Teresa Giudice Competes in First Bodybuilding Competition: Photos

Hot mama! Teresa Giudice competed in her first bodybuilding competition in New Jersey on Saturday, June 9 — she showed that all of her hard work has paid off!

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star, 46, wore a sparkling purple halterneck bikini as she took to the stage at the NPC South Jersey Bodybuilding Championships in Medford, New Jersey. Boasting a deep tan and perfectly manicured nails, the mom of four revealed her killer abs and toned arms and legs as she competed in the woman’s bikini 40+ category and then she turned around to reveal her pert derriere in a thong bikini bottom. She ended up in third place.

Fans were quick to praise Guidice’s transformation on Twitter. “The queen KILLED her competition today! Flawless. Congratulations @Teresa_Giudice,” one wrote.

“Teresa Giudice bulked up and is ready to beat bitches down! I can’t wait for next season!” wrote another.

“OK now you REALLY wouldn’t want to get in a fight with Teresa Giudice,” commented another while one person suggested a new title for a movie or book about her life: “From Flipping Tables To Pumping Iron: The Teresa Giudice Story.”

One Housewives fan even suggested a Watch What Happens Live special featuring Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Judge, who has been competing in bodybuilding competitions for the past couple of years.
