Body fat %

Hmm... today I took off to the gym after a very rough night. I couldn't sleep... it was like the night before the big field trip. I kept waking up and thinking.. it's probably 5.. I'll head over! WRONG!! It was 1:26, then 3:42 then FINALLY 5:12.
I know it seems lame to be SO excited about a body fat percentage test BUT.... I couldn't help it. Last year I was at 40% body fat. This means that 80 lbs of my 198 lb body was FAT!! BLAH!! Today I weighed in at 22.6% body fat! WOW!!! The trainer who was doing the test looked at me and was like... "You are at a VERY good place here! Anything you do from here is totally for vanities sake!" Why THANK YOU trainer lady! I APPRECIATE THAT!! ;o) This number means that I have 26 lbs of fat distributed throughout my body. Much better than 80.. but still kind of creepy! ALTHOUGH.. according to trainer lady that is FANTASTIC! SO... this comp [at the gym] ends in 2 months. I have no idea what is REALISTIC but... I would love to weigh in at under 20%. This requires a lot of strength training and I figure... P90X CAN deliver if I push myself hardcore... so... I'm in it to win it! [Well.. not to win the competition BUT the top 50% get a free months sauna pass!!] I'm ready to BRING IT!!! :o)
