Your body will reject anything trying to hurt it and my body was doing exactly what it was made to do. When I was cleansed, my skin was clear, I was sleeping better, mood was up and up. Huge difference, now that I am fully back on the plan, (which few of my friends are on it with me for shits and giggles..), since they want to enjoy having a nice healthy body as well as the cosmetic reasons, who wouldn't want to be sexy for the summer? You be lying if you said you didn't.
My last prep I had a few work trips, which normally suck since working with coworkers, that literally eat until they burst, makes for more a challenge, but I have learned to head to the store wherever I am, carry my lovely thermal bag and have a "balance". Sure I will have a cookie, but I am not going to have 20. That's the difference. Do I have cravings? Sure. But the natural high is truly like anything else I have ever had.
Workout wise, I am lifting a little bit differently, heavier on back and shoulders, since I am doing figure. My coach is going to lend me this amazing suit, which I cannot WAIT to wear and I have been working on posing. Its a little bit different than bikini division, but I feel I will be better in this one since honestly I am not a "girly girl" by any means and as much as I like flaunting my $hit, I don't wear dresses, heels or any of those things, so the bikini posing and strut really was not my thing. I am a more of down to business, wearing my boots, Levi's, tight tank kind of chick. And I love that.
Its Friday - Leg day and its an hour workout later on. Yes, Friday night, workout. Its also Valentines Day weekend, which I guess would mean something to some? But really its a HUGE get your ass to work weekend for me and hoping to get some double sets in to keep my mind and body clear and ready to go.
