So I have been on a diet for going on 2 weeks now. My brain after 2 weeks of restriction (and some cheating) that this whole diet stuff is not for me. Now I am not saying I just want to start eating all bad stuff and completely reversing everything I have done. But I was ONLY eating a breakfast of oatmeal and eggwhites, and lunch and dinner was chicken or fish with a green veggie. I mean, I cannot live like that for an extended period and keep my sanity. Competing is not worth my sanity.
What I have decided is to stick with Operation “Fat Smash” for the simple purpose of getting ridiculously hot for my photo shoot and getting my body fat percentage down. I MAY try and wrap my brain around competing again, but for right now that is put on the shelf. I want to be healthy, but I can do that without severely restricting myself. I will still use my blog as a way to track my progress so that it is more applicable for real life folks wanting to be healthy.
A friend of mine who has competed told me that I may get emotional like this, And maybe I will change my mind next week…who knows? But these kinds of things, you are either in it or you are not.

>How did I not know you had a blog? Where has my head been?Anyway, I ain't mad at cha. That is very limited. Is it possible to switch up, like take fish or chicken breast instead of egg whites? And you look marvelous- you will be hot in any photo shoot…
>David used to compete in bodybuilding and I hated his pre-contest diet. It always made him super cranky and then, his body was so hard it was like trying to cuddle a brick wall. But come contest day, he looked great and always won a trophy.If you are only doing it for a photo shoot, then you can always quit after the shoot. Keep the end-goal in mind and do what you think is best for you. You won't disappoint me as long as you are true to yourself.
>Thanks ladies…some people just don't realize how emotionally draining this can sometimes. My game plan…well, I gotta figure it out. Once I do, I will keep everyone posted.
