Don't call me skinny - it's lean

Nine point nine percent. Just five weeks ago my body fat percentage was a full six percentage points higher, but after getting on a new diet plan and exercise routine, I've entered a realm I've never seen before. It's pretty exciting to physically see the results and see definition I never thought possible.

So my coach and I set the goal to establish a sub-10 percent body fat and once we hit that goal, we would work to maintain that percentage. For the last five weeks I've been eating the same thing every day. I've gone on diets before, but never one like this. I understand the bigger picture and what we're working for so I knew it would be extreme. So extreme, I've already started planning my post-show feast:

• 3 slices of pizza with the works
• 2 cheeseburgers
• Tater tots
• My grandma's lasagna
• My mom's chicken cutlet parmigiana
• 4-egg omelet with ham, sausage, pepper jack cheese, salsa, cheddar cheese, potatoes and peppers

So since we hit our first goal, my reward was the change of the diet. The big change??? A half a cup more brown rice. Oh well, maybe five months will go quicker than I think.
