Just asking but, are you a fitness competitor?
I am a Women's Physique competitor. :D But I have nothing but great respect for the Fitness division. Those ladies put together kick a$$ routines!

Oh, I got my UD Vice lippies today...LOVE!!!! Sheer Rapture & Sheer F-Bomb are both sooooo beautiful on. I love the texture too.
I got mine yesterday too! Wearing EZ today and :heart: it!

Okay, random question in random place...Jet.com? They surprising carry some high end brands of makeup! And we are talking discounted with additional discounts added. Has anyone purchased anything from Jet? I am wondering where they are getting their stock from?

That's amazing! What you do takes some serious dedication to diet and working out!
Awwww thanks so much!

LOL! For those outside of the bodybuilding lifestyle it is often viewed as crazy biscuits!
:crazy:

I have had quite the "health" journey over the past 6 years going from obese to crazy lean for competing to where I am now, a "fit chick!" I am a natural athlete and compete more for the fun and challenge of it. The real challenge is indeed the diet as I love training!

BUT I also love eating...So dumbbell-lifting-smiley-emoticon.gif

My hubby is a national level BB who went for his pro-card in 2014 & 2015. He missed it, placing 3rd both times. I am more than proud of him. This year we are not competing choosing to focus on the growth of his company and enjoying our downtime in a more relaxed way.

Well I commend you both! As an obese person trying to loss the weight, I understand how hard it is. And yes, food is the biggest challenge. I can workout like a beast but struggle everyday with my diet. I went balls to the walls for six months and then Christmas came, I had a bad day at work and nothing has been the same since. I'm a different person than I was a year ago but, I have not come as far as I had hoped. One day, I will get there. And for the record, I think "fit chicks" are awesome and guys who get in the squat rack and squat heavy $h1t are hot! LOL!

You and I know how hard it is to stay on a healthy course. It can be highly frustrating and depressing! I know also that you and I have learned that it is an ongoing journey.

While I do compete, I am NOT an advocate for competitive bodybuilding. Honestly! It is an extreme both in weight gain and loss! It is not normative. It is not healthy! And it can lead to so many problems beyond maintaining a healthy weight, living a healthy lifestyle.

I AM an advocate for finding a solid healthy normal.
Only now in the past year of not competing have I been able to find my new "normal." But having once been large, I will always have to be mindful, careful and keep moving.

Hold strong! Get that inner beast raging! You will get there again. I believe in you! ;)

p.s Once I got my hands on ole man muscle...there was no going back. lol!

LMAO too funny!! I couldn't resist today either. I only picked up one. Being on a beauty budget SUCKS. I'm going back for Sunlight tomorrow though. Have you tried them yet?Or just ordered?

Dead!! LOL!

Here's something that will make you laugh...I think I have developed BB Belly. I told a friend that I felt like my stomach has gotten bigger during this process. This morning I decided to do a little research and find out what could be causing this. Of course, it appears to be a weak abs which makes sense because working abs is always the one thing I hate to do. LOL! Have to fix that problem!

Since the Anastasia Modern Renaissance palette is now available at Sephora, I thought I'd show it some love in this thread. I've had it for a week and it may be my favorite palette of all time. Not kidding. I have so many palettes from UD, MUFE, Kat Von D and I think this beats them all.

The colors are beautiful, they're super pigmented and blend like a dream. I've been using the more brown and orange colors and it getting a beautiful color combination is almost fool proof. This makes my blue eyes pop and is a must have for blue or green eyes.

As mentioned in all the reviews, it is powdery in the pan but it doesn't bother me at all as there is no fall out. You just need a light tap in the pan to get the product.

so glad this is permanent so I don't have to buy backups!

Sooo I went to Sephora today and got the Candlelight highlighter by Cover FX. Sunlight seemed too ashy or just too...something. Candlelight seemed to work better on my complexion so we'll see. I also got the Perfect Pencil in N Deep for my waterline because every other pencil makes me look like I have boogers in my eye, but not this. I just have to test the wear time.

I know we've talked about this before, but I need a hydrating eye cream. My under eye area is so dry. Everything creases on me or dries out that area. Any suggestions? What are you using?
