Finding balance has been tough, but Im getting there!! Before my competition I thought what a perfect way to get in the best shape of my life!...but now I realize that wasnt the case at all. I feel that NOW I am getting in the best shape of my life! I may be nowhere near as lean as I was during prep...but I am stronger, faster and MUCH happier than I was back then. I remember lying on the gym floor crying because I was losing my strength and energy and even though I could see every muscle, major vascularity, and my clothes were hanging off of me...I still felt fat. I personally dont think that would classify me as being in the best shape of my life...just the leanest I have been in my life. Now days I am loving my curves, finding balance and peace with food and I am knocking out PRs like you wouldnt believe! The video attached is (besides being one of those obnoxious gym selfie video thingies) me totally surprising myself!! I have never maxed out on a deadlift so I decided to play around...worked my way up to 225lbs!! So what I am trying to say is...who gives a rip what you weigh, what size your jeans are, what society thinks you should look like...do what makes you happy!! Work on being the BEST YOU that you can be!! Pants size do not define you, numbers on the scale do not define you, your HAPPINESS defines you!! Strength makes me happy, PRs make me happy, loving myself for who I am and what I can accomplish make me happy!! What makes you happy?!?
