amazing on the pants!!! thats wonderful keep it up!! as for pull-ups
the only ones i got going on are size 3t-4t LOL and im tired of buying them!!
i would love to be able to do them as well!!! wimpy i am
^ LOL! please don’t confuse the less experienced (me) with pullups jokes. Luckily I figured it out before stupidly googling it.
You are killing the DLs mama! Great work all around on the training. You’ve got great momementum going 
haha, Masch…and thanks!!! 
I hope to keep it going, challenge or not…GRRRRR!
Robilyn- hah, thats funny! the best way to stop sucking at something is to DO MORE of whatever it is…for me thats squats, pull-ups and probably something else…OH! Deadlifts!
Way to go on the DLs! Form looks great, although you’re hyperextending a bit at the lockout. Sweet work!
you mean a little bit of hitching on that last rep…haha…heavy sonofabiotch!! or do you mean leaning too far back…like over-exaggerating humping the bar? lol
I mean it looks like you’re leaning farther back than you need to.
aww, ok…a habit I need to break! I think I just get really into it, and don’t even realize Im doing it!
soooo, I think I made up my mind(I think!) if I can figure it out, I may spend the rest of this year putting on some muscle and do my first bb’ing show next Spring…
I know I go back and forth about what I want, but this time I’m 95.6789% sure 
I think it would give me great focus…and talk about courage! Being able to step on that stage while the hubby was away serving our country, well, it makes me teary just thinking about it!
so, now what? Well, I will finish this challenge and figure out what my next step will be!

I do this exact thing…or did until CBear threatened to duct tape a broomstick to my back. Now I’m better at remembering not to over-lock-out.
Way to go on the deadlift PR! You’re making amazing progress in both strength & your physique, that’s really impressive!
And a bb-ing show sounds like a great goal! I’d start practicing the posing now, I found figure posing tough, and the poses for bb-ing are a whole other monster!
^ yes, I think so too! It feels good to have a clear goal in mind…but now I need a plan of execution. I’m just over a year out from the one I am thinking of doing…should be enough time!
Thanks Kim! now I know what you guys were talking about, haha!
Imma B cup!! WHAAAAAAT…had to buy a new sports bra…it’s official…I’m shrinking…and HOLY CRAP…the voting is already underway over at the other place!! 
Weigh in is tomorrow morning, along with new pics!

If you still haven’t registered to vote, feel free!! It sucks, though, cause lots of peeps are having trouble with that site… It’s going to be close this round!
Go MIM, its your birthday, you’re sexy and strong ← I was actually just singing that
So…I didn’t know you were planning on doing bb’ing - freaking awesome! I agree with you’re reasoning behind it and I think you’ll have a fantastic time and will rock that sh*t like no bodies business. More info on said comp please…like when, is it natural (i’m guessing yes), etc.
I really thought you were planning on doing a powerlifting meet? But I may be confounding info. No bother, you can do both! When I was talking to Jim the other day he said that bb’ers need to powerlift, and it helps powerlifters if they bb’ed. So, yeah…there’s some info you didn’t ask for. Lol!
I just checked out the polls! You’re winning!
its a tie now, eek!
ya, I’ve been wanting to do SOMETHING, and I kept getting stuck on what to do first…which is why you’ve probably seen me talk about strongman and PL’ing…I hadn’t really considered bb’ing FOR SURE, until I went to my first show back in NOV…but then I freaked myself out with the details and what not…
I chose to do bb’ing FIRST, cause it’s the one thing I am most chicken to do, haha…I say if you can step on stage in a iddy biddy posing suit and ROCK IT, then you can do ANYTHING!! I would like to try my hand at a PL’ing meet one day and heck even a strongman comp…while Im at it, a triathlon? nahhhhh…
But you only live once
And Anything is possible, right?

Nice job on the body fat loss… way to go! =D
finally managed to register only to find out I’m too late to vote- Heresy I say!
I tried earlier to register, but it didn’t like my email. 
i enjoy following your journey MIM. keep setting big goals and go for them.
i had issues trying to register as well.
fuuuuuuuuug…that really sucks that it’s so complicated to register…
Thanks Molly!!
N.- your not too late…voting is open through Saturday at least…
Even my hubby tried to register, but he couldn’t until he got a confirmation email to activate his account…only he never got the email…wtf.
Oh well, if Im out I’m out…hopefully if they ever do this challenge again they fix there damn site…or set it up differently, where EVERYONE gets to stay and the person with the most legit progress at the end wins…cause the way they have it now, is the person who gets the most people to vote wins…
