I know, a lot of carbs today. But I am trying to use up all my food before the trip and will buy a whole load of more suitable foods for next week. The gym was busy even though I went a bit later and got frustrated with the grunters. Feel good for the extra cardio.
I had my results back from the food allergy/intolerance tests. Apparently I need to avoid:
Wheat, cow's milk, cow's milk products (not including whey), pork, oranges, dates, pistachio nuts, peanuts, peanut butter, mushrooms, refined sugars, cocoa, coffee, beer, wine.
No surprise on wheat and dairy, that must be a western world given but some of the others were a surprise. So vodka is safe

though, obviously, alcohol should be avoided at all times.
I'm going out on a limb now

- and remember this is a really big deal for me and my mental strength BUT:
It is 90% likely that I will be going to Treil's show on July 15th (soooooo excited). This is almost 14 weeks away. And I do NOT want to look and feel like this when I meet up with everyone. Bunny's idea of a mini comp has made me think that maybe I should treat the next 3 months as MY competition. Already, as I type, I'm telling myself that I can't do this, mentally I'm too weak. But too late - it's decided. From Tuesday next week (on return from my trip) I start Mermaid's competition diet (no cheats, no alcohol, full training), following Treil in her prep. Cold turkey - fuck the baby steps, they're not working anyway.
Faaaarrrrrkkk me. This is going to be hard

Oh girls, please

me when you can, I really need help with this.
The angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other are in a big fight right now - bugger - go on press submit, you can do it, press submit, do it NOW
