September I PROMISE #NeverSettle #Iam1stPhorm



Well...what a month it was... haha I feel like I always say that but last month was something else. As you
guys know I have been training with Stacey Alexander and the 702ANGELS as well as working with Kim Oddo! It has been incredible and to say the intensity has been increased is an understatement. Making gains and hurting myself because I am so freaking excited. It's like when you want something so bad you end of over doing it! haha

The month started out with a bang! I was published thanks to the incredibly talented Stacie Frazier of Haute Shots Boudoir Photography! She continues to inspire me and this was awesome!!

 My training was getting intense. the intensity was increasing and the macros were decreasing...but I felt strong!
 I was truly inspired by all of your guys..my subscribers, my family, my friends...
Lots of meal prepping and meal prepping...THANK YOU COSTCO. for getting my through it! You guys can see my hauls on my Youtube Channel!
and well.. THIS HAPPENED yep.. I was getting super lean and super mean...and BAM CAR DOOR ON FINGER> I literally didn't feel it until I looked down and saw it was in the door. I was in shock to say the least. 

 I WAS pissed but my prep had to go on... I did however decide that I needed a Quest bar and hand full of almonds.. NOT On plan..but I was ok with it.... man did that hurt. With stitches still in tact I had a really exciting opportunity to not only meet Mel from PIBA but shoot with Stacie Frazier, Stacey Alexander and Mel at the A Team Training Center. Seriously. I DREAM COME TRUE. You can see the Behind the Scenes HERE.
AFTER our shoot and dance party haha we headed over the THE PROTEIN HOUSE here in Vegas. Larissa Reis is a personal favorite and Mels and we had a blast!  I was feeling a little better.
 THEN.. among the crazyness I was given an opportunity to audition to work at this years 2014th OLYMPIA....for those of you in the fit world you now that this is the LARGEST gathering of Bodybuilders women and men in the world. Held by Weider International I not only had to take a selfie of my Quest BAR infested almond over dosing self but it had to be that day. SO. I did. and I must say while I was critiquing my body to no end I was happy. I am sure the Beach Babe Swim made me happier but all in all I was happy with my improvements under the circumstances... and guess what. I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The next few weeks I had decided to take a new outlook on this whole finger situation after already doing this with my calf muscle...haha and look who showed up in my eggs... umm who the heck? 
Working with Louisa Voisine is always a pleasure even more so when it is benefiting such a worthy cause. Easter Seals had their annual tea brunch and I was able to model and volunteer my time to induct the honorees and get them a beautiful hat for the tea! LOVE my community here in Vegas and love giving back. 

 It was time to get my planner out and start prepping for Olympia. I mean I have to look good for this thing and let's face it...I like planners and stars haha did I also mention I am obsessed with putting my Phormula1 @1stphorm protein in my oatmeal? SOOO good... I AM SO excited about this more to come but if you are interested in ordering any1sphorm products head on over to my personal site where you can get FREE SHIPPING> I know...I know.. more to come... love you guys!!!
Back in the gym... focused on how I want to shape my body not on how I want it to look like someone elses! I am trying to really focusing on improving!
A Quick trip to San Diego helped get my hubby and I back in track and I got to see my beautiful friend get married! 

 Hey look. I am wearing shorts. My very first pair of Nike Pro Shorts. haha I never wanted to be one of THOSE girls..but I gotta say these are really nice shorts haha thanks ZAPPOS!
Meeting up with my girl for Thrifters Anonymous gave me exactly what I needed. 
  and then I made the decision! After training harder then I ever have and really focused on certain muscles and shaping I am going to compete again. The PROCESS for me is what I really enjoy...and it has enabled me to do so many things along this journey! SO if you are going to be here for OLYMPIA please come and say hello!!! Let's share in this journey together shall we. Here is my booty progress 2012 to now. I am white and not that lean but it is all muscle now..and that is exactly how I like it. You can watch my new series on Youtube where I will take you along my journey to the stage. I will share my meals prep, workouts, supplements and more! Love you guys and thank you for everything you do...YOU INSPIRE ME..and remember NEVER SETTLE.. KEEP GOING!

So...
