My laptop is in the crapper……sorry I havent replied or written
OK, probably better that it has though its frustrating to not be able to write. I had a crapload to write after the show and couldnt of course. I came in dead last in my class. I was super effin pissed , mainly because last year, same show one of the judges told me I should try bodybuilding and I lost to a chick with NO muscles, so this year I stayed softer. I get there and all the women are ripped, striated quads, shoulders etc. Oh and they posed with arms way out, not more relaxed like the NPC magazine photos have been showing. So frankly, it may sound not so nice………but Im allowed my opinion and I think I looked the most feminine and after the show several people stopped me to tell me how they were unhappy with the results, so I felt a little better about that. But anywhooooooooo………..dont wanna burn my bridges….but I will not being doing state again next year. I will stick to the New England NPC shows that Dave and Maggie run. I like em better overall.
So, with that being said , I have nationals next month, masters nationals actually. The creme de la creme of "OLD CHICKS". Hehehe. So now that state has screwed with my head……I kinda at a loss as to how I should "come in". I won the jay Cutler masters in may just as I am, so thats pretty much how I guess I will stay….maybe a tiny bit leaner. I do rely on last years winners to see what they might want, but its truly a crap shoot.
I missed a couple days of training. I had my sons graduation to attend and the night before just had some stuff I had to get done at home. The weather has been quite miserable here. I believe its leading me to feel like killing everyone I come across for "lookin at me funny". All it does is rain, rain, rain………must have rained 25 out of thirty days. Cant take it anymore!!!!
I hope everyone has been well. Im trying to answer emails and stuff, but am lucky to get 10 minutes in to the internet a day, so please excuse that. IM STILL HERE!!!!!!

As far as I am concerned (ok, I am a nobody, but I have an opinion!), You look the best by far!!! xo

too bad you didn’t place better…but your training and diet were less focused then for previous competitions. your enhancements were supposed to ‘enhance’ your look not replace effort!!!

Wow! I am in total shock Fern. That makes no sense at ALL???? You looked simply amazing in the photos you posted. Physique, posing, the total package. All I can say is forget it, put it behind you and press on. If anything I would say your placement says something about the judging and the state of figure right now clearly in flux.
