    Default * updated with pics * Should i try to audition now or wait

    This is my the content of my original post and by request am adding pics so you girls can help me decide if going now would actually be in my best interest.. or waiting to lose more weight.. also if i should stay away from going nude and go topless only or what? thanks so much.. be honest i appreciate it!

    Ok i want to go audition at a couple places.. im debating on waiting or going soon.. also debating on nude or topless please help give me honest opinions ( i wont be offended i will feel you are being helpful) i am 5'2 145lbs so a little overweight im still working on it.. i started at 183 in march 2006 and took a excersise break june-nov in nov i was 166 now 145 the main concern i have is i have these stretch marks some kinda wide and long real low like right above my pubic area and small ones going up to my belly button they are all white blend in with my skin but still visible and some look a little wrinkly if that makes sense. also like 3 on each hip and then some light vertical ones like where my lower back and top of my butt meet.. Also i have had a laporoscopic surgery in 2001 and there is a scar from that that is small but makes like a dent on my lower ab. I know a tummy tuck would take care of the belly ones but i dont have money for that. Does anyone know if these bigger ones shrink as you lose more weight or do they get more wrinkly or what? im concerned about it if anyone knows please let me know.. are there dancers that have stretch marks like this or is just a few ok? My measurements now are 32, 29, 40 my thighs 24" at the thickest part and my calves 15" they have always been kinda big even when i was thin.. i tend to have alot of muscle here like when i flex my leg i have a muscle lump.. makes so its hard to wear certain boots does anyone else have this prob? and is there a way to tone this down? Please any info and opinions appreciated

    you look great...esp in theshorts. I like them better then the thong, and you'd prob feel more confident in them. Dancing itself will help you lose weight and tone up. Start at a small club, maybe dayshift. Somewhere where you arent inimidated by the other girls(not a barbie doll club)....you'll do fine.
    People always ask me, did I ever learn anything when I was a stripper? Yeah, I did. One man plus two beers equals 20 dollars.

    First of all, I wanted to congratulate you on the weight lost so far Keep going, you'll get in great shape in no time!

    Now for my opinion....

    I think it would be in your best interest to continue/start to hit the exercise hard. Keep eating right. Right now, you're still a bit overweight in dancer terms, and dancer world can be cruel. Men and the dancers alike. While there are some bigger dancers, the best you can do is go in there looking your best. I would lose a bit more and tone up, and then go audition. Once you get the job you will lose the rest.

    Another option is getting your start into the stripping world by auditioning at a lower tier club. Many dancers regardless of size have gone this route, and it's not bad. In a lower tier club you can develop your hustle, stage show, and dancer persona while having less pressure than at a medium to high tier club. Once you've been there a couple months you'll lose the rest of the weight you want and get tone, and be experienced enough to roll with the vets in a great club. I want to stress though that don't think this means you need to be sticky figure skinny. I think you are meant to be curvy and that's gorgeous, so once you lose what you think looks great, STOP and just maintain it!

    As far as your stretch marks/ scar goes, try Dermablend makeup. I've heard it's great. You could always wear booty shorts that cover it a bit like you are in your pictures. Black and dark colors are slimming and will look great with your hair. Don't worry, most of us have things we want to cover up, I know I did...

    Once again, this is just my opinion, and I'm sure if you wanted to get auditioned you'd get a job somewhere. You're a beautiful girl, don't be shy

    Go and audition, but be prepared that you may not get hired. Don't take it personally, it can happen to anyone. So if you audition and they dont hire you, try a few other clubs. Keep working out, and keep going back and reauditioning. It may take some time to get hired. The stretch marks shouldn't matter much, I have seen a lot of girls with them, its hard to see them under the dark lights, but what I have seen a lot of girls do is wear a short dress, and when you dance, leave the dress on, but pull the top down to expose your breasts, while hiding your tummy. Or, you can get a corset that covers the tummy, wear a bra, and a skirt, and just remove the bra, leaving the corset on to cover the tummy, but the stretch marks are hard to see under the dark lights, so it shouldnt be to much of a concern. The most important thing, way more important than your looks, is your personality, and your confidance. KNOW your hot, and act like you know it. There is nothing more unattractive than a girl with low confidance. And if you dont believe it yet, fake it! Pretty soon, you'll start believing yoursef. Pretend like your stretch marks don't exist, pretend you have as smooth, flat tummy that you love, walk with your head up, proud of what you look like. That confidance attracts guys like nothing else.

    Don't worry so much about scars. I have a few myself...one that runs all the way down my spine. Anyways, good job on your weight loss, but you should never take an "exercise break". Keep working out consistantly to not only maintain your hard work, but to keep toning up. Search the Body Business forum for some great advice on healthy meal, working out, make-up, clothes...ect...You'll be just fine. If you need any specifics for meals or work out plans, feel free to PM me, I have worked as a personal trainer before and have competed in Bodybuilding/Figure/Fitness shows in the past.

    Thank you for all the replies so far i appreciate the honesty..keep them coming i wanted to add that i wont be going to any upscale clubs there is only one of those in this area anyhow.. i also am 32 yrs old i know some may think thats a little old but i dont feel my age at all and most say i look young im healthy as far as i have never smoked and have only had a drink occasionally lol ok as far as what clubs are around here i know there are some nude places more like bars than clubs IMO pastie clubs and also some topless clubs, i know some do stage only. As far as the excersise break.. yeah im not taking another one lol it was only b/c i was excersising at home to the workout videos and my kids were home for summer so i just stopped.. but 3 weeks ago i joined a fitness club so i wont have to worry about it anymore and i have alot more to workout with there. I have been doing 45 mins of cardio at least 4 days a week but usually 5 on the elliptical for 30 mins treadmil at betweek 3.5-3.7 mph for the other 15 or i take a power cycling class sometimes its 45 mins also and i just stared weight training and strength training when i joined since i didnt have anything like that to work out with here at home.. and even after i am in better shape and working i plan on continuing going to the fitness center, it is a lifestyle change i made not only for losing weight.. as far as eating i have changed my habbits alot i am not on a diet b/c i dont want to go off and gain weight again so i changed the way i eat.. true portion sizes, no fried or fatty foods.. i read labels on everything.. added more veggies etc.. and i count calories and i eat between 1000-1200 and i am always full. It has worked ok enough of my babbling lol

    you could prob get hired now somewhere, but it might not be an ideal club or shift.

    I'd keep at it. I was a size 14 myself once, so I know what it's like.

    I think a tan would be very beneficial to you too.

    I would definitely tan before going in (L'Oreal Sublime Bronze in deep is fab & a couple of coats will make you pretty dark). It looks like you are wearing boots in the shorts pics. The shorts look great, but lose the boots, they will cause legs to look shorter and thicker, you need heels to lenghten and slim (plus they make your ass look perkier).
    Since you are a little thick, I would definitely try day shift if your local club has one. You will drop weight like mad once you start dancing and see definition (esp the legs) that is nearly impossible to achieve through the gym.

    I forgot to add - Your age shouldn't be a problem. I'm 31, & a lot of the ladies on here are around my age, we all do quite well.

    Best of Luck!

    the boots lol.. yeah i wouldnt wear that thong or those shorts (they are just my reg. undergarments) and definetly not the boots.. i wear those with jeans. its funny you noticed them (very observant) they are the only real heals i have and i tried barefood but im only 5'2 and couldnt see enough of me in the pics so i put them on to take the pics just for the height im planning on buying some outfits and shoes when we get our income tax back.. best time for shopping.

    Dont even worry about age..I'm 33 and still going strong! In fact, I just broke into modeling this past year....and who BEGINS modeling at 32 years old??

    Most of the celebs considered the most beautiful women in the world are in their 30's and 40's today.....Thirty is most definatley the new 20!!

    So many girls have the belly stretch marks, men don't even care about that!

    Your a woman and willing to get naked

    The comment about starting day shifts is a great idea, to get the feel of dancing on stage and taking your clothes off, not with all the bitchy barbies watching you, and intimidating you, I know how that is..

    Good luck!

    Oh and i love my pale skin.

    pale skin is a plus for me. I will never put my kin under the fake tanning shit.

    This one girl at my club puts the tanning lotion on, and it looks like she caked orange makeup ALL over her body, EXCEPT her ass crack.

    SO IF YOU DO decide to use those lotions, spread your ass cheeks and lather.

    Hey,
    Just wanted to add my pooka-opinion...
    You are definitely on the right track and have done an AWESOME job so far, wanna emphasize that working hard and slimming down is not easy and you are doing great. You could more than likely get hired at a small club, but like someone up there said - it might not be ideal. Also, like someone else said, the dancer world can be cruel. Im still sniffling over my manager telling me I'd gained too much weight and couldn't work when I wanted until I lost it. *sniffs* So... being as confidence is the name of the game I would say keep up what you are doing now for a little while and tone up a smidge, you should do great as a dancer. As for the stretch marks - they are much less noticeable in the light of the club, but if they make you feel self conscious, dermablend is a miracle worker.
    Good luck!!!!!

    You certainly look younger than your age!

    You will get hired somewhere, but it might not be your first choice club. I would recommend that you wear a waist cincher/garterbelt/cupless corset to cover the tummy; there are lots of sexy ones to wear with stockings and it will automatically give you a signature look. I know that the girls here say no one can see the stretch marks in the club but the ones you have are fairly prominent and I think you would feel more confident feeling like you're presenting the best possible image in the club.

    Congrats on the weight loss so far, and keep up the good work.

    Also, you have a very nice waist and a good fundamental hourglass shape that will only improve.

    Well, firstly you have a pretty face and lovely hair. And you do not look 32!

    1-Keep up the good work losing weight
    2-since your pretty fair skinned try a mystic tan (spray tan) unless you can tan in a bed
    3-wear the shorts theyre cute (not many bodies look good in thongs even when skinny)
    4-use a skin tightening lotion/gel on tummy, dermablend, lots of exfoliation (I also have stretch marks and a little pudge no matter what I do)
    5-treat yourself to some nice makeup/hair styling before you go so you feel good, go in being confident!

    good luck!

    I bet they've been deleted for nudity. Some of them open for me, some of them don't.

    eh stupid photobucket i guess they cancelled my account.. i didnt read tos lol oh well i guess at least it stayed long enough for most of you to see. Glad i made a temp acct just to post them.

    Ok a few of you have mentioned going to a daytime shift but im pretty sure majority if not all the places in this area dont open until 5pm at the earliest.. ive checked many places to see and even if so days would not really work for me b/c my hubby is at work til 4 and he would need to be home with our kids so ive decided based on the opinions i have gotten (thank you all) that i will wait a little longer and just concentrate on my fitness which includes going to the fitness center 4-6 days a week, drinking lots of water and eating well and ill add in some daytime dance practice a couple days a week more for the fitness and just getting used to the extra stress on my body as far as the dancing part im sure i can do that..ill do it at home i have tile floors and plenty of music and mirrors lol When we get our income tax back ill go shopping that way i can spend what i want and get some things and maybe tan a little.. ill see how everything is in a month or 2 its not too long and its not like we're dying for money my hubby works full time.. so it wont be a problem. Maybe by then ill be at a more ideal weight.. you have all been a great help thank you so much.. ill update again in a month and let you all know where i stand and if its any signifigant difference (it better be as hard as ive been working ) ill post more pics when i update hope you all remember me... ill just have to figure out where i can post them without them being deleted for nudity lol. Anyone know a site that allows them?
