Well marvellous woke up at 3am with my belly on fire and have been puking, daft enought to still do cardio and then tried to eat Turkey and rice for breakfast, went freezing cold started sweating and off to be sick.

Luckily no client meetings so I’ve been able to work from home today, feel like I’ve been kicked in the stomach by a mule.

Am going to try a few ml of aminos in a couple of minutes, hopefully won’t activate my digestive tract – will wait till lunch till I try anymore solids.
Well I look dryer again anyhow; look a bit like one of those day of the dead skulls…

4 days out and on the 3rd day partial deplete, I’m running at 70 - 90 gram per day. I had a 15-hour work day yesterday and ended up missing two meals so hardly ideal but at least I didn’t cheat. I then ended up throwing up at 1am again and slept on the settee so as not to disturb H anymore than I already had. Up at 5:30 for cardio.

Not the best run in I’ve had but all considered I think I’m looking ok, I guess Sunday will tell. I’m going to reefed Friday and Saturday but not go mad as I don’t want to spill over. I’ve not tried this approach before but as I’m driving all over this week with loads of client meetings I don’t think it would be sensible to go for zero carb days as they always make me feel very drained and I’d be worried about driving 400 mile days..

Smile Re: Pikey's progress

Nah knowing my luck recently it would only cause problems.

I’ve been watching sodium intake since starting the partial deplete which basically means drinking only Evian and eating nothing with Sodium in, only white basmati peeled spuds turkey breast etc. I never add salt to any food I prepare anyway and don't eat ready meals etc.

From tomorrow evening I’ll start the carb load with peeled sweet potato which is potassium rich (peeling as I’m assuming there will be some sodium just under the skin as in rice and normal spuds etc) and still drinking only Evian.
Which coupled with half a bottle of very dry white Satrurday evening should leave me pretty dry and a banging head ache as I've not touched a drop for weeks.

Cheers Cal

Re diuretics - they're easy to muck up, can end up very flat, cramping all over or god forbid worse case heart attack. Yep you can also look rock hard and very dry, but there's risks and I don't have the knowledge to feel comfortable.

Talking Re: Pikey's progress

1 day left, started carb loading yesterday, I went to about 300gram and look better for it. Today it’s sweet potato every couple of hours.

We’ve been food shopping this morning; I’ve been fairly restrained and not gone mad with the junk, in the main just bought stuff so each evening we can have a nice non diet meal and a load of crunchy breakfast cereal, which will make a welcome change from porridge. Otherwise I’ll eat pretty clean next week as I want to avoid stomach problems. Was a little less restrained at the butchers but then after weeks of turkey I want some red meat, also couldn't resist a nice big chunk of Black pudding for after the show...

As usual I’ve been lax practising my posing routine so will no doubt be more wooden than a rocking horse. Just need to shave now and apply the first layer of tan.

Good look to everyone competing and especially to Andy my training partner, he’s not competed for about 15 years. He’s got awesome shape and looks ripped and dry I think he’ll take class two and the overall… my prediction anyway. Me I’ll be chuffed if I qualify, then I can focus on layering muscle down over the winter and see if I can break through 100K without looking like Mr Blobby.

And thanks for putting up with me H you're the best!
