I'm the same way, always looking for a good healthy recipe or spice to jazz things up.
Hopefully if my plan is executed properly I'll come in 20lbs heavier then my last show and more conditioned.

Where there is a will, there is a way. Ha, I've always hated that saying. I've always wanted Megan Fox, I have plenty of will, but there is no way.
Seriously though, I bet you can do it. You set a goal, and if you follow it, you'll find success. Nothing but the best of luck to you.
