Travel day!!  After waking up every 1 - 2 hours to eat last night, I am starting to look crisp and dry.  I am still peeing every chance I get, but my water is being cut down, down, down, so I am still processing the water, but not putting it in.  By this time tomorrow I should look hard as a rock.

Suprisingly, a calm has come over me since about 7:00pm last night.  I am all packed, my food is all prepared, I am as ready as I can be at this point.  My confidence is even up a little.  I went to bed last night looking at pictures of last years winners going to the overall and it just made me even more confident.  I could have beat any of those guys if they showed up in that same condition this year.  I think my head is in a good place this morning, especailly after having a nice talk with God.

I will not be taking my computer with me, so I will have to type a summary when I return on Sunday.  Here is what is on todays agenda.

Water: Today I will cut down to just over a gallon of water.  I don’t think I have a choice in the matter of taking my water with me on the plane.  Their security will not allow it.  So I will drink distilled until I get in the airport, then I will have to consume as little as possible of bottled water until I get to Washington.

Carbohydrates:  As I mentioned last night was a long night.  Tonight will be no different.  Today I up my carbs by eating the same 7oz servings of potato, but today I eat 15 of them.  I started at 2:00am.  I will continue eating those meals every hour to every two hours until 11pm tonight.  525g of carbs or 2100 calories from carbs

Protein:  I will have either 1 scoop or 1/2 scoop of VP2 with each one of those meals.  Roughly 252g protein or 1004 calories.  I may have to eat the powder with a spoon if I don’t have water on the plane.

Potassium: Today I increase my potassium intake to 2 teaspoons (200mg) every hour.  Again I don’t think security at the airport will let me take my Liquid Potassium so I will take just enough tablets to last me the flight.

Sodium: None except for what is in VP2, 70mg or 735mg
