Day 2

P90X, if I could describe it in one word, BRUTAL. I knew going into it that it was not going to be a piece of cake. What I did not know was that halfway into the first exercise, I would be doing the women's version of it!

Day 1 of P90X: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps + Ab Ripper X for a total of 90 minutes.

So I may be a bit out of shape, but I couldn't believe the level of difficulty in those exercises especially the ab routine! I could barely open and close the shower curtain last night after the workout and it is a bit of a task to type this morning.

Commitment is what I'm giving to this and this blog will help me stay committed.

Sidenote: They say that you should do P90X if you're at your goal weight, I say bs. I sweated last night like how I would have sweated running on a treadmill.

Food blog for Tuesday, May 5, 2009

Cinco de Mayo? What's that? Gone are the days of celebrating with burritos and tacos!

Breakfast - coffee with skim milk no sugar, water, cereal bar, banana
Lunch - mixed green salad, mushroom barley soup, water
Snack - 10 almonds
Dinner - 1/2 cup of white/brown rice, 8 bite size pieces of general tso chicken

EDIT: I had 2 York Peppermint Patties after dinner

Dinner was not as healthy as I wanted it to be but I couldn't stand the thought of throwing leftovers into the trash.

I'm the lightest I've been in 3 years.
