Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness

you look amazing...and its your "cut from here"...I would see you at a mall and think , "Wow, she is gorgeous.."and probably wonder if you worked out and had to diet...lol

Good luck in your upcoming competition . . . you've built a strong foundation for cutting . . . keep us apprised of your progress!

I cannot even begin to put into words how incredible you look! wow!

7 weeks from competition. 136lbs.

Looking over the discussion as a whole (now at 5 pages) it is really interesting to see the way that issues of philosophy, depression, etc., are dealt with here --interwoven with both practical tips on bodybuilding and (understandable) exclamations of "Wow, you're amazingly beautiful!"

This is something I really think you wouldn't encounter on any other bodybuilding/fitness forum.

I've seen online philosophy discussion forums that were a lot less philosophical, too.

I was surprised, also, to see the brief comment from Mini-Forklift, that he has a history with anorexia, suicide, and so on.

Fundamentally, it's amazing that veganism provides the crossroads for these issues to come together (and for a bunch of athletic people to really share these kinds of intensely private thoughts).

24 days out from competition....

and the best one...

That's why I chimed in, I know how self destructive these kind of 'issues' are. I just wanted to speak out to PF as I felt I needed to. Looks like she is doing great at the moment

Yeah, that is (generally) the great thing about the internet: you can find someone to talk to who has some kind of shared history with you (most often on the other side of the world). It seems that most people actually prefer to do that with total strangers, rather than people they have to deal with in real life.

Conversely, I had a casual conversation with somebody online recently, and found out that she had been revived from a suicide attempt (in hospital, etc. etc.) more or less one day thereafter (she didn't discuss whatever her problems were with me --it was really a casual conversation). It is what it is.

about the pics:

Just did the Western Canadians bodybuilding show - Figure division. The judges did not think much of me...but here are some pics.
