So foggy, so I know I am officially in Ultra Blond mode.

 

Food so far:

coffee

Protein Shake w/ 1/2 Tablespoon Natty PB, green tea extract, an orange

 

OK, just realized I don't have anything that actually fits for the fitness model round. Have to submit two photos (think I have that covered) do a bikini round and a fitness wear round. ALL of my fitness wear is TOO big for me even the size XS's. So will be hunting online to find something to do it in.

 

ALSO, out of Pro Tan, ummmm...... major problem, I am required to be painted, so need to get that in route ASAP as well.

 

Still deciding on bikini, but since I keep getting the barbie comments, I have one that is hot pink (barbie pink) so may just play right into the image and use that one for bikin round.

Meals same as yesterday. Really feeling the effects of completing common tasks now.

 

Got my tan and fitness wear ordered and in route. Just got off tread, 30 min interval training. Got quite a glow going. Gonna hit the shower, then off to the gym to do abs, lower back, 30min steady elliptical and posing and T-walks when the aerobics room opens up at 6:30.

 

Then of course off to hit the outdoor bar for my after training Rum and Diet I'm cooped up inside all day so feel like at least I am getting outside even a little bit.

 

Here's another from the last shoot:

Funny to me to see the old shoot since I am 15lbs lighter and more toned then I was when I did it.

Off now to the gym (stayed and used mine today) need to get into the aerobics room to practice my routine. Had to mix my own music (90 sec) or I have to use the house music, and lord knows what that would have been. Went with the salt & peppa push it beat, with barbie girl as the main ...... hope that is fitting for what I am doing!

 

OK off to pose in my stage shows (I have to wonder what the other members are thinking when I walk out in those, )

OK off to pose in my stage shows (I have to wonder what the other members are thinking when I walk out in those, )

They're thinking : "Damn, that's one GREAT LOOKING WOMAN! Wish I had that much discipline! "

I hope that's it!

 

 

Wow my body is ready taking a pounding this round! I could NOT do my 1 hour of cardio. I kept getting the shakes and my leg spasming (remember hospital stay before, that's how it started) also the muscles in my lower leg and foot lock totally. So I am still on muscle relaxants, not fond of taking them so always wait until my symptoms are heavy. I'm putting so much pressure on my body to hit comp right now that they are giving me grief.

 

OK anyway, 30 min interval training on tread. abs (upper and lower) went to gym to do another 30 on elliptical, but just felt awful. So went directly into aerobics room to posing routine. When I was done (about an hour later) I sat against the wall just trying not to pass out. So I guess I got my cardio in anyway..... the posing routines are work anyway.

 

OK, go my music solved, for those who want to know here is one (my son mixed it for me, who got non of his talent from his mother). The lead up on this if you have not been following as I got the nick name "Malibu Barbie" after the last comp so playing right into that since the publishers will be there, this one is for the fitness round. Which I have to hit a few BBing poses in:

http://www.denisenicole.com/Mom's_Barbie_Girl_Project.wav

 

Started to apply a coat of tan (mouse) last eve. This consists of standing totally nude for someone to put a coat of this stuff from top to bottom and you stand around another hour waiting for it to dry, checking to make sure you don't need to rub in any spots. (this is where if any other BBer's have a better way they should pipe in here)

 

Tonight cardio (if I can handle it): Back and Biceps.

 

My prints which are REQUIRED for the fitness model round won't be here in time, so I was luck enough to find a place to do it today.

 

My suit which I did not have time to alter, I am altering myself ..... heaven help us all as I am not the best seamstress.

 

Photo for today:

The Good: Excited to Leave for show

The Bad: Still altering suits and need prints

The Ugly: My own body is fighting this last week, and not co-operating

Best of luck SeaSiren! Have a great time and make the most of the opportunity!

 

As far as tanning....yeah, I'm the same way. 100% nude, or maybe wearing some bikini briefs depending on who is helping me. Tanning is one of the most annoying things about competing, but it's all part of the game.

 

Have an awesome time. I look forward to hearing about it!

Hey guys! Back and EXHAUSTED! As always had a wonderful time. Love the stage and BBing community! New photo album up from last comp. Got trophies in every division. Still have runway model legs, so hurt me for the comp. But scored perfect in photo end of it for (model).... That means I achieved the highest scores for my photos but my legs hurt me for part 2 and 3 of the scoring. Results, 3rd figure model, 4th masters, 5th open! Very very happy ...... the legs will come in time, it takes months even up to a year to bring them up but I'll still compete every month knowing that! I'm getting experience and LOVE being on stage!!!!!

 

xx,

Denise Nicole

New leg routine in place and it is pretty intense, so well see how I make out with it. Pushing leg day to Friday's, Sat & Sun become totally recover days, will eat clean those days but no w/o (unless I go freediving or kayaking this weekend).

 

Have decided to pass on the next show and hit the one at the end of the month. Girl's start school on Tuesday, and if I have to diet for comp I'll be out of it and temper mental a few days for their first couple weeks of school. They need my full "brain" during this time. 1 of my girls is transferring from the other county (since the incident). And the other 2 are transitioning from being home schooled. All girls have been active in the community events, sports, neighbor kid's etc. So they know kid's there, just a big change.

 

Trying to keep myself out of trouble 'tis very hard ya know, lol

 

Daughter's B-Day dinner was great I love spending time with her ..... my baby's growing up

 

The Good: I have a plan!

The Bad: Still recovering from last comp (putting back on weight)

The Ugly: Starting to get a bit worried regarding the financial aspect of having no help raising the children .... I have no family to fall back on ... I have been homeless and hungry before. By God the will never happen again. So praying to whomever that my business continues to be profitable.

dont know what the "Incident" is that your daughter had, but I am sorry she had it.

 

Sorry to hear that the family and the father are not helpful with the children.

 

Glad that you are resting your body and you have a plan for your legs.

 

Hope things work out for you in the business.

 

really like that music your son put together for you .

She was going to school in the neighboring county. When I moved here I tried to battle for res. custody to have her moved here, since the school's were better. Was successful in moving my son, since he and his father had a literal knock down blow out, and my son won't have anything to do with him since. But the judge didn't want to move her out of her "comfort" and friends, even though she wanted to. Anyway fast forward to now 3 years later. He tells her to get the f out and he never wants to see her again. Tells me that as far as he is concerned he has not children and don't expect a dime. Anyway she is here and she is safe, and loves this area. Our schools are higher rated and more affluent where I am. And no I won't seek a dime from him. I think we have all had enough and no need to keep after any more, he's better totally out of the picture.

 

My son did a great job, I'm so proud of him. He begins college this year He turns 17 in a couple weeks ..... wow time flies!

 

Yesterday:

20 min cardio, interval training on incline tread. Felt like I needed a cardio, but kept it down to 20 min. Weight is finally starting to recover this round. Weighed in at 110 this AM.

 

Back and Biceps this afternoon after work.

 

Actually went out last eve (only for a couple hours) with a Gentleman I had seen a couple of times. Not generally what I go for, but that was kind of the point since I can't seem to get it right. This one was nice, a gentleman, a bit shy, financially stable and we are the same age (in around). So I went out with "Mr. Nice Guy" in stead of the type "A"'s who have been giving me grief. And I'm afraid we just aren't hitting it off well. He's sweet, but is also very honest. He's seeing a couple of ladies. They may not have the looks, but I have the divorces and children (baggage) and he said as much about "coming from 2 diff places". I understand where his coming from, re his point of view, just a shame that I am getting penalized for my past. Anyway, then he starts to come on to me ..... not real strong, but I was think yeah right buddy. You just tell me we're coming from 2 diff worlds and you want what??? So much for the not my type either!

 

The Good: I still hanging on

The Bad: Last Eve was disappointing

The Ugly: I'm still hanging on which mean, I'm waiting for "the next thing" to come at me

Sorry he still tried ot put the moves on you after he told inferred that you were out of the running.

Rethinking the next show. Girls Dad said he would be more than happy to stay the full weekend here with them. That's the last week he'll be here he's moving permanently. He would spend some final quiet time with them since he won't be focused on me (I'd be away for comp.)

 

Weight plummeting again (yes, still eating heavier) 104 today ..... and I was fully clothed.

 

Smoke filled my house this morning , yep washing machine motor burnt up! Yet one more thing because God still hates me.....

 

The Good: I woke up again this morning

The Bad: washer went up

The Ugly: My house is wrecked since I am not here much the girls have just gone wild. So they will spend their entire day cleaning while I try to get a repair guy out on this weekend holiday (yeah , that'll happen).

Hey SeaSiren,

 

You are quite an inspiration! Your photos are amazing! Wow - what legs! They really are Barbie legs. How tall are you?

 

I admire your determination to be healthy and active and support your kids. I have 2 children that I am raising on my own but they do see their dad every other weekend. He feeds them junk food and puts them in front of the TV (isn't there a law against that?) Anyway, I do what I can to educate them on health and fitness and they are following suit (sorry, got a little side tracked there!).

 

Anyway, my utmost respect to you, Girl. You are awesome!

 

The very best to you that positive opportunities come your way.

Thank-you! I'm only 5'5" (and 104 right now) but I have long legs for my height. I sat a horse before I could walk and trained horses for years. I knew about the leg length because that's why I would win my equitation classes when I competed in the horse shows. The judges always commented on my leg length. However, thus I have a short torso, it my not look it, which is why I concentrate on sculpting certain areas to hide the short torso and also my suit choice. The legs have been a problem, since I have stressed them all my life it takes a lot to stress them out to make them respond. That and the only pair of flat shoes I own are my workout shoes. I stay in heels all day so with shoes I am 5'9"!

No worries! I didn't take it like that at all. I just still feel "weird" when someone says look good.

SeaSiren, I think you're great! And.....I was looking back through all of the Introductions over the entire history of this website and I think your's was #3 all-time, even before my intro. So you've been here from the beginning and I love having you here.

 

Now we have lots of other competitive vegan athletes in the bodybuilding/fitness/figure industries and I believe there are more in figure than anything else at the moment! Thanks for helping lead the pack!

 

All the best!

Thank-you Robert! You have always been very positive and supportive. (Not to mention in awesome shape )

 

 

 

Busy Day set up for today. Had a rough one yesterday, the whole dizzy numbness thing was back and I had a tough time just walking etc. Luckily it went away. Stress has a bit to do with it I am sure. My son is taking the divorce badly and when I was trying to run around and clean and give direction to the girls on what they needed to do "chore wise" since all the repairmen were coming for various things (the house was a mess from my ex moving out and my daughter moving in, plus leaving and returning from comps and not being home much). He promptly unloaded on me curse words and all. Which got him a very calm "get out of this house, that conduct won't be tolerated here, you do not speak to me that way". So after a more than usual stressful morning of preparing the house plus all the smoke from the washer then him coming at me. My "thing" had kicked in full blown by the time I hit work.

 

Anyway, was better but weak by days end to pushed that new intense leg day to today. So as soon as I get enough coffee in me, 20 min cardio, than off to nail salon, tanning, clothes shopping for daughters for school (Just spend $450 on school supplies, that is insane!). Then that intense leg day with a few other errands thrown in, and have to at some point stop by the retail center, to bring one of my people up to date.

 

Gotta love my "days off". Get to go to that deck party tomorrow with "new guy". Like I said I am driving myself so I can leave if he is just terrible. "old Guy" keeps sending me friendly texts. It's interesting that he is, I'm being a bit vague to him. Perhaps he's still trying to "get his head around" my past. Either way I would consider (not sure would have to think about it more) seeing him again, but he should not expect anything but company, lol

 

Have a great weekend Everyone! It's a holiday weekend here, so traffic will be a bear!

Made it to the gym in time for leg day. Have to do it the gym since my new routine incorporates super sets on some of the machines. Most of the exercises are til failure. I barely walked out and am feeling it today! About darn near time!

 

Now for those of you following the saga which I call my life. Guy #2 (supposed to go to deck party today with). Texts me out of the blue yesterday ... "I miss you too" ..... ah hello? So I text him back "I don't think that was intended for me" Several seconds later "oh, it was a joke". Yeah right. Somebody is a player and just told one of the women he is playing that he misses her, which indicates that she is emotionally attached. I think NOT! Anyway I cancelled, he is NOT happy about it. I don't think anyone has dared cancelled on Mr Player before.

 

Cardio today as soon as I get motivated .... it will be 20 min on tread intervals. (and my legs are screaming, lol)
