Took a week off training due to fatigue and then I'm now taking another week off because I caught the flu 😔. This meet prep isn't going very well and I'm a little over a month out.... So here's me trying to ignore my problems by with makeup and selfies. 😐

Back to recording and iron therapy. Top set of 235x3. Video is 220x3. I don't disclose much of what happens in my personal life, but this past year starting from my birthday last year has been nothing but bad news, financial desperation, job issues, health scares, depression, stress, and anxiety. I turned 24 last weekend. Here's to a better year.

Almost forgot! I got tagged by @ardita.rose for the #stopdropandselfie. Just got back from the gym and feeling starved! I have almost 1000 cals left, so I'm ready to pig out! 😛 Strange how adding an additional 200 cals to my daily intake can make me feel so full and energized.

In case it wasn't obvious enough with my singlet, yellow is my favorite and I love bright colors. 💛 I feel like I haven't done anything but work and stress over money and housemates this summer, so I'm sad to see summer end so soon. Back to the work grind I go! I decided to take up a second job again and I'm training for my powerlifting meet in Nov. Busy bee! 🐝

Finished with 9/9 attempts! Played it super safe and made out with easy peasy 3rd attempts at 198 squat, 110 bench, and a 248 deadlift at 111.7 lbs bodyweight. It was great meet to end my junior USAPL record! :) It was hot and humid as hell and I felt like I was dying of heat stroke for most of it, but it all worked out. Brought home 2 golds--One for 52kg Junior and one for Open! 🎉🏆

This is why I can't ever be a bodybuilder no matter how much I want to compete. I don't have the discipline nor the patience to weigh every single thing especially when I have a very small margin of error due to being so short. 😔 Only one more week of this! #Oneweekout #usaplpowerlifter #52kg #NovaOpen

3 weeks out! This week's episode: "Jiezl finds weird crevices on her body while cutting weight. She thinks her back looks like it has fish gills."

Congrats to these goobers for another successful powerlifting meet! 🎉🎊 🏆 Wish I could've competed with all of you and cheered you guys on in person ❤️ VCU REPRESENTS! #blackandgold

Last day in VB--Happy to have some sun today after the past couple days of thunderstorms. 🏊☀️

Down to 115.4--A little over a pound to go until I qualify for the 52kg weight class! I was stuck at 117 for a few weeks, so I'm glad things are moving again. It feels weird to be at this weight. I'm liking the slimmer midsection, but not so much the loss of size from my (already nonexistent) boobs and butt.😩 Current stats: 5'2", 1730 cals, 115.4 lbs, down 6.6 lbs from 122 in early May. My lifts are going up even though I'm kind of winging my powerlifting programming and nutrition for my meet--I'm glad it's working~! ☺️

I was feeling myself today. 💁 Dressed up, but didn't go anywhere.😅 I don't wear much makeup anymore, but when I do, I take 11 billion filtered photos. 😁💄

Finally got my hands on a Halo Top! I'm eagerly waiting for the lemon cake flavor to come to my local grocery store. 😍🍦🍋

Appropriate shirt for deadlifts tonight! 💪

I got my passport last week and the plane tickets are booked. My bf and I will be in London from July 12-18! He has a job offer and will be talking to the company, and then we'll be scoping out the area for living arrangements. If we have time we'll be at the Star Wars celebration~ Who knows, maybe we'll be making the switch before the end of the year. #life #passport

Now I know why the lighter weight classes differ only by a few pounds (94, 103, 114, 125...). Even losing 1 lb. is tough when you're already small. 😩 My weight is STILL holding at 118 lbs even with the added bits of cardio and a lower daily intake. I'm about 8 weeks out and getting nervous... AHHHHHH 😭 At least the sun is helping me sweat some of the water weight off. Going to rely on another sodium cut to make weight. 😓

A rough week calls for bold brows and summer tan lines. #self

Officially signed up for my next meet! It's going to be my last time competing as both a Junior & Open competitor before I turn 24 and get fed to the sharks. 😭 Aiming for 52kg again!
