first competition..pics

[deathbygym]

hey just wanted to thank everyone on the msg boards for all the help. i didnt place but my first competition was a blast. i loved every minute of it. i got my weight down to 198 lbs. and competed in the light heavy and novice division.

i have to say that i have never felt so tall and lanky in my entire life when i stepped on stage with everyone. i am def. going to pack on some mass for future shows. i also dont think i carbed back up enough in fear of spilling over. i didnt have a trainer or anything but these forums so i put things together and did what i had to. haha. i am prob going to do one more competition in 5 weeks to get a little more experience under my belt and then pack on weight for a while. thanks again to everyone and if anyone has any critiques just leave em...i am always open to opinions and suggestions.

Congrats on doing the show, you looked good for your first time. Like you said - now's the time to add some size for next time! I'd suggest starting your diet earlier next time, I think your conditioning would have been much better with another 6 weeks of prep time.

thanks alot...funny you should say that...i was originally just going to watch this show. and my plan was to do the delaware show on august 1 which would have been those extra 5-6 weeks like you said. however, i felt like i was way ahead of schedule with my diet so i decided to do this competition and get the experience. i am actually still thinking about doing the delaware show. 5 weeks out. my diet definitely went to **** right after the competition and all day sunday but i am back on it today in case i decide to do it.

haha..man i hit up olive garden after it...the amount of food i ate was ridiculous. i think i'm still digesting the bread sticks.

Thanks man. I wasn't sure how i was gonna look up there. my main goal was to just not look like i didnt belong. from the responses it seems that i at least accomplished that much. there was alot of competition there. did you end up placing?
