Catie had never thought about competing, and then she became a bikini competitor. Catie had been an athlete, and world traveler. No matter where she went, there was a gym, and over time people asked her about competing. This placed an idea in her head, and eventually she went for it.

In this episode we discuss:

• the darker side of dieting and weight loss

• Impact of emotional and physical depravation

• Strategies to manage cravings and social life

• Brain fog

• Why she might want to compete again
