I am now 3 weeks from the competition and each week seems to deal out new crazy challenges. I am really trying to enjoy it and stay tough, but honestly it’s a challenge to just behave as a normal human being these days. My workouts have advanced to lifting 5x/week and cardio 3x/week- not so difficult for normal Jessica, but quite brutal for carb-deprived Jessica. Last week I experienced my first freak out- seriously, it was bad. I don’t know what happened, but I went from stage exhaustion to stage anger. I am trying to forewarn people now. So if I haven’t told you, here it is- I cannot be held responsible for my actions in the next 20 days. They will range from extreme stupidity to total range. And they will be like this damn NC weather- totally unpredictable.
Alright, so enough negativity, time for some happy thoughts. First off, I booked a photo shoot for April 18 (2 days after the competition before I get all fat and sassy). Also, I have been compiling a list of the foods I will be enjoying after the show. Here are just a few:
1. Peanut Butter (quite possibly the entire jar(s))
2. Peanut M&M’s
3. Pizza (lots of cheese and meat- especially, especially BACON)
4. Bacon- the real kind, none of that turkey bacon or soy shit
5. Mexican food from the whole-in-the-wall place in Cary where they don’t speak any English
5. Cheeseburger (with Bacon!!!!!!!!!!)
6. REAL pancake with REAL syrup and REAL butter
7. Chocolate donut holes
8. Cookies- I don’t discriminate, chocolate chip, raisin, oreos, peanut butter….I love them all
9. Cereal- again I accept any and all kinds
10. Macaroni and cheese with bacon- never had but it sounds really amazing right now
I’ll stop there before I go into a food porn binge. Anyways, so yea…..expect to see me gorging myself for a few days after this is over. Until then, I am going to appreciate my new-found abs in the smallest bikini ever (according to LA- my figure suit is currently being blinged up)
I know this post is a year old, but I found it because I am currently feeling your pain. I am 1 1/2 weeks away from my first NPC Bikini Competition. I’ve already MapQuested the nearest ice cream shop to my hotel!
Ahh you have to do such things to keep your sanity. Good luck, Xx!
