Josie's little place within the forum!

Josie · 05-26-2005, 08:39 PM

Well, well, well!

Seems like the female forum needs a jump start so, yours truly, will do her part!

As a bunch already now I am training for my very first figure competition, which was supposed to take place on July 3rd but has been postponed.

...to my relief I have to admit since I didn't feel ready. After all it's the first comp and I'd like to stand out!

I do not have the exact date for the other ones yet as there are multiple possibilities (one (very small one) in August, one in September and one (that I'm doing for sure) in November, with various associations.

So let's say that I'm working hard to look my very best for any of those!

Without further ado, here are a few pics. One is when I started the countdown to the competition (april 1rst) and two of what my body looks like now.

Right now I'm at 124,25 lbs and 17,4% so still a lot of work ahead!

Josie · 05-26-2005, 08:41 PM

I just realized that the shadow in first pic make me look a bit fater so here's another one

Gappa238 · 05-26-2005, 09:42 PM

I know almost went on a liquid diet when I saw this LOL !

I'm just a perfectionnist I prefer the other pic :p

Josie · 05-27-2005, 01:05 PM

Thank you all!

Well now I'm officially done for the week-end, I had 2 amazing weeks and did not cheat or skip one workout... but this morning I had to stop mid-way as I thought I would throw up.

This is the first time something like this has happened to me, so I'll take the week-end off and will cheat tonight or tomorrow :p

oOooo the sweet idea of having forbidden food!
