Weekly Contest Prep Diary

Date: Week ending January 20, 2007
Hi everyone! Welcome to my first weekly update on how my contest preparations are going for the Arnold Amateur figure championships. My skin is tighter and that’s great, I’m leaning out really well so I’m happy. I’ve lost about 5 pounds and my fat percentage is dropping rapidly. I’m so dedicated and determined to look my absolute best and look forward to being a part of this show!!

My training is going well, I’m just a little run down, my energy levels are low this week just because I have cut my carbs in half. I have upped my cardio to two times per day from now until the show to help me pull out even more fat. I also incorporated running into my 2nd cardio session of the day.

Right now with my carbs level down my diet ratios are going to be a little different than normal for now. I’m eating 6 meals, and sometimes I add in a scoop of peanut butter if I am feeling lethargic. Of course every meal has protein in it but here is what I am eating today (Friday) just so you can see a little more and understand it.

1. 4 egg whites and 1 egg yolk with ¼ cup oats (mixed)
2. 1 whey shake with water, no carbs
3. chicken breast, with small sweet potato, veggies and a salad
4. chicken breasts alone with veggies and a salad
5. 1 whey shake with 1 cup farina (separate of course!)
