THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!
This past weekend was amazing, I did finally WIN the NGA show that I have been competing in for the past 3 years...yea!!!!! Not only is this one of the best run shows I compete in, the promoters really do care about the competitors and making it about them...they also moved to a new facility this year that was clean and roomy. All in all I try to get other natural competitors to try this show out because I think it is one of the best out there.
That being said I can't really have wished for more this weekend. My boyfriend and good friend Gretchen were completely amazing and helped me get through the day...I forget how stressful show day can be constantly second guessing yourself. I did feel a bit flat going into the morning show and unfortunately we don't have any good stage shots from the morning (should have taken some backstage) but from people who have seen me compete before I heard that I was the best they have ever seen me look. I felt good just not as vascular as normal and like I said a bit flat.
Other then that I had a great time on stage, worked it a bit and enjoyed the work that I had put in. Going into the night show I did smooth out just a bit but the day had been LONG, woke up at 4:30 to start eating and didn't get on stage at night until 10 PM. Got through my routine without messing up, thankfully!! I was a bit nervous having oil on my and flinging a staff around but I think the audience appreciated it. The best part of my night was walking off stage, Pro-Card in hand to my boyfriend who was holding 48 roses...I mean how could I ask for more then that?
Ok, enough babbling...let me know if you have any questions-here are some pics. BTW I weighted in at 120, Friday evening with clothes on (cutoff was 122) so I probably was more like 118. Weighed myself this morning at 130, yikes!!! I am back 100% on my diet and hours and hours or cardio so hopefully I won't look prego onstage at the Jr. USA's
