Some Things You Just Can’t Control
Well, I wrote about my recent weight gain — and it turns out I have a cyst on my ovary that is pumping out hormones. This would be the reason that I am retaining water & my weight is up 9 lbs. OK maybe some of it is my traveling & cupcake binge - Hahahaha
So I am battling it the best I can with an ultra-strict diet & hopefully I can get down to where I feel lean & mean again. Surprisingly, my abs don’t look too bad, it’s mostly behind me in my A$$!! Since you guys here at Bodyspace voted me into the Top 5 for this Ironman/BB.com contest, I have gotten the motivation that I needed to ‘Kick it up a Notch’. So I will not only TRY to lose this water weight — I WILL!!!
Thanks so much to all of my friends here who give me so much support - you are the BEST!!!!

hey Deb, well I do wish you the best too and get it taken care of ASAP! Wow i can’t believe about a cupcake binge! I barely "pigged out" on wheat thins yesterday after a whole week of no/very low carbs–fruit and veggies- I ate some slowly and it wasn’t the whole box, but I felt sick afterwards that I’m ready to go a whole week clean again! Anyway, yeah getting the layer over my abs is tough but it’s happening day by day right! Take care ok! I’m glad you made it top 5!

I just wanted to drop a line a tell you how amazing you look. I am 43 and recently retired from the military and now have the time to dedicate to my physical fitness goals and find myself in the best shape of my life and like you said it is not about age it is about attitude and I love my attitude - and yours. Keep it up.
