Actually I did eat junk food here and there. As long gas I hit my macros, I would time the high sugar foods around my workouts.
It's hard typing everything out on my phone, so I'll answer the diet and schedule questions tonight when I get home.

Hey, would it be super crazy for me to ask what your daily or weekly schedule looks like? It sounds like you made the time by making fitness a priority (and it shows); I'm just looking for what your real-world, day to day looks like.
I'm going to try and do this from my phone. The forum app doesn't work super well on my iPhone.
My workouts were 4 - 5 days a week depending on the time in my prep. Never did cardio over 40 minutes. Total gym time 1.5 - 2 hours per day.
Usually hit he gym after the kids are in bed at 8 - 9pm. Be at the gym until 10 - 12pm. Go home and work or unwind for an hour or two. Wake up at 5:45am do dishes or other chores. 30 minutes fasted cardio closer to show time. Be on my way to work by 7:30am. Work until 5-5:30pm. Get home around 6:00 - 6:30 and repeat.
I drove one of my sons to school 3 days per week. Serve at church every Sunday for about 4-6 hours. Usually some event or errands on Saturday plus a gym day depending on where I am in training. I also run my own business with 8 full-time employees.
Hope that helps!

My diet is pretty simple. I hit my macros across 4-5 meals. Macros depend on where I am in dieting.
Maintenance for me right now would be 225g carbs, 229g protein, and 70g fat.
Towards he end of show prep I was at 230g protein, 40g carbs and 40g fat.
Food choices are anything that fits with he majority being whole foods. This isn't a complete list, but what I turn to he most.
Proteins - Chicken thigh, chicken breast, chicken sausage, ground turkey, lean cuts of beef, whey protein
Carbs - potatoes, yams, whole grain or gluten free pasta, quinoa, whole grain bread, tortilla wraps,
Condiments - hot sauce, lower sugar BBQ sauce, salsa, mustard
Fats - cheese, peanut butter, nuts, animal fats
Other items mostly pre and post workout workouts and non-show times: beef jerky, cupcakes, ice cream, chocolate,
Don't count green fibrous veggies, so you won't see them in my logs
Open for any questions. Eating doesn't have to be boring, but it can be0 -
