Vinny congrats on turning pro.  Definately an inspirtation to push on year after year until you reached your goal.  Must have felt like a ton of bricks falling off of you.  Good luck with the upcoming contest season!

Vinny care to share what your eating right now in the offseason? And are u staying lean or letting  yourself "go" a little bit?

HEY vin care to share what u went through back some time ago with eating disorder.was that caused from the perception people had from u being vinny the bber all time?that they look over ur shoulder and say are u really suppossed to eat that?and were they bugging u offseason mostly,and how did u get to the point not to let it bother u any more.and learn that u could be a little human and not always as people see in magazines or on stage 24/7.

yeah no problem.

for a long time i did my own thing, i was able to eat what ever i wanted in the offseason.

nobody paid much attention to me even after winning a bunch of local/regional shows, and even the jr usa.

but after my win in the USA, it was like the spot light was on me all the time...when i went to my normal offseason eating, too many people paid way too much attention to what i ate.
 
all of a sudden i had a rep as someone who did not eat well, someone who cheated all the time.
and all i was doing was what i have always done.

fast forward to 94 , and it carried over. what did you eat today, how much did you eat...it was stressing me out.

it wasn't fun anymore...so i'd binge and throw up for 2 years.

after getting rid of all the "negative" people around me, i took off all of 96...regrouped, and came back in 97 winning my class in the jr nationals, 10th in the usa, and 4th in the nationals.

and thats the story....boring, i know....lol
