almonds- GET RAW ALMONDS. a handfull or so per day. you need "Good" fats. natural peanut butter-NO ADDITIVES. FLAX oil. drop the peanuts man.

Holy Sh*t.......thats like 1200 calories a day. I think starving samolians get more nutrition than this. Out of curiousity, who or where did you obtain this diet from? ANd how exactly are you feeling following this diet? Famished, light headed, lethargic????Also, i believe you should be doing cardio everyday at this point. Good luck. I think you arer behind, but will look descent at your show. I take it this is your first? The first one is always a learning experience. Take what you learned from this one and figue out what went wrong and apply it to future comps. Good luck.

[vicious cycle]
