Sassy69 2015: Good AZ New!

[Ibarramedia]

I was pretty happy about that - nice surprise, but my parents don't keep a lot of junk food around the house (altho we did experience the most epic "2 scoop" ice cream cone I've ever seen ... holy shit!) and I'm finding I just don't enjoy too much sugar anymore. It was nice to get a little carb in there considering I've been keto'ing for a couple months now w/ limited refeeds.

Clearing 160 ... HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!!!

Jill, When we get older sugar loses its appeal to us. I remember as a young kid that I could eat all the sweet icing in cakes. Now, just can't do it.

I can't handle a lot of any type of food anymore. I've gotten some scary level of heart palpitations from a mega shitload in the past. Otherwise, anything more than a typical size meal is just too much & I feel like crap.

I've been updated! I saw the show you're prepping for and seen that you're joining the WPD ranks. I'm so excited for you. Sooo, nvm my PM question on it

[baby muscle]

I can't believe how out of the loop I've been.

If there was a way I could have the social life of downtown Chicago while living in Scottsdale, I'd be all over it!

Welcome back, girl! And congrats about breaking through the 160 barrier! Not gaining weight while on vacation: priceless!

^^^^^This right here! Woot woot!

Hey "50" is the new "40" is the new "30!" Right?!? Why can't our bodies get with that state of mind!

The Ferrigno trophy is pretty dang sweet! I am so on board with getting the most you can out of a prep...Although I only did one show last year, I was ok with it. So next go around, maybe I can eek 2 shows out for the price of one prep. 14 weeks is going to fly by!

I all the broccoli!

Yea, I haven't eaten a lot of broccoli in a long time - usually go w/ green beans, and this year, it's mostly been spinach salad. Kinda lovin' it! (But keeping my Digestive Enzymes close at hand....:c. )

I can definitely say I don't 'feel' 50 and no one has ever accused me of looking my age, so I'm looking to maintain that! But yea, I'm definitely giving consideration to the "required maintenance" ;cP

I do like the idea of hitting a couple of shows back to back - both to get more out of one prep investment, but also to experiment w/ the "dialing in" to see how the second show compares to the first. I've only been able to do that once in 2009 when I did the USAs and then the North Americans - but that was something like a month between the shows and it definitely showed the burn out by the time I got to the NA stage. I've never been able to line up two shows closely that were geographically feasible, so this would be a cool one. Palm Springs is driving distance and I've never been there, so win / win!

We can always turn back the hands of time and be forever young. I'm not 50 yet and feel like i'm forever 24. lol. Not in denial or anything like that but you only live once.
