Hello experts!!!!!!!!!! As most of you propably know I have another show coming after 18 days! There is one thing bothering me though... I feel strange when I touch my skin!!!! I feel kinda empty... you know like a balloon thats lost almost all air... You know what I mean? I took two full days and ate like if I had´nt got any food for days ... and gained almost 5 kg then I started again on my diet... I am now at thesame weight that I was on my last show... though I let my self a treat now and then... I just do extra cardio instead Is it normall to feel like this? I do´nt know how to approach this contest prep since Ivé never done two shows almost in a row..... Sorry I haven´t showed you any pictures of my last show... since they do´t seem to come Thank you all again for your advice and support. Anna Belle

Anna Belle,I have done multiple contests many times.......I do the same thing you do........I eat for a day or two,but I try not to go overboard,then I jump right back on the diet.
I think it`s all in your mind........I would just continue on with my diet,training,and cardio.............at contest time,your mind can make you feel fat,small,skinny,smooth,flat,bloated,or empty.........just stay the course,and you`ll do fine....................go by the mirror.
Good luck............stay focused!! :Rocker Dude:

Anna Belle, I think when you're that depleted and overtrained you can't really listen to yourself anymore. You're kind of outside your body right now. Does that make any sense? Just let you system do it's job and don't trip on what your mind says or feelings that aren't normal (unless they're physical!). Stay the course and you'll be fine. You're on auto pilot right now.
