Stacey's First Competition Journal

(CLICK HERE here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Stacey

Okay I have decided to Compete

!! I'm really excited about this because I'm hoping that it will help me get noticed for fitness modeling. Who Knows. But I think this will be fun.

I'm starting my journal early because I am going to need A LOT of help preparing for this comp. I have No clue about them-- I am trying to find some to attend (here in Texas) before I go onstage. I know thats a big must.

My Comp is 18 weeks away. May 15, 2004 NPC- Lee Lambrada here in Houston!!

Yeah.

SOOO I should start SERIOUSLY Dieting-no cheating at 16 weeks out????

I have been eating clean- with small slip ups--but no big deal.

The only body part that will be a challenge for me to get in tip top shape by May is my Legs. I'm so scared they won't be there by then. I have Thick muscular legs--Thanks to my Granny

--- So I need to shape my calves also!! My arms are So cut right now--its awesome. So Don't want them to get to big to where My body is not proportioned right.

Am I thinking right about all this???

I Will REALLY Appreciate all the advice and help from all of you. I'm hoping J'Bo & Leslie will have a little time to help me also.

Scared But Excited,
Stacey

I will take measurements this weekend--or should I when I'm 16 weeks out??

I weigh 125 right now-- and I'm 5'5

Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey Stac....glad you started this journal. It was hard to follow you over there in the other journal forum. I kept having to jump back and forth....it was starting to hurt my legs.....

I think you're probably right about starting now. 16 weeks is easier to work with than only 12, ya know? What about the gym? Have you started going to Bally's yet? When are you going to start? Didn't you say that you had a month pass? That four weeks could really help you where your legs are concerned.

What do you want to do? Lean them out or build them up or work on the definition.....what?? I know there are plenty of people on this site to help you and that would do it gladly, but I think you seriously need to invest in a professional that can work one on one with you. I don't know fully yet, but I can tell you, the best money I've spent in a long time has been on my trainer. He really is wonderful and he is working me hard.....(i.e., kickin' my ass!!!!)

Posted by: Fitgirl70

You're only 18 weeks out now!!!!

Posted by: butterfly

Go ahead and take measurements now and then again at 16 weeks out so we can all see how you are progressing.

Where in Houston is the comp??? I'll definitely be there cheering you on! Maybe BandaidWoman will come too

Posted by: Fitgirl70

I'm definitely coming!!!!!

Posted by: Fitgirl70

Yeah, we all get to finally meet!!!!!!

Posted by: Stacey

Hey FG--Thanks honey-- I know it was hard going back & forth to the journals!!

Yep I'm 18 weeks out now.

I want to lean out my legs- and build calf muscle (more shape them really-)

I will try and take pics this weekend of them--but I definalty will get measurements up here by Monday!

(need to buy it)

I know-- I wish I could hire someone--but I DO NOT have the extra cash!!

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT-- I WILL NEED IT!

Posted by: Stacey

HEY Ann-- It's at the George R. Brown Convention center!!

I'm so excited-- Not doing it to win or anything- but for the experience!!!!

I'm soooo happy you & FG will be there!!! Maybe I can have ya'll backstage with me--lol!

Posted by: JLB001

I wish I was only 125! I've got 20 to drop by then! you might want to get your bodyfat checked to see what your lean mass is at, its a good way to judge what you may need to gain or loose. I have a great guy over at one to one on Richmond/Unity that does 9 sights for $5! Its way better than doing 3, which only get our fattest areas and makes us completely freak out!

hehe...you're 5'5.....hehe, I won't have to worry about your tall butt in my class.

Posted by: butterfly

I'm such a doof... I meant JLB001, not Bandaidwoman

JLB - I can't remember which thread it was where I asked you what part of Houston you're in???

Posted by: Stacey

HEY Girl~~ Oh I will have to get directions to that place on Unity-- I will go there!!!

I had mine do at my gym 2 weeks ago or so--but I don't know how accurate it is-- the trainer told me it was 16.5 % (or 16-can't remember) BUT Theres no way- I bet I'm 19 or 20. I am thin though?! I don't know. I just can't see it.

I will get it done there!

Yep We won't be in the same class--but honey I know I won't beat you-- I have never done this before-u have and know what your doing!!!!!! I have no chest muscles either-- NEVER work them- need to start!

Posted by: butterfly

Backstage??? Too cool!!!

Posted by: jstar

Yes!!!

I am so glad you decided to compete! As far as getting recognized for fitness modeling I would try to do a Fitness America show too. There is one in Dallas on 5/22. Check out the site: fitnessamerica.com under event schedules.

You are gonna be great

Posted by: Stacey

LoL AT BF---she works down the road from my office!!!!! Crazy!!

Posted by: Stacey

thanks J'star--I heard about that Dallas one!

Posted by: BabsieGirl

Good luck Stacey.

Little advice....When you hit 16 weeks....No slip ups are allowed. You'll only further your date by doing that. Keep focus and try to keep your sanity, it's hard. That goes pretty quick when you're carb depleted. You'll be the bitch from hell as the days creep closer and closer to comp date.

To prepare for your comp day. Make up a list of items to pack 1 week before the comp. This will alarm you if you need to go out for last minute shopping. I have a suit lady that majority of the Pro's use to make posing suits. She is awesome. Let me know if you want her link. She's fabulous. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM JAGWARE!!!!!!!!!!!Don't go spending $100's of dollars on high heel shoes. Rather go to your local Nouvalty "dress up" store and pick them up their. Should only cost $60 to $100. Depends on the style you go for.

I'll pass on some of my favorite links tomorrow.

Posted by: JLB001

Oh...ebay has the clear stripper shoes for cheap! I got a great pair on ebay for $29. Just type in "clear shoes"

Posted by: jstar

Yeah - I did the Boston one and backstage some girls were getting offered fitness shoots (not me though..waaaaa

)

You could be 16.5, really....I was measured 2 wks ago at 16.7 (calipers) and thought it must have been a HUGE mistake and I feel SO FAT but in reality there is a lot of muscle under there and water retention going on. My trainer said between 9-10.5% is what I am aiming for, but that is me so it's just a general guideline.

With 18 wks to go you have plenty of time to experiment and get there and don't worry I am sure you will get loads of good advice from those on this board who know how to get in contest condition!

Posted by: JLB001

Umm...John Brockhause's/ brockbauer(?) number for the BF is 281-261-0997 or one to one at 713-339-110. If you pick up the Health and Fitness thingie from the gym for this month, he is one page 53. You'll just love him to death. Very nice guy. He is the only one I trust on doing my BF.

Posted by: butterfly

One clear advantage you'll have is that beautiful smile!!!

Posted by: JLB001

opps.....713-339-1100.

Damn I need to change my hair color again.

Posted by: JLB001

Let's see. Bonnie is in Dallas, she makes suits. Price is pretty decent and she does an excellent job, her number is 817-265-4246. She custome makes all her suits to fit your measurements.

Where the heck were you when I need to know these things.

Hell Stacey...do that....make sure you clean them well....They get pretty stained from comp tan...and you never know what kind of fungus people have..........

Posted by: JLB001

You can actually get some new on there. The person I got mine from had worn them once to some dinner thing. No foot fungus. and hardly any scuff marks on the bootm.

Posted by: BabsieGirl

That's really awsome...........Good for you....yippie.......

Okay...I'm going home now to eat some veggies and see what kind of reward I wanna give myself

nite nite

Posted by: Hammerlynn

Yep! My friend's who do fitness got theirs at a "stripper" store

Posted by: Jenny

Great new journal stace!! I don't think you'll have any prob getting down to around 10% since you are already lean

Focus on trying to build some mass first maybe. But, I haven't seen any pics for a while, so I don't really know where you're at. Get some new pics up for us

I'm sure J'bo would love to help with your diet if you ask her

running bleachers ... I haven't heard that for some time! Stacey, that is some hard core cardio! Good for you. It would be nice to do that again ... too bad we're so far apart, I'd run bleachers with you.

Good luck in the upcoming figure comp ... for the few pics you've posted, I think you'll do great!

Posted by: Stacey

JENNY-- Thanks honey-- I WILL take pictures this weekend

Posted by: Stacey

NT-- I know I have not ran the bleachers at my old high school track in probably a year. That crap is HARD!! I will have to build up to it- So I will probably start on sunday.

Man I wish you could do it with me.
Thanks honey

How is Mrs. Nt doing??

The missus is better this morning ... she is at work. She has an appointment with the specialist to get to the bottom of whatever is ailing her.

When you become a famous fitness model, you can fly me in and we'll run the bleachers together ... Matt and the missus can sit in the field watching us kill ourselves

Stacey,

Try and do the bodyfat first thing in the am if you can. From there be sure you go the same time each you go. I tend to go on Friday's around 8am, gives me enough time to get back to work from there.

keep your workouts under an hour, then add in your cardio. There is no need to lift for 2 hours, you'll be over training your body and won't look like ya want it too. I can usually knock out my workout in 45 mins to an hour tops.

The Labrada show will have both figure and fitness. When you get the application for the show, that is where you put what you will be doing.

If you want someone to go run those bleechers with you this weekend, give me a yell. I'm game! I have a killer workout from Mike Davies that will blow our butts off.

Posted by: Stacey

YEAH FG!! Your rockin' babe!!!

Posted by: Stacey

NT-- I will be thinking & praying for her!

& That would be awesome to fly you in to run w/ you--LOL!!!

I feel like you and I are in this together--thanks so much! I will definatley get my bodyfat tested in the AM--is he open on the weekends, do ya know?!

Ya kNOW- I am SO happy you told me about the workouts--My usually last an hour- to an hour and 15 minutes. (IF I do cardio) If not then I do about 45min. weight workout. I was sooo scared when I read in the mags last night that these girl go for so long.
Thank you.

Good to hear that I can do figure at the Lambrada. Man I'm scared!!!!!!

This sunday I am running bleachers--but I haven't in forever- Let me go one or two times then we can go together FOR SURE!

Posted by: DrChiro

to go back to the stripper shoes for a moment:

Jodie never mentioned that you have to get used to the stripper shoes because they have such a big heel on them and that she wears them around the apartment while she cooks and does dishes for a week or two before the show....your boyfriend will approve...trust me.

(just had to take this opportunity to make her blush)

Posted by: Stacey

LMAO!!!! I will have to do that!! THANKS DR.

Are you her honey???

Posted by: JLB001

hush Craig. LOL go back to my thread and post that there. LOL

You're welcome. I'm still trying to find out where I put my check list though.

Posted by: Fitgirl70

Stacey, I can't believe you said "I hope not" either. I have been the same way too for the past two days. I'm crampy and a little irritated, so I know my stupid Aunt Flo is on her way.

OH well, at least the bloating will go down....

Gotta get back to work. Good workout last night and the meals look good. Can't wait to see you in HOuston

Posted by: DrChiro

Oh you're JLB's honey!!! I got confused.

My hubby grew up in Stinkadena

I try to avoid the place entirely

I love Clear Lake! It's like a whole little town in itself, we've got everything we need here and great schools too. And the club/party/shopping scene in Houston is only 20 mins away.

I work in the Export Control office for Johnson Space Center (JSC). I'm the IT person so I get to classify all the software, computers and related items per the U.S. Export Regulations. The regs were written by lawyers so it's pretty dry stuff... the part I love about my job is the people I work with!

Posted by: DrChiro

all that computer IT stuff is over my head... as long as you like who you work with you can't go wrong.

As far as the club scene in houston...jodie and I dont go out much...we are usually dieting so we dont drink much...we are both so busy with training and work/school that we just kind of like to take it easy when we finally get some time off.

Maybe you can suggest a cool "low key" place to hang out so I can take my sweetie out

Hey...anyone ever tell you your hubby looks a little like scott ian from anthrax? (your hubby looks better....and i mean that in only the straightest non-gay way)

(hmm somehow this conversation got started on Stacey's thread..sorry about that)

Posted by: ZECH

Stacy if I lived closer I would love to be your photographer!!

Posted by: Leslie

Good luck Stacey

I know you will love this experience.

You do need to get your body fat tested though- that will help determine when your super strict diet should begin- at 16 weeks or 12 weeks ect. For now I would suggest slowly bringing up your carbs until your diet start date. If you start out too low in cals then you will have no tweaks and be left stuck in a plateau.

Have you decided what kind of diet you are going to follow?
The diet and your suits should be your priority right now.
(Since most suits req 2-3 months to make if you go with custom. A cheaper alternative are standard suits at www.jagware.com *I know Babsie had an issue with them but my first suit turned out great- the blue one in my gallery* )

BTW Figure gals do not w/o for 2 hours a day. Do you think they would share their secrets wuth th e world?

Besudes unless you are on steroids- by working out doing cardio 2 hours a day your LBM would diminish.

JBO and Babsie have posted many great links and tips.
You are going to be great!

Posted by: butterfly

Leslie - that jagware link takes you to a technology company website... here's the correct one http://www.jagware-posingsuits.com/

Posted by: butterfly

DrChiro - We don't get up to Houston much ourselves, it's just nice it's so close.

I hear ya about being so busy! We've got two kids and another on the way! Cory is 16 and mine, Tyler is 9 and is the hubby's, so we wanted one together.

I told him what you said about scott ian from anthrax and he laughed.

I don't think Stacey minds too much

There is no reason not to do it! Being nervous goes along with the territory of being a figure/fitness competitor. Just use the nervous enegry to fire up your workouts.

Thinking of buying the Strawberry Kiwi Nectar protein powder tomorrow-- you guys let me know if anyone has tried it! ThANKS

Posted by: butterfly

He's so out of sync with all that... he goes to the gym a couple times a week but he's not really watching his diet so it'd be pointless for him to take the Leptigen.

I would rather give it to you then have it go bad sitting in my cabinet.

It's the non-flavored version so you'll have to get something to put it in. That Crystal Light in lemonade is my fave. You can get the powder version and mix it with the Leptigen then add water later at work or where ever you are.

Posted by: Stacey

OH WoW Thank you so much Ann!! I really REALLY appreciate it!!!!! I will get Crystal light to mix it with! THANK YOU!!!!
Your Awesome!

Stacey,

If the two people listed for suits turn out to be too costly, give Bonnie a call. She makes them at a reseaonable cost. She has done all my suits for me. Sometimes it is worth the drive up to Dallas for the initital fitting, plus if you go around the time of the Coleman, you could catch that show.

In order to pack for success my competition checklist includes the following items:

Makeup that you use

I always go to the competition with my makeup already done, however, depending on stage lighting you could need more. Lipstick is notorious for coming off so be prepared for touch ups.

Bikini Bite

This is a roll-on glue used to attach your suit to your skin in the exact place that you want it. You will not have to worry about your suit moving or creeping up!

Travel Sewing Kit, Safety Pins, Scissors

If your costume rips or needs adjustment you’ll be prepared.

Extra Tapes Of Your Music

This is very important to have with you. If your tape doesn’t work or is misplaced you have another one. It’s also nice to sit and listen to your music with a Walkman before the contest.

Hair Spray & Any Hair Accessories

It’s important that your hair is neat and off your face.

Nail Polish & Nail Glue

If a nail breaks, lifts or gets scuffed, you’ll be able to fix it.

Tanning Product

You may need to do some last minute touch ups or even an entire coat depending on the stage lighting. Your coloring is essential for you to be successful -- the darker you are on stage, the better you’ll look!

Plastic Gloves

You don’t want the palms of your hands to turn black due to the tanning cream so wear gloves when applying it.

Resistant Workout Bands

These bands are great to help you pump up and give fullness to your muscles before going on stage. Even though this is a fitness competition you’ll look better with a little muscle pump.

Skin Lotion

No oils are allowed in fitness competitions due to safety reasons since you will be performing a routine and a slippery stage would be quite dangerous. I use a moisturizer that helps prevent the drying that the tanning creams cause and a sparkle lotion that gives my skin a nice glow.

Vaseline

Put this over your front teeth so that you can keep smiling even if your mouth becomes dry.

Grippers For Heels

You don’t want to have to worry about slipping in your new shoes on stage while you’re walking or doing quarter turns.

Cover-up For Your Skin

It’s best to try and hide any blemishes, bruises or tattoos that you have.

Hairdryer & Curling Iron

A hairdryer is always good to have around if something gets wet and needs drying or if an outfit gets stained and has to be washed and then dried. It’s also good for drying the tanning products if another coat was applied. Curling irons are good for adding in some last minute curls since

Comfortable Warm Ups

It’s important to keep your muscles warm while you’re in your physique suits waiting your turn. You want your muscles to be relaxed and warm to prevent injury during your routine. If you’re cold your muscles will be tight and you will have a greater risk for injury.

Protective Warm Up Gear

Use kneepads and wrist wraps for practicing your routine backstage. You don’t want to risk injury or bruising before you perform.

Towel

You may sweat while warming up or practicing your routine so have a towel to dry off. You don’t want to slip during your performance due to sweat you never wiped off.

Extra Stones & Material Glue

If stones fall off any of your outfits you’ll be able to fix them in a jiffy.

Jewelry

You are allowed to wear jewelry in the physique rounds but make sure that it is classy and doesn’t take away from your physique.

Snacks

Pack water and foods for energy.

Back Up Costumes & Suits

This is nice to have but often not economical. Be extra careful to keep track of your belongings at the contest. If you are flying on a plane carry on your outfits and shoes.

Camera

It’s great to get some back-stage memories of your contests. You will always make new friends. Hopefully, you will have someone in the audience with a camera taking pictures of you on stage. Pictures enable you to look back at a later date and critique yourself so that you can make changes for your next contest.

Business Cards or Photographs

Someone at the show may be interested in hiring you for a modeling job or endorsement so be prepared!

Last, But Not Least, Extra Shoe Laces In Case One Of Them Breaks! ****If you're doing Fitness and Figure*****

Preparation and organization are the keys to success with anything you do in life. So make your list and check it twice. If you are prepared for anything to happen, then everything will go smoothly on contest day and you’ll have no worries.

You don't need crystal light anymore. If you recently purchased Leptigen it now comes Fruit Punch Flavored.

This is the original non-flavored stuff. Do you know what the shelf life is for Leptigen?

Posted by: axk

I don't know if you use any of these products, but Bulk Nutrition is offering a Muscle & Fitness promotion on supplements:

The fruit flavored Leptigen is much better. I used to mix the prototype with flavored water because the taste wasn't that great. With the new formula, I just use water.

Posted by: Stacey

Babs--thanks soooo much!!!!!!!! Your the best-- I really really appreciate that!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: Stacey

ohhh don't be scared to post!!

Posted by: ncgirl21

Hey- I won't crowd your journal, I just wanted to know if you had a website set up. I know you are interested in modeling and a girl I met on another board got her start after she posted her pics. and comp pics. on her website and someone saw them. You could also try sending in your diet/workout routine and before and after photos into Muscle and Fitness Hers because they often feature articles like that and it's another way to get noticed!! Just a suggestion- Good Luck (not that you need it!!!)

Posted by: Stacey

Stacey, sorry I'm on so late and you're not. But I've been meaning to ask you what you thought of that Kroger Salad Bar? I really like it when I'm in a pinch for some food that's pretty healthy. You can always count on a salad, ya know?

Awwww, your bgels sound good. I wish I could have one.

When do you start cutting? Have you done anything for the comp yet? Like, do you have to get an application or anything like that? I no ABSOLUTELY NADDA about the procedures and stuff!!!

I'm living vicariously through you, you know!!

Gotta get some sleep now. I have my cardio day tomorrow!!

Hey Stace, good morning!!!

How are you today? I'm good, early, but good. I got up earlier than usual, got in to the gym earlier than usual, got to work earlier than usual.......you know, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Maybe I'll get to leave early today --

Yeah, like that's gonna happen.

Anywho -- I hope you had a good night. I'm tired. Almost didn't get up to go to the gym this morning. Did you go to the gym last night?

Posted by: Stacey

My Friends wedding- Jan. 17th--
the old fart I had to walk down the aile with-- lol

Posted by: Stacey

Thanks Babs-- I cannot Afford paying that!! NO WAY!!!

Posted by: Stacey

Stacey & Matt-- January 17, 2004

Posted by: Stacey

My Mom & Matt

Posted by: BabsieGirl

I know, it's expensive. She does a great job and most of the Pro Figure athletes go to her. Which is probably why she's that expensive to begin with.

At the Arnold, you can get a 2-piece for $50 and a 1-piece from $100 to $250.

When you purchase your suits, be sure they're posing suit and not the kind that straps across the mid section of your back. The tops must attach to the bottoms.

If you're on a tight budget...the next person I would recommend is: Cherry Bombs. Cherri is very nice and will work with you and your figure.

Posted by: Stacey

Thanks Babs soo much for the tips!!! I have been looking at posing suits online!

Yep-- sucks But I'm on a tight budget--and I have No charge card!!! Don't know how I will do this!!

He says he'd prefer to keep the non-flavored one cause he's got all these other sups he mixes together and some are already flavored.

Oh and thanks for the nice comment you made at the pregnancy forum
