Story time (grab popcorn if possible hehe💕) Lately I’ve noticed a lot of competitors come out and confess the detrimental health effects they’ve been facing due to competing. These detriments range from disordered eating to immune disorders, from food intolerances to hormonal imbalances. My heart breaks for the men and women who face these consequences, especially seeing that many decide to compete from a place of positive intention and drive. ✨But these stories don’t shed light on my story. I just want to clarify this to you all.

For those of you who don’t know, I competed in my first and only bikini show in 2016 ⭐️I competed after I recovered from an eating disorder. I was recovered for a full year before I decided to compete. I was and am still fully recovered when I began my prep. Competing did NOTHING to sabotoge my mental health. If anything, having the opportunity to compete gave me an outlet and purpose when I was going through the loss of my brother. I did my show in his honour. ⭐️My prep took an entire YEAR. I wanted to take my time competing to respect my health first and foremost. Slowing the process allowed me to maintain a higher caloric intake closer to my show, maintain muscle mass, and keep my hormones in check. (I never lost my period.) ⭐️As far as calories/macros go, at my final week of prep I was eating 135 carbs with 1-2 high carb days. This is a LOT compared to many women who have prepped. Again, I took things nice and slow. ⭐️If I experienced ANY adverse health effects, I would have stopped my prep all together. I am an advocate of self-love first. If my intentions jeopardize this over-arching value, then competing would be hypocritical and senseless. ⭐️I choose health every single day, including every single day of my show. ⭐️My point in writing this is to shed light on my journey and experience. Competing can have dangerous outcomes but it didn’t for me. From the get go I knew that if I ever competed again, it would be + 2 years. I would NEVER put my body through that process again under such short timing. I value my health way more than a placing or status of conditioning. #selflove #beyondanumber #fightforgrowth
