Update

Although Lauren has been dealing with bitter defeat, as well as post-competition depression. She doesn't know what to do with herself. She is considering competition again. Her family is not incredibly enthusiastic about it.

Lauren has been enjoying normal food for a week now. She said she was unable to keep down a chocolate and caramel Dairy Queen Blizzard when combined with a veggie and seafood stir fry but her body is readjusting to normal every day solid food.

She looks forward to a vacation in Florida with girlfriends and a few upcoming road races to stay in shape.

She heard through the grape vine that she didn't do well in the competition because she was, quite simply, in the wrong category. Her body was much bigger than the other competitors in the figure division. She might be better suited for bodybuilding in the future.

All she can say right now is, "We'll see!"
