Ive been doing 20 carbs a day for the past 3 days. I still have hair and a lot of tanning to do so my definition will increase. I haven't hit ketosis mode yet (fat burning mode) so this aitkens diet is worrying me i could be losing muscle for my energy(lack there of). heres my plan until my comp.

Theres a few flaws. I dont really know what to do with my water depleting being so low on carbs. hmmmmmmmmm. Its only my first contest tho. Any suggestions welcome. Im going to compete no matter what. I think im in great condition. I think with water. I'll measure it a.s.a.p drink double as much from 2 wednesdays befor my contest. and drink half the ammount from the original figure from the first carb load day. With friday day befor the contest. No water. Tell me what u think about my prep.whether im crazy or just plain stupid or if u think it will work whatever.
