Bloated! Will be ready soon to clean bulk!
Wow, i am so bloated that i look pregnant! I have been a dang pig, no lie! So deprived, i feel like i’m a feasting bear. I have had all kind of goodies. They taste good, but make me feel really crappy later on with that sluggish feeling. I already miss working out and have been looking at later shows trying to decide on one to do, but yet have a bit of time to bulk. Just how much time is enough to bulk to do another show this year? I want to keep my hourglass shape, but add mass, build the booty up, and build those shoulders up too. My metabolism has been fast throughout my comp prep, never did i think i would have a fast metabolism. I weighed about 113 lbs 1 day out and weighed in this morning (yeah, already stepping on the scale cause i was curious!) and weighing in at 125 lbs. YIKES! I know its a lot of sodium/water bloat. Hoping i don’t do too much damage this week on my body fat. I know its going to go up, but i am wanting to maintain it around 15-17% while bulking. Once i get ready to step back on stage, i want to be around 9-10% body fat, but weighing more then the previous comp. So time to eat up on some good proteins and clean carbs! As long as i’m allowed some cheats, i think i will be fine. Let the journey continue!

Yes, let the journey continue… I am looking forward to seeing what other tricks you have up your comp suits. Enjoy the feast, and then get busy!!!!!

Thanks ladies! I’m almost so ready to get back to a clean bulk diet. This junk food is making me feel really sick and bloated! I miss working out too! I think i’m going to run tonight and do some push ups.

be very very careful on your bulk….it devestated me and I haven’t recovered…I added too many calories back in too quick and my body stored them….
i am sure your trainer will advise…. regardless, enjoy this time!!!
