    this is amazing! I have been wanting to get into fitness competitions too, but I think I lack the know how of how to get there. I am currently 147, 5'10" and I just had twins 4 months ago. It seems my body is hanging onto everything still. What is your tip to building muscle? Do you do a lot of heavy lifting? Can I even accomplish this at home, or is a gym a necessity?

    I'll be honest, I was expecting a little more out of you. The thighs are a bit under developed and the back of your upper arms could use some work. Maybe its the photography.....I'm gonna need to see a few more pictures to really give my honest opinion. You can post them or send them directy to me. Remember: I'm tough, but I'm fair.

    Is this real life???

    I never said I was "perfect" or had the best muscular build. When I started my transformation I had NEVER lifted weights. I started 2 months after my son was born at 190lbs and when I started I only ran and did DVD workouts. When I competed this year I had only been lifting weights for ONE YEAR, so with that being "tough, but fair" I suggest you know someones story and why may their muscles aren't as developed as you were expecting them to be. I don't need YOUR opinion because it's just that. . .an opinion. Next year when I compete I will have been lifting weights for 2 years only, so considering what I have accomplished in such a short amount of time I personally am VERY happy with my results.

    Hire a nutritionist and personal trainer. If you can only afford 1, go with a nutritionist.

    Good gravy, I can't believe anyone would even have the guts to say something negative. You look amazing. Man, I would die to look like that. Congrats on your loss and your muscles. I am working on my muscles and I will be glad when I can see them. LOL. Gotta lose the fat first. I can feel them. They are in there somewhere, I am just wanting to see them. You look amazing and I guess some people are just jealous. Sorry for the negative comments.

    I think this was supposed to be sarcasm and just came out all douchey. I don't know about the other ones since you have a look that I would think every woman would want. You look fantastic. Great job with the transformation and the new career!

    You do realize she is flexing darn near everything for her competition pose? Look at her profile picture and some of her other pictures and you'll see what I mean.

    OP, you look AWESOME!!! That is so inspiring.
