[vancouverchick]

hey lisa!! happy preppin!!!:waving: can't wait to see the routine!!!!

16 weeks here we come!! this show is gonna be a good one:awesome: - can't wait!!:D

[Shortie]

How is prep going Lori, you are slacking in your journal. :D

[vancouverchick]

hee hee --- I know - so busy!!! I have lots of girls in the kelowna show this coming weekend --- so they are taking up all of my time!!! Are you going to watch??

I am great!!! It is so much easier prepping now that I was already ready for the arnold and can build and bulk now --- nice to not have to diet at 16 weeks out and eat my way to stage. I won't start dieting hard till about 10 weeks (yet I am always dieting year round anyways - just more clean food and some good cheats!!!!) I am not far off my stage weight - so no need to yet - just working on areas and filling out and tweaking now. I go to ohio to see my trainer at 11 weeks out - and dropped 8 lbs in 3 days last time I was there - so gotta save some dieting till the end and not start too soon!

How are you doing?? How is the diet going??

Can't wait to see your routine -- are you using the same one from swfc?

[Shortie]

Good luck in Kelowna this weekend to your girls, watch out for team fitbody though :D

Training and diet is going great right now, I keep watching the Canadain Nationals DVD for motivation and it's working. I'm looking forward to the show and meeting new people in the industry because I'm still so new to it. Nothing to gain but friends and experience :awesome:

[jphillips17]

Hey Lori! Im stoked that we will be camping together again soon :) Kick some ass on your diet and training so that we can all enjoy a little cheat that weekend !!!

Tell Patti goodluck, im sure she is going to rock the show this weekend!!!

Yes good luck to Team Vancouverchick ;) and Fitbody this weekend! :awesome:

[vancouverchick]

not worried about team fit body or any team for that matter --- my girls are locked, stocked and loaded --- nothing is gonna stop them from taking top spots --- confidence, who needs it when they look THAT GOOD!!! They are ready and have been ready for weeks - now they just have to claim their trophies!

Jason --- can't wait for may --- (well, I can wait for davies to kick my thick off season butt, but can't wait for our cheats!!!!!!) So pumped you and cat are gonna be there (laying on the bootcamp room floor with me!!)

Colleen --- good idea -- watching nationals dvd's --- I have some olympia ones I like to pull out, they always pump me up and keep me motivated.

[powergirl]

post up pics from this weekend when u get some...i still always like to follow my BC roots and the shows there :)

have fun everyone...!

[vancouverchick]

will do ---- kelowna is always a great show --- good turn out for bodybuilding too!!! Sounds like it is shaping up to be a big show!!

[jphillips17]

hey Lori lets do the 8am bootcamp.....NOT!!!!!!!!!!!

[vancouverchick]

I was thinking of volunteering us for the 8am and the noon bootcamp --- kinda brown nose to mike a little --- you in!!! NOT!!!!

[jphillips17]

Sure lets volunteer for 8am, then after doing plate pushes repeatedly with increasing weight ill go lay on the aerobics room floor and rethink that decision. However, I will do both camps if it means you can have your cheatS (yes plural) :)

[vancouverchick]

Yep - not the best idea - I am already having nightmares about it!

[Siouxcountry]

[NYCStrongFox]

Hey Lori. Just watching up here. Nice work at 14.5 weeks out. :awesome: Keep it up. When are you guys going to see Mike? I was there this past weekend. You and Jason crack me up with the bootcamp comments. You deserve a double cheat if you do the 8am...and 12pm if you dare :D

Keep up the great work.

[vancouverchick]

thanks lisa!!! Excited to be backstage with you!!!!!! happy prepping!!!

Jason ---- oh my goodness - yes, I will pm you my number --- I am so nervous you'd think it was me getting on stage sat --- can't wait for Cat ----she is looking so amazing and I will be on the edge of my seat waiting to hear about her big debut!!!!! I am right on my diet -- and dreaming of our kick butt cheat on the sat in ohio!!!!

We are going in may to see mike -- had a blast together last time and are going back as a team for another butt kicking!!! Yep - it was insane - you should have seen our sorry little bodies trying to get up off that bootcamp floor after the 6am workout, we were so dead we had to have a nap back at the house before the 12noon camp --- insane!!! He killed us! I am sure we are in store for more of the same this time around --- but I guess we love the punishment!!! hee hee

Mel - LOL. Wed def did not complete both bootcamps. HAHA one of the girls we were there with the night before had the genious idea that we should do the 8am camp and even suggested doing both. Well while we were sitting there enjoying dinner we agreed to 8, but after a CRAZY chest/leg shaping morning we headed straight to the aerobics room and layed down. I knew that there was no way in hell I was going to be ready in 45 minutes for bootcamp so I asked if anyone else was rethinking the decision about 8am. Of course we were all thinking the same thing, it just took one person bringing the idea up. Steph McDonald went and talked to Mike and like Lori said we went back and took a nap before the noon bootcamp....and of course we still got killed!

Hope you are doin well, will you be at the NY PRO next month? Cat and I are coming up :)

[jphillips17]

[vancouverchick]

thanks Jay --- yep 7 weeks out - feeling good --- things are coming together...... I'll put up 6 weeks out pics when the time comes ----- can't wait to hit the stage again!!! YEAH!!!

[lisak]

Hey Lori! Glad to hear your training is going well! Not long now... 5.5 weeks :) Are you running your spray tan system at the BC's by chance? If you are do you have any spaces left?

[vancouverchick]

hey lisa

no, not doing the spray system --- other than on myself - no time, gotta focus on ME ME ME and the prep for stage -----

you might want to try dawn allison, she has a system and always does a great job..... not sure if Sandra Wickham is spraying, she is always amazing too.

Happy prepping ---- 5 weeks out this sat!!! YEAH!!!

[Ms.Yak]

Hi Lori! Hope your prep is going great. I'll be cheering for ya! :cheerleader:

[vancouverchick]

thanks shel ---- how are you girl??? Was kinda hoping to share backstage again with you at nats --- any chance you are competing??? I know you are super busy with so many other things!!! What's new???

[Ms.Yak]

Just got back from Vegas Lori! It was an awesome little get away because I have just been swamped at the gym lately with clients.

[vancouverchick]

[Ms.Yak]

[vancouverchick]

hee hee --- been in hiding!!!!

She really outdid herself for me --- BLING, BLING baby!!!!!!!

Made it even more real for me that I am 3 weeks out tomorrow!!!! My how time flies!!!!!!

Feeling great --- energy is great - trainer is happy (which is a blessing and hard to do!!! hee hee) - and I look better than ever!!!!! 3 weeks to tweak and perfect, then jump on that stage RUNNING!

Gonna wait on those progress pics and hit this thread with a STAGE SHOT in 3 weeks!!!!

[Siouxcountry]

How big was Provincials last year?

[vancouverchick]

4 height classes - short, medium, medium tall and tall - about 8 girls in each class --- I think it will be about the same if not bigger this year.

Bodybuilding seems to be drawing a TON of guys and gals too --- should be a big show for these classes as well!!!!!

With Nationals (both BB and figure and fitness) falling in Vancouver again this year, many BC competitors will compete and try for that top 5 placing to qualify and compete on home turf.

Can't wait ---- should be an amazing show!
