Those are great numbers! I would like my stats to look like that:big_smile: You've obviously worked very hard...Great Job!

Would you say your success is due to mainly exercise, mainly diet or a good combination of both?

Keep it up, Joy - You will look so awesome by the time the show rolls around - you are already where you need to be to start your pre-comp diet, at 14.*%. You should be able to come in really lean!

Thanks so much everyone, It takes alot of dedication, my family says I am addicted and/or obsessed, I guess there are worse things that I could be addicted to so I take it as a compliment.
Fly - I would say a combination of both diet and lifting weights, but once I fine tuned my diet I really started to see the bodyfat disappear.
Asimmer - Shouldn't I try to get down to like 12% by January?

You will be fine starting at 14% 3 months out. If you get lower before then, that is okay, too.

jmknipple - maybe you could paste an example of your diet here so the ladies can see what you are doing (and how much food you actually eat:)) to drop bodyfat.

Thanks for posting that, i think it is very helpful to see it printed out. I've even cut and pasted it and may give it a try in the New Year.

How about a peak at your workout routine as well.

Amy - How low were you on comp day?
I am curious to see how low I will be at 125lbs, I am afraid I will look sickly, hope not, but then again in clothes everyone will just think I am anorexic or something, then on stage it will be different i have been told..

Yeah, you look a lot bigger flexing up on stage, youare pretty petite in person.

I think I was 9 percent, but we didn't comp (not thinking, I guess). I want to come in leaner this year, I have been seeing a lot of claims of 5-6%, so we will see. I didn't think women went that low.

Are you feeling like the low bodyfat is screwing up your hormones at all?

HOLY COW!!! Well so much for wanting to lose 30 lbs in 4 months. That is so awsome!!! I guess my goal was out of reach? But it lets me know that it is tuly possible to lose the body fat. BTW is there a way to measure body fat at home, as I don't have a gym membership.

jmknippel... Girl you give me a lot of hope that this flabby chick can get where I want to be. My diet isn't as strict, just changing carb cravings into veggie cravings and snacking on healthy cold cereal dry. I may have to do some more diet changing. But congradulations!! you do give us newbies some thing to grasp on to. Thank you!:)

Definitely an inspiration to me...our stats are very close, except my bodyfat is much higher. I'm just going to have to see how low I can go. I'm using you as my guage. Of course, I'm not training for competition so I don't expect to match you at any point, but it is inspiring to see what someone can do when they really go all out.
