Rage out and kill everyone of your competition!!!!!

j/k dear, Good luck at you.
 
Well, first of all, thanks so much everyone. I appreaciate it more than you know. And I am sorry to dissppoint you all, but I placed 3rd in a class of 5. I expected second place. To say I was upset and disappointed was an understatement. I am really having a hard time with it.

Anyway, I am leaving for home soon. I'll comment more tomorrow and post some pics.

BTW, my routine kicked ass- I nailed it and the crowd LOVED it :)
 
Dissapoint us? NO WAY!!!! you looked awesome and you did your best, what more could you ask of yourself? We are proud of you matter where you placed. You are a WINNER to all of us! Keep your chin up girl, email me when you get home.
 
You can only do your best, right? It IS a subjective sport. It's not like just lifting something. Be easy on yourself. Realize you are tired and worn out. The one expectation you made was giving it you all!
 
No way could you dissappoint us - you did all of the work to get ready for the show, and you gave it your all. Like future said - you can only do your best!
You got on stage looking great, you nailed your routine - and the crowd loved you... that is what counts!
Also, remember - it takes a whole lot of guts to get up there on stage and let yourself be judged like that - most of us couldn't even get that far... so nice work!
 
^ agreed


You're awesome IG....... you got more guts and moxy than 99% of the guys on these boards today.
I honored to say I know you.
 
Guys, you made me cry..lol..stop it!!!

I'm a little confused and frustrated right now....I was not in the best shape I could have been in. I thought I was, but I was deluding myself. I could have been better- leaner. I see that in some of the pics. I have very few of them though. The few my hubby got were the shits, and he never got any pics of my routine from the night show, so I may get a couple good ones from a friend of mine who took some.

Anyway, I got some feedback from a friend of mine who was a test judge. He told me that the 2nd place girl was a bit more muscular- we were very similar in a lot of things- her ab pose was a little better. It was not the place for us to be talking and I was upset, so I don't know if he told me everything or not. I am hoping to speak to the head judge. I'm pretty sure my legs are still a big issue.

Looks like I got a lot of work ahead of me this year. But some things are hard, if not impossible to change. I mean, HOW do you bring down your calves?? And who the hell has that problem anyway..lol..everyone else is trying to get theirs to grow for god sakes. I had my pic taken with Melvin Anthony- he was the guest poser. After I left he said to one of the guys- "that girl has CRAZY calves" ..lol..I'll post the pic with him when my buddy sends it to me.

So, there's my rant about the show :)

Thank you all SO MUCH. You don't understand what it means to me.
 
Glad to hear everything went ok.Sorry you didn't take 2nd place like you wanted to,but 3rd is great job. Awesome! Congrats!
 
hey...we can't control the judging...

but you looked great!!

congrats on your 3rd place, nothing to frown about!

you'll get em next time. :)

Conrats Irongirl!! I was bumping this thread not knowing you already posted your results...lol. I'm an idiot.

Third place is great. I know how upset you fell though, i got 2nd place at my last show and I was so expecting the first spot. Even the people in my own class told me i had it. lol. But you can only accept what you got and move on. Bodybuilding isnt a team sport. You got third place BUT you were the one up there receiving all of the glory. That is how i look at it, you are a winner no matter what. Not too many people can say that they are bodybuilders. But you can.......;)
 
NO REASON TO BE DISAPPOINTED! NONE. I can understand not getting the placing you thougt you deserved but what was said before is true. You got more guts and balls (pardon the term :) ) than 95% of the people that post.

So hats of to you!
 
Thanks guys!!! Much appreciated. I love you guys :) This is such a great place. Everyone is so supportive and helpful, and you get that much needed kick in the ass when you start feeling sorry for yourself..lol..so you're stuck with me now for sure ;)

A couple more pics I just got from my sister....
