Almost There!

Well, it has been a while since I posted. Things were left a little crazy but wow God is Good and has worked it all out. Last week was proof of that. My husband met with the school on Monday and it went very well. They decided to grant us some financial assistance this next school year recognizing the short comings of their new third party. I am so appreciative of those individuals who I called and asked to be praying at that exact time. My husband thought it was strange because he didn't have to say much, it was as if someone had already plead our case. I believe that someone was our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The financial guy and my husband were within $45 dollars of each other and he said that was fair, granted us the help, and that was that. What a blessing.

The week continued to get better as my suit was completed (I love it) and my hair extensions were as well. I don't know what the heck to do with them, but I love them. I will share all my great sponsors on my next blog.

 Unfortunately, my body fat is still practically the same. I was pretty upset. I have never followed a diet so perfectly as I did last week. What went wrong? Is my body starving? Well, I figured it out. I made a mistake with the diet and was taking in less than 1300 calories and less than 8 grams of fat. No wonder I couldn't think. I am hoping that getting those calories back up to 1570 will fix the problem. I have never plateaued this long. I am asking God to put me where I need to be, because quite frankly, there is no sense in worrying about it now. I still look good enough to be on stage, so at least I won't completely embarrass myself. It's frustrating, but I just have to keep going.

I was practicing my posing and walk today and noticed my shoe was not fitting right. You have got to be kidding, I thought, when I saw that the elastic on my shoe is barely intact. I will be making a trip to a shoe repair shop in the morning. Worse case scenario, I will purchase new and have them shipped overnight. Just a little bump in the road. At least it didn't break at the show. That could have ended badly.

I have chosen not to post my pictures in my competition suit just yet. So I am still in my regular suit.
