No Cheats
I went out both Saturday and Sunday nights. From house parties to a football game, food temptation lay all around me. And amazingly, I resisted. Saturday, I went to a bar to celebrate the completion of an exam with a college friend. The owner had provided complimentary nachos with all the fixins and wings along with drinks aplenty. I declined shot after shot, and stayed with my chicken breast mesclun salad with peppers, tomatoes and avocado and water. The next evening I headed to Jersey for the Giants game. After three hours of travel and listening to spectators cry out ‘get those f**kers!’. my blood sugar was also crying out, ‘I’m low, I’m low, time to eat.’ I forgot to pack something and ended up munching on cashews. The protein options were limited to hot dogs and chicken tenders. After a long search around the stadium, I was finally able to locate a chicken breast sandwich which I ate without the bread. I didn’t realize that I could have that much willpower. I am thrilled that I didn’t cheat at all this weekend!

Yes, I am still planning on doing a show. I’ve started not to go out on the weekends. Besides, after all the training and having to get up the next day to do it all over again who has time?
