Last night I took on the challenge of Week 5 Day 3. Wowzers! I had to run, "jog", for 20 minutes straight. I am proud to say that I only punked out 4 times for 25 seconds each. (yes I counted the seconds) Needless to say I am a little tired this morning.
I have been beating myself up regarding my lack of weightloss. I keep losing and gaining the same 5 pds. I have been watching what I eat and most people believe I eat incredibly well but I suffer from nighttime munchies. Alas, if I am burning soo many calories I do not believe that is enough to totally derail my loss. I have fallen off the p90x routine for about 2 weeks due to life obligations and work. I am hitting again hard so I can finish out my last 4 weeks.
I have been considering seeing a dietician or endicronologist to discuss my body image and needs. I believe there is a reason I am working out 6x weekly and eating well and NOT shedding the pounds as I was. I just hope its that I need to eat more, something else simple so I can see a payoff for all of this hard work.

Gone Camping- I thought you were back! WTH!?
OMG... so I went camping at the end of last week and then dealt with going back to work and getting planning done, a few meetings, and grades together. I am a little sidetracked by real life to work out like I was. I did do couch to 5k on Friday and then again yesterday. I am keeping that up but getting home later than normal from work. After training tomorrow night, I have to stick it through and get my ass in gear!
Keep me accountable people!
On a sidenote I did sign up for my first 5k! Ahhhhhh!

Week 9/Day 1: P90X
I am back- again.
Today was the beginning of my final 4 weeks. I started back with Chest and Back and can honestly tell you that I must have forgotten how hard this program was or maybe I somehow always did the wrong disk because this was HARD!
Diamond Pushups and Military Push ups = EPIC FAIL on my part!!
I made it through and will survive but damn my injuries and focus on cardio made me weak!

Where in the hell have I been?
WOW.. after the injury and taking a small break and then getting back into it I fell of the blogging wagon.
I have been doing week 8 lite. I have been doing more cardio and couchto5k. I am working through week 3 as well as doing cardio/kickboxing this week in preparation for week 9. Week 8 was supposed to be rest week which is based mostly on cardio and stretching. I do intend to kick it up the last weeks.
Stay tuned.

Window of Opportunity
In the beginning of this program, I could come home and work out at 9pm. Since I have been working out immediately following work and then coming home to relax that has changed a bit. I feel that there is a window of opportunity that I must take advantage of and TODAY I missed it. I am pooped.
Call me a loser but I do not think I am gonna get the second wind needed to get my workout in today.

Week 7/Day 4: P90X and Couch to 5k Week 3/Day 1
Okay... so today would have been Yoga for me but some of the girls that work out after school wanted to work out. I decided to pretend to be a Kickboxing instructor and we did about 30 minutes of a workout with arms, legs, and abs.
I left for home after that workout and commenced to start week 3 of the couch program.
WOW it was hard to run for 3 minutes straight. I lasted 2 minutes 40 seconds.
