She's in her mid-40's and posts about struggles with food and such. I guess, a point that can be added to yesterdays blog is that even the best struggle. And for what?
This is her post via facebook:
"Feedback in bullets from this past weekend's competition... All of which I knew going in but it was so helpful to hear it from the panel:
1) Too lean
2) Too vascular
3) Too hard
4) Glutes need work
Like I said, nothing new. I'll write more about it later, and I have been adding a ton of my feelings and pics to my Instagram account (FYI), but I know this time at age 42, I brought my best package y...et to the stage. Getting too lean continues to be an issue. Crazy. But it's the reality. I know my physique has changed a lot in the last few years. I've put on some hard earned muscle which I really really really wanted. I've brought out my lats. I've pulled back my shoulders. I've got round little hamys. I've worked so hard. But on stage, I was like a fish out of water. I stood next to some absolutely beautiful and equally deserving gorgeous figure competitors, and had I been at the judges table, I too would have docked me down and gave higher placements to others. I'm super proud of each of them, and I am still very proud of me. Remember...the journey..."

She struggles just like we do. Albeit at a different level, a struggle nonetheless.
She has a blog that I sometimes read. I used to follow it for the food, but she's changed into a more personal blog about her struggles with getting ready for her competitions, which is perfectly okay, just not something I need to read.
Although, with that said, her blog fits perfectly in my post for yesterday because you can see even the best (and yes, I do think she is one of the best) have their troubles.....so NO judging from the highlight reel people!!
