After 3 weeks of being on as low as 1200 kcal a day for 2 weeks straight, my thoughts 💭 was constantly about food and my next meal 🥘

It felt scary, overwhelming and I had so much shame over it knowing that 90% of my thoughts revolved around food

Going into my first bodybuilding competition, I was determined to do whatever it took to get in the leanest version of my but it all backfired once I got off that stage 🏋️‍♀️

The whole time I was posing on stage, I was thinking about all the food I was going to consume straight after the show 😫

This is the binge eating episode I had starting at 2pm that life changing day

2 donuts post show 🍩

1 and half large pizza 🍕

2 more donuts on flinders lane 🍩

Banana bread from Starbucks 🍌

Peanut Butter Nutella Pancakes from pancake parlour 🥞

I put on 4 kgs in a period of 8 hours

That was the beginning of the end…..

For two weeks straight, all I could think about was sugar, pasta, salt & vinegar chips and pizza shapes

Being a personal trainer, I felt like I was going against everything I stood for and for the first time in my life, I was genuinely worried that I developed a food addiction

Looking back now, I’m so glad that I freaking overcame that period of my life because it was so scary to be controlled by food

If this resonates with you in anyway

I want you to know that I UNDERSTAND and that you WILL get THROUGH this
