Hey guys. I am going to my first modeling shoot in NY this weekend. I fly out on Friday the 24th.
I have started cutting my water intake down and my sodium as well. Got some good advice from Beverly international on potassium loading as well.
Here is the problem. I know Im not suppose to have protein shakes the few days prior (only whole food) but I will be in an airport and then a hotel all day friday. I then meet for the photo shoot at 5:45 am Saturday morning. I wont beable to eat clean whole food on friday (the day before!!!!).
Will a pure protien (vpx zero carb) shake and no soduim rice cakes do the trick?
Any advice would be appriciated...Thanks!

what would stop you from taking a cooler of food with you? that's what i do when i travel and it works fine at the airport. most hotels have ice machines on each floor or at least every other floor, so keeping your food cold should not be a problem. the potassium loading is good, also try adding in some dandelion root and b-6. these three were my stack for the night before my show and the day of the show - a natural diuretic stack.

Just make sure you look like your comps or whatever pics the client saw when the booked you, on friday skip diner and go to bed early to keep you from eating. you'll be fine. Who is your shoot with? Good luck

If u wanna look fuller and more defined....dont eat any carbs for 2-3 days (no longer) then work out. Then carb load up the day of the shoot. Your muscles will just soak up those carbs because they are carb deprived at that point. Also 1 hour before the shoot take a shot of vodka...this will make your veins stick out much more. Hope this helps good luck!!

Thanks for the help guys! The shoot went great. It was with Cosmopolitan to answer your question. I did carb load. Worked out perfect!
