6 weeks out.... OCB Natural Indiana

Well... my first show is fast approaching!  Holy Cow!  I had stats checked with Julie this am.  So here is how I done:
  • -4.5 lbs
  • -1% BF 
  • pinches down in all areas (especially in my abs)
While I would have loved to see more BF gone, I still need to be proud of the scale weight and general fat loss.  For some darn reason I focus in on the BF %.  Julie had to remind me, that its just a number and know one knows what your % is on comp day.  Its more of how you look.  I have noticed more changes everyday actually.

So... I was given a cheat meal.  And one would think it would be simple, just take a cheat meal.  I had a whole mental debate if I should/shouldn't take it.  And if I did when.  Well.... I decided to take it today (on my day off, and my carb up day).  I waited until evening and had 1/2 personal pan pizza, 3 bread sticks with sauce, salad, and a piece of white cake (let behind most of the icing).  Well, normally I would woof down everything in front of me cause I never know when I'll get to cheat again.  This time, after a few bites I was over it.  I ate enough to get a taste of something I haven't had in a long time.  And then I was done.  And the best part, I didn't have that "I'm gonna explode" feeling.  And when I was done, I went straight to the gym for my WO.

So my conclusions:  I like the happiness of seeing results from my hard work MORE than the taste of "cheat" foods.
