I'm not on a specific food plan. I've just been eating a balanced diet, staying low on calories, avoiding as much sugar as possible and working out for an hour or more each day. I'm trying to make sure (for the most part) that anything I put into my body has some nutritional value, whole grains, lean meats, lots of veggies, etc.
It's not that I really couldn't have the other things while I'm on this diet, but because I HAVE to eat at GG every day, that really cuts into what else I can eat throughout the day from a calorie standpoint. I decided from the beginning, it would just be better to stick to a few basics than to try to change it up a lot.
But I've been pretty extreme since this started. Once the contest ends, I'll go to a more normal and realistic approach that I can maintain for life. I never went into this thinking that what I did for these 2 months would be something I could keep up for very long. I'm just doing what I have to in order to try to win that $10k. LOL
