Moving..

Hi everyone-sorry it has taken me forever to post but I am not going to be posting here anymore-I finally finished setting up a my space page so it would just be easier for me to post and keep a journal there instead of going back and forth between the two spots and posting in both places. I hope you will hop on over and check it out as I love chatting with everyone and look forward to your comments. You can see it at http://www.myspace.com/staceykeller I will probably start keeping a journal there on Monday. Stay tuned more great things to come and I will be updating pics as I get further along : )

Hey guys! I'm outta here tomorrow so this will be my last post until I get back. If I get a chance to in Oklohoma I will but I may be gitten my ass whooped-lol-Nah I can take it I'm orginally from Philly! Yo Rocko! Its already starting to look up-my plane seat is my only niece's Field Hockey number for the Drexel Dragons she plays for (Seat 7C) and her name is Chirstina so seat 7C : ) gotta love omens right. At least I look at it as a positive one. My sweet and loving boyfriend has agreed to look after the 3 girls(aka kittys) for me so that's a great thing. I wish he was coming I know he can't and would be there if he could-he will be at my disposal 24/7 thought via cell if I need him mentally that is : ) lov ya baby-here's your fav picture

I'm leaving in 2 more days...

Hey all,

I'm really starting to get nervous about goin to Oklohoma by myself. Don't get me wrong, its very exciting to be able to do what I have always wanted to do at least this is getting me one step closer to my dream but without my monkey going, its going to be tough. He is my support system-when I doubt myself he is always there to give me the courage to move on. I am always doubting myself and don't give myself enough credit. It is only for 6 days but 6 days I have not been apart from him, or my family or anything that is familiar to me by myself too. On top of it all, I have to fly : ( I hate flying before 9/11 it was not that bad but now with all the precautions, etc what a hassle it is, can't take this can't take that or this has to be checked and this can't be carried on the plane-what a pain! ok, I'm done ranting for the night. I'll try to post one more time before I go then you won't hear from me most likely until I get back with lots to say and great pictures too I hope. Nite : )

Been Really Busy

Ok, okay...I know I haven't posted in awhile but I've been very busy. I rescued a stray cat and she's finally starting to let me get some sleep. It was rough I tell you. Remind me to stop doing this-I can't save the world! Now, I know how single mothers feel raising kids on their own and mine are just cats! Other then the new addition-training is going very well I'm suprised I'm holding at 160 pounds and I can still see definition in my abs. I'm not even eating all clean because what's the point. I'm off season, I need to train hard to grow and eat and feed my muscles and until I go out to Oklohoma next week and get everyting nailed down from Howard, I might as well just enjoy myself : ) I will leave with a picture that was from earlier-SEE I'M A GROWING GIRL!

Well what a weekend! shear exhaustion and I did not get to do everything I needed to get done-oh well right there's always next weekend. I'm still holding strong at 160.5 as of 10 am this morning so I'm happy about that. I had to doggie sit last night and let's just say my sister's house is "Temptation Island" def not a place you want to frequent often when you are getting ready for your competition. I will leave everyone with this pic from competition

Yay!!! HAPPY FRIDAY!!! its the weekend! I don't know about anyone else but the week just flew by for me. I have not got on the scale since the other day-not that I don't want to-I just keep on forgetting. I don't really have a busy weekend planned but then again-after thinking of what has to get done this weekend, it is going to be kinda busy-don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing yet-I will have to let ya know after the weekend. I just love Friday's because I don't have to get up for work tomorrow and although my boyfriend and I like to hit the gym early, we don't HAVE to be there early and that's the best part about it all. Which brings me to the subject of my boyfriend, if you ever hear me refer to Monkey-that's him! that is the nickname I gave him-don't ask me why I just did-thought it was cute like him : ) He is the best boyfriend a girl could ever want. He is the reason I am pursuing my dream. I am able to do the things I want to do because of him. It takes a lot ot be able to focus 100% plus on your show when you work full time and in an office or any other stressful work environment where you have to punch a clock and report to someone all the time. Since we have been together, he has helped me pursue the things I love and that make me happy day to day without any undue stress and I just want to thank you again Monkey and tell you I love you. He is just so supportive, and is always boosting my confidence when I need it the most and somedays that is a lot and I'm not always the most pleasant person : ) (opps). He puts up with me (lol). On another note, I have these two wacky kittens, well cats now bec they are a year old and they are running around now like two nit wits! I mean really-you would think I have two, three year olds running around. Twice now I have had to get up and yell at them and find out what they are up to because of all the commotion and noise they are causing. It sounds like they are tearing up the place-of course when I went out the first time to yell they are both looking up at me with the innocent eyes like who us? what'd we do Ma? we're not doin anything honest. Now, I just went out for the 2nd time and said what's going on with you two if i have to put you both in sep rooms and now I get the wasent me ma looks it was her and they are both looking at each other-catz! love em but drive ya nutz! Anyways I'll leave ya wit a picture that pretty much says it all- : )

I have not stepped on the scale today, but only because I'm feeling VERY BLOATED! one tends to get to know their bodies pretty well esp when it comes to retaining water-I KNOW, the hands get bloated, face, under the eyes-BLAH! however nothing compares to the water retention I got after my shows in 2005 OMG can you say BLOATED! I wish I had a picture to post so I could show everone how swollen my ankles were! In any event-Have to go get ready to go to work : ( not too bad today just a couple of hours. I think I'm going to do some cardio and maybe calves-I def have to do cardio. If you're reading this MONKEY, I LOVE YOU!

Still Holding at 159.8

Well...I weighed myself last night and I'm 159.8 so not quite 160 but almost (hehe) Not too bad for 10pm at night either after food consumption and liquids all day. Here is the pic I said I was going to post although this picture was about a month ago and I weighed about 153-155 at the most.

Day One and the Journey Begins

Hi Everyone!

My name is Staceylynn and I'm from Pa. I am a bodybuilder and I'm gearing up to put some serious size on now (off season) so I can hang with the "bigger gals" in a National level competition. This will be my first National show-so I am nervous and excited all at the same time. I just want to do my best. I will be leaving for OK soon to work with a wonderful traner, who has worked with many well known competitors-some pros now while others he has helped make "pro" and I am so blessed to have him willing and able to work with me since I'm really a "nobody" in comparison to the caliber of these women he has on his resume. I'm going to post some pics for ya of when I won in 2005. I have competed in NJ shows for the most part and had a very successful 2005 year of competing. I won all three of my shows not to mention the overall, however the competition was nothing like it will be on a National level. I am also going to post some off season as in present shots-please be kind : ( remember these are off-season-you bodybuilders will know what I'm talking about but for you other people you may think I look like a huge cow. Its what we have to do in order to put on quality muscle-train hard and EAT to grow. (lol) the fun part.
