pre-judging pics been up at MD since yesterday

no?

[Laura Lee]

pre-judging pics been up at MD since yesterday

no?

I'm not 100% sure but those pictures look like last years photos.  I only say that because they show the competitors in 2 different psoting suits so I figure one is pre-judging and the other is night show.  Lori's pictures are in blue pre-judging suit and then a pink sparkly suit which would be the night show.








Has anyone heard anything from her?  Where's our updates from The Beast?

[michael arvilla]

looks like all the pics are up?

Dave Palumbo said "Lori was the most ripped there but had symmetry issues"

looking at her pics i see great legs!   (genetically narrow shoulder structure tho)
arms and /chest/back  need to be brought up to match the legs is all i can think of
that's just being objective so she can take it to the next level  (if she wants!)

she looked great!!!

Beast had to leave so we will probably not get updates from her  

Yesterday Lori said she had to get up today @ 5am but I haven't heard anything yet today.  Guess I should turn my phone on

Hey guys  

I saw that stella just sent me a text, so I figured I would jump on line while I had a minute and update you!  

Things went really well at prej.  I had fun!  There were only three LWs, and it went very fast.  I wore bright purple for the prej.  I don't think that any pics are online yet, but I am sure they will be shortly.  I heard that I was the most conditioned by far but not the biggest of the LWs, so we shall see what happens.  I had striated quads and glutes, which I never even thought was possible, so I am happy no matter what happens.  I think that I looked my absolute best, and big improvements from last year, so that's about all I can ask for.  Whatever happens from this point forward is fine with me.  

I am resting up for finals now, which start at 5 PM, and FBB is up first, so we should know the results of the classes and the overall by about 7 PM or so.  I have not put together any sort of routine LOL, so I am just going to wing it.  Right now, I am just looking forward to the finals and having a big glass of water.  

The BEAST had a family emergency and had to leave in a hurry, which is unfortunate, but she's here with me in spirit, and I love her and wish her the very best.  She brought me a huge bag of baked goods too, which I am excited about!  

Thanks to all of you for keeping up with the show and my progress, I love you all and appreciate your support.  I can't wait to see some pics myself!!!  

We'll see what the night brings...it's all good.
