So tommorow is the BIG day i have been building up for since January - 5 months of hard slog; times of disappear and at points going totally insane. This has been easily the hardest thing i have ever done in my life. Not only does this affect everyday life but my social life has had a absolute hammering; going out for meals etc has been a nightmare. I will be glad to be when this is over to be a little more relaxed still fairly strict but if out I can have the odd cheeky pint and have a nice meal every once in a while the other half. 
Since yesterday i have been eating a riddiclious amount of carbs (excess 500g) as part of my carb up in total 10 meals a day per day. This is the fun part - they have never tasted so good even simple things like a plain jacket potato taste is amazing. I think I will go into melt down come Friday night when I go for a burger or kebab
As most of you know this will be my first photoshoot opportunity so i am a little apprehensive in what to expect and how the afternoon will pan out. I am consicious i could look better and that i actually should look better with all the effort that has gone into this but i am told this is normal. You always think you could look better - which i suppose is a good thing.
Today is all about getting the carbs in me, resting and water manipulation.
As soon i recieve the shoot pictures i will be putting them on here; i will create a new thread..
Finally I wish to add I have had quiet a few knockbacks from people (gym wise and friends a like) about this which yet again I am told is completely normal but the one person I want to thank is
Steedie – the guy has been nothing but a legend from day one; having someone as support is great who had the knowledge and backing to 1. Understand what its like to go through; 2. To assist with the mind games. 3. Just being able to support me.
The guy is a true gent!
Also a big thanks to everyone who has followed the thread and given postive feedback
cheers guys!
p.s. we are still having a abs showdown at the Expo on Saturday where the student beats the master ( pictures to follow *no hovis)
