Beachbody


I am really excited to mark today as 65 days completed with P90X. I had to push back a few weeks down to just stretching which is still working out I guess but not really to me.  I know it's a very important part of working out. I never really understood why before I started this program. It feels so good to stretch out in the morning.It was extremely hard for me not to workout. I crave it like I used to crave coffee. Now my body tells me I need protein shakes and water. I have a desire for fruits and veggies which I don't completely understand yet. I just know that they taste really yummy! I had to take in the consideration that if I didn't rest the tendon I pulled in my arm it would be a lot longer then two in a half weeks of resting. I pulled back took a deep breath and smile. I couldn't even lift my arm. Walking around a one arm Mexican was really hard. My lovely boys and hubby really made it easy for me. They took on my chores of the house along with cooking dinner. They are great! I have found that working out twice a day after taking two weeks off makes you really tired.

Yet, I have great news at 65 days.

I finally can see the start of my six pack. I have a biceps a mini muscle but I show it off in my tank tops. I have never really been over weight ever in my life. I have always been between 130 and 145.
I now weigh 142 it's unbelievable! I just added another band and yoga block to my workout. Gnc makes way to much money off my hubby and I. Like today another shake I had to get because I ran out. I can't stomach taking pills I don't care how big or little they are forget it. I have done every thing in the book. From downing them with my protein shake to plugging my nose and closing my eyes to wrapping it in cheese. I think at this point it's mental. I can't even take Advil it makes me want to vomit just the thought of it. My hubby laughs his butt off when I take my vitamins. The only reason I was able to take the horse pills they call prenatal vitamins was because my hubby stood right there telling how it was good for the baby. Then he would go into how I was the most beautiful pregnant woman in the world. I'm glad he continues to tell me those things  daily even not carrying his child.  I turned in my coffee for green tea. I took out sugar from my diet along with salt. I don't miss it at all. It's weird because before I would have not ever consider it. I love the way I feel everyday. It's amazing how I feel. Once I complete this program it's on to my next challenge. Insanity here I come!
