Hey friends! I am feeling so much better now, way less bloated and gross. We are thinking I probably lost my period at this time, I'll keep you updated. I know it seems kind of weird to tell you guys about that stuff, but I think it's extremely important to note that it happens to a lot of girls, especially deep into contest prep. I'm actually extremely surprised it didn't happen earlier because mine has a history of being fickle anyways.
Lots of changes were made mid-week and at the end of the week, check it out! I'm sure you're thinking "OMG she must be so hungry!" Actually, I have not had any hunger issues because I've been eating so much volume food. You really don't have to suffer unnecessarily while dieting or in contest prep. Sure, it may have it's difficult times, but you just have to be smart about it and use a few good dieting strategies. Also, this is the ULTIMATE "first world problem", for real. There are kids starving all over the world and I'm trying to hit my macros so I can do my best in a bikini competition. Perspective. I'll save that post for another day.
