Many people embark on a weight-loss journey and realize additional health benefits along the way. For me, it was the opposite.
By age 25, I was battling multiple chronic conditions brought on by life stressors and years of poor dietary choices and lifestyle habits. Just before my 30th birthday, I embarked on a journey to improve my health – mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical. That lead to not only healing from ALL of my chronic conditions and removing ALL of the daily medications I had become reliant upon, but also shedding 30 pounds of extra weight and settling into my body’s natural shape - which was lean and mean! By focusing on my health, I had landed in a body I had always dreamed of but never thought possible for me.
Over the years, my mindset slowly shifted from health (which I’d begun to take for granted as it was no longer an everyday struggle), to purely aesthetics. I’d built an incredible body, but I wanted more. I wanted to take it to the next level and enter the bodybuilding space. As I began my journey to the stage, I committed to doing it in a way that was in alignment with my nutritional philosophy. But as my stage date drew nearer, desperation took over. Fearing I wouldn’t be ready, I tried a very restrictive diet in the final weeks that wrecked my digestion and disrupted my body’s natural hormone balance.
After that first show, I fell in love with competing and although I’d already slid into dangerous territory in terms of body image and my relationship with food, I decided the best way to “fix it” would be to start another prep. This time, I brought a friend along, acting as her coach. We grinded it out for 16 weeks and looked incredible when we hit the stage together - I took 4th in my class and she took 3rd in hers, becoming nationally qualified! I felt a sense of pride around what we’d accomplished, but it was at the expense of both of our emotional, mental, and psychological health. Not only had I “done this” to myself, I felt horrible for dragging her down with me. It was a steep climb after that to pull myself back to a place of peace around food, my body, and my mindset. Thank God for placing the right coach in my life at the time to show me the way back (shout out to Brittany Brown and the “Beating Binge Eating Blueprint” program).
