You guys should've seen the trophy he got as well.....he's still ripped up even after the show - he hasn't gained 30 pounds like some of our board members are prone to do....LMAO

Weight gain

Bigshug - I've actually only gained back 3 - 4 lbs from the contest day. And I did have some crap food in there too, A DQ Blizzard, about 4 bowls of ice cream, a beer, some wine with dinner, an extra portion of spaghetti, etc.

Guess that I was so starved for this stuff my body sucked it up but did not blow up. I also started a new workout routine which is more intensive and kicking my butt so I think that I'm burning up the extra calories. I'll probably be up to where I was before the pre-contest diet started in a week or two. Takes 9 weeks to drop it and 2 to put it back - doesn't seem fair!

Now compared to midweight this is nothing - mid didn't you put on like 25 lbs a day for a week? Must be about 250 by now - lol

At first I thought that the trophy was odd looking, but it's growing on me. It is intended to be a Greek God statue, Zeus I guess.. It is one of those Neils Anderson trophys so it is not cheap looking but it surely is different from the other ones I have.
