pre contest

**Bodyworks** · 26-04-2006, 07:12 PM

ok, i know i've been neglecting this thread somewhat, but it's recently hit home how busy i am. had i realised this before i began the diet, i would have booked a ticket for the show and been a spectator as usual. but, that said, i have managed to get through it (almost there) and i'm glad i did. as much as i hate dieting, i love bodybuilding more than anything, and this is necessary if ya wanna be a bodybuilder.
As for my progress, it's coming together right on time ( i hope ). This year had a totally different approach. decided to try it the kevin levrone way, take a lay off, then start the diet and training from day one. it's really a new way for me, and i'm surprised at the effect it has had. My weight today is 10lbs less than day one of my diet. usually, i'd drop that in about 10 days. it's taken me 17 weeks. i'm surprised at my weight, i look much tighter and harder than i'd expected to at this weight, and for this reason i cannot predict with any confidence what i'll weigh on the day. luckily, it doesn't matter.
Currently taking in a whopping 60g of carbs a day, but at this point i'd eat grass if that's what it took, so not complaining. Finding it easier to stay motivated recently, maybe cos i know the show's close or maybe cos i've seen the photo's from the other regional qualifiers and i get to peek at the standard this year. all in all, quite happy with how it's going, but still looking forward to a week of eating after the show.
