Progress Pic – Off Season
Busted, busted, I can’t be trusted! It’s not that I don’t follow my meal plan – I actually do eat all 6 meals – it’s just that I also like to supplement those meals with potato chips and cupcakes. Doh! So now my trainer, Mel, wants me to start taking weekly progress pics again to hold myself accountable and stay motivated during the off season.
So here is my first Off Season pic: It’s tough staying focused on clean eating when my next competition (Texas Shredder) is six months away, but I think progress pics will help. I won’t post them every week, but I will threaten myself with it if I’m falling off track into an ice cream truck again.
How about you? How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated for holistic health — body, mind, and spirit — by thinking of it as a gift; not only to myself, but to my husband and son as well. If I take preventive care now, the chance is greatly diminished that I will need elder care when I’m a little old lady (who can still kick butt and take names)…
My guess is that you will be kicking butt when you’re 102!
I fell off the wagon and ate a Donut. It was amazing. But I have a meal prep session that is coming up and a schedule so I wont fall off the wagon again.
I used to be really into Dunkin’ Donuts when I lived in NJ, but fortunately there aren’t any near me here in Austin, TX. Kudos for getting back on the wagon.
I watch some videos on Youtube, and of course, there are Rock songs!
Good tips – I think I need to recharge my iPod.
Wait I’m confused; this is you looking “bad”? You still look great!
Aw, thanks 🙂 The main thing is that I was falling back into bad habits and I don’t want to go back to that yo-yo nonsense. I’ve been eating clean for almost two years now and want to make sure I stay consistent.
Yeah it is SO easy to fall back into bad habits which makes it so much worse to start over so I can’t say I blame you for wanting to avoid that roller coaster!
I’ve been really trying to focus this week on avoiding junk food snacks. You’re right – I don’t want to start over!!!
I look at your progress pics.
Aw, thanks 🙂
You look adorable (though I am not so sure about the shoes).
LOL! You don’t like the shoes?
You are about 30 years too young for those shoes!
LMAO! Oh no! I’m wearing granny shoes??
I like the way you choose to stay motivated. I too took some progress photos last week and it does help a lot.
You’re look great.
Progress pics are such a reality check, aren’t they? They work though – LOL!
You look great! It’s good to know that someone that looks so great still falls off the wagon from time to time
Aw thanks! Yep, unfortunately I fall off the wagon. That’s why I’m happy that my trainer and blog hold me accountable.
Wow , what a building. The information mentioned in the article are some of the best available
Thanks 🙂
