After stalling out on my contest prep diet for a few weeks, I'm now back to seeing some solid progress. My trainer put me on an "extreme carb cycling" meal plan, and it seems to be working for me. I still need to dump 30 pounds or so in the next 9 weeks to be competitive. It was looking pretty grim there for a bit, but if I can maintain what I am now doing, I'll make it!

I guess I had better start working on my tan and my pose routine!!
