Hi, Linda-

Thanks for your message and for taking the extra step to make new members such as myself feel welcome. I joined this forum in late Nov but have been so busy that I have not had much time to jump in and join all the fun on Extreme Fitness. I just started competing in Figure last year and placed pretty well locally but realized that if I wanted to do well at the National level I needed to build up my lats and get better at posing. So I took the rest of the year off (2 shows in June and July 2005) and my next show is the Kentucky Figure in Covington on March 18th. I am excited and will just play it by ear and see how it goes. I am training really hard and making some progress, but have a long way to go yet. : ) I am also trying to break into Fitness modeling but it is hard to do. I keep sending in my photos and hoping one day I'll make it into a fitness magazine. If not, nothing is lost and at least I can say I tried, right? : )

I admire you and think you look great and am so happy that you are so kind and willing to share your knowledge with others. Thanks for all your support and guidance. I look up to you and hope to learn a lot on this forum.

I am really looking forward to talking to you and the other Fitness and Figure women out there!

HAPPY NEW YEAR and I'll talk to you soon.
Nadine
