The past four months have been a roller coaster of emotions..I have reached my ultimate goal x2 by walking across that stage as a competitor which was nothing short of amazing! I busted every single excuse to get there and proved that anything is possible... However...unfortunately post show has has proven to be more difficult than I have ever imagined. My body is rebelling, its like a dry sponge soaking everything in its path up and my weight has crept up and up...now 25lbs since June 28th. We believe that this is due to how hard I had to push it to get it to 9/10% body fat and that I have unfortunately thrown it into metabolic failure. I know that this is part of my journey...part of my blessing to help others however I also know when its time to call in the troops. I have done an exhausting amount of research on this and have come to find out that this is the dirty little secret to competition life. So many are suffering from this and are embarrassed and afraid to talk about it. I can completely understand why!! Its truly devastating and heart wrenching...it takes a toll on your mind more than I can even put into words. Its so scary...scary to the point of tears...I am so afraid of going backwards... I can tell you this...my situation was not due to poor dieting or poor coaching...my coach watched my fats, protein and carbs like a hawk, we monitored my mood and my emotions along with my energy levels. We were in tune with how my body was reacting to everything. We were in touch every single day...this unfortunately was just my luck of the draw. I have been working with my physician to determine what is the best route to take. We have added in foods that I havent eaten in some time and have watched how I react to them...most not pretty but I know I have to withstand this. At this time I have determined that I need to get more focused help with someone who understand all of this at a cellular level and I am so very excited that I am going to start working with Official Sagi Kalev to get to the bottom of all of this, to heal my body and to get it to its happy place once again. I tell you this because as you know I am a believer in sharing, a believer in letting others know that they are not alone, a believer in learning from the toughest times in your life. I also am a believer that there are times in your life when you have to humble yourself and ask for HELP! To have faith and to give it all up...and that is exactly what I am doing! Please know that whatever battles you are battling right now...you are not alone! There are people out there who are there to support you, to help you and to love you but YOU have to be the one to ask
