I have about 4 and a half weeks tell womens nationals and I am SO excited to go and lift this year! I don't know exactly why, but I am! I think a big reason is because my cycle has been going really good for the first time in a while! I have been able to actually work on my deadlifts every week and they have gone up tremendously! It makes me very very happy!! =) Then squats are going super amazing as well! Last week I did 455 for sets of 5!! I think that is the most weight I have ever done for fives before. Then we are still working on the whole bench thing. Hopefully we get it figured out. I really would like my shirt to fit me again. But that comes with me working my butt off tell we leave to lose this dang weight. Never again will I let myself get this high in weight again. I have felt like crap the last few months, and now that I am losing it I feel so much better!! I don't think it will bother me to be 181 pounds again like it used it. Now that I know what it is like to be up by the 200's I know that it is ok for me to be at 181. To lose my weight I have been doing a very low carb diet. It went really good for the first couple weeks I lost 7 pounds!! Whoo hoo!! But I am not going to lie I have not done really well at all this week and I can tell. =/ I just need to get back with it and really stick hard to it for the next few weeks and hopefully it will pay off. I also found this three day diet thing that I might attempt to try. But we will see. But yeah I am pretty dang stoked for nationals!! Oh its in Atlanta, Georgia this year!! My goals for this meet is to squat 550, bench 220, and dead lift around 440, and I believe that gives me a total of 1210! That is like a hundred pound jump from my last total!! So hopefully all goes well and I can hit everything. I would really like to hit a 9 for 9 meet at this competition. It would make me very happy. =)
I also turned 20 three weeks ago I believe it was. =) This means I have around 7 months tell I can start my papers for my mission! It is CRAZY!! I seriously can't believe how fast it came. It felt like it would be forever tell I would be able to even start them and I am down to seven months! I am so happy that I made the choice to go on a mission. I really feel good about it. And with my new calling in church teaching relief society I feel like it is preparing me a ton!! I am learning each month how to teach by the spirit and that it is ok to go off of the lesson and just say what you feel like you need to say. I also have been gaining a testimony of this church, even more than before. =) I have gained a testimony on how much heavenly father loves each of us and I have been able to feel that love for the women I am teaching. =) It just makes me happy. This last Sunday we had the 2nd counsler from the general relief society come and speak to us for a fire side. She spoke on temples and it was AMAZING!! Something that really stood out to me was that the temple isn't secret its sacred. She talked to us about how it is ok to talk about the temple with people who want to know. And I really found that cool. =) I really need to go to the temple again. I am going to try really hard and go next week! I wanted to go today but I totally forgot urg... I can not wait tell we get the temple in Meridian! It will be so nice! And It will be a great opportunity to take Amy so she can see what it is like inside and learn about it. I am very excited for the opportunity to take her there for the open house.
Well life is really good rite now. I am loving it. All its fun and laughter that come along with it. =)
