Well, I Made It. Now What?
I do not know how many even know about bodybuilding.com’s 2008 Transformation contest, but it begins December 26, 2007. Over the past few weeks several people fulfilled requirements set by bodybuilding.com to be one of the 5 contestants chosen. They chose the contestants Saturday the 15th. This particular transformation focused on weight loss.
Many people were anxiously waiting online watching the 2008 Transformation sign-up thread and hitting the refresh button on their browser every few seconds. In the end 5 were chosen. It was an online version of American Idol but instead of selected contestants screaming, "I’m going to Hollywood.", they typed, "I’m going to the weight room". It was a rather exhausting night.
I was lucky and selected as a contestant with only 2 slots left to fill. My fellow official contestants are:
- Daretosoar
- Stonecoldtruth
- Maddi
- Fussioncom
There are many more unofficial contestants that will be giving the official 5 a run for their money. It must have been tough selecting 5 because there were so many with great stories as to why they should be selected. Read the 2008 sign-up thread to read the many great entries.
There will be an official 2008 Transformation blog where the official contestants will be posting and we are required to post a weekly workout video of ourselves as well. I hope you all will stop by and give encouragement to the official 5 and the unofficial many.

Jumbo, yours is the transformation I am most looking forward to watching. Because you remind me so much of myself I think you are going to just tear it up. I hope that we can both stay strong until then end, just know even though you are my competition. I won’t let you slack off.

Great post. I am so glad you made it. I think you are going to make a fabulous transformation. You and SCT can fight for second. My team the CW and manager Ninjabill wont except anything but first place from me. LOL Seriously l am looking forward to cheering you one. Best of luck.

Best of luck to both of you as well. I really don’t see how we can fail to all be winners. Now, could I have your addresses so I can send you a ton of Christmas cookies and candies????? JK
I honestly would had to place a bet as to who will win this thing. SCT has pythons for arms and Dare, your video proved you are one strong gal.
I will probably continue to do what I have been doing this past month and then hit it into overdrive on the 26.

I am just getting my plan in order and having it reviewed by some of my friends. I will officially start on game day. But if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. As far as the cookies goes, my vendors are hitting me with plenty of food right now. I am having trouble giving it all away. LOL Best of luck Jumbo. I know you are going to do fabulous.
