Get Ready, Get Set, DIET!

It's finally here; Time to start the 12 week diet for the show. I have done pretty good this off season. That is, until the last two weeks. A trainer told me I have Pre-anticipatory anxiety. Sounds pretty bad, but that probably explains why not only have I been binging on food, but I have been doing it with foods I never typically eat. An example is a donut. I don't eat donuts, so why am I craving it? I think just the mere thought of knowing I couldn't have something even if I wanted it, is driving me to binging. On the positive side, I only did it for 2 wks prior to taking on the diet. Last year I binged for a solid month. SEE, I have made progress. LOL
  I had my body fat done yesterday and I am disappointed by being at 20%. I did it to myself. That does tell me that I was maintaining at around 18% and that is a major change from where my body wanted to stay last year; 21%. I have to get in the zone. I think I am ready. I will post pictures this week and at least every two weeks from here on out. I will also make regular posts, no matter how little I may have to say that day.
  I have already met with the lady who will be making my new suit, I have raised more than half the money so far and am currently working on connections for booking a hotel. Now I need to sit down and write out my workouts for the next week. No "winging" it. I go in knowing exactly what I need to do. This keeps me from robbing myself of a good workout.  Diet is the same way. It will be printed out and the food will be prepared on Sunday. Planning ahead is the only way to prevent yourself from cheating. Oh, and speaking of that, I can have a cheat meal after two weeks. Check back in after Monday, until then, I'm gonna EAT!
