Three Days to Contest! Still here!
Hi Everyone!
Finally got some photos for your inspection. Remember some important details about these shots:
1. I am not "dried out" yet but will be by Saturday.
2. I have no color yet. I will start the painting process Thursday night. Color makes a BIG difference!
3. I am not wearing my contest suit - that is going to be a surprise.
Okay now that we have those things out of the way I can talk to you about how I am doing. I ate carbs for the first time at 1:00pm today. They were the first carbs I have eaten since 2:00 pm Monday. I feel 1000x better. This morning I did my cardio and I honestly felt as if my legs were made of concrete. No matter what I did I could not drum up enough energy to really sprint out.
Okay, no more complaining. We are on the way. Something really exciting is happening. People are sending me notes of encouragement. Thank you everyone! Please send as many notes of encouragement as you want! I accept love at any time.
Enough talk, here come the pictures......
This is my side shot. Color is still to come.
Front shot with a camera man behind me. He looks great!
And finally, my abs. I may actually have some decent definition by contest date. Yippeee!!
Got to go now. I have a date with a sweet potato!
Love and kisses,
Tosca
all done!

You definitely have a lot of wisdom! I love reading your blog. Can I be you when I grow up? :)
Just out of curiosity ... how far down is your body fat %? I would LOVE to do a competition but have much to learn!
Thank you for the constant inspiration!!

Hi Tosca,

Thanks for sharing all your preparation and stories on your blog..all very interesting and lets us feel like we know you. Great job, I'm proud of you. Not only are you smart and articulate, great family woman, but fit, healthy and attractive. What a great role model you are.

I love the way you look now & I loved the way you looked before. You inspire me!
Can you please tell me why I can't click on your photos in your blog and enlarge them like before? You must have changed the settings.
Take care & good luck at the contest.

'Anonymous', if you think the physique contest world is "healthy and balanced", you are deluded, my friend...
Clean Eating is healthy and balanced. Contest prep starvation and dehydration tactics are definitely not.
