastating. Now I look back laughing 🤣. That was NOT my friend. And how WEIRD is she for thinking she knows my reason? Why does she care? Like I said…WEIRD. Haters will always be weird to me. Pray for them. And silence is loud. If you think your friend is talking about you, they probably are. So let them show their true colors…or send you the wrong text…

The MOST IMPORTANT part of this process is maintaining trust in my coach. Those are the only opinions I care about for the next 7 months.

My coach’s have given SO much praise to my hard work. We still really want to grow in my flexibility and posing. I see how far I’ve come in two months so I have no doubts I can progress even more! Posing is NO JOKE and there’s always room for improving. Finding a good flow is harder than you think! ….oh and not looking like a gorilla holding in a fart while I walk 😂

I’m really focusing on enjoying the process because I may never get to experience it again. I don’t feel like I’m being punished. Yes, some days are harder than others but I’m truly still grateful for this experience every day.
