You've come a long way from all your surgeries. Congrats big time on your collab with Dean Lewis!!!!!! You did AWESOME . I can't wait to see what happens in your future. You are so very talented. I can't wait to see the "One in a Million" movie/pic. I agree with the others. I've been following you for many years now. Your videos have the hard times too.

    What actually draws me to you Whitney, is how you are true to yourself and dare to stay authentic while so many expectations come your way. That testifies incredible strength and it's what distinguishes the good from the great. I hope you will be able to keep to that through all of your dreams. You are talented in many ways.

    Thanks for the video Whit. Well worth the wait. Now the scores make sense. Considering everything you'd gone thru in the previous couple of weeks and the obvious pain you were in all over, you did pretty good, especially on beam. Regardless, I was so proud of you and the way you held it together regardless of your obvious disappointment. You're still a superstar and an awesome gymnast and inspiration. I know being so tall has affected your gymnastics and was part of the reason you didn't do Elite, and I'm sure it frustrates you at times, but just remember, God made you just as you are for a reason. Nice to see Blakely and more of the family making a cameo too. Can't wait to see what you've got coming up. I hope there's some new original songs coming amongst much more fun. Take care Whitney. Enjoy England, Germany and your "One in a Million" premieres and Q &A's. Wish I could be there. 💙💙😉😉

      @@marie3745 yes Georgia Elite Gymnastics is her gym but they don't all do the Elite program. At present I don't think many at all are Elite. Whitney said in an Insta post she didn't do Elite because she was to tall (I think there are limits to the adjustment of apparatus in Elite), but I think it may have also been because of her OCD and 3 elbow surgeries. I believe she would've done really well in Elite if things were different.

    i dont know how you can fake a smile at meets that dont go how you want. I was a competitive baton twirler-my last competition was the 18th and I had never done so bad. It is SO hard to pick up the baton after dropping a trick and not look upset or pissed (especially if it was a trick you did all the time in practice). I have a hard time smiling during the routines as it is, because my anxiety disorder makes me feel sick and light headed the entire time, but when the routine doesn't go how you want, it makes it that much harder. Props to you girly!!

You’re not always going to have your best meet no matter how hard you train. You have to hold your head up high and get back to training and focus on the next meet. I’m so happy you made it for beam. Your amazing! Also I’m a huge boxer fan. I have a boxer named Roo and had 2 prior to him, Rebel and Oscar. Boxers are the best and they are always so excited when you come home to them. Houston is a beautiful boy and so cute and so are you. Keep up the hard work!
