Its not impossible to eat pure foods for a show. last 10 weeks I never touch shakes or bars. why? look at an ingredient list. It contains sugar, dairy or milk powder, some have oils, etc. This is stuff one would never put in ones body for a show diet. Its chicken , fish, turkey and some beef. Pure and simple its very hard but on stage in trunks those who diet will look like they did and those who gave in will look like they did.
