It’s a date

So the date for training camp has officially been set, December 1.  And it just got real.  Its 3 weeks away and I couldn't be more excited.  Or more nervous.  It's a commitment.  Not just the eating, or the training but taking care of me.  I'm good at this in most ways but I'm pretty bad about getting enough sleep.  Which is crucial to good training.  To keep your head right.  To not getting hurt.  For good recovery.  So as the days count down, I'm making adjustments so that I stay right.  But the other reality is my diet. Compared to most people my diet is really good.  But that's not what this is about, it's about being the best I can be not just better than most.  I perform at my best when I stick to low carb, mostly protein and more fat.  What that translates to: lots of meat with moderate amounts of fat, veggies (my carbs) and dairy (and not the low fat bs).  It's pretty easy for me to maintain, of course my kryptonite is sugar which will have to go.  So the roomie and I are preparing, because she's being a fantastic friend and roomie and doing this with me.  So I have a "bucket list" of food to have in the next few weeks: cheese fries from outback, chipotle burrito, lobster roll, pumpkin bread and a batch of raw brownies.  Then I'll be on my best behavior
