But if it was only like a pound you could use the bathroom and stuff
and maybe make it?? But you would have to be under to begin with
to factor a tolerance between scale accuracy -

Hahahahaha. Awesome idea. Take some ex-lax too. Not to make weight, but just for shits and giggles.
so are u completely done with bodybuilding and its competitions?
Okay, just got done helping the coach set up for tomorrows meet. I am beat! I weighed 77.8kg this AM. That is .8kg heavy. I drop all carbs today. I have barely ate anything. I am fucking tired and feel weak. Also, end of the day I weighed 174.2!! I hate the end of day weight gain. We shall see tomorrow. I told the coach never again though. I feel like crap. I look like crap. I feel weak and shitty. I hope I can hold it together tomorrow. I am never dieting into the 77's. I will instead get heavier into the 85kgs, back up to a more normal 180-185lbs (I'll go slow so I don't put on to much fat). Even though it is a tougher weight class with my weight gain will come strength gain as well.
Another cool thing was the meet is being put on by Artie Dreshler, the author of The Weightlifting Encyclopedia! he was my coaches coach. He was really cool to meet. I got there a half an hour early and got to talk "shop" with him a little bit. He was telling me how when my coach first came to him his form was terrible because he had a coach that was just about "going heavy" and not about learning good technique. So he had a lot of flaws to work around. He was talking about how training lighter and working on form will be more beneficial because the strength will be there and it will come. If your technique is bad you will miss lifts that you should make, risk injury and most importantly not feel confidant when you go to perform your lifts which will make you unsure and usually miss the weight (I am usually not very confident in my technique like he was describing). Anyway, it was just really cool to meet him and talk to him. Totally cool guy.

Wow, very cool sounding - 
Sounds like an awesome experience meeting that coach. Also, I think you're more suited to olympic lifting than bodybuilding anyway. Bodybuilding just doesn't seem to fit your personality, or at least what I can gather from it.
Pssttt........I saw it in the store today 
AM weight- 76.8lbs 
No food until after weigh in. Gonna drink 2 cups of coffe and take and extremely hot hot shower to sweat out more weight. Going to wear sweat pants and a long sleeve shirt on the subway to sweat more. Going to spit as much spit as I can into an empty bottle and going to do jumping jacks and some squatting before I weigh in just to drop water. I hate being this close!!

Good luck sir. Smash some PRs on that platform!

Contest Day!!
Sweating it out worked. I dropped enough water to make the 77kg class. I weighed in at 76.86 (169.092). Imediatly after weigh in I pounded gatorade and ate bagels. I felt fine after that. Okay, on to the lifting. I wasn't totally pissed about my lifting but I wasn't totally happy. I went 4 for 6. I placed 4th in the 77kg class. As it turns out dropping weight didn't help me since some of the best lifters in the house were at this meet. The three guys that beet me were all national competitors and were friggin awesome!! Guys hitting 155kg clean and jerks at 77kg. My coach was like "I think you screwed yourself. If you stayed as an 85 you would have had 3rd with your lifts! After further examination wer found that I would have also placed 4th in the 85's..lol, so much for dieting down. The 85s was another amazing class. There were a number of nationaly ranked lifters in the house today. In the 85s fatih baydar hit a 140kg snatch and a 170kg Clean and jerk!!! All without training for the past two months. He is from turkey and just moved to NYC this summer. He trained with the turkish national team which is were e learned his lifting. He is pretty friggin amazing! He hadn't trained for 2 months because he has been working to make money. His form is sick. In the 105+ class Matt Rue cleaned 190kgs but couldn't jerk it. Still a great lift. Okay, on to my lifts. I opened with an easy 70kg snatch (power snatched it). My second attempt was a 77.5kg snatch. Also easy. For my third attempt I went for a PB 82.5kg snatch. I missed it out front. My technique still needs work. I didn't drop down under it enough. Even though 77.5kgs is not a persoanl best it is a contest best so that is okay. I opened my clean and jerks with a very easy 100kgs. Next I took 107.5. The bar got a little in front of me. I was called for an elbow touch (elbow touches the knee in the front squat position) as I was saving the lift. I saved it and jerked it but still got a now lift. I had the option of taking it again but it was easy so I increased to 110kgs for my final clean and jerk. Light as a feather I crushed it. I have hit 110 in practice but it is a new contest best. I am pissed that I missed 82.5 in my snatch as it was right there for the taking. I am also pissed about that elbow touched because if I hit that lift cleanly I would have probably jumped up to 112.5 for my third attempt. Oh well. Slowly I am moving up and getting better. Time to start training for the next meet!

= One step closer

oh yeah. I don't know whether to try and stay in the 77kg class or go up to the 85kg class since i am so close to both. My coach says that it will make a difference when we are at the metropolitan meet in oct. We'll see. Still gotta work on my form and getting better positioning.
Great job P-Fizzle.
thanks guys. I can't wait to be putting up some good weight. The best lifter on our team is Fatih Baydar (the 85kg lifter who did 145/170 (snatch/clean and jerk) for a 315kg total). He has the upper hand being a Junior National Champ in Turkey though. But I want to catch him. I need to start working harder. I am going to start practicing form on my lifts on days off of training. Very very light like active rest type work (or as westside BB guys would say GPP). The reason I think I can get away with it is (a) the weight will be light and I will just be performing form work (movement) and (b) there is pretty much no eccentric on the olympic lifts so the damage to tissue is going to be minimal (esp. with very light loads). I need to get my reps in. I need to work harder.
