I'm an Accounting Informations Sys. Analyst. That should sum up what I do for work. I learned everything about weight training from my personal trainer of 2 years. Great person. The diet, well, that comes from playing around and making note of the changes made. Tweaking comes into play also. After a period of "tweaking" you'll eventually learn what works for you and what works against you. The unfortunate part about weight loss is our bodies are, (I think, don't quote the number) 60-80% water weight. If you're holding water, you're going to appear bigger than the norm. That's why it's important to drink a gallon of water a day. You'll find yourself in the bathroom MANY times. More than usual if you're not use to drinking the amount of water your body needs. When you don't drink enough water, your body begins to store it. Okay......I can go on and on.....Maybe I'll add something in my other thread about water loss, etc....

Nice backside

BabsieGirl · 10-02-2003, 03:24 PM

Thanks BF................My face was really really really really really dehydrated that day........I lost a lot of weight there first. Typically, I lose the good stuff....Boobs and glutes.

J'Bo · 10-07-2003, 06:28 PM

K where is everyone

BabsieGirl · 10-08-2003, 12:39 PM

Hey J'Bo. I will work on my journal. Been out this week cause I've been sick. I have Sinusitist and Bronchistist. I have asthma so Bronchitist is a given when it gets cold. I may have to give up these two comps coming up. Don't know. Still going to give it all I got though. There will be no work out or cardio this week. I'm taking it easy. Diet however remains the same. NO SUPPLEMENTS....I am not going to risk drug interactions. Anyway...Next week I'll post new diet and work outs.

J'Bo · 10-08-2003, 02:46 PM

well i hope that your feeling better soon

nikegurl · 10-09-2003, 02:50 PM

feel better! i have the same 2 things! just posted it in my journal. feeling a little better today. hope you do very soon.

BabsieGirl · 10-09-2003, 03:04 PM

Thanks ladies. I'm starting to feel a little better. Still congested. Tried going to the gym this morning. What a joke. This stinks BIG TIME. With taking this week off and eating actual food, I don't think I'm going to make the comps. We'll see.....after this week I only have 2 weeks to lose 8 pounds and 4%b/f. ha ha ha

BabsieGirl · 10-13-2003, 10:28 AM

Meal one: 5 Amino Acids
6oz. Protein drink (water)

****Cardio HIIT 30 min.

Meal two: 4 Amino Acids
4 Eggs whites
1 Yoke
Meal three: 4 Amino Acids
Tuna (one can)
Mayyonaise
Meal Four: 4 Amino Acids
6oz. Protein Drink (water)
Meal Five: Chicken Breast
Yam/Butter
Broc.

I'll post my work out this evening after I'm done. Don't know how long I'll last. Still congested and wheezing. We'll see. Wish me luck.

BabsieGirl · 10-13-2003, 10:32 AM

Whoops......todays meal will be different tomorrow and the rest of the week. I got lazy this morning.

Stay tuned.

BabsieGirl · 10-14-2003, 08:21 AM

Bad news. Not doing competition. This so makes me upset. If I seem bitchy, that's why. I really had my mind set on competing at least one more before the end of the year and I was doing really good until I got sick. I'm at friggin 15% b/f and there is no way I'm going to drop 5% in two weeks.

Oh well. I'm still doing this and getting ready for the Arnold. Need to look H O T when I'm there.

I will post this weeks diet later this afternoon.

My training: 10/13/03

Bench Press 80lbs. 5 sets 8-10 reps
I rested between sets.

Chest fly
70lbs. 6 sets 8-10 reps
I rested between sets

Side shoulder raises
20lbs. 5 sets 10 reps

Tri pull down
60lbs. 4 sets 10 reps
Rest between sets

After that I was tired. I'm still kinda run down.

naturaltan · 10-14-2003, 08:52 AM

You do flyes with 70lb dumbbells?

BabsieGirl · 10-14-2003, 11:18 AM

using the smith machine last night.

naturaltan · 10-14-2003, 11:27 AM

ahhh ... ok.

I was going to say, that is some serious weights you were tossing around.

J'Bo · 10-14-2003, 11:29 AM

smith machine for flyes hun

i am sorry to hear about the comps. any others coming up?
how about you come to Toronto and compete with me in May?
we would have a blast together

At my gym we have a smith machine for rear delts and chest fly.

Yeah, I know. I'm sooooo disappointed

I don't have any dates in mind. I haven't checked out the NPC Comps yet. I know ONBF has 10 scheduled for next year but he doesn't have them posted yet.

Hey...that sounds like a GRRRRREAT idea. Then I'd get to meet the hottie in person

How many are you doing next year?

I think my arms would snap off. When I do them I do them laying down. Sometimes at an incline also. I rarely use the smith machine, it's just last night, my first time back in the gym after a week and still congested and weak I didn't want to kill myself.

J'Bo · 10-14-2003, 12:08 PM

my stupid ass federation only has 1 friggin National competition and one World Qualifier that i could do. I am thinking about switching to NPC.

NPC has a lot more to offer. The only down fall is they claim it's purely natural. And, it's not. Most of my friends do NPC and they're not completely natural. They have a doctor that moderates their levels of roids and andro's so they don't lose their feminin look. I don't have the money to do all that. Plus, natural is best. At least I'll feel better knowing I didn't need the drug to boost me.

Speaking of this....I feel like I'm in a toss up. I want to do everything all natural but it's so hard to compete against the ones that aren't natural. Therefore, I get tempted. Majority of your Pro girls take andro, etc...... Did ya follow me?

This is off the subject....But how much does it cost to do a photo shoot and do you supply the outfits? If you supply the outfits, where would you go to get something like that?

Leslie · 10-14-2003, 12:53 PM

I hear you on NPC.
As for photoshoots- try geting TFP (time for prints) to start. This is where you dont get paid, but get professional quality prints and the photographer gets copies as well. He will post on his website or use for mag submissions. You can use these photos as promotion for yourself as well.

I got and continue to get TFP as well as paid offers(but most are for internet porn

from www.onemodelplace.com

Registration is free. Just throw a good pic up and you should have emails rolling in

You can of course opt to pay for a hoot, where only you get the pics, but a good shoot can cost anywhere from $500-$1500.

J'Bo · 10-14-2003, 12:58 PM

wow thanks for the link Leslie

as for the natural vs. unatural think its the same thing here however i do know of a couple pro's that are completely clean. Kary Odiatu is one of them. you and i can make it to the top without any help from the dr babe. It just might take longer.

I know I know...it's just so depressing that people have to cheat to get there.

yeah Leslie

Thanks for the link sister!!!! woo hooo...
I'm not trying to be nosey but, do you have someone that weeds out the good from the bad people who want to do photo shoots with ya? How much do they offer for shoots? Not the porn
sites.

Hey..Check out this link. http://www.morrisonproductions.net/

Well that is the tricky part. Sometimes a photographer will have comments by models listed under his profiles. You could contact those models and ask about him/her. But the bottomline is you will not really know. That is why it is best to bring someone along to the shoot. Paid shoots are hard to come by at first, as most prefer "experienced" models. Paid assignments can be anywhere from $50-$200+ an hour depending on the assignment.

BabsieGirl · 10-14-2003, 08:31 PM

If I were to bring someone along to the shoot, who should I pick? My dad is really good friends with a photgrapher. He actually took picture of our wedding. Thing is, I don't want my dad to see the kind of posing.......Not that I'd do something bad....here....here's an example...You know the black outfit you had a shoot in? Well...my dad would flip his wig..lol My dad could also take my pics since he has all the equipment.........ahhhh...I could scream. Ya know...I bet he'd let me use everything...thing is....who the heck would take my shots???

I'm going to look into this site you provided and see what it has to offer. I'm also going to ask my fathers friend if he and his wife could do this under strict confidentiality. I have no problem posing...I just don't want a bad rep. Where did you get your outfits? What should I wear? How do you do your make up? Light, medium....gosh,,,i hope not heave like competition..........That's clown make up.

Leslie -- you're such a sweetie......*muah* & kisses........Thanks a million.

Oh...almost forgot........how many photo's does the photographer take and how many do you get to pick?
