I am human, I have doubts, and I have even wanted to cheat during this diet. I tried to justify how I should cheat for the good of the show with all sorts of science on metabolic shift and other nonsense. But what it comes down too, is just suffering. Biting the bullet and doing it right. I never did cheat though. I even thought for a second that maybe with work and prego wife that maybe there is too much on my plate and I should hold off. Well these thoughts were rare and when they popped into my head, I reminded my self how bad I wanted this win and they quickly left. I just have a few more harsh days left then its party time and when this one is over I will be cutting loose. But first I must take care of business.
thanks for reading keep pumping.

Good luck buddy! I went through this as well, its a roller coaster ride. But when I was weighing in at Junior Nationals I was all smiles and joking around and cutting up with people, while everyone else was sooooo serious and uptight!!! I was so loose because I knew I gave it my all and I looked my best ever to date, thats what made me enjoy the show even more and I am sure you will be excited as well , as I was, when you step off that plane and weigh-in, knowing you are gonna rock it !!! Good Luck brother!

You're going to do amazing!! You've got the right attitude, if you do 100%, then you are the winner. I think the judges will see it too!
And now that you're in the final sprint it's too close to have bad thoughts, no time to even think!
