If your physical appearance is the way your income is made it should be treated like a temple?Sorry for the rant but I am pretty sick of the "athletic,fit,cheerleader " crap and fake pics. Do the ladies feel they don't need to workout? To all ladies that are serious about working out I can train you as I have with many pro fitness woman.

Hello Everyone....
A few months ago... I posted a thread in the San Antonio Co-Ed section where I talked about some of the good... the bad... and the UGLY of GETTING my FLABBY TUSHY BACK INTO SHAPE!! Lol... So, I thought I would share it with ya'll... in the hopes that someone might find hope, inspiration and yes, a FEW LAUGHS from my own personal challenges...
I honestly did not realize... until I became a provider... and NAUGHTY PHOTOS became an absolute job necessity... how DIFFICULT it was to be a professional model...
I have to admit... that prior to getting sick two years ago... I never really had to worry about what I ate... I was a dancer, cyclist and runner... and I had been for years....So, I could easily put away 2-4 K calories a day... and never have to worry about gaining an ounce... Sigh... I MISS THOSE DAYS!! Lol
However, since I lost a rather large percentage of my muscle mass... while I was incapacitated... due to illness... I have been working hard this last year... to desperately try and get my body back... and while I am in NO WAY where I want to be... I am getting closer and closer... to having the body... that I did before...
So... I thought I might share a few of the things... that I have learned these last FOUR MONTHS of dieting and working out...
1) DO GET A WORK OUT BUDDY!!
**To me this is the most critical part of a work out plan... Ember Simmers and I became good friends... a few months ago... and since, we both love to work out AND EAT... Lol... We decided to combine our efforts... in order to help each other... reach our desired goals...
**Now even though Ember and I do not live in the same city... we text each other after each work out... we take photos of ourselves and send them to the other... so, that we can encourage each other... to keep working out... and to stick to our diet... SHE IS AWESOME AT KNOWING WHEN TO KICK ME IN THE ASS!!! Lol
2) TAKE PICTURES OF THE FOODS THAT YOU ARE CRAVING!!
**Now, this may seem odd.... but I once had a therapist tell me... to write in a journal... every night before going to sleep... What this does... is take those thoughts... that are rattling around in your head... and it gives them a place to go... and for whatever reason... it will help you sleep better...
Now, I honestly thought the doctor had lost his DAMN MIND!! Lol... but Lo and behold... it actually WORKED!! So, I extrapolated that out to FOOD... What if I did the same thing whenever I had a CRAVING? Ember and I found that this actually DID WORK... By giving a written voice... to the food we were craving... it became easier to stick to our diet!!
Fyi... there was A LOT of PHOTOS of SKITTLES and CHOCOLATE being sent back and forth... Lol
3) TELL YOUR CHILDREN YOU ARE DIETING!!
** My munchkins took GREAT PLEASURE in telling me when I had had enough to EAT!! Lol... They also enjoyed telling me... if you eat that... You have to go run and get 5K more steps!! LOL
4) DO BUY A PEDOMETER!!
**Personally, I have been addicted to these little gadgets for years... and my current favorite is the "UP BAND"... it is easy to use... and syncs with my iphone... and it also tracks my sleep... However, 1.21 Gigawatts swears by his NIKE FUEL BAND!! Lol... My only complaint with that one is that it does not track sleep patterns... and since, I am not as technically savvy as him... I prefer to have both programs in one device...
**I also like to leave this on.... during my PLAY DATES... I find it rather INTERESTING to see... just how many steps... I was able to achieve... with my PARTNER IN CRIME!!
5) DO HAVE DESIGNATED CHEAT DAYS!!
**After about 3 weeks... and my stomach had shrunk... I allowed myself to have one day a week... where I could eat... anything that I wanted... On those days...I do not worry about carbs, fat etc... I just enjoy the day...
6) FORGIVE YOURSELF WHEN YOU FALL OFF THE WAGON!!
** All of us have stressful days and times of the month... that make dieting VERY HARD!! I hurt my foot and knee pretty bad last Thursday... and on Friday... I have to admit... that I did A LOT of COMFORT EATING!! Forgive yourself... tell your work out buddy... and then get back on your plan!! Do not let that one setback... keep you down... we are all human...
7) HAVE FUN WITH YOUR WORKOUTS!!
** Learn to laugh at yourself... try not to get stuck doing the same old routine... Whenever, I want to shake things up... I go down to my garage... and I put on the soundtrack to ROCKY and I jump rope... punch and kick on my bag... and I try not to COLLAPSE after a mere 5 MINUTES!! Lol
**You will amuse the HELL OUT OF YOUR NEIGHBORS if you lay on your garage floor screaming MEDIC!! Lol... However, if you are working out with a trainer... don't be surprised if they THREATEN TO SPANK YOU for such IRREVERENT BEHAVIOR!! Lol...
8) TOURING TIP FOR WORKING OUT:
**I have found that when I tour... it is MUCH HARDER to stay on my work out schedule... So, I have learned to get VERY CREATIVE! One of the things that I like to do... in between appointments... is to RUN UP & DOWN the STAIRS in my hotel of choice... This will give you a QUICK burst of energy and will do WONDERS for both your LEGS AND YOUR TUSHIE!! Who doesn't love a SHAPELY ASS?
**If you have 10 to 20 minutes between appointments.. then take that time to get in 25 to 50 push ups or sit ups... or better yet POP UPS!! Well, that is what SURFERS call it when they have you go from a prone position on your stomach to a crouched position on your feet... THESE HURT!! Lol... prepare to WHINE!!
**When I am staying in a hotel... it is much HARDER to stay on a regimented food plan... One of the things that I like to do... is I take the GEL PACKS that I would use on training rides... and I will eat one of these in between my appointments... and I find that they are the PERFECT AMOUNT of calories and energy that I need to make it through a 60 min to 2 hour appointments. For longer appointments a higher caloric protein bar may be the answer for your energy needs and as a way to control your caloric intake...
I hope that everyone enjoyed a few of my work out tips!! I am in no way an expert... but I do hope... that my honest struggle... with both my weight and body development... might help inspire and help others... who are struggling to do the same...
During the 4 months.. that I was preparing for that photo shoot... I managed to slim down from 115 to 103 lbs for the Little Red Riding Hood photo shoot with Megan Love. I have been able to maintain this weight for quite a few months now...
Currently, I am working on toning and sculpting my physique... THIS IS A PROCESS... So, even now... I know that this will be 2 to 4 months before I am back down to my desired 10 % body fat... But if you are willing to work hard... there is really VERY LITTLE that you cannot accomplish...
For what it is worth...
Your dedicated slave,
Guinevere
