Evil Chocolate Bunnies
Easter Sunday started my 12 week countdown to the Adela Garcia Classic. For those of you rational people out there who have no idea what a female bodybuilding show prep is like, allow me to share.
Cardio increases big time. Diet gets VERY strict. Six meals a day, mostly egg whites and like 1/3 of a cup of brown rice. No salt. No artificial sweeteners. No protein pudding. No alcohol.
If you break any of these rules you will end up on your trainer’s s*** list. He/she will glare at you as if to say, “Go to Hell. Go directly to Hell. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.”
Knowing that a) my 12 week countdown was approaching and b) my five-year-old likes to nark me out to my trainer I handed both items effectively thus:
Saturday, 3/30/13
Lisa: “I would like to eat a chocolate bunny tomorrow before my 12 week diet down. R u ok with this? I want it in writing in case my kid asks for it.
Mel: “Bahaaa!! Absolutely 🙂 enjoy!
I was then instructed to take my progress pics immediately upon waking and email them to her (along with my weight) and enjoy the bunny thereafter.
Wow! I got a note from the teacher that says I can eat a chocolate bunny!!!!!
Why not celebrate this victory with half a bag of Tostitos and salsa while watching old episodes of Mad Men?
Sunday, 3/31/13
Morning starts and ends. Ushered with the husband for Easter service for Austin Stone. (15,000+ people attended! Texans love them some Jesus!) Did not take the progress pictures. Did eat two egg-potato-cheese tacos served to all church volunteers.
Afternoon starts and ends. I text Mel that I will be taking a nap and will send pics later. I’m sure sleep will magically burn several thousand calories, giving me abs of steel for my photo shoot.
6:37 p.m.
One should not allow photos of oneself to be taken in a posing bikini after eating crap all day.
I sent the pictures.
Lisa: Ok, so about my weight…
Confessed the gory details. Acknowledged my off season pics were better than those pathetic pics from this morning afternoon evening. Hu-mil-i-ty: 12 Week Progress Pics.
Mel: Oh well – gets ya motivated!
Evil chocolate bunnies.
Do you ever go a little crazy with the food right before you know you’re about to start a diet?
