OK here comes the long post lol. WOW what a weekend. First of all I want to thank God for all of the blessings I was given this year and without Him I couldnt have done it. I want to thank my family for their love and support especially Mom Marina Baker because she had to put up with my crazy diet mood swings more than anyone. I want to thank my main inspiration Keiva Bundy for all of his help and guidance with this show. I know I was a pain with all of the questions I was asking lol. Thanks to Jonathan Shreve for his help with my posing routine that Im saving for next time ;). I want to thank Phil Crabbe for being there for me anytime I needed him for anything even while he was prepping himself you kicked some major ass tonight brother I couldnt be more proud of you. I want to thank Ben Pelzer for being an all around solid bro this whole time. We basically went through this prep step by step for the first time together and we talked almost every single day to keep each other sane. Ben you blow me away man your commitment and drive is unheard of and I know youre going places man off season starts now!! I want to thank everyone on team Stay Hungry for everything they did, if it wasnt for Stay Hungry I definitely wouldnt have been able to prep and get this done. Thanks to Allan MacVicar for the opportunity to have employment somewhere that allows me to prep and diet through the day much easier than my old job or many other jobs out there and the monthly supplement support. I also want to thank Justin Huyghue for the diet tips here and there I really feel they helped a lot and made a difference. Thanks to Jerrico Gray for your on going support, motivation and love big guy I always appreciate it. Every time we talk you were building me up and adding fuel to my flame and I appreciate that more than you know brother. As well my team Stay Hungry running mates who also competed today Justin, Carolyn Eldridge , Alee Wickins , you guys prepping was another motivating factor and seeing you guys progress was amazing you all looked incredible and Im proud of each of you! Thanks to Roger Sparks for the chats at the store when I would have been sitting around bored and the ongoing motivation as well. Off season starts now booiiiiii lets get them gaaaaiiiinnnzzz. Thanks to Erika Deagle for getting up super early and taking my progress pictures every week you were an amazing help and Im glad you helped me through. I can keep going on and on for days because I received so much love and support throughout this whole process that it blew me away. I had no idea so many people cared and were motivated by me and each and every one of you mean the world to me. Dylan Holzer and Karla Kletchko , Stephen Parsons , Rowan Humble , and so so so many more. You are all an inspiration yourselves and Im blessed to have you guys as friends. And there are so many people Im missing and please dont feel like I forgot about you if I didnt tag you in this status. All of my close friends outside of the fitness community you all played a huge role too by pushing me forward with your support. Id tag you all but my phone and fb would explode. But Im sure you know who you are, some here local and some all over Canada and now over seas youre all amazing. And last but certainly not least Id like to thank Santana Anderson and everyone at the NSABBA who did an AMAZING job running this show. You guys take a lot of stress on and volunteer to do this show and I appreciate it beyond words and I feel you guys deserve all the credit in the world for doing a stand up amazing job!! Georgina Dunnington , Leah Diane Johnson , Janelle Samson , Ann-Marie Flinn ,and everyone else who was backstage helping, taking stats, playing music, organizing brain dead competitions (lol) and everything else that had to be out together for the show. Youre all amazing!! And a HUGE thanks to Darren McKeigan and everyone at Elite Sport Tan for doing an AMAZING Job with my tan and everyone else they had. You and your team were flawless and extremely professional and made the process incredibly smooth and I cant thank you enough for doing such a stand up job. Im completely overwhelmed with all of the love and support I got during this prep and backstage at the show. I cant wait to compete again and next time Ill bring a bigger and better presentation. I really wanted to show my posing routine tonight but because of my placing I didnt qualify to do so but thats alright because now Ive got lots of time to make it even better. Ive learned so much about myself during this prep and I cant wait to get back into the swing of things and back in the gym to start making improvements. I know what I want to look like now I just need to get the work done. This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and Ive learned so much I can bring forward into every aspect of my life. Thank you again to everyone who helped me along the way and inspired me to run for this goal. I appreciate every single person who said an encouraging word, liked or commented on my photos, answered a question, helped me pass the time while dieting, everything. I have some amazing people in my life and I am so blessed to say so!! Off season starts now! Back to fish and rice tomorrow :D
