Too funny!!! That's a whole lotta sugar! I'm sure the thought of what you will be able to eat will keep you going (along with that winning placement of course). Who knows, after the show when you have your mini-binge, maybe it'll kickstart things again and you'll be on stage looking even better than ever for the NAs...especially since you will be asking your body for another 12 weeks of cooperation!
So for coffee - are you drinking it black or have you eliminated it altogether?
By the way, your calves look amazing, Lori. Gorgeous!

Aww thanks Michele! I am so glad you found me here, and it's nice to have you posting on this board!!
Coffee is one of my few "indulgences" if you can call it that. Last year, I kept coffee in with a little splash of skim milk, right up until the final week, pretty much whenever I wanted it. This year, I have one big cup in the morning before my cardio...with a TINY splash of skim (just to cut the bitterness a little) and equal or splenda. Then, if I have any coffee after that first cup, it's black with equal or splenda only. I LOVE Starbucks Americano's, so I usually do one of those with five shots and 2 splendas. I cannot WAIT to have an Iced White Chocolate Mocha Americano!!
I forgot to add to my food list a BIG greasy spoon diner breakfast. That is a necessity!! Bacon, eggs, pancakes, hash, coffee with cream, sausages, waffles, hash browns with cheese, all of the above!! We'll go for one of those after the show for sure!
The plan is for the mini-binge to be VERY mini...like 2-3 days after the NA's. And then about 2 weeks of "down time" - not dieting HARD, but having maybe like 1-2 non-diet meals a day instead of just pigging out, and only one cardio session per day. And then 10 weeks of double cardios and HARD training and dieting for Nationals, if I can handle it!
I weighed 122.0 this morning...4 weeks out! Progress pics hopefully sometime this weekend...
