Hey All, I've been a Fitness Instructor for almost 15 years. Last October, I saw my first (in person) Figure show and decided I would do this very show. I've used the past 6-7 months to get the bf down to a good starting point. Right now, I'm at 13.9% w/ calipers and test higher w/ bioimpedence. It's good way to start my 10 week count down!
I'm looking I guess for some cheerleaders and any words of wisdom. Checked out Italian Angel's info and found it very helpful. (thanks!) Just having a rough night tonight and need to keep my spirits up. Job situation isn't working out as I hoped and I usually turn to food. So, I'm here to have a healthier outlet!
Fitday has been great! Wonderful tool... any other hidden gems out there...let me know!

I've got a log on the Journal page of this site. Doin' good and I'll keep my reports there. May need help w/ diet questions as time progresses.
Doing 45-55 carb 15 fat 30-40 protein. Don't know much about precontest diet, water, carb loading and such....

Perfect....help would be great. At my gym, I got a snobby response from one gal that she won't sit w/ me and answer questions unless she designs my eating program. That costs $ and I just wanted some questions answered, not a blown out consultation. Oh well...you have to take this gal w/ a grain of salt! She's helped w/ weights and that's enough. I want to learn how to do this, not be told what to do or eat.

Lately, I've allowed some complex carb at supper b/c I don't want to drop weight too fast. Im at 121 w/13.1% bf. goal is 117 w/ 10%. Totally reachable w/ less than 8 weeks to go! ( I think...)

Yeah, I've got a log but it's mainly used to discuss my mood and what I'm doing for training. I haven't put my diet up there b/c I guess doing Fitday is enough for me. Too much typing everywhere for me! I just wanna keep it simple, I guess!
I really need to cut out the gum chewing here! Looked it up on Fitday and realized how many hidden calories are in even sugarless gums! Crap!
