In 2018 I coached myself to my very first open class win at an NPC contest, only to let a down regulated metabolism and depression lead to a 30 pound weight gain in just 2 months.
I had NO accountability from a coach during my reverse diet, and I was also going through a HUGE life transition while my husband and I both changed career paths.
Adjusting to my new schedule took away ANY sort of social life I had. I hardly got to see my husband anymore. My hormones were TANKED, causing me to be hungry ALL THE TIME. And it was a perfect storm for depression and emotional eating.
