      Thank you for sharing your story! I've found it very inspirational. :) I'm in the beginning of my journey and am realizing that I don't have to be big forever. That's not my identity. I can be who I want with enough work and dedication, as you have proved here! :)

      Congratulation! :) you look amazing.
      What was your bf% when you were a "fluffy mom"? Did that classify you as "skinny fat"? I have a similar body type right now (not exactly the same tho).

      My bodyfat "before" was 37.9%. Contest bodyfat was 5.9%. My "normal" bodyfat now, just walking around being me, is around 12-13%. This is all done with caliper testing.

      I never really thought about whether or not I was "skinny fat". I just knew I was squishy, weak, and unhealthy. Some people can carry some extra bodyweight and still feel good physically...I was not one of those people. :)

      My "before" pics were taken Jan 7, 2012. Contest pics were March 15, 2014...so a little over 2 years total. I look more like the top several "after" pictures, and my profile pic now...you have to take into consideration that "contest-ready" means you're dehydrated and sodium-depleted. That level of leanness is not maintainable for more than a few days. ;)

      only about two years? that is amazing! you must have trained very hard.

      i was checking out the link you provided with your workout routines, it says that it is not really up to date. Has it changed much since you wrote that?

      Wow!!! You look amazing!!!

      Can I ask a dumb question though? Why is everyone so tanned in competition pics? Does tanning help show off the lines of muscle better or something? Just my opinion, of course, but I think people would look better if not so tanned...no offense intended...I just always wondered that. Thanks!

      No offense taken, and I happen to agree with you. ;) The tan is ridiculous!! Lol!! It is pretty much mandatory though, if you want a prayer of doing well. The tan serves a purpose...you can see muscle definition much more clearly with a dark tan, and it prevents your hard-earned definition from being washed out under extremely bright stage lights. I couldn't wait to shower it off though. ;)
