2007 BB.com Transformation Contest Blog

[bbcom_developer]

We're seeking motivated bloggers to participate in the official 2007 Bodybuilding.com/BodySpace Transformation Contest. We'll be picking 4 people to do 12-week transformations starting on Jan. 1, 2007 and ending on March 31, 2007. The 1st place winner will receive:

• $500 cash (yes, five hundred dollars!) (Well, technically it'll be a check, - but you can cash it!!)
  
• $500 worth of free USPlabs supplements!
  
• ...and more...

Similar to our 2006 Olympia group blog, the 4 contestants will need to blog each day about their progress, including not only text entries, but weekly progress pics. All 4 contestants must also maintain active and filled-out BodySpace accounts.

If you have what it takes to whip yourself into shape (and win $500 USD cash in the process!), sign up here in this thread to be considered. The four contestants will also be given front-page promotion on Bodybuilding.com, so you can anticipate some great participation from the BodySpace community, and considerable publicity from being featured.

The group blog will be here:

http://blog.bodybuilding.com/Transform2007

and the 4 finalists will be PM'd instructions on how to participate in the group blogging environment. Let the games begin! (The contest and the blogging starts on Jan 1, 2007. The final four contestants will be picked on December 22, 2006.)

Transformations will be judged by Bodybuilding.com staff, and rated on most dramatic results, based on before and after photos. The first and the last photos must include a legible newspaper in the photo, to verify dates. Progress pics (during the contest) do not need newspapers. For newspaper photo guidelines, please see additional clarification post below (by bbcom_developer).

Transformations need not be fat loss only, they can also be mass gain transformations. Bodybuilding.com reserves the right to further define the rules of this contest over the next few weeks up until the contest starts on 1/1/2007.

i did a natural show here in KC back in 2000, got 3rd in novice. But since then i have had so many surgeries and bad luck i put on alot of weight. Ballooned up to 230ish at one point. I would love to compete again one day but rather do a competition like this instead. Not pressure to be on stage in my underware. lol

[Mr.Mom]

I'm in.....

I was injured two years ago and really fell out of shape during a long process of trying to avoid surgery.....

I've decided to use my past p/t experience to make a return to respectable condition starting January 1 '07......

I figure if I'm gonna have the aches and pains anyway I should at least try to look good.....

In 12 weeks I should be down at least 40lbs counting the initial drop....

Saying that.... my work-outs are not going to be 'hardcore' by most peoples standards....I'm going to be working around a badly herniated disc that 'requires' fusion surgery that I refuse to have right now.....

My plan is a very strick diet....relying on muscle memory to gain back calorie burning muscle....and believe it or not a Bowflex....yep....as bad a rap as they seem to get here that will be my core peice of equipment because I won't have to load my leg press etc with plates, thus saving my back for the work-outs.....

So.....this will not only be a test of man...well......Mr.Mom.....but a test of machine.....the Bowflex......

Thanks for the chance at this.....

I'd like to be considered! I'm hitting the cardio hard starting in January!

[fates_child03]

I would love the chance to be in this competition.

[Blitzzz]

I would like to sign up, Im already doing the body for life challenge.

[bizzlewood]

Count me in

[PaLftr]

This is perfect, as I had already set a goal deadline of May 1st. This ties right in with that.

Anyway, the lowdown on myself; I'm 17, and have been transforming myself since January 2006.
I started at the last official weight of 307lbs, and have currently worked my way down to a steady 220lbs. [87lbs weightloss]

My new goal, which I started working on this week, is to lose another 40lbs by May 1st, in order to be ripped [for the first time] and have an awesome summer [for the first time. lol]

That'll bring my weightloss total to almost 130lbs, all at age 17.

I'd love to be included in this process.

[blinkwatt]

I would like to join.

[surfgod777]

This is something that I would like to be considered for. I have been off my program for the last month, and it shows. Perfect motivation for finally trying to get my 6-pack!

[King Alex]

im 16, turning 17 just before the contest starts on dec. 20, i currently weigh 138 i gained ten pounds in the last two weeks putting an inch on my thighs already, i currently update my bodyspace everyday. It would be great to participate in this contest im trying to gain as much muscle as i can for football next season. I started lifting back in feb. 06' my story is in my bodyspace along with everything else. I think ill win because i feel i know how to really put some good mass on without gaining much fat, and i believe that i can cut my fat really fast. The competition works perfect for me also because it ends before track season starts. consider me please

[Fuerza_M]

My vote is for little chick,
