Has it really been that long since I posted?? Goodness, you can see why this may not have worked in the past. Anyway, the workout part of P90X is going good, but my problem has always been the eating. It's like I work out to break even which I fully understand is counterproductive. Anyways I'm at work, but I'm seriously contemplating entering everything that I eat into this blog everyday. That way there's no hiding. At the same time, my mind is saying "sure theres no hiding, but who's really going to care if you don't?" That's just it, it's the eating that kills my workouts, but it's my mind that kills all of this. It's like give in to being mentally weak when it comes to this stuff. That's sad huh. I need to find a way, ANY way to stay on a track. I guess I'll keep you posted. Take care for now!!!

First Steps Again


So I'm starting my initial 2 weeks of P90X over. Not for the reasons you think though. I've done pretty well at sticking to the program. It's just that I have a buddy that had to go out of town for the next two weeks that started the program at the same time that I did. I figure that if I do the first two weeks over again, that we'll fall back on the same timeframe when he gets back. Who says it has to be 90 days anyway :). As long as I'm continuously working out, I'll be feeling pretty good. Plus I don't want this to finite timeframe anyway. This is something that is a jumpstart to a healther "best" me. Holy cow, I looked at the BeachBody.com website for the first time this week, and was blown away by the contest winners. Their body changes are nothing short of amazing, and truly inspirational. I'd like to see if I can match their accomplishments.

Anyway, keep plugging, and I'll be back soon. Take care!!

SORE!!!

Today is day 4 of P90X and I'm really liking it. I've found that it's much easier to get up early in the morning to workout if you know you just have to walk to your living room. It was always tough to drag myself out when I knew I had to drive to workout. So I just got finished with the Yoga disk, and it was no big surprise that I could barely keep up. Flexibility is not my forte, but I know its a key part of being strong and healthy. Not only am I not flexible, but I'm really sore from days 1-3. I knew that I worked my tail off during the Plyometrics workout, but I didn't realize that it was much more than just a great cardio workout. My legs were dead yesterday, and extremely sore. The best part about it though is realizing that you're really working parts of your body that have been stagnant for quite a long time. The soreness almost validates the hard work you're doing. Anyways, I'll keep you posted as I continue on this first of twelve weeks. Off to work!!!
