Caveman eating

Well, i finally decided enough of the crap!!!! I have enlisted the help of a sports nutritionist and plan to use the next 3 months to work out what my body can handle in the way of food, and how i can get to a desired level of body fat and maintain it there without having to struggle. My next goal of competition is October and, although i didn't mind the pre comp diet too much, it was boring and thee should be more to life than chicken,tuna and veggies. I also want to come out the other side of competition with better emotions and eating habits, so i don't have to go through all this again.

For the first 2 weeks of my plan, i am on a sugar detox, purging my body of sugar, yeast, bacteria you name it, it is out of here. Really simple diet, i can eat it if it:

1) flies
2) swims
3) runs
4) is a green veggies
5) is an essential fat.

How hard can that be??? and one of the best parts of it, i am allowed to eat 1 tsp of nut butter, finally, i am allowed to eat peanut butter out of the jar and not feel bad about it!!!

I have followed this protocol for 5 days so far and have decreased by 2kg which is great, i will do measurements at the end of the 2 weeks to see how much body fat has melted away with the sugar and other bad things!

It has left me feeling cleaner, not only in body, but in mind aswell, i have more clarity and more energy and generally feel happier about myself which is great.

I am pretty much healed from surgery now, i have been working out the past couple of weeks, but not hard, just a couple of full body workouts. This week i have been able to get back into training hard which has been great, it feels so much better to be able to walk into a gym and work hard, i am just not very good at doing "light" workouts!
Mind you, the legs are really feeling the heat after yesturdays workout, and i am pretty sure the upper body will feel the same tomorrow! Yes, that feeling of being alive again, i think i have missed it!!!

Now i am back in the swing of things with training, i will endeavour to blog more and keep up to date with goals and progress, who knows, may even get around to adding some photos every once in a while!!!!

Wendy, glad to hear you're feeling better with this new diet already. I too like to leave the gym knowing I worked myself hard.
