Competition Pics
Competition pics have finally arrived.
Sometimes when I look at images in retrospect, I realize that I was in better condition than I thought I was, but when I look at these, it just makes me cringe.
I look closer to 9% bodyfat than 8% bodyfat. Also look as if I am holding quite a bit of water - although I didn't carb load and used natural diuretics the week before the show. Definitely disagree with the Judges about my physique - the girl who won was a lot leaner and looked far better than I did (I look fat next to her!) You could barely see the definition in my back, my lower back was holding too much fat, my legs had cellulite on top of my lower body being too chunky, and my posing could definitely have used more practice as well. Yes, I am a harsh critic of myself, but I have to be. Interesting and embarrassing looking over the images.
You can be sure that if I compete again, I will make sure that I am at least in decent shape!
