Plateau Busted - TAKE THAT

I have officially SMASHED my plateau. I don't think I've ever dropped more than about 1.5 pounds in one week. I've been hovering at 123 pounds for 2 months and then I just barely dropped down to 122 pounds....stuck there for 2 weeks... and now:

I'm a whopping 119 pounds! WOO HOO!!!!

I haven't weighted 119 pounds since HIGH SCHOOL. This is an amazing feeling. I was running at the gym today on cloud 9. I hate cardio and today I thought, well this is ok if I'm going to be this little as a result! Ha!

How have I done it???? Well, the diet freaking sucks is one thing. Althought I have to say I'm getting used to being on it. Today is day 30 without alcohol...the longest I've been without alcohol since high school is 35 days...obviously I'll be smashing that record as part of this comp prep. But really, this is the diet and workout that is now sucking my fat away:

WARNING: Not for the weak minded!

Breakfast:
Every other day 1/3-1/2 cup oats
all days 1/2 grapefruit and 6 egg whites

Snack:
protien shake, almond butter, 1/2 grapefruit

Lunch:
40grams of quinoa with 3 oz chicken with 1 cup green beans

Snack:
3 oz shrimp with 1 cup asparagus with 1 cup green beans

Snack:
protein shake, 1 rice cake

Dinner:
3 oz chicken breast and 2 cups green beans

weight training 4 days a week. Double up legs. 1 day plyometrics.
Cardio: 3 days fat burning for one hour, 2 days 45 minutes of running/sprinting, 1 day 45 minutes of cycling.
That leaves only 1 rest day. And no day without cardio.

whew. It's rough I tell you.

BUT, you put the time in....and you get results. Now I only have 9 pounds to go and 14 weeks left. About another 6% body fat to lose. I'm more worried about the body fat than anything else. But I think it will start to melt away if I can keep this weight loss up!
