Big Changes

Hey everyone! I hope your all having an awesome summer. It seems like it's just been flying by. So I ended up not competing at the end of June. My daughter shows horses and it just seemed like we had her events every weekend that I couldn't break away. My husband is always willing to take her to her shows but my knowledge of horses and shows is greater than his and it's just easier and less stressful for me to go.  I was accepted to join a bikini competition team starting in August and I'm so excited. I applied in January after I first started my weight loss journey and was told that I had too much to lose for a typical 12 week prep so I reapplied last week and was accepted. It's an awesome group of girls with an amazing trainer so I just feel so blessed to have been accepted. I have also started using Instagram so if y'all would like to follow me I would be ecstatic @mandimthompson. I'm back on my meal plan consistently since I have something definitive to work toward and am feeling really good. I have been loosely sticking to it the last few weeks and have maintained my weight but now it's time to get strict again and start losing. My main focus is toning up my legs and butt since I feel like those are my big problem areas. I am also going to try and start making videos so hopefully I can get that all figured out for you. I'll leave you with these before pictures and my current pictures. 

Don't you love the socks with my swimsuit. Awesome look.
