Ok, how do you post a picture, because that didn't work.

I tried fixing it, but there's something funny about the URL.

Can you save it to your computer and attach it?
Jacquester

I do have one save on my hard drive. The options I see on the posts all want URLs.

I can paste the URL into my browser and the picture comes up - she looks fantastic, btw. The picture is HUGE, though - so you'll have to resize it before you upload.

How to upload:

click on 'reply to post' and scroll down past the white test box. Click on 'manage attachments and then upload from your computer.

Thanks, I'll do that tonight. See, this is what happens when a guy gets on the women's board.

Your wife is adorable. Is she small? She looks tiny...not in a negative way....in a short, lightweight kinda way.

Good luck next week!

She's 5'3 and 3/4" (don't forget the 3/4ths) and a Lightweight
She started at 19% bf @ 130lbs and now is 11% @ 115lbs
Ironically she was the tall one of the lightweight competitors. I'm only 5'5" so it was nice to feel tall for a day.

As a vertically-challenged chica (5'1.5") myself, I can attest to the importance of that 3/4th inch! :p

Wow, she does look great. Shoot some pics from her next show. Is she bitten by the bb bug?

Will do. We'll see about the bug once she gets some food in her.

She's a cutie! Not thick, but looks pretty defined.

I keep coming back to the side chest pose - its probably just a weird picture angle or the background obscures her neck a little, but it looks like her head is coming out of her shoulders... I might suggest throw the chest out a little more (think like same way you would on an incline chest press or lat pulldown) and elongate the neck so there's no chance of looking like she's hunching over. Its just a weird effect that could totally be from the photo, but just wanted to throw that out for the next show.

One thing you'll (she'll ) find after the first time around, is now you have a baseline of "how" you perform on stage / under pressure / in the spotlight. Since the "unknowns" of doing a first show are no longer unknown, its easier to focus on finetuning presentation and being aware of the things you "tend" to do when posing under stress conditions.

I'm really looking forward to next show results & hear her thoughts on the first time vs the second time!

But I did have a blast, and I just may be bitten! I'm really happy with my first, and I can't wait to see the DVD because the whole thing was a blur...I did love the stage though
