19.

I was 19 then. And I mean, maybe it would have worked if I committed to it. But anyway, the point was, I didn't know what I was doing. I was with this lad who had never trained a girl before. He was a bodybuilder himself, but he was a giant man. And a giant, giant man and who had done many competitions. And he was training me and my diet, then my diet was all over the place.

And then he put me onto this other guy who gave me this other diet, which then I just became a messiah. And I was trying to wrestle around Japan and all this stuff.

body was just hurting but like I was loving how I looked in the mirror because I had these abs and I was like disciplined and my focus was what I was going to eat and how I was going to train and like I had this then sense of ego like like look at how disciplined I can be I am so much better than everybody because I have this discipline but ultimately I was like dying on the inside because I had no energy hmm

My moods were all over the place. I was like leering at cookbooks of what I was going to eat when this diet finished. And ultimately I ended up not being able to make it past 10 weeks of this diet. There was two more weeks to the competition. I just... The guy who was trying to me suggested a cheat meal, and that was it. Then I just went completely off the rails and couldn't get back on. Wow.

And then that then became an unhealthy relationship with food for years.

Really?

Really?

Years and years and years, completely destroyed how I looked at myself and everything like that and how I valued myself.

Years and years and years, completely destroyed how I looked at myself and everything like that and how I valued myself.

on how I looked. From somebody who had gone from valuing myself on my substance and what I brought to the table in terms of wrestling and my craft, I was then just now, I was just conforming to what I thought thought they wanted and what society wanted. But by then, then I was like, I don't even know if I want to wrestle anymore. Maybe that dream is over.

It's time to be realistic and get a real job. Then I ended up being a flight attendant.
