January 26, 2005: Jeff Probst's Palau pre-game comments on the contestants, from the official S10 CBS site:

"Stephenie's... you know, good looking, athletic, strong. From what she says she's very loyal until you cross her, and then she'll cut your throat. Perfect candidate for Survivor! And let's just hope she lasts a while. Cause she could be fun. And, also, if she could get to the individual part of the game, she's tough. I mean there, there's a lot of guys who'd be afraid to go up against her in a challenge."

January 4, 2005: "My niece described her as extremely athletic, strong and 'ripped almost like a man.' Said she has 'killer abs' for a girl. She also stated that she couldn’t weigh more than 100lbs and is petite and strong...they told him that she lost 14 lbs while she was away. Didn't sound like much to me at first, but considering she is a tiny, muscular girl, who knows?"
