Cassie's Figure Competition Journal

I just threw up a little bit.

I just threw up a little bit.

Ew... I was gonna say add some pineapples & anchovies.. but nevermind as you might throw up a whole bucket

You people are sick.

You've been one of us for a long time now, if we're sick you're definitely infected as well

So today I am officially 3 days away from my competition. Mentally I'm feeling a little better... I think its the fact that the end is soooo near!

For the past two days (and today) I'm doing a very low carb diet to deplete glycogen stores. Tomorrow I get to add carbs back in, while cutting back on water. They say you know when you're getting depleted because your brain starts to get a little "foggy". I think I'm there. Last night I got off work, went into the kitchen, put some chicken on to cook (for my meals today and tomorrow) then made myself a salad and hit the couch. After eating my salad I brushed my teeth and went to bed completely forgetting about my chicken. Luckily my fiance saw my cooking chicken and was nice enough to turn off the stove and put my chicken in the fridge for me. Had he not been home i could have very easily burned the house down. I kind of laughed off the whole chicken thing... but then this morning I was taking my shower and I honestly could not remember whether I was supposed to apply shampoo or conditioner first. I stood there for a full minute trying to remember if shampoo comes before conditioner or vise versa. I'm losing my mind. Luckily tomorrow i get to eat carbs again... quite a few of them actually. I'm very much looking forward to that.

My workout this morning was pretty terrible. I was exhausted and had absolutely no energy. None. Zip. Zilch. Only two more workouts to go then i can take a (much needed) days off.

Welp I guess thats all i know today. I hope everybody is having a great week!

Cassie

Good luck Cassie and post lots of pictures of the competition!

One more time...

Good luck this weekend. You are almost through with hell week!!!

When will you start heading there? Is it a long drive like the other one?

Thanks for your support guys. I leave tomorrow morning... its about a 5 hour drive I believe. I'll be staying with LaReina (from this site) so am heading to her house tomorrow then Saturday morning at 8 I have to go check in, then go to a meeting, then the show starts at 10am. I can't wait! Today I'm back on carbs again and already feel better! The worst is behind me... almost.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay Cassie! You've done an awesome job, lady and I'm so very, very proud of you. We'll all be there cheering you on as your strut your stuff on stage! Can't wait to see you!!

I am sure you'll be in very good hands. I know you and LaR go way back and she's proven to be a really great person to have around here, so you couldn't have asked for a better person to be there for you, during those final few hours, before the comp.

Just remember that whatever happens, you ARE a really good athlete, and we will be proud of you no matter what. Your athletic potential to me is immense, but you'll always be Cassie the regular person, ahead of Cassie the athlete, and however your athletic career turns out, it's the person you are, that makes us most proud and gives us the most happiness as individuals .

It' has however, always been a huge privilege to support you through everything.
