Sorry for the delayed response. In response to your comment: It is a shame that they acted in that manner, however, it was recommended to me not to compete in case it could prevent me from any future events and shows of the NPC. Do you compete? If so what organization? Division? Where are you located?<br /> <br /> xoxoxo</span> tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2010-04-10:2997501 Carol Medina 2010-04-10T16:30:02Z 2010-04-10T16:30:02Z <span style="color: #c0504d;">Hey there!

I competed recently and it had NOTHING to do with fitness. It was a popularity contest. In addition you had to behave like a stage slut. Coming from someone that takes fitness very seriously and is also going to compete in the NPC, you did the right thing. I also experienced the same type of reaction to my situation from the hosts. tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2010-01-28:2764911 Janessa Mondestin http://Betterfitbody.blogspot.com 2010-01-28T17:56:16Z 2010-01-28T17:56:16Z Wow! You are probably better off. If they treat you as such before the contest could you imagine during or after. They seem extremely unprofessional. tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2010-01-27:2760744 Carol Medina 2010-01-27T15:44:38Z 2010-01-27T15:44:38Z Thanks hun!<br> tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2010-01-19:2741557 Douzy 2010-01-20T02:25:51Z 2010-01-20T02:25:51Z did it! ;) tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2010-01-10:2719603 Douzy 2010-01-10T05:00:15Z 2010-01-10T05:00:15Z ;) Thanks Carol! tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2009-12-31:2696153 Musclepapa John http://www.Musclepapa.com 2010-01-01T01:37:05Z 2010-01-01T01:37:05Z Happy New Year Chica! tag:blog.carolmedinafitnessstudio.com,2009-12-12:2638840 Carol Medina 2009-12-12T10:49:10Z 2009-12-12T10:49:10Z Hi Robert,<br>A very easy way to estimate your serving sizes is by "eye balling" or visualizing it. One medium sized fruit count as a serving or 1/2 cup -1 cup, depending on which type of fruit it is. For vegetables, its one medium size vegetable or 1/2 cup for most vegetables, 11 cup for raw green leafy vegetables, 1/2 cup for cooked green leafy vegetables, and 2-4 cups for lettuces and spinach leaves.<br> <br>As you can see the servings vary depending on the type of fruit or vegetable. For that reason, I have provided you with a List of Serving Sizes for most popular fruits and vegetables.<br> <br> <div> <a target="_blank" href="https://acrobat.com/#d=ljAbtb19uEixDFJ9chK8PQ">DOWNLOAD: Dialed In Fitness List of Serving Sizes for popular fruits &amp; vegetables</a> </div> <br>&nbsp; <br>The important thing to remember is to try to include at least a serving of either fruit or vegetable in all your meals and snacks, if possible.
