Do or Die!!!

Hello everyone!!! I am in the final week and it is do or die. No award winning movie has been created without some kind of suspense, and unfortunately I have created a lot of suspense as to whether or not I will make weight. I just got over a food poisoning illness that has set me back a a bit. But no worries, I am going to pull through it and make it happen. I have a little over five days until I weigh in and I am still in a reasonable amount of weight to make it under 160. I am on hyper drive right now and I have cut back my calories even more than before and doubled my cardio. Here is what my day to day outline looks like:

Sun-Fri
Meal 1: Oatmeal (2 packets)
-take all vitamins and suppliments
Meal 2: Protein Shake
Meal 3: Piece of Chicken (4 ounces)
Meal 4: Chicken (4 ouce) and Broccoli (1cup)
Meal 5: Protein Shot

Water intake:
Sun-2.5 gallons
Mon-2 gallons
Tue-1.5gallons
Wed-1gallon
Thur-1gallon(stop drinking at 8:00)
Fri-no water
***Diuretics should continue to get rid of water from my system to drain my water weight. Cross your fingers because this is where I am counting on losing most of my weight.

Cardio: AM/PM 1 hour each (burning over 750 calories each session)

As you can see there are only carbs in my morning meal to supply a good source of energy and enough fiber to flush all protein from prior meals. I will tap in to my protein intake for most of my energy throughout the week and then carb up a lot right after weigh ins so I have total energy for the fight.

This is DO OR DIE because if I don't make weight, I will have to fight at a higher weight class. The higher weight class is 160-175 which will consist of fighters who normally walk around at 190 and cut to make their lower weight class. Don't get me wrong, I am going to fight in this tournament no matter what calss I end up in, but I would highly prefer to fight at a weight class where the odds are more in my favor. For the most part, I will say this already has been an amazing experience and I jut can't wait to get on the mat and make some poor bastard TAP OUT!!!

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso.
