so this is what you look like when you've been training for six months but have made no changes to your diet and only cut back on drinking a LITTLE. i'm not fat, i know, but i'm not a lean little hardbody either!

I'm wearing 64. I placed 6th but feel like I couldn't have looked better. I got a lot of compliments on my tan and presentation, which is awesome considering I'm so new to the sport!
