Hi all,
I just got home from my competition. Today was just an amazing and memorable day. One awesome awesome thing was that in finals when they presented me, they told the whole audience that I had lost over 100 lbs and this was my first time competing. I almost wanted to cry and I got a standing ovation. :icon_bigg . Then they presented the winners, I place 5th out of 6 girls which was a little shocker and lots and lots of people that I didn't even know booed in the audience. After the show, people came up to me and congratulated me on my success, said I looked absolutely amazing and that I was robbed. But what can I do? I got comments from the head California judge that said that I had too much muscle mass in my legs which created an imbalance in my upper body. I also think I got marked for the excess skin in my inner thighs which cannot be naturally fixed because of my huge weight loss. They also said that my shoulders need more rounding which to me means I need more muscle mass in my shoulders. They said my 2 piece suit was big at the bottom and my top covered my breasts too much. I thought my 2 piece it was beautiful! I loved my 2 piece suit. :)
I did not win which is always unfortunate to any competitor, but overall I had so much fun and met soooooo many great people. I was on a team with other girls known as a the "Oddo Angels". So it was so nice to have little group to hang with. It was all out first show so we all bonded.
I am posting the pics from pre-judging but these are from my friend. Thanks Danitza!!!!There is some comparison show I have so you can see who I was up against. I will get professional photos of the event later.
Thank you all for your support. :icon_bigg I have another show in 2 weeks. We shall see how that goes. I am happy with my package and what I presented. I worked my friggin ass off.
I ain't given up! I am a fighter!

Val,
you look absolutely amazing and your story is an inspiration! Do you mind telling more of it? When did you decide to commit to losing the weight and get into bodybuilding/figure? How did you start out? Did you have to diet down first or did you hit the weights right away? Did you hire a trainer first thing? Just curious. Keep up the great work!!!
