Any female body builders ?

Curvygirly22

I know my body is no way near close or remotely near a figure competitor...
But I recently ran into a girl in my gym who is around my same height and weight and she hired a coach and told me she is training for her first figure competition in November . I have always been interested in it, I read every oxygen magazine and am constantly on bodybuilding.com
I am just wondering if any ladies on here have competed and any advice? I'd love to set it as a goal I just wouldn't know how far in advance to do so. I would love to hear your experience or Any advice or even workout together if your in the ny area.
Thanks everyone
