I am kicking off the epic, 40 week prep with a drop in carbs.
For the past year I have had a lot of carbs, so this reduction in carbs is a bit of a shock to my system
Nobody panic.
- I have a refeed day.
- We are in the healthy range of macros and calories.
- Joe has a master plan and I am implementing like a dieting maven.
- There will be no killing of Donloree.
I haven’t dieted for a long time…I forgot how focussed it can be.
Buh-bye post workout apple!
Yes. I am the woman that eats cold chicken at 8:30 in the change room.
I have no shame.
To keep me focussed and motivated, I have a new mantra.
What I lack in carbs, I make up for in heart!
Heck, I am even contemplating getting it put on a workout top!
What’s your mantra?

That’s a great mantra! And very true for you! I saw one once that said on the the front ‘Warning! In Contest Prep’ and on the back ‘Watch Your Step’…..
Ok, I need that shirt too! haha!
Love it. Add in that “heart” is made out of protein, and it makes even more sense…
Protein indeed. I wish the heart was made out of nut butter instead. I LOVE nut butter!
I totally want one of those tops!
Haha well I definitely need that shirt
I eat chicken in the locker room too so you’re not alone!
We need to make a club. Chicken eaters unite!
AHAH love the mantra! and AGREEED!
“I hate ________ (insert thing of the day I hate). But I hate fat more.”
For example it may go something like, “I hate plyo lunges. But I hate fat more.”
Or, “I hate not eating peanut butter cups. But I hate fat more.”
