I suppose it depends on what you like to eat bro - I would personally engorge myself on sushi but that's only because it's what I tend to miss the most when I'm on a contest diet. I did three back to back shows last year and two of them were a week apart - all I did was eat until I couldn't eat anymore the night after my show (well into the sunlight hours of the next day though - from a sushi bar to a late night bar run for appetizers to IHOP around 2am to Waffle House at around 5am and then I slept until about noon) - after all of that I went right back on my diet and looked just as good if not better for my next show... Good luck and POST PICTURES when you're done - we don't get too many competitors posting here anymore as it is so keep it alive if you can/will....

The diet is not the challenge when doing 2 shows a week apart. The challenge is getting the water off in time.

I would say the meal after the show, and then right back on the diet the next day.

Secondly, you will need to slam at least 3 gals on Sunday & Monday. On Tuesday, cut it to 2, and THEN continue your water depletion. You will absolutely hold water if you don't.

You will probably look better for the 2nd show. However, you're not going to lose size in just a week; especially if you're cheating the Saturday after the first show. That should fill you out. You really just need to be careful on the sodium intake. You will most likely just be more peeled; which will give you the illusion you've lost size.

I'm agree completely here - even amidst my all night binge last year I avoided sodium as much as I possibly could (as well as unnecessary sugars) - I also managed to down about 2 gallons after my show and before I went to sleep the next morning - then I had 3 for the rest of that Sunday cutting everything in half on each subsequent day the following week....
