HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!! Time flew this past year didnt it! wow...so much happened to me last year, and I am so blessed to say that my recovery from my caraccident has gotten somewhat better...never will be 100% back to my old self...but thankful for the range of motion I have gotten back in my neck and back! On a brighter note...I have plans for 2010 that will keep me VERY BUSY! We are preparing for our move to our Florida condo in Oct! Hubby retires Oct 31st and that will be the day we pull out of our NJ home forever!!!! Its going to be bitter sweet, the house goes on the market in early spring and if it seels before the move date...we rent until Oct...no biggy, as we are selling MOST of our furniture and other items, so that move will be quick and easy. As far as my clients I have 3 now that will be competing in bodybuliding! 1 female and 2 males...very excited for them all, my one young client is only 19 and doing his First show!! Actually, he will be doing two local shows! My workouts have changed drastically since the car accident, I have had to "downsize" my body and train with more moderate weights and I LOVE the changes, because I feel much lighter on my feet and like the way I look to boot! I am down to 115lbs right now and cant say I miss the extra weight at all, its MUCH better for my injuries. I have a BIG surprize in store for all of you soon! I am keeping it under wraps a few more months...so Stay Tuned for my BIG NEWS!!!! I can hardly keep it to myself!!! Untill next post..PLEASE feel FREE to email me! I Love hearing from all my fans and friends out there! Thank you for your support! If you have not seen my DVD documentary yet, its for sale in my STORE here on my website! If you want it signed just ask!!
Love and hugs
Have a GREAT New Year! May ALL your dreams come true!! I know mine are!!!

OK, here we are in May already. So much has happened this year, since my last blog MR Nixon , my hubbies dad has gone through so many health issues and needless to say we were the ones who stepped up to the plate and took care of things, because we love him, and felt that nobody else would. We were right...after many days by his side in the hospital and everyday in his rehab I was there to listen to his thoughts and concerns, he became so dear to me in the past few months. Brian and I took him to change his will after he got well enough and we took over his everyday bills and made sure he got to all his Dr appts ect...and as of now, hes home and doing as well as he can. He had 2 weeks in the hospital for bacteria infection and then 2 weeks in rehab to get his strength back and then after being home for one month he decided to get the much needed carodid artery surgery which Brian and I took him to and sat by his side each day afterwards. All the while I have been trying to get better from our car accident back in Dec. 2008. My rehab didnt go so well and after 4 months of terrible pain I decided to take it to another DR. for pain management, epidurals and more MRI's. Well, I am happy to say that 3 days ago I finally started to feel Some pain releif! I had been seeing a chiropractor for 4months and getting nowhere..and for some strange reason after stopping my adjustments, I feel better. I still have pain, but I can now turn my head and take a deep breath! Thank God! And my shoulder MRI was approved for this Monday, so I will keep you posted there.But for now, no need for an epidural! yippee!!!

Brian and I have also been studing for our NFPT personal trainer certification which we finally took our test last Friday and passed!!! So we are both good to go for our Fitness training when we move to Florida in 18 months from now, with his massage theraphy and PT certs he and I are going to make a Great Team! We leave May 18th for 15 days vacation in sunny Florida, while we are there we are going to look into some jobs and scope out the area more:) We are flying because we are both afraid to make that long drive ever again after our car accident. 15 hrs in a car is NO FUN!!! So, next time I blog I will fill you in on our trip to Florida:)

As far as my training goes, I still get to the gym 4 days a week and do my light lifting for rehab and cardio to keep me somewhat lean:) Cant let 25 yrs of hard work Go to Hell completely!! Take care and God bless,
Vicki Nixon IFBB Pro BB
Good Luck to all the ladies who are competing in the NY IFBB Pro show, I decided Not to attend this year, to much to do to prepare for our trip.

Brian and I have also been studing

well here we are in April already! Update on my injuries are: 3 NEW blown disks in my neck and back...causing pain in arms and legs and feet. Good news is I am finally able to do LIGHT weights after 10 weeks of NOTHING!!!! I do cardio 4 days a week and my rehab exercises 3 days...so I am not just sitting around by any means! lol! Besides I am not one to sit still very long anyway...I am always moving!! My rehab is now down to 1 day a week for adjustments and 4 days weights. My headaches FINALLY have slowed down to one a week and not the everyday events I was having. The DR put me on a med about a month ago that helps with migraines...so far its helping. I am excited about our May trip to Florida! We are flying with our dogs with us in the cabin!!! NO MORE DRIVING for us ever again!!!!! The trauma the accident caused me is SO bad..I could NOT drive that far if I wanted to. The cost of us flying with the dogs is 700.00 compared to the 300.00 we used to spend driving...but its going to be well worth it!!! We will be there in 2 hrs instead of 15 hrs!! I will be going to the NY IFBB Pro show on May 16th which is 2 days before we head to Florida. There will be about 20 IFBB Pro ladies competing this yr in NY and I look forward to supporting them all!!!
Until next time, e-mail me! I love hearing from you all!
Stay healthy!

2009-01-16T05:47:00.000-08:00

OK here goes the bad news...yes..more bad news:( Saw the DR yesterday, he says no gym until I am able to recover....I cant stand the thought of more time away from the gym, but I know that I have to do whatever it takes to get better!! My back and neck pain are out of control at this point. So, I will just have to suck it up and focus on getting better and other projects, which I have plenty of right now:) More time for photography and studying for my New personal trainer cert! I cant even help my clients with their workouts...so now all i do is point and count for them:) I will feel like Juliane on the Biggest looser! I may even scream at them! LOL! No, thats not my s style of training.Please Say some prayers for me, I hope to be back to my old self again before to long!I will keep you posted on my progress, I start pt next week...Take care and have a great weekend!

OK here we go!! Christmas was really hard again this year...between the trip itself..a 12 hr drive and the fact we almost didnt make it to my parents home in Hilton Head SC...well let me explain, we were in Dunn NC about half way there when a lady ran a red light and hit us on my side(passenger) going about 50! When she hit us, I saw her coming, I braced!! NOT good! We rolled and then when we came to a stop..finally...the truck caught on fire! We had our two small dogs and all our Christmas gifts and clothes for 16 days in the back of the truck! LONG story short..we got out, both dogs ended up being injured and the firefighters saved our Gifts in the back of the truck!! Everything was very smokey and somethings were wet...but all and all the things were ok. I have to start physical theraphy again along with X-rays and MRI's again!! Hubby is fine! Thank God! Needless to say our vacation turned into a Nightmare..that car accident has changed my life forever!! I have nightmares and cant drive with anyone! I keep seeing and feeling the impact over and over...thank goodness we both had on seat belts!!! They do save you, so Please wear them! On another note..we will Never drive that drive again! We have both agreed to FLY from now on! In two more yrs we will be moving to Florida, so we will have to drive the moving truck once..but thats it! LOL!! NO mORE crazy lond drives for us! I dont understand why people dont pay attention when they are behind the wheel!! The lady who hit us said" I didnt see the light"!!! what!!! She blew by others who were dead stopped!! Stay off the phone, dont eat...dont paly with the radio..and for GOD sakes..DONT TEXT!!! Watch the road!!!

I will keep u posted on things as we move into the New year...I promise you more Blogs and new photos!! This year can only get better..Hope u all had a great Holuday and best of everything to you all in 2009!!!
GOD BLESS

Happy New Year everyone!!
As You know from my last Blog I was going to visit family for several weeks in HH SC and then off to our Florida condo. Well...let me just say this: WOW! WOW! WOW!! It was a emotional, stressful Holiday. I Love my family very much...but there were several events that I must say:BROKE MY HEART"...then on top of that...we get to Florida for some down time and a dear comes out of no where and runs right into our NEW truck!! Yikesss!! I got out to see if the deer was ok and he had the nerve to run away!! Needless to say...he put several nice dents in our truck. But...as the week went on things got better and we did enjoy Florida and didn't want to leave!! It was all and all a very interesting trip to say the least. Glad to be home now...but my Uncle just passed away from stage 4 lung cancer and I fly Back out tomorrow at 6am for Tn. I will be seeing family members that I have not seen in Many yrs! Not the way to see them:(
But..on a more positive note: I see now more than ever how blessed my life is!! My husband and I are so happy with our lives and each other and when we see others struggle..its HARD to understand how they don't try and fix their unhappiness and get things right. I cant explain exactly what I mean due to others feelings and not wanting to say names....Lets just say: Life is to short to be unhappy and unhealthy and NOT really try and do what needs to be done. Making one mistake after another with no thoughts of the future. Some people will NEVER learn. All I can do is continue to pray for them...but they have to want it for themselves... FIRST.
I am still training hard in the gym, working out in Florida and SC was a Blast!! That kept us sain when the stress was high. I was thinking about "DOWNSIZING my physique for a different look...and NOT lift heavy anymore..BUT, Its SO HARD to NOT lift heavy after all these yrs!! I was thinking ok its time to let your body heal and not hit the weights so hard...and that was 2 weeks ago and I still end up busting my ass with weights:)) LOL! Its just the nature of the best:)) Bodybuilding for over half my life seems to be so deep in my blood...My mind wont let go of HEAVY!!
So my dear friends...Heavy it is! One day I will wake up and say: ENOUGH!! But that day has not come yet!! LOL!! Ok, now back to work! Peace and Love to all of you and I want to hear from you all! I always e-mail back!!
God bless

Hey!
I promised you more blogs and here I am again!! Updates: My friend jen who has breast cancer finished her last chemo! She goes to NY on NOV. 28th to have surgery to remove both her breasts and she still maintains a GREAT positive attitude, she is afraid of being "UNDER" but I have a good feeling about her choice to remove Both and that things will be just fine. My other good friend Lori who went through chemo and radiation is doing MUCH better, she still has some bad days here and there..but all and all shes feeling stronger and making progress, shes able to get back into the gym and do her cardio sessions again and I KNOW that will help her BIG TIME, mentally and physically!I am SO proud of both of these women, they are my Hero's. As far as my first time in an off-season in over 5 yrs...things are GREAT!!! I am enjoying my Photography class every Sat. and taking as many photo's as I can during the week to learn more and get more hands on.Lori has helped me several times with my computer Photo shop software...thats where you can create some really Beautiful photo's with what you have already taken. You can make an ugly photo become breath taking in photo shop.As far as my training goes: I am still lifting as heavy as I can and dealing with the knee issue, I know that will Never go away, so I deal with it and I am happy that I can now do free weights with it...nothing crazy like in the past...but at least I can add some weights now. I went from 600lb leg press to 250lb leg press:( But, I will do my best to maintain all my years of hard work. I have a WPW magazine that I was in in 2004 and if anyone wants a signed copy I have about 500 copies!! They are 15.00 each and there is a great article with pics inside as well as a Picture of me on the cover.
My members site will be filling up with ALL NEW 2007 photo shoots from my 2 Pro shows and I think you will really like what you see! I will be adding NEVER seen before OFF-SEASON pics soon, I have never let any photographer shoot me in my off-season before...so this will be a BIG deal to me!! LOL! Hope you all enjoy your Holidays and I will keep you posted on mine.
Love & peace
Vicki Nixon

Hey everyone!
I blogged u a nice long one yesterday and somehow it got deleted!!! So...here I go again...Soo here we are already into Oct.! Fall is here in NJ, the trees are starting to turn and drop their leaves, the days have been sunny and warm still for Oct. for which I am very happy about! I love this time of year, its not to hot in the day and Great cool temps at night for sleeping:) Since I finished my last contest in june I have been rehabing my knee and I just finished Rehab last week. I can now use free weights and I am so glad about that, but I will NEVER be able to go heavy again since both my knees are Bone On Bone. I am just thankful to be able to put off the knee replacement, I am still to young for that! My husband and I are enjoying our off-season, we finally got to go out on our Harleys last weekend!! We did a Charity run and had a blast with another couple (friend) who did the run with us, u can see their pics in my Free gallery. Lori had never been on a motorcycle before, so it was a special day for all of us! Lori has ben thru so much this pasyt year, she had cancer and went thru chemo and radiation and is now in remmission! The treatments shut down her thyroid which has left her weak and struggling again! The Drs put her on new meds to help with that, but each day is still very hard on her, shes a Super women for sure! We also took her to see a few comedians a few weeks ago which was awesome! We all laughed so hard for 2 hrs straight:) Lori and my hubby went with me last Friday to get another tatoo!! I will post pics of that soon in my free gallery as well:) As far as my other little friend/client Jen she has breast cancer at only 24 yrs old!! She just had her LADT chemo yesterday!! Shes doing well, and we are VERY excited to see her get through this and start training her for another Figure show! Theres pics of Jen on my site also. Sunday we did a breast cancer walk and there were over 5,000 people and we raised about a half a million dollors!!! Great day for sure! Please keep BOTH of these amazing ladies in your Prayers!! They both started out as my fitness clients and turned into GREAT friends and they are my Hero's!! Look for more info on them in upcoming blogs:) Well, I Hope u all are having a great year and please keep those e-mails coming!! I will post more blogs and more pics in my free gallery this fall and over the Holidays of my friends and family too. MY DVD is still in the works!! Oh, by the way...my photography class is a third of the way done and I am LOVING IT!! Its hard, but I needed a New challenge after I was done my shows this year to keep me on my toes! As afr as my lifting goes: I am still in the gym 5 days a week..still lifting heavy with the upper body and doing my BEST to saty in great shape! I am on Cams 3 to 4 nights a week still and hope u can join me there soon. Herbiceps & Ftultra.
LOVE & PRAYERS!

Wow, sorry its been so long since my last blog, so many thngs have happened since my last show in NY ..the jan Tana Classic. I have to say: I was hear broken to take the 4th place position..there was only 4 ladies:( Anyway I KNOW that I was in the Best shape of my 23 years in BB and I can take that to the bank:) Since that show on June 23, many things have changed my life..one of my dear clients/friends was told she had breast cancer..at age 24!! I was very blessed to have been training her for several months for her FIRST figure show.She wanted to do 2 shows, one as a warm up & then hit her State Show ( the Delaware East Coast Classic which has gotten pretty big each year it grows.That show is a National qualifier as well.Well let me say this: in all my 23 years as a trainer, I have Never had such a Perfect client! Jen was always bright eyed and eager to learn..she would do anything it took to get into contest shape...shes a Class act all the way.Never complains, always upbeat and Full of energy.When she told me they had found a lump in her breast & wanted to remove it...we were not really concerned at that time, they removed it and she went on to do her first figure show and took 2nd place in a deep class and almost took 1st! I was and still am so very Proud of Jen.Let me tell you, My husband also helped me with Jen from the start..he has a Great eye for what looks good and hes such a sweetie to boot, it nice to have a male point of view, we have both judged several shows in the past.Long story short, Jen came to posing practice with her little bandage on and again had NO complaints about what she was going through, as we prepared her for the Next show. Well several days later I got a phone call and she told me the bad news, she had cancer, I was and still am in shock...my sweet, perfect beautiful figure girl was about to go through the hardest time of her life. I wont go into detail about what shes going through..u can ONLY imagine..BUT after chemo # 3 she STILL remains Positive, strong and Upbeat! She still is walking on her treadmill and eating clean foods. She is a Winner in every respect and she will get through this, she Will be onstage again & she Will kick butt! Please say a prayer for Our friend Jen and look for her to hit the stage again in the future! Thats only one thing that has happened since June, I have so much to tell you & will in my next few blogs. I promise to Blog more often and keep up more updated. Love you all and thank you for all the support you have given me..u are my Rocks and My Sunshine.. God bless you!

It will be showing my knee surgery next and me backstage at the upcoming Jan Tana! Thank you Jan for allowing my Video guy back stage!! That will make my DVD so much better!!

Hello everyone! I am back to my Journaling! I hope the problem is fixed for good now, because I love sharing whats going on in my life with all of you. My little sister had her baby girl this morning at 1am. I got the phone call from my dad at 7:20am :) Very happy that mommy and baby are fine. Congrats to my sister & her family! I am now an Aunt for the 4th & last time:) I have 3 nieces and 1 newphew, they all have blonde hair & blue eyes...wonder if my new niece will as well? Its so hard to tell what they will have when they are so fresh and new:)I saw a surgeon yesterday about my knee, I have a complete tear in my ACL with other knee damage. I need surgery soon, but I have my sights set on the Jan Tana in june in Terry Town NY! I WILL do that show...no matter what!! After that we shall see about the surgery. I took 3rd in my Pro show 4 weeks ago in Sacramento Ca.in the lighweight class. Very happy about that, as I always shoot for top 3. I am now 12 weeks out from my next Pro show where I hope to look even better and place in the top! My dream to win and go to the Olympia would be the best thing that ever happened to me, you just never know, I will think positive and train as hard as I can as I always do and see what happens. I have learned that ANYTHING can & will happen in Bodybuilding!! LOL! Well, its time to head to the gym to train my AM clients and then bang out chest & Tri's myself and do some cardio.
Hope u all keep coming back to my Journal to follow my progress throughout the year...I just love sharing it with you! E-mail me anytime! I love the support!! Thank you all for that!!!
God bless

Well everyone, its been one heck of a year! I did 2 Pro shows and made the prgress on my body that I had wanted to. I just didnt place as high as I had hoped with the better body:( At this level I have decided that: its not about where I place anymore...its that I made it! I stand up there with the same ladies that I have admired for years. i get to become freinds with them and support them as well. It's got to be enough for me now...to just know that I hve made it to the Pro stage:)) Thank all of you for your e-mails and support on my Journey! Without my fans, there would be no reason to push so hard, knowing that you are all behind me makes it worth it! I will continue to perform on the webcams through this year and HOPE to get an ARNOLD invite!! Keep me posted on how you are aLL DOING! lOOK FOR many Members updates this coming year, I di over 20 photo shoots and there will be some amazing stuff in my Members Gallery!!
I am about 3 lbs out from contest weight and my plan is to stay as tight as I can just in case I get the ARNOLD invite:)) If not, my plans are to do the Jan Tana!! Yes, rumors are she is bringing it back!!! Just no date as of yet.
Until next time..
Love & Peace

Well here it is only a few days before I compete in Atlantic City!! Its been one month since I competed in Texas and the time has flown by! I have been so busy with contest prep and Photo shoots that it seems like just yesterday I was saying another month til I am done for the year. I leave this Friday for the contest to get all checked in the Host Hotel and get my Jan Tana tan on!! Sat. is the show, 27 ladies are on the list!! BIGGER class than in Texas!! It will be very intresting to see how I do this time around!! I turned 46 on Sept. 13th and did not get to have any cake for the 3rd year in a row, because I have been dieting for shows each year at this time. But..after Sat. night I WILL have anything I want!! Then on Tuesday after the show I have another shoot with Reg bradford...so I cant go off to much!! Gotta look good & tight for the shoot! I LOVE working with him...he is my favorite photographer, he snaps away and they all turn out AWESOME!! I will have tons of pictures in my "Members Gallery" from all of my shoots this year! I have had 12 shhots in the past month!! Video cilps will also be in there!! If you are in the area this Sat. Please come check out the show!! Atlantic City convention Center!! There is NO figure in this show, so it will move quickly:)) Fitness is in this show, which is so much fun to watch, I love those routines!! Thank you again for all your e-mails and support!!
I Love you all!

Well everyone, here I am back in NJ with a 12th place under my belt from the IFBB Europa Super show in Texas. That judging was really hard to follow, I keep getting e-mails saying that I was much better than 12th place. There were 23 awesome ladies in my class. I did have a great time & met new ladies this year, which makes it very Special! I did several photo shoots that will go into my "Members Gallery" soon. Matter of fact there is some in there as of today!! I am now preparing for Atlantic City on Sept. 23rd! It will be yet another great time!! I can eat after that show!! I have lots of friends that are coming to see me for the first time as a Pro! This will only be my 4th pro show since getting my pro card in 2004. I have 2 more photo shoots lined up before the show! Reg Bradford next weekend and then Mike from Herbiceps also. Thank you all for your e-mails and prayers!! Please keep them coming!! You can see pics of the Europa on www.femuscle.org and Graphicmuscle.com , oh yes and Hardfitness has some great pics too!! I will keep appearing on the webcam all the way up to the shows, so please stop in and say hey and watch me pose!!
Much love

Hey everyone!
Sorry its been so long since I last posted..I am 4 weeks out from the IFBB Europa super Pro show!!I am on target with my conditioning! I saw my trainer Kim Oddo at the Body Rock on the 8th of July, and he was Very happy to sat the least!! I am so ready that he is giving me More foods and less cardio!! Dont want to loose any hard earned muscle!! I am 122lbs today!! 5 lbs more than last year. and its all muscle!! Yehaw! My back is still pretty bad, but I am holding out for that last epidiral...only allowed one more! I finally decided to get down on the floor the other day to practice my posing routine and what a BIG mistake!! I could hardly walk for a week!! But, I will be there on stage if it kills me!! My friend Dave Pulcinella is competing this weekend at the Masters Nationals, he was called out in the top 6 so far, I hope he gets to do his posing routine! They only allow the top 5 to pose at the night show. GO Davey Baby!! Also my friend Angela Sales is in the over 50 class!! You Go Girl! Wish I was there cheering them on! I am doing a lot of photo shoots this year , I have already done 2 at the Body Rock and have 4 lined up for the Europa!! So, I will have tons of New pics and video for my "Members!! Please come check me out on the webcams! I love showing off in the contest season!! Herbiceps.com and ftwebcam & also Amazon muscle webcam. I always post my dates and times on the sites:)) Thank you all for your e-mails of support and kindness!! God bless and take care untill next we time!!

Well here it is already 10 weeks out from my 3rd pro show!! The Europa in Texas again! Its all one weight class this year!! YIKES!!! No good:( But, its going to be great to be onstage again with the best women BB's in the world!! I have survived yet another TUFF week from hell! My lower back where the 2 disks are herniated decided that it was going to give out on me again!! Last Frida I could hardly walk when I got out of bed:( And I had to do LEGS!! Well, as I was doing my 30 reps on the leg press machine my lower back kept locking up with terrible muscle spams!! Needless to say: I did an entire leg workout like that!! Long story short, by Monday I decided I had better go to the pain management Doc again, so he saw me on Wed. and gave me an epidural ...which did not do anything right away....by 12 noon I coud not walk, sit or: do anything but scream with pain....I called him and he said to take some pain meds to enable me to go back to the gym to train my clients that evening...well its been over a week today & I am able to walk and sit with very little pain...but when I wake up & get out of bed...LOOK OUT!! My back freaks out for an hour or so untill i have moved around enough to get to the gym and do my thing. I just Hope & Pray that this year gets better!! I have to get thru Sept. until I can take off time. I am determined to do my Pro shows in August & Sept. If it kills me!! LOL! All through this pain meds withdrawels and lower back going out I have been working with my friend & video man on my DVD Documentary about my life in & out of Bodybuilding...behind the scenes so to speak:) He has captured me on video dropping to the ground in back pain and lots of other intresting situations...this Video is going to Kick ass!! It will be out for sale tis time next year...I will keep you all posted!! Its a MUST see for sure!! Thanks for all your e-mails & support!! Without my fans & friends I would not be so driven & determined:)) Its going to be a VERY intresting year IN FEMALE bODYBUILDING FOR SURE!!Lets hope the changes they have been talking about for yrs will start to happen!! Lets hear it for the little girls!! They have been telling us to "Downsize" for yrs now...lets see what they do with their judging!! Say some prayers for me!! I have to make you all proud this year!! This maybe my last year onstage!!
God bless you all,

Hello everyone! I wanted to let you all know that I am back!! The last 4 weeks were really scary, but I have made it through! I have seen several Doctors since my last "Journal" and they are all surprised at how well I am doing:) I still have high blood pressure & shake a lot, but all & all I am 98% back to my old self:) I only missed one week of gym time! I made my shaky self go to the gym and do whatever I could do to make sure I was keeping my hard earned muscle & my sanity!! LOL! Nothing will stop me from getting on the stage this fall!! I sent my IFBB contracts in and I am 100% commited! I have many photo shoots lined up this year, so there will be MANY awesome updates for my "Members Gallery"!! :) TomNine & I will be shooting a 3 hr. shoot with video clips for you all to see!! Hes an awesome guy & a great photographer to boot!! It looks like the contest this year will be MUCH harder than last year, they have decided to make it ONE weight class!! YIKESSS! That means that I will be the smallest up there, the only Pro that I know of that is a little smaller than me is: Carla Sclotti..not sure of that spelling? She is a tad lighter than me.Anyway..no matter what I will have a great time on stage:) As far a s my injuries go: I am getting epidurals in my neck for the 2 blown disks there, and my lower back is hanging in there:)So, even with 4 blown disks in my spine I WILL Deliver the best shape ever!! That I know for sure!! Thank all of you for your supportive e-mails, you have made me feel stronger & even more determined to kick butt this year!! Thank you!!
Peace & Love to you all:)

Hello everyone!! I have so much going on right now its hard to find where to start!! First of all I am out of the gym for about 2 weeks at least! Sad, but true! Right when I was looking good and full, making great gains in the gym and with my body, but all good things have to come to an end sometime!! I saw a new Doctor about my injuries, I now have 4 blown disks in my back on TOP of the painfull Fibromyalgia!! But this doc wants me off the pain meds that I have been on for 2 yrs!! So as of this past Sat. my detox has begun!! I am in the middle of withdrawels right now, I would not wish this terrible feeling on anyone!! I shake terrible and have bad pain throughout my body, not to mention upset stomach!! I am doing my best to stay focussed!! The doc says I am one tuff chick!! I was on a fentanyl patch for 2 yrs!! And I have been without for 3 days now!! The withdrawels can last up to 2 weeks!! I am so weak I have to think about geeting up for 10 minutes before I actually can!! Then I am so tired and winded that I have to sit back down!! I am telling you this because I want to make people aware what pain meds can do!! This is NO joke!! I am normally an upbeat , fast moving lady with tons of energy, but this has left me weak as a kitten!! So at this point, I am just praying that I can get thru this and live with the pain afterwards!! This to shall pass!! I need to go lay back down now, so please keep me in your prayers and lets hope and pray that I will be back soon and able to do what I need to do to get back on stage this fall!!
All my love & Prayers!

Hi everyone!! Its been a while since my last blog,time is going by so quickly!! Since I am now in my off-season I have been lifting heavier with lower reps, trying to add some size overall. My goal for next year is to have a bit more size, especially in my legs. Because of my 2 herniated disks in my lower back I have to be VERY careful!! That is the main reason I have such a hard time adding over all size to my legs, I think if I can bring up my hamstrings I will look more balanced:)I just got my IFBB Pro show list in the mail and it looks like I will be doing the New Pro show in Atlantic City NJ!!! It will be held on Sept. 22nd & 23rd!!I am soooo happy to see a Pro show so close to my home!! It will be only 1 hr. drive!! Plus, Atlantic City is such a fun place to be as well,right on the beach in Sept.I cant wait to hit the stage again! Last year was a Dream come true for me! To finally stand on the Pro stage with ladies that I had admired for years!! Now that I will have a show close to home I am hoping to see my friends and personal fitness clients out in the audience...that will be such a GREAT help. I love hearing & seeing people I know out there!! It makes such a HUGE differance!!! I want to thank all my fans again for sending me e-mails and chatting with me on the webcams!!! You get me through everyday with your kind words and support!!! I can't do it without all of you!! You are what its All about!!! Please feel free to e-mail me anythime!! I love hearing from you all. Please stop in to herbiceps.com & ftwebcam.com and chat with me!

Hi everyone!! Its soooo good to be back home!! I came in 3rd in the Charlotte Bulk show!!! Yippeee! I got a check!! It was an awesome forst class show!! All ladies got their Own dressing rooms!!! We all felt like stars!!:) It was run so well, I do want to compete in that show again next year!! Charlotte is a very Clean beautiful city. My mom & dad were there to cheer me on and that really took so much stress off of me, just to know that I had them there and hear there voices calling out to me:) Thanks so much Mom & Dad!! After we were done competing on Sat. night I decided to hunt for the good Maragarita....we found one!!! We sat in a Sports Bar and had our drinks and then it was late and time for me to get some long needed rest. The very next morning I had a photo shoot with TomNine, which went very well!! We got some great shots in the hotel area, there were several water falls and very colorfull landscaping all over Charlotte. Sat. afternoon we watched the mens show and then went back for the night show as well, there were some BIG boys !!!! Brach Warren won the mens overall. Sunday I was finally free to have a real cheat meal!!! I had a nice breakfast with the works and then we headed to our Condo in Palm Coast Florida for 7 days, it rained the whole time!! But we got some Christmas shopping done!! After our Florida trip we headed to Hilton head SC to visit my parents for 5 days. It rained there also!! The whole East Coast was wet for the entire 2 weeks!!!! Anyway...I am very happy with the shows that I did and hope to get a little bigger this coming off-season and do even better next year!! Thanks to all my fans and friends who have been there for me!!! I love yall!!

I am back from Texas and did my first Pro show! I came in 7th out of 12 lightweights and I had a BLAST!! It started really bad, we were at the Philadelphia airport on the runway for 3 hrs!! We could'nt takeoff due to weather conditions,so my poor body became somewhat depleted, due to the fact we were on the plane for a total of 6 hrs!! So once I got there I had to start eating right away!! Kim Oddo, my trainrt told me to go eat a BIG chesseburger and yam,,,hey! No problem there!! I hadnt had one in 20 weeks!! Then I had to go to Jan Tna's room and start my tanning process, well afer that I was told to go eat a filet steak and another yam!! YUMMY! But, my poor tummy was Not used to all that food! Kim then told me to keep eating througjout the night whenever I would wake up during the night I would eat some almonds and once I had a rice cake with peanut butter!! So by time I awoke on contest day I was much fuller! I then continued to eat 3 more meals by time I hit the pre-judge stage still trying to fill out my muscles more:) Well, we did the best we could under those cicustances and I came in at 117lbs. Inbetween pre-judge and the evening show all I could do was lay down!! Oh, I also got to meet Gina Davis (very pretty lady) she just turned Pro also, well,,,,she fixed my hair & did my makeup! What an awesome job she did!! She brought a ggod friend with her Carrie Ledford/Baldwin what a sweety she is, and an awesome bodybuilder as well!! Anyway those 2 ladies and me and my hubby had a great time preparing me for the stage, they made me Beatiful!!! Thank you ladies!!! It was such an honor meeting them!! I met sooo many ladies there that made my first show such an awesome time!! You can see the results and some pics on Gene X and femuscle.org has lots of pics!! Now I am one week out from my next show in Charlotte NC! From the I will be going on vacation for 2 weeks, so it will be awhile before I get a chance to write again, but check the internet for results!!! Also when I get home on Oct.17th Colette Nelson and I sre going to really buckel down on my website & get tons of new pics on it!! So please check out my "Members Site"! I promise to make it fantastic!! I got behind on it & everything else while preparing for these shows, but I will catch up soon!! Thanks for you support & well wishes!! Love ya all!! I am off to the gym!!
Lota love,

Wow, its been 4 years since the NY ordeal. 911 was the saddest day I have ever seen so far. God bless us all. Ok, so hows everyone doing? I am 5 days away from The Europa Super Show!! I cant believe its almost here!! I am feeling ready!! I look better than i ever have and want to thank my trainer Kim Oddo for his help!! Yes, for the first time in over 25 shows and 20 yrs. I had a trainer!! Since it is my first Pro show I wanted to be able to just do what somebody told me to do instead of doing the diet and workouts myself, as a trainer myself I have always over trained. I would diet to hard and to long and Kill myself far to much in the gym. Not to say that I didnt train hard and diet hard for this, I just did it in a slower, safer manner. Thanks to all my buddies who have supported me thru this and to my clients, thanks for dealing with me while I have prepared for all my shows and for your understanding....I love you Girls!! I will be doing a photo shoot with Steve Wennerstrom while in Texas and George Legaro's as well. Ok..its time to eat again!! I have to say that since I started on the ftwebcam & Herbiceps.com webcam I have met some really great people!! I am having so much fun with them!! Thanks again to all my fans!! I will do my VERY best at the show next week and I will write in my Journal again soon, to let yall know how I do!!

Well Hello everyone! Its a sunny beautiful day outside and its Sat. I am off from lifting today. Just wanted to fill you in on a few new projects that I have going!! First off, I met Mike from HerBiceps.com and he is one cool guy!! He came to my house and set up a WEBCAM!!! Yes, I will be going LIVE soon!!! I will fill you in on details when its up and running! You will be able to log on and chat with me and ask me to pose for you ect...it will be VERY up close & personal, I am very excited about it!! And I will be a regular on HerBiceps.com, so please check out my Profile and upcoming video clips!! You will be able to purchase clips and pics on my website soon!! Now about my contest prep....I am right on target, my weight is at 121.6 this morning and I am still feeling pretty strong in the gym, sometimes as we bodybuilders "Diet Down" we start to lose strength, but so far so good!! My trainer Kim Oddo has me taking all kinds of supplements to help keep that from happening. I am up to about 26 pills a day!! Well its time for me to get some things done around here, oh by the way.....I did get my posing suits ordered!! They are going to be awesome! Now its time to start my posing routine!! I will feel 100% more relaxed when I get that done so that I will have the next 2 months to practice. Please keep those e-mails coming!!! They LIFT me up :) Keep checking back for the upcoming news!!
In Health,
Peace & Love,

Hi everyone! It has been awhile since I last wrote, I am very busy with my clients and training myself. I am really excited about hiring Kim Oddo as my trainer!!! Yeap, a trainer with a trainer!!!I have never had a trainer in my life!! But as I get closer to my 1st Pro show I find that I need less stress and more help! I want to be able to concentrate on my clients workouts which I change everyweek, and besides that I really wanted to try a new way of dieting!! Kim has sent me my new workouts and my diet plan for the next couple weeks and that will change as time goes on. Kim is Monica Brants trainer and I think that Monica is the "BOMB! So I feel very comfortable with my body in his hands..so to speak! LOL! He lives in California, so we have weekly phone calls and e-mails to keep things rolling, plus I have to send him photo's everyweek to track my progress.That made me go out and buy a new digital camera and my buddy came over and helped me learn how to send them via E-mail.Now I can finally send pics over the internet. I am also getting ready to leave on vacation next week! We will be in Florida for 2 weeks!! I need to unwind and relax before I hit that 20 week out mark. Sun & sand, thats my perfect vacation!! Our condo in right on the beach. Thank you all for your e-mails and constant support!! I love you all!! You keep me going!! I will write again when I get back and let you know how things went. I will hit the gym down there for a few days.....Kim said to relax for a week and get ready to Rock when I get back. Take good care & Stay healthy!
Peace & Love,
Vick:)

Hi everyone!Well the snow has almost melted here in NJ and I hope that we have seen the last of it for this year!! I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know alls well! My knee feels a little better, I am still able to do my legs pretty heavy, not as much as I would like..but still hopefully good enough to put on some size. My weight is up to 125 now....which by the way is light for a Pro, but I can only do so much.LOL! Most female Pro's come in between 125 and 135 (lightweights!) But, I will be lucky to come in at 118!! I can promise you that I will improve since my Overall Team Universe win last August!! I will keep you posted on my progress monthly , so keep stopping in!!
Peace & Love,

Hi there! I have some new stuff going on my website today!! I updated my 2005 apperances and added new info to my Home page. And its SNOWING again here in NJ.....we are going to get up to 10 inches they say. I had 2 clients call out with surgeries here lately and I want to wish them both Speedy recoveries!! I miss you both! I went to the Dr. yesterday to see about working around these darn injuries and he adjusted me somewhat, he stated that I was a mess! LOL! Nothing that I did not already know :) But I am still training my butt off!! I have finally started to see some good size gains, so I must be doing something right! :) I have been getting more e-mail here lately and I sure do enjoy hearing from you so...PLEASE keep them coming! I sure will be glad when Spring comes! I love getting outdoors and being in the warm sunshine. I am a Beach freak, so summer is MY favorite time. It looks like I need to go get the shovel now, its getting pretty deep and I have to get out for a PM client soon. I drive a "Mustang and they are not good in snow.Take care & Keep those e-mails coming!!

Happy Valentines Day! Hope this finds you all well. I am still busy working on our new home, homes are a never ending project. Which I don't mind at all, its fun to transform rooms into a comfortable, fun living space. I think that I have been watching to many home design shows, LOL! If you are anywhere near Wilmington Delaware in April I will be working at the Vitiman Shoppe's every Sat. displaying Labrada Products and handing out "samples". Yummy stuff! I will remind you closer to the dates. Well I am training like an animal for the Pro stage in Sept. but I have been working around some really bad injuries, not enough to knock me out of the game yet!! I have 2 herniated disks and severe tendonitus in both elbows which makes Bicep workouts VERY painful!! I somehow injuried my knee at my mom's and dads at Christmas which has gotten really bad! I think that I tore my meniscus, BUT I will not give in! I have to make my Pro debut this year!!! Please say a prayer for me!! I will BOP til I drop! LOL! I hope that you can come out and support me in Sept. I love the roar of a good crowd, and you fans make it all worth wild!! Thank you for that. I guess its time to hit the gym again, I have 2 clients tonight. Until next time........Peace & Love to you all!!

Thank God its Friday! I have 2 clients out this week, one had foot surgery done and the other one had an overnight stay in the hospital with minor female surgery. I want to say "GET WELL to both of them! They both are awesome ladies and workout really hard when they are with me and I love them both. Get back with me ASAP!! On another note its still cold as heck here in NJ and we may see more snow in the next few days. I got stuck last week in the gym parking lot and had 2 male friends come push me out...very stressful! Mustangs do NOT do well in the snow & ice. I will be spending my weekend training hard and doing some shopping in Delaware for more Home goods :) I love to shop!!

Hi there! Its snowing here in NJ and BOY its cold!! I was training a client this morning at the gym and it started, we both were really happy to see it because we had both been wanting a little snow. It snowed enough to cover the ground and it looks really pretty.It didn't stop any of my clients from doing their sessions!! We are supposed to get more this weekend!! I love snow as long as its not to much to mess up driving, because I am NOT one to stay in longer than one day!!Wow..its hard to believe its almost the end of Jan.already!!! Our new home is looking really nice! We went and picked up our new furniture yesterday, and I bought new curtains and really warmed the place up :) I am training hard everyday and dealing with really BAD tendonitus in Both elbows....OUCH!!! I need to get back to my Dr. and get a few more injections. Until then I will just suck it up and do what I can. Its getting late and I need some serious sleep, I got NONE last night, my husband has a sleeping disorder which makes him jerk around in his sleep, we really need to get him some meds for that!! I don't know how he sleeps!! He is on midnights now and I will sleep much better tonight! Take good care and I will get back to you in a few days!

Ok everyone,its 2 days before Christmas! I hope that you have all finished shopping! Our vacation has proved to be very interesting so far. Today I went to the gym here on the Island and spent 2 hrs. training Chest & Biceps, and 45 minutes of cardio.When I arrived back at my parents we discovered Jackson(2 yr. old nephew) had decided to color my dads floor with black magic marker!! The carpet is really messed up! Needless to say, my poor dad is now trying to get "Permanent Marker out of the carpet!! YIKES!Not a good day for him!!My husband and I have no kids and at this point in our lives we are OK with that!! LOL!The weather here is around 70, which is a far cry from NJ!!!We will be heading to Palm Coast Florida on Sunday and staying there for 5 days.Tomorrow will be my last workout here on the Island, but my hubby and I will be working out everyday in Florida! Well, it's time to go chill out until dinner.Have a great day and I will talk at yall again soon!!

And if you are into Golf thats your kind of place for sure!!I keep saying some day I want to give it a try, but for now I will just keep hitting the weights!! LOL!I do plan to take the stage next year "2005" for the very first time as an IFBB Pro. As of right now I have my sights set on a Sept. show thats going to be held in Texas, its called the "EUROPA" and I will be training like an animal all winter & doing my best to improve my physique, hopfully putting on some size.At 44 yrs. of age I feel that I am far from my peak, thats the greatest thing about bodybuilding, you ONLY get better with age!!!!:)
So theres no rest for the weary, I really want to get on that PRO stage! Its kind of scarey actually, to think that I will be up there with the best in the world!! But its VERY motivating!! So stay tuned, I will keep you posted on my daily happenings inside and outside the gym!Thank you all so much for your support this past year!!! It was one heck of a ride and it paid off!! BIG TIME!!
Peace & Love,
Vicki
