wow, you guys are great, thanks everyone, unlike others I can actually admit that what you guys think is important to me
, any how, will assess everything tonight, cause I really want to come in for mid sept, as my kids go back to school, so my options are this, continue and be where I want in 10 days or take 7 days off my diet and resume back to hardcore dieting in seven days, which might be better, that way I won't even train and can get these 2 stupid jobs out of the way and still be ready well before the 60 day mark.
By getting off the diet, I would add 2 peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches at breakfast, a double patty cheeseburger for lunch with a potato and a steak with rice for dinner on top of my normal diet. this will allow me to stay at 6-7% and then come back to normal.
I meant to reply to this earlier but lost track of time.
my suggestion? get as lean as you possibly can now.
a few reasons for this. your almost there now. if you've never been that low you know how difficult to is to get fat off you've never lost before. the second reason is you'll have a much easier time stripping away that fat in the spring when you do your first show. the third reason is you always look better for some reason the 'next time' you go as low in body fat. you seem to hold greater density and a better over all look the more times you diet back down to that level. the final reason bring, altho this won't be a problem for you but might be for some (like me
) is getting back in the hole once you've got a taste for food again esp after the body has been denied so strictly. it's a sonofabitch for me to be sure. I'd rather stay the course and make sure I get to where I'm going rather than throw an unexpected wrench in things. part of my personality really. I only find challenges in extremes.
so ya, take into consideration the first few points I made. cheers mate.
