22 days...counting days now. Never had a sweet tooth before but all I can think about is cake, suzie q's and twinkies. Had a dream I was about to eat ice cream and waffles and my stepdaughter ate it-woke up mad! dreamed last night it was the morning of the show and I forgot to pull my water out...

gotta love it!!!

^LOL! I experienced the same crazy never-had-a-sweet-tooth cravings all through my prep for my show. Stuff I never craved in my life like sick-sweet cake frosting! And I had the same sorts of dreams, like forgetting to pull my water, some family member raiding the fridge and eating my cheat meal, getting up and going to the gym instead of heading to my show, etc. Glad they were just dreams. Who needs drugs?

22 days out - good luck asmina!

LOL.. It sure did hurt like hell.. I had these little Nike shorts on and I had bruises all the way up my right quad.. haha.. It looked like someone beat my ass! I fell on the right side of my body, so I was sore for days, and my hand was even bleeding everywhere.. and guess what? I was still crazy enough to go do cardio afterwards!! Beauty is pain! I wanted to look good for his show..

Mexican?? Ahhh love it!! I actually tortured myself the night before my last show, and baked an entire dufflebag filled with brownies, cupcakes, redvelvet cake, and cookies.. Stayed up late to bake and as soon as I got off the stage, my friends and family waited for me to finish almost half of the bag before we even went out to eat.

11 days out and I'm in so much pain I have the worst shin splints and can hardly walk. Don't know what to do, I can't get through my cardio. Very discouraged

Beano works for me with any kind of gas.

Okay I need some help/advice, my trainer wants me eating 1 tbsp of peanut b4 bed! Lol ya sounds yummy but I can't stop at 1! It's so weird cause I can control myself with everything else but that :s I'm thinking I should eat something different to avoid the problem ha

7 1/2 weeks out from my 4th show, the North Americans. 1st week of getting back on schedule is such an adjustment! Feeling great though! But I miss peanut butter ALOT! I asked my coach to take peanut butter out. I love these cocoa-roasted almonds from emerald! They are awesome for a sweet fix! That is now my healthy fat source!
