Placed 2nd in my very first Bikini Competition
WORTH IT$7,000
So after years of ALWAYS wanting to compete in a fitness competition.. I entered in to my first Bikini comp on May 24th 2014. Worked my butt off and was AMAZED that I placed 2nd in my category! Just goes to show that hard work and dedication pays off... even after my surgery!

I am 5 days away from my very first Bikini Competition. This is something I have ALWAYS wanted to do but with that stretched tummy prior to surgery, there was just NO WAY I was going to do it. I have been training since mid January and even after surgery, I have lost 10lbs and I am down from 20% body fat to about 14 % body fat. You can still loose weight and your tummy will still look GREAT even after surgery! Posting pictures now :-)

So awesome to see pics after 2 years/losing even more weight! I'm not quite to my goal weight yet, and I've been nervous about doing it, even though I'm so ready. Thanks for posting!
The nervousness is always there, but the results are so worth it!
Wow you have amazing results
Thank you :-)
Thank you for posting! I'm 2 days from my surgery date and really nervous about being out of the box so long and losing everything I've worked so hard for! Just wondering, you said you waited a year before your first comp. I might lose my mind if I have to wait a year to compete. Could you have competed sooner?
Hi there and just breath! Its a long road, but so worth it. Gosh I can't remember why I waited.. probably because I needed to get my strength back up and just wanted to be ready. Im sure I could have competed a little sooner! Good luck!!!
Thank you for everything you've shared! It's hard for anyone to understand how hard we work, just to have this sack of stetch marked skin hanging over a csection scar and the ONLY option is surgery. I can't wait to shed the extra layer of clothes I wear under my workout clothes so no one sees my belly during pull ups or HsPU's! I know it's going to be a 10 step back and 1 step forward process, but I'm excited. I've been waiting to do this for 19 years and now I'm in the best shape of my life and ready!

Great review! You look awesome!
I LOVED finding this! I have had 4 kiddos and do CF and am finally researching TT info, tired of the baby pouch! I have been apprehensive about actually doing the surgery mostly because of what my CF friends would say or think about my absence and the actual surgery...as you know it is a tight knit community! I couldn't be gone that long without some sort of explanation. I am scheduling a consultation on Monday....deep breaths! Thank you again for posting your info and progress, very encouraging!
