TANK I'm your friend and I will not lie to you to give you a false sense of security. So here comes the honestly from Fire. 1st the Good: Your a monster as I've said so many times. I saw your pics and the mega mass you have is fuqing scary. Your lats, legs shoulders Calves are more then just impressive. I already know that size wise you have me blown away. Now the bad... Yea you are still carrying some bodyfat expecially around the mid section and you are going to have to deal with that. the good news regarding your body fat is this... I do in FACT see a big reduction in several areas. Mainly your face and also in the Oblique area expecially noticable in the back shot. Big Kahuna,, that is what is great about this contest. It gives us time to put on some size as we all have been kicking ass to do. And I doubt any of us guys that were heavier then we liked on Oct. 1st cut our bf to our desired percentages. I sure as hell know I have NOT. But my man you know the way it is. to Loose weight and keep it off and to also build muscle at the same time the BF loss must be gradual. Quick loss means you will not put on size, and that BF usually comes back much easier. Trust me when I say this,, your totally on track and your kicking ass taking no prisoners. IT SHOWS!!! You can believe that. I will NOT kiss your ass and tell you what you want to hear as I expect your honest opinion when you see my pics. Nothing I hate more then all compliments. You cant build on compliments only the criticisms as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks BG, the weed whipper took most of it off, then a semi-load of nair, and then a Mach 3.




Posted by: GettingBigger

Tank..all kidding aside, you look great. How much more weight or bodyfat do you intend on losing?

One day I will get the guts and post my pics...

Are you all natural or have you dabbled in AS at any point in your life.

all natural.no prohormones,no roids.i do plan on trying some P/H's after my show in April. I was lucky enough to have a 2 training partners from the time i was 17 yrs old, one was a natural
pro bodybuilder and the other a national powerlifting champ. both new the in's and out of training and nutrition, they remind me of GoPro, the man is unreal.thanks for the compliments G/B.




Posted by: JLB001

Ok...here they are. I told ya I was FAT!!! LOL

It's an extra 20lbs!! all in the middle and in the rear!!!!

Once I start nailing the cardio and diet, it will start falling off. With 15 weeks to go, should be pretty easy to do. I'm shooting for a show April 17th in Austin. Usuallu average dropping 1.5 to 2lbs per week.

Oh...if anyone has any good suggestions for getting rid of tree trunks....Please pass it on!! I can use the help in that dept. LOL

The edit.......

ok...here goes! I'll have to get pics this week, if that is ok.

Name: Jodie
Age: 37
Height: 5'2

Current weight: 138 appx. 16% bodyfat
Goal: to be 120ish and appx. 8.5 to 9% bodyfat by April 17th for a figure comp. Also to maintain my lean body mass at 110 and change the overall shape of my legs/hams plus add more caps to my shoulders to balance out my legs aka as tree trunks.

Stats:
neck: 12 3/4
chest: 35
upper arm: L. 13 R. 12 3/4
waist: 29
hips: 37
thigh: 25
calves 15 1/2





Posted by: J'Bo

great shape hun.
why would you want to get rid of them?
as you lean up they will shape down nicely

BTW people i am gonna post pics too cause i just found out i have to be ready for May too and so i will play along with you all. But i wont be in the comp



Posted by: BabsieGirl

Good idea.

JLB, you look fine hun!!!! Your abs don't look half as bad as mine



Posted by: Rissole

That'll be sweet J

JLB, great pics you can see whats gonna come outta that
Can you post your current stats too please, just edit your picture post so your stats are near your pic thankyou...



Posted by: JLB001

Thanks! But it is amazing what you can pack on when eatting bad! As far as my legs....those need to be leaned out really bad! But they are the very last thing that comes in for me. I'll be sporting the 6 pack before I have the legs. LOL Gentics! I'll try to post pics every two weeks. Once I nail my diet and cardio, the weight just seems to fall off and I'll look like a completely different person.



Posted by: Stacey

Hey Jlb- You look great!!!!!!

I have legs like you!!!!!!!!!!!!
My friend is doing that comp in Austin on April 17th--- I am wondering if I should do it??? That would be neat!

I hear that! Took about a month and a half off and blew up like a balloon. Most of mine is due to hormones being toyed with by the doctor though.

I usually sport my legs and back before I do my abs. I hold there the most and let go pretty quickly on the glutes, chest & back. Then the legs.....Pff..the abs pretty much come in when they please

Quote:

I think my pics are going to look like yours except my abs are not like yours......My tummy, chest and glutes are holding a lot of water. You'll all see...Please don't make fun of me though when I post'em. I'm having medical issues that are soon to be solved.


JLB -- You're going to do absolutely fine. Can't wait to see progress pics in April.



Posted by: JLB001

You should!!! Unless you will be in the under 5'3. then nooooooooooooooooooooo. (my height class) LOL J/K.

They are alot of work, but also alot of fun!



Posted by: J'Bo

Just a note here before i take off for the weekend. Half way pics MUST be posted by midnight January 11th or we will assume that you have withdrawn from the competition.

When i get back on Sunday i want to see those side by sides as a birthday present

I will be posting mine as well

Make sure your stats are also updated




Posted by: J'Bo

If anyone one has a problem posting their half way pics...PM me your EXCUSE!



Posted by: nikegurl

seems sneaky to pm the excuse in my case since the gist of it is that my lazy ass has been completely slacking.

i'm not gonna post pictures at this point. i'd like to stay in the competition but if that's not an option i'll back out rather than post now. sounds lame but i'm just not going to do something that will make me feel worse. there's no need. me and my mirror know exactly what needs work and i just can't stomach posting 'til the end.

well let the other judges vote then.

i vote no cause rules are rules...sorry.

rules are rules? people have entered long past the entry deadline. what about that rule?

I agree and they didn't post pictures to begin with either.

This is a contest to keep people motivated and if we turn someone down just because of a little rule, doesn't that defeat the purpose of motivation?



Posted by: J'Bo

First of all NO ONE entered after the date.
Fire and I asked everyone if they had a problem with people joining at the half way mark, if anyone had a problem with that they were told to PM me.
Rules are Rules and yes this is all about motivation but it is also called a COMPETITION and some people are taking it that way.
If we let everyone not post half way pics because they did not feel up to it then why should anyone?



Posted by: nikegurl

interesting. what about the thread about changing the end date from 4/30? that's a pretty huge rule to change since that's when judging happens. (rules are rules?)

and people absolutely joined this competition after the 9/30 entry deadline. completely fine with me but your "rules are rules" stance has hardly been consistent.



Posted by: J'Bo

ok you know what now your hacking on RULES...which you dont intend to even follow so whats up with that?

i said i am cool with letting people not post pics if the other judges are ok with that.

pm me and let me know who joined after the deadline because to my knowledge no one has. i believe i stated that anyone that did not have their photos posted in the "let the games begin thread" by the deadline was not in the comp but could play along if they wanted to. they just wont be looked at for the overall judging.

and the only reason why i say that people can pm me with their opinions is because some people bash people for stating how they feel.



Posted by: nikegurl

i'm not the one hacking on the rules.

i don't mind that people joined after 9/30 in the least
i don't mind if everyone wants to change the end date

i just don't think you can let those things happen and then try to say anything about "rules"

I agree
This contest has been a mess since it started. But its for fun and motivation not for cash prizes- so its no biggie.

BUT I do think NG should still take midway pics Jan11th regardless of posting them and then post the before and after together at contest end. Both pics are necessary for juding purposes.

Otherwise, we will not know what improvements were made. So eventually everyone will have to post them anyway.



Posted by: J'Bo

I also stated that if people wanted to pm me the pics i would save them and they wouldnt be posted (if they were embarassed) until the deadline.

Les...if you would like to help get the contest together with Fire and i that would be great.

Reason it has been a mess is because no one listens to rules.

.

I agree with this. I have medical reasons for not wanting to post mine. I guess if I have to, I will and will be embarrassed.......Then on another note, they'll look pretty kick ass posted side by side with my contest end pics........... Regardless I'm taking the pics......just up in the air if I want to share them with everyone or, send them to the judges.

Sorry everyone but the overwhelming vote from the judges is EVERYONE MUST post their half way pics.



Posted by: nikegurl

can we get an updated list of everyone who is in the competition?



Posted by: Jenny

I'm still in. I'm not crazy happy about posting my pics either, but I will. A commitment is a commitment



Posted by: Stacey

I'm still in-- I will have my friend take the pictures of me w/ her digital

Although I haven't really been doing good--so I haven't changed --but my dieting hard begins monday!!!



Posted by: BabsieGirl

I'll post mine although, I doubt they will be in by the 11th. Latest will be Monday since my computers at home are down.

The changes I've made aren't very well either. I blew up like a balloon while taking these darn hormone pills from my dr. I'm currently on Darvasets..However you spell it for pain until Feb 9th or after. Once he gets this mess cleaned up, I'm sure I'll drop a crud load of water weight. When you view my pics......You'll notice the upper half of me is LARGER!!!!!!!! I think I went up like 2 cup sizes in 1.5 months.

Everyone is looking great. I am definitely still in just have only been on the computer once in the past week. I will take pictures today and send them to Riss so they will definitely be in by deadline. Unfortunately, I don't think I have any changes in my body at all. I am hoping I will be pleasantly surprised.

MY COMMENTS ON ALL THE RULE POSTS:
1. J'Bo is correct in regards to following our few rules. They are pretty darn easy if you ask me.

2. PICTURES: I personnally do not have any problem with 1/2 way pictures not being 'POSTED" but I do feel it would be nice if those not wishing them posted to at least send them to J'Bo and JODI.

3. ENDING DATE: The ending date for the contest HAS NOT BEEN CHANGED. I was merely getting a feel as to what the contestants wanted. When the original date was set, I did not take into consideration Contests that some members are entering. I did not nor would change the date unless EVERYONE AGREED INCLUDING ALL THE JUDGES.

4. For the Record, I take offense to this comment:
"This contest has been a mess since it started. But its for fun and motivation not for cash prizes"It has not been a mess at all. Sure we allowed others to join but so what!!! Contestants were asked and nobody had a problem with it. If anything the late comers are the ones at the disadvantage because they have less time then the rest of us. THEY DO HOWEVER HAVE TO POST RECENT PICTURES AT THE 1/2 WAY MARK OR NO THEY ARE NOT PART OF THE CONTEST.
As stated, the contest is for FUN for MOTIVATION and no member here should be excluded!! I WANT EVERYONE MOTIVATED HERE AT IM.COM.
Other then the new contestants, I ask, where has it been a mess, how was it a mess?




Posted by: rock4832

Hey Fire- I've had no problem with this contest whatsoever. Just want to let you know again what a great idea this was!! I love that we are doing this and I think it has given me a new outlook and new goals!



Posted by: firestorm

Well from your photos Rock I totally believe every word you JUST said because it shows in the new pictures for sure. So if this contest is a "MESS" then so be it. It is apparently working very well for everyone that has posted pictures so far. I'm very impressed with your progress as well as the others. Thank you again Rock for your support as well as participating in this Messy contest.

An intelligent person would be able to draw the conclusion your reference to "mess" as sarcastic in regards to what I said.
I would like to take this time to repost my orginal quote:

Saying this contest was messy was not meant to be a putdown. I just think everyone is getting waay too technical. As I clearly (though maybe not clear to everyone) stated before, this contest was supposed to be for fun and motivation...not arguing or making one feel shitty about thier physique.

Seems most peeps are making good progress

An intelligent person would be able to draw the conclusion your reference to "mess" as sarcastic in regards to what I said.

Your intelligent YES but wrong regarding your conclusion. I was not being sarcastic, but offended because I don't see it as a mess. Plain and simple.


Saying this contest was messy was not meant to be a putdown.

You said: "This contest has been a mess since it started"
You may not have meant it to be a putdown but the way you worded it surely sounded as such.
******************************
As for your other statements, I agree with you 100% and your totally correct. I don't want this thing technical and loaded down with rules and regulations. I want as many people involved as possible, I want everyone to benefit and have fun reaching their goals. I would hate for a rule to get in the way of that so in such cases i say screw the rules.
*************
Lesie just drop it dear. Your very much entitled to your opinion and that is cool. I was just a bit taken back by that statement. All over now,I"m over my little hissy fit.

Just a photo so I don't look as fat



Posted by: firestorm

Outstanding work Danny!!! Keep up the fantastic work my friend. I see you dropped some b/f and I see a difference in your shoulders and lats. Awesome!!!!



Posted by: IainDaniel

Iain's Cool, but you can call me Danny LOL

Thanks I noticed shoulders and lats.

BF is still way out of control, mind you I haven't been really worrying about it. That is the next step.

Thanks



Posted by: firestorm

Well your doing great and the BF really isn't out of control as badly as you tend to believe. I think you can drop that weight pretty quickly IAIN.



Posted by: rock4832

I think you look great Iain!! And it really shows in the shoulders and lat!! You've got more of a V in your back now. I really don't think you look fatter than the before. Maybe it's the illusion of the newly built muscle, but I thought you look leaner IMO. Great work buddy!



Posted by: J'Bo

damn people you all rock and thanks Riss for doing all the side by sides

this is gonna be tough...and if you did not feel that you made any progress dont worry we are only half way through

Stacey what about Butterfly?? I'm sure she would take your pic for you? Regardless do your best and if your late getting the pic in then your late. Don't drop out hun. You have been kicking some serious ass and would hate for you to drop out cause you can't find someone with a digital. You can always take a regular pics, mail them to one of us with a scanner(I have one) and we or I could download them for you. Pain in the ass yes but can be done and I'd be more then willing to do the scan and download, that is the easy part.




Posted by: firestorm

Yea that's right I forgot,, ummm Stacey sent the pic to riss but riss is from australia and they are very laid back and move in slow motion down under. I'm certain he will get her pics downloaded within the month. Right Riss????? wink wink



Posted by: Rissole

yeah........ maybe........ i'll see......
might be abit of a stretch........ i gotta have a sleep first...



Posted by: ponyboy

I suddenly realized I'm late getting my pics in. It honestly wouldn't bother me if I'm out because I'm not exactly training for what most others here are training for anyway, but I could have pics up by tomorrow hopefully. Judges just let me know what you would like me to do.



Posted by: Stacey

Ris-- I didn't email you my pics!! HuH?



Posted by: Jenny

Stace, there's a hint.. as in "ooooooh, Stace, thanks for sending the pics, I'll post them in a week" HINT.. Which would give you some more time



Posted by: Stacey

Thanks Fire-- I don't know-- I don't have a lot of extra cash for all that stuff right now-

I'll just have to be out



Posted by: ponyboy

In retrospect folks, I think I'm going to drop out too. Doesn't really make sense when I'm training for something different than anyone else and I'm not caring about maintaining my LBM.

Thanks to everyone in the comp for their support and comments in my journal! Good luck to everyone!



Posted by: nikegurl

everyone is doing so well!

i'll definitely be following along and i'll be training hard and sticking to my eating plan.

but i'm dropping out b/c i'm not willing to post or send midway photos to anyone.

i'll still post my before and afters in my new journal if anyone's interested.

again - you guys are doing great! i'll be cheering everyone on.



Posted by: Stacey

Good Luck ponyboy!!

Fire told her to take normal pics and post them then one of us would scan them for her...



Posted by: Eggs

Everyone, your pics are looking great, keep up the good work! Its nice to see all the improvement you are making.

Jenny, you're looking so good honey, theres a huge difference in the before and after pics, and I think despite the fact that you didnt want to post them, that you are doing wonderfully Good job hottie

She knows she can always send them to me, it'd only take a day for me to get them.

Stacey - John has to go up that way to get Tyler on Friday and he could meet up with you and take the pics with our digi cam... don't worry, he's not a perv or anything OR I could go with him Sun when he takes Tyler home and we could meet then to get the pics. What do ya say?

Sooo...its Jan 15th..Where are we with midway pics? Are only those that submitted a part of the contest?

Who is still in the contest?



Posted by: nikegurl

i'm still acting like i'm in (with my training and eating) but technically i'm out since i just couldn't bring myself to do the midway photos. so i'm "playing along at home" in an unofficial capacity now.



Posted by: Rissole

NG i think you should stiil take pics.... still be in the comp but post your midways at the end If thats ok with everyone

As I said earlier its fine with me but others disagreed.



Posted by: firestorm

Personnally I say to everyone that has at least submitted "before" pics to stay in the contest and just submit the "after" pics. Seriously, the mid point pics really mean nothing. No judging whatsoever is happening now anyway. They were just for inspiration and motivation and for fun. I don't think these mid pics should be manditory expecially since so many people are insecure and are dropping out of the contest. I don't want ANYONE DROPPING OUT DAG GUM IT!!! Stay in and just submit the finished product. That is MY RULE STARTING NOW. MID PICS NOT MANDITORY AND THAT IS THE FINAL WORD ON THE PICTURES.



Posted by: 8 pak man

sorry all been busy modeating at another site slipped my mind bout the end of the comp. SOrry for not submitting new pics you all look great. I know im out of the comp but if u still want updated pics i can send them in they just wont matter or count. AS i said before great job everyone.



Posted by: firestorm

8 You don't have to be out of the comp. Post the pics regardless Like to see your progress.



Posted by: 8 pak man

can someone put the new and the old beside each other cuz i dont know how?



Posted by: firestorm

No worries *pak post them in your journal. Send a message to Rissole asking him to do it for you. he has been doing it for all of us.

Damn Babs from the way you were talking I was expecting to see Sasquash!! 1st off,,,I'd KILL for your calves. Secondly I don't think you look bad in the least in fact you look bulkier not fatter! I'll bet when you start cutting a bit you will see a big difference in muscle size when compared to your 1st photos. I think the extra weight will end up helping you in the long run. Believe that!!!
Fire



Posted by: Rissole

I totally agree Fire There's some good extra muscle there



Posted by: firestorm

Ya see Riss, just as I said about myself. We have a totally different perception about ourselves then what others see. I suppose in a way it's a good thing.

Note: Riss that last pic didn't work bro.



Posted by: rock4832

Far out here we go with the Buddha thing again...
Burner called me that in an email and its my old nickname
I've had it since i was 12 and still get called it on the odd occasion now....
Told ya you were a prophet... not like a Buddah like a gift from our good Lord



Posted by: firestorm

Oh well my friend you won't ever hear me calling you Buddah that's for sure. I think you look fantastic and love the mass you put on dawg. And did you just call me a prophet as in a gift from God? I think your giving me a compliment??? If so that was very kind of you and I'm touched. If your being scarcastic then F#$K YOU BUDDAH.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
