so this trip has been crazy and i literally haven't stopped since i left madrid. traveling is always tough on my diet and exercise plans, but i've really rallied this time around and have managed to get in every tt workout so far. i even ran stairs for intervals at the hotel i was staying at. i've also made a good effort with my diet and have stuck to my planned eat stop eat days as well. but it definitely requires so much more effort to stay on track when i'm away from home. i leave london in a few days and when i get to vancouver i'm staying with a friend so at least there i'll have access to a kitchen and will be able to cook my own meals. i can't wait!
in other news, i read a very interesting article on the precision nutrition forum about alternative sweeteners...being a big user of stevia, i found this intriguing. you can check it out here: battle of the sweeteners.
also, don't forget that there are only a few days left to join the next turbulence training transformation contest. use the trial offer to get your copy of turbulence training and get your transformation started! the next twelve weeks are going to pass either way, so use the challenge as an accountability tool to help you make some great progress in the meantime.

I love your before and after picture...you look awesome, great job!!
Yes, you'll see me weighing in my 2c there about the sweeteners. Stevioside may be 'natural' as are many things (icing sugar, cocaine) in that it is extracted rather than synthesised, but it is a very highly extracted product. I worked with a company that was trying to prove that stevia was a safe sweetener so that it could be approved for use here in NZ and Aussie. It turns out that although I would consider it safe for most people, except those with low blood pressure, and possibly those with fertility issues, it is definitely not 'inert'. That is why it will probably never be approved for use in foods. The company went with sucralose instead.
