Do over

Okay – so I am restarting P90X, as I fell off the schedule a bit and instead of trying to catch up, I am just starting over. So – this morning was Day 2. Incidentally, one of my best friends told me last night that she is doing the Insanity workouts – so this is additional motivation for me. We hang out quite a bit all year long, but especially at the pool and such in the summer. I told my husband today – I will NOT be the “fat friend”. Well, don’t get me wrong, I am not fat – not at all – but I weigh about 20 lbs more than I think I should for my size/height.

All that said, I feel good. Day 2 was good. I have lost 3 lbs overall in the past month – so that is great too.

Took my measurements this time, so I will take them monthly to see how much progress I am making…

Day 3 – DONE!

Day 3 of P90X is complete!!!  I woke up early this morning, got my workout in, showered and am getting the kids ready for school.  What a great morning so far!!  Today was Arms & Shoulders – seemed a little easy while I was doing it, but I am already a bit sore (only 2 hours later) so I know it is working!!

P90X – Day 2

Today was day 2.  I know – it was supposed to be day 3, but yesterday every muscle in my body was so frickin sore I couldn’t bring myself to do it.  And the reality is – Day two is the Cardio X DVD, which I was really afraid of.  See, I can lift weights and do all that stuff, that is easy to adjust based on how many lbs you use, but Cardio is all about stamina – and I don’t have much of that.  So, I rested yesterday and did Cardio X today.

Can I just say, it was really stupid of me to be scared of that.  It was a really easy DVD (except for the damned superman-banana thing which I skipped so as not to vomit).  So now day 2 is complete, and I am feeling pretty good about myself.  Tomorrow is Day 3, which is shoulders, arms and abs..  I am almost positive that will involve more spiderman-banana hell- but I need to conquer that – maybe if I can just do a couple….  I will let you know how tomorrow goes..

Oh and for breakfast today I had a spinach, artichoke and mushroom omelet with feta; lunch was a tomato and avocado sandwich.

Until then – YAY for me!!!
