I believe my energy connects me to wonderful people.  I risk… I jump off the cliff expecting to fly… and I always do… FLY!!

My energy brought me to this book today.  And I am only half way through the book, but I feel an intense desire to share it with you!  Join me if you will.

“Most of us are uncomfortable thinking of ourselves as artists… But each of us is an artist… The reason you were born was to leave your own indelible mark on the world. This is your authenticity… Respect your creative urges… step out in faith…”

I already filmed with Tiny Entourage and I will let you know when that is available on the web.

The next job is CRAZY AWESOME!!  I will be 3D imaged for a video game!!!  I am super pumped!!

A good friend asked me yesterday.  A year ago, did you think you would be doing all this.  The answer is YES!!  I visualized this for a long time.  I put all my energy in the right direction.  I am excited, but not surprised.

Conceive! Believe! Receive! … NOW GO OUT THERE AND DO IT!  YOU ONLY GET ONE GO ROUND IN THIS LIFE!!

When I got home I decided a nap would be good… 4 HOURS LATER, I WOKE UP.  Four hours, holy smokes!  My body was telling me it needed recovery time.  I slept deep and was definitely in recovery mode.  Your body grows and heals when you sleep.

When I was training heavy powerlifting, my sleep regimen was top priority.  As it should be with all active powerlifters and bodybuilders.  You are just cheating yourself if you don’t allow your body to recover.  When those muscle fibers tear down during training, you want them to build back up.  This process takes place when you sleep.

Good News!!  I got casted for one of the projects this week.  I will release the name of the show when I get permission.  It is completely type cast, which I totally DIG!

Another awesome thing…. I am going to a Dallas Cowboys game IN Dallas!!  One of my fans invited me down and I took him up on it.  TIME TO LIVE A LITTLE!!  I have never been to a pro game.  The Cowboys have a new stadium, so it should be amazing!

I cleaned up my food program; I am back on the Paleo diet. I am burning 500 calories in my heart rate zone before breakfast. Then I eat a bit of raw oatmeal and hit the weights. At night I am going to MMA classes. I leave there sweating like no other.

I have lost 8 pounds in about 4 days and I will tell you why. I am a big girl, over 200 lbs, so my fluctuation may be double yours. I was bloated from eating carbs. Cut the carbs and lose that bloat. Plus, I sweat so much at MMA practice, my weight is most likely a bit lower from that. Also, I have lost some bodyfat from working my booty off.

Good timing for the bloat to come off… I have had 2 auditions in two days.  Oh yeah!

Any questions? Hit me up. becca@beccaswanson.com

Now, I am feeling 100% and I am back on the Paleo diet.  While on the Stairmaster today, I decided… this just ain’t cuttin’ it.  So, I set out to do what I have been wanting to do for a long, long time.  I found an MMA gym.  Low and behold, look who is about 5 minutes away.

Bas Rutten’s MMA Gym is just down the street.  I took my self down there to check it out and worked out with Hector Pena’s class.  Hector is a 12 time World Champion Kickboxer.

The class was great!  I am going tomorrow morning at 7 am for the jiu-jitsu class.  Don’t ask me how far I will take this.  I have an idea, but for now, I am shaping up. It is good to be back on track.

The night ended early…. And then I heard it again… Music! When I first moved in my place I thought someone was having a party with a band. Then a couple weeks later I thought it was a group practicing in their garage. Today I realized it was coming from the plaza across the main street.

So tonight I slipped a simple skirt on with a fitted shirt and some heels… And I headed over there. Yes, by myself. It was a Mexican Bar. The band was playing a mix of 80s, 90s and current tunes… And everyone was singing and drinking and dancing.

I introduced myself to a few people and found my way to the dance floor. I danced with strangers “Victoria” and “Angie”. We cleared the pipes by screaming Highway to Hell with everyone else. Then “Elwood” bought me a beer and “Joe” danced with me to She’s a Brick House. We all swayed arm in arm to Bohemian Rhapsody at the end.

I walked home when the band was done. This is freedom… Winging the night, flying solo. It was FUN!

I get 30 emails a day about casting calls. I may submit to 2-4 per week. Tuesday night, I saw a casting call for a talk show in which I was unfamiliar. I wanted to submit to it, but first I wanted to change my profile pictures, which takes a couple of days. That night I googled the talk show and spent ten minutes watching clips from the show. It seems like a good place for the Strongest Woman in the World to be interviewed.

The next day, I had plans to lift at Venice Gold’s Gym and meet a high school friend, Erin, for lunch. I felt great! The workout was good, my body felt good, my energy was good… the day was going as planned. After lunch, my friend and I wandered down to Muscle Beach in Venice. I ran into a Venice friend, Dave, who joked, “Did you bring your camera crew?” I looked behind me and there was a small camera crew videotaping on Venice Boardwalk. We had a good laugh.

Next thing you know, the crew asked Dave and I if we would participate in an interview. The piece was for the Colbert Report… a talk show!! Talk about ENERGY!! We commented on Rawsome, a raw, organic food market and the FDA controlling what we eat.

Let me reiterate! Open your mind… send out an energy about a topic… ask the universe for it… it will ATTRACT the energy you are asking for.  Just like I was sending out energy about a talk show the night before a talk show asked me to comment on a topic.

Go… Conceive, Believe and Receive!!

Here are a few pictures of me and Mike O’Hearn working out. And some pictures of me and Banjo. Enjoy!

Filming has been great! Instead of just having a photo shoot today, I am back in set with Haunting Pusher.

Later tonight I am doing a photo shoot for a project capturing Double Digit Females… women who wear size 10 and over. The smallest my hips and waist get is a size ten. My upper body is size 16 at least.

I am excited to own this super size sexy body. So, I was a shoe in for the shoot.

Keep with me everyone! I will pick up my posting again next week!
