  1. I did it! I finally ordered my dress from BabyOnline. Sunny has been so great to work with and very responsive. I washing to order the Inbal dress but after trying on a similar dress - it's not the right style for me... I need more support in the front due to having a large chest. I found a Pnina custom dress I LOVED so I'm jumping the gun and ordering it. 400 400 What do you think?!?! I'm actually really excited. Instead of pinks I requested shades of ivory & creams.

  2. Hi MrsSHoreytobe Thanks for the reply!  I actually already have my dress, and it is requiring me to wear a bra (i lost all my tatas these last couple of months working out). But I am not finding any good lowback or backless bras online. Just wasnt sure since many girls on here have backless dresses, if they knew of a good backless bra brand. 
    I'm planning on doing this bra For my dress... http://www.amazon.com/Backless-Shaper-Padded-Convertible-Straps/dp/B002AM3H1A/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_0_0 I like it bc it helps covers the tummy & the straps are convertible to go with any neck line. There are many options out there ... The amazon page should provide addition suggestions for backless bras :)
  3. So.... my Babyonline order has shipped out and today I received pictures of what to expect!!!! As I mentioned in my previous post, I ordered 3 dresses from them. Just an FYI: I did have to pester them A LOT to send me photos. Before I post the pics, let me say that overall their work is good but as far as making accurate replicas is concerned....not so much. The first 2 dresses I am semi-okay with, also with the hopes that my petticoat/crinoline will shape them properly. The 3rd dress was my big risky Vera Hayley knockoff and the only one I truly hoped would turn out the best of all 3. All dresses were ordered in ivory and corset back. Also all dresses were made to be drop waist because mermaid shapes do not work for me, nor does puffiness from the waist. I've got me a short torso :(
    I think dresses look great! From my dress shopping experience, I've discovered nothing looks as good on a hanger as it does on the body with the full skirt underneath on. I have a feeling you'll be pleasantly surprised by the dresses when you put them on with everything. :)

    CAN WE SAY GORGEOUS!!! You look A-MAZE-ING in that dress! Fits your body so well!!! Did you go with Jasmines? I can't remember!!! So many messages on the board! Lol!!!
    400400here is my dress girls!!
    SQUEEEEEEE!!!! It looks great! :)
  4. Oh no doubt! Which is why I wanted to be clear that I was being super short in my response. Maintaining muscle whilst performing copious cardiovasc work is most definitely doable, but most women don't eat to maintain the fruits of their labor, which means they end up whithering away! 
    Definitely! After sending that, I realized I may have come off brash, abrasive, and mean... None of which I am... I'm just black & white... But you're right! Eating is the #1 key to getting your body the way you want it... Most gals don't eat enough or eat properly to support a highly active lifestyle... Eat to lose weight seems like such an oxymoron! LOL!!!! :) Hope y'all are doing well!!! Many hugs!
  5. I think that looks like a fun/hard workout. :) I agree with most of what is said above... Cardio is necessary though... You need it to help facilitate your metabolism and to build the strength of your heart/cardiac muscles. Heather Jackson - an ironman triathlete - is crazy ripped and she trains cardio for 4+ hours/day... So to completely say cardio will disenegrate muscle is a fallacy. It's about the right combination of diet and weight lifting and cardio for your body/goals. :)

  6. My coach is Lauren Fazio (Team Vixen). She's in London, Ontario. You should email her if you want - [email protected]. She's amazing and her girls do REALLY well in OCB competitions! :) I think she has two or three pro girls even. :) I am better. Dr's aren't sure exactly what was wrong. I got a huge bump on the back of my head/top of neck. Then I started getting horrible headaches & neck aches. About a week later I would get horrible pains throughout my body when I would eat and vomit everything I would eat. That lasted about 3 weeks. I didn't have West Nile Virus as I was tested 3 times. I am better now but getting back to where I was strength/cardio wise is taking MUCH longer than I thought. I went from 14% Body Fat @ 123# to 22% Body Fat @ 117#. It was by far the worst and weirdest feeling I have ever had! If you want to combine fitness & Psychology I'd recommend working with Dancers or eating disordered adolescents. When I was in ballet, I needed someone who understood the pressures of dance, eating, and balanced lifestyles. I think a lot of youth athletes don't understand the balance between sports pressures and life. It really can jack with someone emotionally & physically. That'd be my thought on who you can reach out to. :) but eating disordered patients will need fitness to help rebuild the destruction and muscle loss the disorder has caused. Besides - fitness is the #1 way to rebuild the cardiac muscle after trauma from the disorders. :) so maybe that could be another approach. :)

  7. hey you! that's fantastic - do you have a coach currently? Marathon, wow! Yes I can imagine you and your partner motivate one another immensely ;) My fiance takes care of himself through exercise etc but I am admittedly "overly intense" :) I love it though, and it's the lifestyle I want to lead! Holy cardio girl! I do two a days on occasion with the small cardio amt I am doing currently. Do you have stage pics etc? would love to see! 
    400 400 400 I hope those work - I'm uploading from my phone! Lol... That's from my most recent show last June - right before I got really sick... I've since lost weight & severe muscle - I'm basically starting from scratch now! :( Yeah - Adam is my rock in so many ways! He's my biggest fan & support system! :) I do have a coach I use for the 12-16 wk contest prep but I'm a personal trainer so I train myself in the off season. Lauren basically helps me with nutrition and sanity during prep. She's basically AMAZING!!! Funny - she's in Canada! Lol. :)
