THE LAST SEVEN DAYS

DAY 7

1)HALF ALL CARBS FROM PREVIOUS WEEK.
2)REPLACE CALORIES LOST FROM THE CARBS WITH CALORIES FROM FATS AND PROTEIN. YOU ARE CARB DEPLETING NOT CALORIE DEPLETING.
3)BY THIS TIME YOU SHOULD BE DRINKING ABOUT 8 LITRES OF WATER A DAY.
4)TAKE 2 GRAMS OF VIT-C.
5)KEEP SODIUM (SALT) IN DIET UNTIL 48 HOURS BEFORE YOU STAND ONSTAGE.

DAY 6

SAME AS DAY 7.

DAY 5

SAME AS DAY 6.

DAY 4

1)8 LITRES OF WATER.
2)1 BAKED POTATO EVERY HOUR, FROM WAKING TO BEDTIME.
3)THREE 8oz TURKEY STEAKS FOR DAY'S PROTEIN, NO OTHER PROTEIN TAKEN AT THIS POINT.
4)3 BANANAS FOR INCREASING POTASSIUM LEVELS.
5) TAKE 5 GRAMS OF VIT-C.
6)KEEP IN SODIUM (i.e.-ADD SALT, SEASONING) THIS WILL BE LAST DAY OF KEEPING IN ADDED SODIUM.

DAY 3

1)8-10 LITRES OF WATER.
2)1 BAKED POTATO EVERY ONE AND A HALF HOURS.
3)FOUR-8oz TURKEY STEAKS FOR DAYS PROTEIN.
4)3 BANANAS.
5)7GRAMS VIT-C.

DAY 2

THE DAY BEFORE THE SHOW:
1)8-10 LITRES OF WATER.
2)1 BAKED POTATO EVERY 2 HOURS. STOP THE POTATOS AT NOON ON THIS DAY. YOU SHOULD BE CARBED UP BY NOW, JUST LEAVING THE FINISHING TOUCHES OF DRYING OUT.
3)FROM NOON ALL YOU EAT IS PROTEIN AND BANANAS .EAT AN 8oz TURKEY BREAST EVERY 3 HOURS.
4)10 GRAMS OF VIT-C.
5)LAST THING AT NIGHT HAVE ? POUND (APPROX 225G) OF STEAK.

DAY 1 SHOWDAY

WATER; CUT BACK TO 2 LITRES FOR THE DAY. YOU WILL BE USED TO EXPELLING LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER. THIS MECHANISM WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY AND THEREFORE DRY YOU OUT WHEN YOU REDUCE YOUR WATER INTAKE.
HAVE ? POUND OF FILLET STEAK FOR BREAKFAST, AND THEN AN 8oz TURKEY STEAK EVERY 3 HOURS.
EAT 3 BANANAS THROUGHOUT THE DAY.
TAKE 10GRAMS OF VIT-C
1 HOUR BEFORE GOING ON STAGE DRINK A GLASS OF DRY WHITE WINE (YOU CAN ALSO DO THIS THE NIGHT BEFORE THE SHOW BEFORE BED) THIS ACTS AS A MILD DIURETIC.

I like DPs plan (and I know it is not originally DPs plan hehe) BUT you gotta watch the potassium levels if using a potassium sparing diuretic. The water plan looks great.
I like the carb taper, also.

Looks solid just make minor adjustments based on condition, as you go.

Good luck.
