Western Canadians 2011- Kelowna













Thursday, May 19th, 2001- 4am wake up call, up and off to do my last cardio workout and routine practice. Quick breakfast, packing my cooler for the weekend with about 30 chicken breasts, a bag of beans, a package of oatmeal, water and my oils and vitamins. 7am, ready to pick up Brandy, with a hot fresh cup of coffee in a to go mug and off to the airport. 3 hours of driving a head of us and in my tummy about 2.5 litres of water already.....long drive lots ad lots of pee breaks. I started 3 days ago to water load, which is anywhere between 8-10 litre of water in a day.
7:10pm, finally arrived in Kelowna, after a long delay and being stranded in Vancouver at the airport for hours. Thank god I kept my cooler with food on me as a carry-on or I would have had some serious problems. In Kelowna, finally at the hotel room...time to get my first coat of Jan Tana tanning lotion on....wow....me and my friend Brandy def. have entered a new level into our friendship....the poor girl had to put that nasty lotion all over my body and when I say ALL OVER I mean ALL OVER....there is NO place left on me which she hasn't seen....!!!! We laughed so much during applying the tan that we forgot how it actually must have looked for others seeing us. 
Friday, May 20th, 2011- slept in, today was no cardio or any training, simply relaxing and a little bit of posing. Went to the mall and shopped a bit. Back in the hotel, 2nd coat of tan lotion and into some huge baggy pants, oversized t-shirt and off to the weigh ins. This process took forever since there were about 150 competitors...it was so warm in that room that I thought I would melt and my lotion was sticky and all over my cloths. After weigh ins were finally accomplished, I had my Steak supper ahead of me. Went to a great restaurant with Jeni ( my trainer), Debbie ( friend and teammate) and of course Brandy. At 6 pm tonight was my last intake of water or any kind of liquid until the competition was all over. I won't ever forget the facial expression of the server when she asked me what I like to eat and I told her: a 7 oz steak, no spices on it, and loooots of asparagus, simply steamed-no salt, no butter no anything. Ok the server said...and what would you like to drink?....ME- nothing....she asked again....: water miss? No NOTHING, I answered......uuuurrrgggghhhh......I wish I could have ordered a simple glass of water....but depletion here I start! 
Saturday May 21st, 2011- Competition Day-
5:45am wake up call. Into my oversized pants and shirt again, eating my 3 oz chicken and 1/2cup oats for breakfast-NO COFFEE or water. urgh...I missed that coffee so much. Brandy started doing my hair and make up and the time just flew by. Next thing I knew we were at the theatre and I was backstage in the dressing room, crowded and lost between 45 other girls in bikinis and tons of make up. I couldn't believe I was finally here. The day came faster than I had expected. I pretty much followed Debbie around like a puppy his mommy. I had NO clue where to go or where to start. Bodybuilders were first on the list. And there were more than 30 bodybuilders. So we had quite some time to get into our 2 piece suit for the posing routine. Glued our bikini bottoms on to our bum and "boobs" and slipped the heels on. About 30 min before you get to walk on stage you go behind stage to pump up ( which means you are trying to fight for some room and light dumbbells and lift so the muscles are going to look nice and full).
My competitor number- #79. I came on stage 2, right behind the girl who placed 1st. She looked fantastic. Her butt tighter than tight and her deltoids perfectly shaped, same as the rest of her body. I did feel a bit dis-couraged I have to admit. Walking on that stage in a bikini with 5"heels on is hard enough BUT trying to pose and keep the hands and lips down from shaking - NOT POSSIBLE! Thank goodness I rubbed some vaseline cream on my teeth, the lack of liquid dried up my mouth so bad ( almost like drinking 1 1/2 of red wine) that my upper lip would have stuck on to my teeth. I had a hard time to smile cause constant shaking of my mouth seem to make it near impossible to have a somewhat normal smile.
After the posing round was done, we had about 1.5 hours to change into the routine costume and to stretch, warm up and relax. By now I must have had about 25 chocolate covered almonds to give me some energy and a bit more fat so I wouldn't look flat. Jeni constantly text me with the words: did you eat, girly? When was it the last time you ate? have more almonds...! Have another 12 almonds...mooooooore almonds....! ( not that I had something bad to say about that...lol).
My moods were better than expected and my energy levels were 100%. I really thought I would be grumpy, tired and a bitch, but it was the actual opposite. I was energetic, happy and bubbly. When it came to performing the rouutine, it sure helped me to have the energy and the strength. I was very happy about my performance. I think it was clean and smooth. No fall overs or losing balance! NOW, this was judging round. The morning show is always the judging part. Everything is set in the morning. Around 1 pm and another 2 chocolate covered almonds later we were back at the hotel to rest a bit. Ate more chicken and almonds and 6pm, back to the theatre and back into the routine costume and performing everything again, same as this morning. The night show is where the most seats are sold and it's basically the entertainment "fun" part of the weekend! After performing it's time for results. I placed 4th in tall class.....we were 7 in total but divided by size. I was a little bit frustrated and sad about my placing, but told myself, that I came this far and dedicated my entire mind and body for this...I AM A WINNER no matter about the results. 
The first things when I got of the stage, I went and ate my peanut butter sandwich with a banana. mmmmmhhhh......that was a mood pick me upper!!!! Debbie ( placed 3rd) and I jumped into our cloths and all of us went for a nice supper....pizza for me! FANTASTIC! Also, couldn't we resist to have drinks already. Deb and I almost finished a bottle of red vino before we even got out of out 2 piece fancy suit ( bikini). After supper the only thing I really wanted and def. needed was a shower and wash all that brown tan stuff of my body. Yikes, that took me almost 15 minutes. And from there, off to bed! Absolutely exhausted, tired and a bit sick from all the food I inhaled.
Sunday, 22nd, 2011- Home sweet home. Back to the airport and off to Calgary. 
I really didn't take a day off. Monday morning I was already back at the gym for cardio and back workout. My next competition ( the more important one) is coming in 10 days. So, NO time for resting. In 2 weeks from now I will be in Germany and thats when relaxing is the BIG ingredient in my day!
I will keep you posted in the next few days for the upcoming excitement for the Edmonton Show!
Thank you all for the good luck wishes! I love you all!!!!!

It was one little moment which made it perfect!


So here I am...3 days away for competition day. It is wednesday morning and I started waterloading and taking my water tight pills since this morning. My diet is going to be "extreme" again until show is over. On my meal plan: chicken, beans, asparagus, oatmeal, sweet potatoes and water...that's it....for breakfast, snacks, lunch an dinners.
My body is leaning already more, can't wait to see the "final" result after the water got all out under my skin. I love the feeling of the body and mind connection these days. I have never felt stronger in my entire 32 years of life. I thought I would be grumpy these past few days, but I actually feel bubbly and energetic. I got up this morning at 4:30 am as usual and were finished my cardio workout before 6am, went into the fitness room, cranked up the stereo and practiced my routine. I haven't been overally happy with the routine part these days....I was a bit unsure if I can pull it off, until Brandy ( my friend) cam e into the room and made me do a run through for her. She's been with me from day one and not ONCE did I show her my choeography of the routine....( shame on me)...so today was the day. She turned my "not sure-feeling" of the routine  into I FEEL PERFECT about it! The way she stood beside the Stereo, crying for pride, made it simply better than perfect. She was so proud....sooooo proud and reminded me on my mom, when she saw me in my wedding dress for the very first time...simply proud and touched. Her and I got so much closer over the past 6 month and I can't imagine having done this without her! I am so proud of her for working out everyday with me and keeping me motivated...SHE IS MY GEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I thank god everyday for bringing her into my life!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are leaving at 6:30 am to drive to Calgary to the Airport, which is about a 3 hour drive...well, with the waterloading it might take us 4 cause of all the pee breaks I have to take...lol!
We fly around 3pm into Kelwona, BC where my friend Debbie is already awaiting us to drive us to the Hotel. That day the only "big" thing happening will be meeting my trainer Jeni for the first time, applying my tan lotion and I believe Jeni will make me do some posing rounds. Friday, we rest, no more cardio or training. Stretching and routine run through and at 6pm the weigh ins and measurements as well as drug testing for the show. Saturday wake up call for 6am and off to the theatre early enough to get a spot with a mirror to get ready ( make up, hair and the whole Doll me up prep). And than it's show time baby! I have actually 2 shows that day...in the morning that's the one where all the judging is done, the night show is the entertainment show....that's when you have the BIG audience and perform just for the fun and show off your positive energy!
My suitcase is packed and my cooler filled with chicken and the rest of the food I need. Now, all I need is YOU guys crossing your fingers for me and keep me in your thoughts on saturday!
Bring it on Kelowna cause I am READY  for YOU!

Only 7 days left!










So, it's friday night and I am 7 days away from stage. We are actually talking days now not weeks anymore, wow! Next week at this time I will be sitting in my hotel room with Brandy, Deb and my coach Jeni, trying to focus and relax. Wow, I can't believe the time is here for the final lean down and water load. Tomorrow it is time for serious business. No more diet pop, sugar free gum or protein powder. Clean and natural foods only. Water loading starts tomorrow as well. ( meaning drink water, more water and even more water). The diet will get a bit rougher by wednesday, no more sodium whatsoever. No salt, pepper any spices, plain and simple chicken, beans and asparagus, oatmeal and sweet potatoes are my options. I fly out thursday morning from Calgary into Kelowna,BC. I already started packing my suitcase....there are so many things to remember, i decided to start packing tonight so I won't forget the important things. What's in my suitcase? Here a little sample list:
sheets, pillow case, towels ( cause of the tan lotion you don't wanna mess up the once in the hotel room),  asparagus, green beans, elastic workout rubber bands, running shoes, underwear, lashes, make up, all my vitamin packs, gloves to put the lotion on, chocolate covered almonds ( mmmhhh....for pre stage pump up), a bottle of diet coke ( suppose to help if cramping in the muscles), extra costume attachments, cloths, plain almonds, and way more to go.....I still have a list of things to add into it. In my carry on I def. will take my suit, costume and high heels, my routine music cd's and I can't forget my cooler with my 93 oz of chicken breast and my 6oz steak...all pre cooked and has to get heated up in the microwave at the hotel...yikes! The food has to stay close to me, cause thats the most important piece of luggage right along with the suits and the routine music!!!!!
My moods these days are going up and down like a roller coaster. People now notice I am looking exhausted, tired and irritated. My husband Ken just said the other night to me: I see you in 4 weeks....glad to have you back than! WOW, hard words, but true words. I am anything BUT a wife or perfect mom these past 8 weeks. My focus is completely directed to my competition and my physique. I am looking forward to relax after the show for a while and to spend more time with my family. I am glad I have someone around me, who is trying to support me as good as it gets, especially with my bitchiness.  On mothers day, my husband and daughter took me out for a breakfast brunch (buffet style). He wanted me to go to the food section to make Ava ( my child) a plate with food....I just gave him a dirty look and asked him if was kidding? I told him he can't do that, cause the food is screaming out for me to eat it and if he couldn't be more supportive and take her along with him and leave me behind with my "own prepared-brought protein pancakes". His EXACT reply: Seriously Schatz? No f'n person held a gun on your head and told you to do this diet....so take your daughter and get her some flippin' food- dont' let it out on  us!" Wow...call that an eye opener and a honest opinion. I did go, bit my lips, tried not to breathe, so I wouldn't inhale the smell of the food and concentrated on NOT breaking out into tears! Now, since it's 1 week left until show, I am happy I never did touch the food. I tell myself every morning when my alarm goes off at 4:30am and when I do not feel like getting up, Di get your ass out of bed, cause the girl on the stage beside you did! Or when I want peanut butter so bad- I have to remind myself of the girls up on stage, that they haven't put their fingers into the jar and you can tell on their figures! I can't wait to have my peanut butter sandwich after the show....HEAVEN....it will be HEAVEN!
Have a great night and I will keep posting this week everyday about my workouts, diet and general things!

2 weeks out from today

Today I am exactly 2 weeks away from the first show in Kelowna, British Columbia. My thoughts and emotions? PANIC ATTACKS! I must have had the "biggest" blow up, meltdown lose my mind, kind a mood yesterday. For some reason I look like I am losing my ABS....they seem flat, soft and appear not as ripped and hard since a few days...GREAT...that's exactly what I need right now. I am this close and don't and CAN"T afford to lose my muscles. I was so livid and angry about everything yesterday that the first and only thought to make me feel better was to go and lift some weights. I also wrote a long text message to my trainer Jeni and bitched about me and my  problem. Thank god for her and for the words she gave me to calm me down. No worries Diana, you retain water and you are doing fantastic...., her words in gods ears!!!!
Also, did  we started to bedazzle my suit for the 2 piece fancy round ( the posing part). My suit looks fantastic! But me and crafty things???? eeeehhhh....not so much....I do not have patience in general for little  fiddling things....and now to put tiny, blinky stones on a piece of fabric? Ya...good luck with that! HUGE THANKS again to my friend Brandy...WOW...she did my whole top with such patience and even with having 3 kids running around the house, she did a perfect job! I love her......looooove her!!!!! I do not know what I would ever do without a friend like her. She is my biggest fan and supporter in every way. Just the other day, I was at her house for lunch....( she ALWAYS knows what kind of a carb day I am on, and cooks exactly what I am allowed to have) and she made me a MAhi burger ( no bread, of course) and some homemade sweet potato fries - she makes the best ones-!!! Anyways, by the time I got to her house I went straight  to her "treat" cupboard and looked for some plain rice crackers cause I was starving......she would walk over and shut the cupboards and told me : Diana, I DO NOT let you sabotage your diet....you are THIS close...NO...sit down and wait until lunch is ready! gggggggrrrrrrr, was my responds to that!
She's a great friend and I am more than thankful to have her in my life!
Other than that, well my choeography is coming along for the routine part. Just have to touch up some things! My body is ready to perform, my mind not so much yet. I am overly nervous and excited, a little bit scared actually.
May 19th, I will drive up to Calgary to the Airport and fly out at 12(noon)....I totally dislike flying but thinking I will focus on other things anyways. I am already trying to plan how I am going to prepare all my food cause my 4 days of pre contest dieting starts wednesday and continues until show is over. I have to go and get a big cooler and prepare, 22 chicken breasts, asparagus, green beans, sweet potatoes and can't forget my oatmeal. I do not have a kitchen in my room, just a microwave and a fridge, which will do. Next week I have to start exfoliating my body to get the old skin off so the tanning lotion applies better. Also, will I add another Vitamin ( B6) and start taking water tights ( those are the pills to suck the water out of your skin).
For the rest of this weekend, I will try to enjoy a diet pop here and there and try to relax and mentally prepare myself that things ARE GOING TO WORK OUT!

COMPETITION ROUNDS
Rounds of Competition

  1. Physique Round
  2. Routine
  3. Physique Round (FINALS)
Physique: 2 piece bathing suit and heels

The Physique round will be judged on overall athleticism with regard to symmetry, firmness and proportion as well as overall physical appearance including hair and skin tone, poise and overall presentation. Remember, this is not a bodybuilding class, competitors exhibiting the vascularity, size and definition often seen in bodybuilding will be marked down. At all times, the judges will be viewing the competitors from the moment the competitor walks on stage, until the moment the competitor walks off stage, with an emphasis on a "healthy, fit, athletic" physique in an attractively presented "Total Package". 

The physique will be assessed as to its level of overall muscle tone, achieved through athletic endeavors. The muscle groups should have a round firm appearance with a small amount of body fat. The physique should neither be excessively muscular nor excessively lean and should be free from deep muscle separation and or striations. Physiques that are considered either too muscular or too lean may be marked down. 

The assessment will also take into consideration the tightness and tone of the skin. The skin tone should be smooth and healthy in appearance and without cellulite. The face, hair and makeup should complement the "total package" presented by the athlete. 
Routine: BOTH PREJUDGE AND FINALS

Each athlete will present a fitness routine set to music of their choice of up to 90 seconds. You may use less than 90 seconds. Bring your music to the weigh-ins. The CD should contain only the music for the routine. 

The athlete will be judged on the entire routine from the moment the athlete walks on stage until the moment the athlete walks off stage. The judges will be looking for a well-choreographed and creative routine performed at a high tempo/speed. 

There are NO required moves for the routine round. However, the following moves are extremely common amongst competitors: 

* Sideways splits 

* Front splits 

* One arm push-up 

* V-split presshold 

* Straight leg press hold 

* High leg kick to the front with hold 

Although compulsory movements are not a requirement, the routine should include elements of STRENGTH, FLEXIBILITY and SPEED. 

  1. Elements of STRENGTH: for example: straddle holds, leg extensions and one-arm push ups. Please note that gymnastic movements such as front and back flips, handsprings and cartwheels are not considered strength elements).
  2. Elements of FLEXIBILITY: for example: high kicks, front splits, and/or side splits.
  3. The SPEED or tempo of the routine demonstrates a degree of cardiovascular fitness, stamina and endurance.
There is a "showmanship" which competitors bring to a fitness routine that is unique to them. This is their personality, charisma, stage presence and charm, as well as a natural rhythm. The judges will take these components into consideration when determining the final placing of the competitor. Finals

In this round, the athletes will perform their fitness routine, as in the prejudging. This part of the round is not scored. 

The athletes are brought back on stage, in numerical order and in a single line, wearing a bikini and high heels. This part of the round is scored. This round is judged using the same assessment as in prejudging. 
Judging Results

If you wish to approach the judges, please do so after the show is over, or at the conclusion of the evening finals. The judges at the night show are also judging for the various overall awards so make sure your class has finished. You can also contact the head judge or the Alberta Bodybuilding Association for information regarding scores, results, etc. 
Sportsmanship

This requires that an athlete conduct himself in a manner which will reflect favorably on the sport of bodybuilding. Any conduct contrary to that effect is discouraged, and depending on the severity of such conduct, can lead to suspension from competition. Such conduct includes, but is not limited to:

  1. Making disparaging remarks concerning any ABBA official, judge or fellow athletes in the venue location.
  2. Making disparaging gestures while on stage.
  3. Smashing, breaking or throwing an award, damaging or vandalizing the contest venue.
  4. Any conduct which demeans you, your fellow athletes, judges or officials.
Competition can be a source of great personal triumph. There are no guarantees. The nature of the competition requires "risk taking". Sometimes you may wind up being very disappointed because you did not do as well as you wanted to, or as well as you thought you deserved. Whatever happens, leave the audience with the impression that you are a gracious competitor, that you have dignity and class. The way that you present yourself and take your placement will be remembered long after people remember what place you took. SUIT SELECTION

  • Competitors will compete in a two-piece suit and fitness routine suit of their choice. The bottom of the suit must be V-shaped. No thongs are permitted. Competitors can compete in an off the rack suit. All swimsuits must be in good taste.
  • Competitors must wear high heels, no restrictions.
  • Competitors may wear jewelry.
  • Choose velvet over any other material type. It's forgiving and hides competition tan well.
  • Get your suit padded, even if you have implants, it adds to the overall shape.
  • Ensure it has an underwire or something in the design that accentuates the bust
  • Choose a rhinestone pattern that is flattering. Remember to emphasis shape when thinking of your design pattern.
  • The "v" on the bottom should fall just above the butt checks.
  • The outside of the top under the arm, should end where the chest line falls.
  • Suits and costumes must cover breasts and buttocks.
  • G-strings are not allowed.
  • Competitors may dress as they deem appropriate in order to perform their routines. No props are allowed.
  • The color and style of the bikini shall be left to the competitor's discretion.
  • The bikini bottom must cover a minimum of one-half of the buttocks during the whole time of the lineup and comparisons.

SHOES

  • Heels must be worn in the physique rounds and athletic/dance shoes must be worn during the routine. Bare feet are not allowed.
  • The color and style of the high-heels shall be left to the competitor's discretion.
  • There are no rules stating that shoes with ankle straps cannot be worn however, keep in mind this style of shoe flatters very few women as it makes the leg look cut off and short.

3 weeks out- No one said it would be easy!

These past 3 1/2 days were ABSOLUTE torture for me and my family. As I had mentioned in my blog before, my trainer put me on the diet for the last 4 days prior to competition, to see how my body will respond to it and if it wouldn't do great we have enough time to make changes until the week before my show. Anyways....I must have went through the hardest part in this journey. In 3 1/2 days I ate: 93 oz of chicken breast, a 6oz steak, a little bit of oat meal, 2 -3/4 cups of sweet potatoes, 26 liters of water, a huge bag of frozen green beans and 4lb of asparagus.....I AM CHICKEN''ed out! bbaaahhhh...bbrrrr.....throw up!!!!! Chicken ( 6oz most meals) for breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner. I ate 20 chicken breast in 3 1/2 days.....I still have a hard time to believe I did that. I usually dislike beef and pork and actually be close to a vegetarian if I am not on this diet, but I have to say....the steak last night was a TREAT! I ate it in under 2 minutes....no time or patience to enjoy it...it  was heaven! Guess I found my meat "love" again!!!! I wasn't allowed to drink any water past 6pm last night until about noon today. So eating chicken ( cooked and heated up for breakfast...dry as a sole of a running shoe) chucked down with no water...there were a few moments I thought I was actually choking....thank god I had some oatmeal and prepared it, some what liquid, that gave me a bit help to get that piece of chicken down my throat! I had 2 meals this morning....went to the gym ate about 8 chocolate covered almonds, pre pumped some weight and made new pics. Let me quickly tell you about me and 8 chocolate covered almonds.....the first one I put into my mouth was so fast down that I do not think my body actually noticed what went just into it.....but the second one....my FACE LIT UP like a child on x-mas day! WOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!!!!!! My moods, from 0 to 100 in under 25 seconds! I never wanted to stop popping them into my mouth...but had to remind myself...8 Diana, just 8...well, I can't lie...I had about 12.....! lol! After that, I was able to eat my "normal" food again....normal not for anybody who is not competing but fairly good for me! Tonight my moods and energy levels are extremely fantastic. The past 3 days I couldn't stand myself. I was bitchier than bitchy, miserable, rude, unusual tired and didn't even wanted to walk from the couch to the kitchen. I felt asleep watching Twilight...which is one of my fave movies....( maybe more cause of the character)....but me sleeping through it before 8pm? Ya, that means, I either get sick or i have absolutely no energy left in me. And energy was a word for me I couldn't even spell yesterday. You would think eating this healthy, clean and much protein would give you enough energy for the day....heck NO! ALso the amount of water I had to drink...8-10 liters a day it's a lot of liquid and def. a lot of pee breaks during the day and the night. So, my trainer likes my results....BUT wants to add some fat....now I am hoping for some additional peanut butter back into my diet...maybe 1 tbsp a day??? Would be fantastic!
I am 3 weeks out from my first show and I can't wait to get my body on that stage! 3 more weeks and the first show is over, after that a 2 week period of strict dieting left, into my second show and my big reward "Germany-Home" is to follow!
Thanks for your guys's support everybody!!!!!
