I know all of you have been wanting to know how my day went for the competition. So far you know I have had some Tanning Issues, Followed by a great brunch. But what happened show day?
Well First I couldn’t sleep. Work up with thumb prints all over my chest because I was not told to sleep with socks on my hands! I looked a bit diseased but was able to get it touched up before I headed out on to the stage.
And of course, That's me, eating my rice cake smeared with PB and Jelly. Can I tell you it was the most wonderful thing I had ever eaten. I mean I haven't touched PB or Jam in a long time and the two together, well. HEAVEN! I am having a craving for them right now.
Once I had some energy, it was time to get into suit number one for SAF. I honestly felt good in the morning. I felt my body looked good and I was ready to rock it. This is a photo of me back stage just practicing my stage presence. I have to say though, I am not sure if SAF is for me. While I was hitting poses, I felt perhapsit was too "flirty" for me and I not about the physique but about throwing your booty around. And I can't say that that's my style.
IDFA however was more my style. I trully enjoyed just getting out there, hitting your front, side, back poses. I felt that it represented more the physique (particularly in the Figure category). However, one thing that took me by surprise was Aunt Flo. Yup she made an appearance so by the night show, I felt bloated, heavy and just tired. Word of advice, don't compete in two shoes in one day. I just was exhausted and depleted!
Although I didn't place (I have a feeling I came in last because I am still carrying a lot of fat comparatively to other women who competed) its ok. I feel I won in my books. Getting up on stage, doing something out of my comfort zone and letting a select few judge me on my body, well…I think I rocked it regardless!
Have you done something out of your comfort zone lately?
YOU LOOK AMAZING IN BOTH SUITS!! I love the costumes!! and I think it takes so much courage to be able to get up on that stage and have people judge you on your physique. I am SO proud of you! you did an amazing job! and DEFINITELY won in my books ;) LOVE YOU!
ReplyDeleteXOXO
wow! amazing--people judging me on my body is probably my worst fear ever! you rock!
ReplyDeletethis weekend, i am selling my vintage at a fair. this is a little out of my comfort zone...selling behind the computer is so much easier. no one is analyzing and judging your goods right in front of you! my shop is my baby so this is scary! but not as scary as being judged in a swim suit!
You look absolutely terrific and congratulations on making it up on-stage! Thank you for taking us on your journey.
ReplyDeletePS: The red bikini top could totally be adapted into a Wonder Woman costume!

ReplyDeleteYay, Nisara!! You look amazing! Love your suits! Wasn't that PB&J the best? I am so proud of you. You did a freaking figure competition...or TWO! There are not that many people that can say that. Enjoy your treats and rest up!

ReplyDeleteSweets!!! did you get my email??
ReplyDeleteJeez you look stunning!!! I can't get enough of your posts!! from a competitors stand point - its doesnt matter where you place. You set a goal and achieved it and for that YOU ROCK and you killed IT!! xoxoxo
You look AMAZING! I mean what a body!!! And I'm glad the tan evened itself out- I've woken up with strange marks too but it all sorts itself out in the end. I am so proud of you- you did something not many people could do and you went for it. Now go ahead and eat some Nutella!
ReplyDeleteDaaaayuuum, girl. I had no idea that you had such a bangin' body. Who cares if you didn't win? You accomplished something huge in your life! Besides, you could always beat up the winners with those guns you have.

You look amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely have not done anything nearly this far out of my comfort zone lately. It doesn't matter how you placed, you put so much of yourself into this competition and achieved so many of your personal goals, you absolutely have won. Congratulations. What are your plans now? Will you be continuing with figure competitions, or crossing this experience off your bucket list?
ReplyDeletexox,
Cee
I agree with you totally - you have more guts than anyone else (me including) by getting up on a stage and let others judge your body. Well done - you deserve a medal for that.
ReplyDeleteOMG! You look beautiful! Super Duper proud of you. So few people do what we do and YOU did it! I am totally impressed with your results. GREAT JOB!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Honestly it put me out of my comfort zone more than you know. I did it to prove to myself that I can do anything I put my mind to
ReplyDeleteHonestly I don't know! I kind of have the itch to do it again, but I think for now I am going to focus on a healthy active lifestyle. and hopefully some new challenges :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your support it honeslty has helped me get through.
Aww thank you thank you thank you!
ReplyDeleteYou have been apart of the journey! Oh my goodness I couldn't have done it with you and i am not just saying that. I sent you tweets, you provided me with encouragement. this is just as much yours as it is mine. thank you!
