Todays meals will be posted until I can come up with a "doable" diet plan for 6 weeks. At the moment I'm working with a Pro-Figure athlete in helping me put something in place. She knows my goals ect.....After the meal plan is put into place, it may change IF my doctor says it's not good. On the 25th, my gyno will know everything I'm tossing into my mouth including, supplements. I don't want this stuff back firing at me.

I'll be eating close to 6 meals daily. Right now, nothing is set in stone hon. I'm waiting on my diet as we speak. I'll call her later on. She's out of state in all.

Babsie...is that similar to a B.I. diet?

Which figure person will you be working with? I know your excited and such to find out how things will be going! Just promise us you will not push yourself harder than you should! Your health comes first..k?

JODIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! How was your meeting today? Missed you.

Some of the stuff on there is. Pretty close though. That's just to hold me over until everything is finalized.

Remember the thread I started about you "keeping" contest pics from us? Then we got to talking about one of the girls, "Angie" who's pics were also up in that site. We talked about how her face looked really dried out during her photo shoot, and how she turned pro either this year or last ...etc...? Anyway....it's her nutritionist and, Angie making my diet for me. It'll be a long process to follow in order to make the right changes. They don't want me to hit the weights yet. They want me to basically diet and do cardio 3 times a week. I'll actually meet with the two of them soon.

For minds sake, I'm thinking of starting the weights next week. NOT hitting it hard. Basically hitting them like a TOTAL beginner would.

You're absolutely correct. My health does come first and if things get worse with me before the hysterectomy, then the comp will have to wait until all is well. The comp is strictly set up as a challenge. It would be nice to do, yes, but not nice enough to sacrifice my health. LOL.......listen to me....like dieting down for a comp is healthy..... I just know I really want this. It's soooo hard watching you all get ready for comps, when I should be doing it also, but I cannot. I've been away from the weights for sooo long and I miss it. I really really miss it Before too long, I'm going to have a HUGE scar from hip to hip.........and what judge is going to say I look great in a bikini? None! I just feel this is my last chance to stand on stage and feel good about my appearance. You know?

I have heard really good things about Angie. I hear she is a real sweetheart! Now Roger....he seems like he would be one tough cookie to have as an advisor. It's no wonder Angie always looks great. You'll be in good hands (imo).

Your meds may have you holding alot of water weight. Once the diet kicks in, that will seem like its falling off. Just stay positive and follow the advice your giving. Just remember...opinions are like azzholes..everyone has one! So stick to the ones you know!

Great advice Jodie!!!!

Heya Babs~ I totally understand where your coming from... Now I wish a lot that I was still doing the comp~Butterfly was right, it may take me A long, long time to get pregnant.

Your mind is in the right place though, putting your health first!!

Love ya!!

Hi Babs!

I promise I won't be a stranger!!! I am not sure when exactly I will be on stage again but, like you, I also have the "itch" to diet down and get ready just like everyone on here. We got 7" snow in the past day and more is coming on Friday - I know it makes it that much more difficult to think spring is right around the corner.

I totally agree with you about having rewards built into your program. Is this what you did to lose 40 lbs for your last comp? My goal is to wear a certain outfit (jeans that are too small and a midriff baring top) to go see my pals compete on April 24th.

If you are in Ohio at least you are in the home of a lot of great fitness and figure competitors - Jenny H, Adela, etc. Good luck with your new trainer

We are both gonna rock the house this fall! The world better prepare!!!

Roger is who I initally went through. I had to show him diet plans I used in the past, training, pics....the works before he'd even considered training me. He ended up giving me the OK on Tuesday - I had been talking to him for a couple weeks prior. He wants me to hook up with Angie SOON. It's just me finding time to use another office phone so people here don't hear what I'm talking about. I may go and call her now.

I'm thinking what you're thinking also. Meds having me hold water!!! I had my BF taken last night HOLY SHIA******** I about started bawling.....I called my doctor and left a msg for him to call me........He needs to find a way to get rid of all this CRAP!!

AWWWW......You're too kind for words!!!! I wuv you too

You can still try to do a comp and get preg at the same time. Just if you end up getting pregnant first, you'll need to switch your diet up a bit, scratch the comp and plan for it after your pregnancy. There was a girl I competed against last year. Her baby was 6 MONTHS OLD!!!!!! and she LOOKED GREAT!!!!!!! She trained & dieted for 6 months and made it. Smooth sailing for her.!!! She breast feed too.

I just had a BIG post for you!!! and I lost it!

I'll make it short and sweet cause I have to get back to work...Dang it!!!

Isn't it amazing how people motivate each other? It's great!

Yep, snow is still falling here. Don't know exactly how much has fallen. All I know is, I want it to stop. Last week we were spoiled with sunny 70 degree weather, then this week...here comes the snow...

I had rewards set in my program for competition however, SLOWLY the rewards were dropping off as comp time got closer! My reward then became mental. What I mean by that is, I wanted to start thinking, "This is all practice, this is all practice....If I don't place in the top 5, I made mass changes!" And I did make mass changes and I was proud of them. So, my reward became, "Feeling good about ME and PROUD of the changes/gains I made and letting that shine through for the judges to see! And, it worked!!!!

Girl, you're going to look hot, April 24th . Sounds like a rewarding outfit you have in mind. You're gonna make it no doubt

Yep, good ol'Ohio!! Home of the Figure/Fitness and BBing Competitions. People take this stuff pretty serious here. Not that they don't anywhere eles. Just the crowd and groups, etc...are out of control. I plan to attend the Mike Francois Classic May 22nd. Last year he had 150 Figure competitors! 150!!! Not including Fitness and BBers. This is just one of the many comps we have here in Ohio! I'll take pictures there and post them. Some of the girls look like they just woke up one day and decided they were going to compete, THAT MORNING!!! while others looked trained, etc.....It's was quite interesting to see.

I hope to make the Mike Davies "All Ohio Comp" He throws a great comp show!!! The absolute best guest posers!
