Goodbye to Los Carbos

This upcoming Saturday of January 17th, Anusha & I will have a session with our wedding photographer for our engagement photos. As these pictures will be featured on our website, within our formal invitations, and for my desire to appear as Anusha's (my very fortunate bride to be) groom as opposed to her semi-tan Walrus friend, I will be foregoing carbohydrates (in actuality, limiting daily carb intake to no greater than 30 grams per day) for the next 3.5 days from Wednesday through Saturday afternoon until the photo shoot. Afterwards, don't count on picking up any Apple Fritters at your local Donut King, as they will be fresh out. I am hoping to cut a few pounds of excess water in my system so that my face looks tighter, as opposed to having 2 chins and looking like Multiple Man. Although I love my dear X-Men, since I not getting any royalties from this upcoming May's release of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, I see no need to come in to the shoot on Saturday looking like MM or his slightly larger friend the BLOB.

In regards to my future plan from next Monday (I am going to adhere to a very rigid 5-6 a day meal plan), I am unsure whether I am going to do a more conventional B4L/BFFM approach (Body For Life/Burn The Fat, Feed the Muscle), or Paleolithic approach. Although I greatly favor the Paleo style over the long run, I might be better suited in the short term for a more conventional approach due to conveniance largely due to my complete and utter lack of culinary skill. Although it is rumored I have talent (Anusha swears to this day that I cooked her a delicious 5 course meal, although I equate a meal that is vegetarian to be an oxymoron- yes she is veggie, but not vegan), I do not have patience when it comes to cooking, nor do I need it. The ladies shall do the cooking in the Dip Dawg's household fo' sure. I digressed, and getting back to my original thought line, I will have to decide this upcoming weekend on which plan I shall adhere to (more to follow...).

I will be heading out to the gym in about 2 hours, and will have a Met-Rx after I am done training. That is about 260 calories, which will make my total calories for the day to be about 1760, including about 195 grams of protein. For the next few days starting tomorrow morning, as I previously mentioned, I will drop the carbohydrates to below 30 grams/day. I will also add 2 tablespoon's of Udo's choice per day to my diet, giving my body the essential fatty acids that it needs to function optimally, and look like the sexy beast that I am destined to be at the end of this transformation. See you all manana!
