Salt and Sugar Cravings

Where do I begin?  I have so much to say.
 I know it has been awhile since I have posted a blog, or gave you an update on my competition plan.  Well as of today I am 2 weeks out from my first show NEPA Natural.  This is a USBF sanctioned show and I will be competing for my Ms Bikini Pro Card.  Only the first place girl will receive her Pro Card, wish me luck ;)  I am pretty used to the diet now, and can honestly say that it’s not that bad.  Here’s the cool thing, over the past several weeks I  had to limit the types of food I eat.  The way I prepare them, and obviously the amount I could eat.  Well, by doing this I have realized that I am a stress eater ( I turn to food when I get stressed) I have a sweat tooth(really missed the sugar) I was eating way more than I thought I was.  And the biggest surprise was that I no longer crave salt. I have been a salt addict for the past 15 years, I put it on everything.  Now I won’t lie, I do miss my Eziekle Bread and can’t wait to have a slice or two after the show :)
In conclusion, I think I will continue to pass on salt and limit sugar post competition.  I want to enjoy the taste of the food I am putting in my body, not mask if with salt or sugar.

Eat Well to Live Well!!
