Sassy, Bunny, Shadow..... Get in here need advice!!!

Okay Guys.... over the past 2 years I feel as if I have learned to listen to my body. As you know my trainer has been giving me these streaks of low-no carb days....which have been mentally & physically challenging but it works!! Anyhow I decided my 1 week of moderate carb up had filled me out and it was time to decarb for another 9 days... so I started yesterday, did a fantastic job....

Well yesterday I my 1 hour of cardio spent the day running around doing errands didnt make it back to the gym but I went out last night and danced my a$$ off!!!! Pretty sure I utilized many calories anyhow had my meals w/ me in my car grilled chick & almonds, well it was time for my second meal of the day 6 whites & 1 oz of peanuts and I decided that I felt a bit lithargic and that it was okay to have 1/4 cup of oatmeal which is about 10 carbs.... still under that 50gram mark well guess what I did??? I went in the pantry and ate half a cereal box probably 2 cups worth of my mom's healthy cereal which consists of corn flakes, dried cranberries & almonds!!!! SHIT!!!!! I ate 2 cups worth which is about 450 calories ( NO MILK JUST DRY) !!!!! But this is weird I am not worried about it!!! Actually after I ate and looked in the mirror my abs starting popping out and the vein that runs from my shoulder down to my forearm started popping out!!! I feel ridiculously full....but I am 4 wks out!!!! Should I worry??? Will I look like shit tomorrow??? Is it okay that I did this at 11:00am in the morning?? And btw I cant even hit the gym today, I am going to a wedding, otherwise I would be running my 5.3 mile trail twice!!!!...lol...

Guys, I trust your opinion the most, should I fret over any of this?? BTW I plan on eating chicken & almonds all day today!!! since I already took in about hhhmmm 90 grams of carbs..

But do you think this will serve as a nice shock to the body??? Should I be concerned????

Need your opinion guys!! Btw this never happened to me last year when I was getting ready, I was so strict w/ the diet and didnt even use condiments on my chick & veggies....

Let me know..

P.S. Damn I am filling out as we I am typing this!!! Shoulders look crazy!!.lol..

Honestly:

1 - nothing can be done at this point

2 - add a little extra cario if you are concerned(Im not)

3 - it wont happen again


...dont worry about it......just remember that any damage form the cals were negated by the extra cario

I'm not Sassy, Bunny or Shadow, but I do know that eating 90g of carbs 4 weeks out from a show will not cause any fat gain. No need to worry, just don't do it again.

Ish ... I agree with S & also, just another example of HOW your body may react to such a carb up ... *take notes* ...

Oh & FYI, Your sig is so cute, but I must have you credit the EF board & Shadow with the "STFU & Train" - (Bunny passing on the good word of EF) or somethin' ... that's where I learn'd it .. spread the word ... and remember...

DO NOT STRESS

for

what's done is done

remove that temptation JUST in case

You do PLENTY cardio as is ...

AND like S said

it wont happen again

Same comment - 1 day in the scope of 30 days can be accommodated. IT defimitely is giving you a idea of what your body will do on the carb up during Peak Week. But now stay focused. At this point you are only eating to FUEL - not accommodate any food cravings so (I don't need to tell u that )

Sounds like its been handled & you are back on track

Hey Guys thank you so much for your comments so let me give you an update as to what happened!!! I looked and still do look freaking amazing, I think my body was dieted down for so long that the small splurge on cereal boosted my metabolism and filled me out!!!! Today I began to reduce the carb intake and I trained w/ my trainer I told him what I did and he said I looked amazing and probably just needed to listen to my body. I do a lot of cardio and this weekend I went out Friday, Sat, & Sunday night and danced the night away!!! I think my body needed to replenish!!! I can not believe how much calories you can burn dancing for 2-3 hours!!!

Anyhow, back on track and mentally stable that is until my low carb eating hits me smack in the face again...

Thx again all and expect pics by this Friday!!!!

xoxo
Ish

Sounds very good -- 2-3 hrs of dancing??? Come on girl! 6 hrs/nite AND THEN off to the after hours club until 10 am!
