Case of the Mondays? I have it, but that won't stop me from restarting P90X tonight!
Today's P90X workout consisted of Legs, Back, and Ab Ripper X. It's more challenging for me because of the surgery I've had on my right foot but going at my own pace and pausing every now and then seems to work ok. I am still struggling with the Ab Ripper X program, although I am already seeing an improvement from the 1st time I tried it, in terms of keeping up with the exercises, but not in my abs, hahaha.
I must say though that since I don't have a pull up bar, I don't believe I got the full effect of today's workout. Using resistance bands anchored to a door also give you a workout but it is definitely not like pulling my fat @$$ up on a pull up bar 120 times! Either way, pulling on a resistance band 120 times (heavy resistance that is) still makes it quite hard to type this out.
Here is an example of one of the exercises, a one-legged squat and hold that pose for 30 seconds and switch feet. I was shaking like a blade of grass blowing in the wind! For the record, as of day 7, you still notice a double chin on my face. One of my goals by day 90 is to have ONE chin folks! Wish me luck!!

Breakfast: Toasted multigrain sandwich with egg whites and mushrooms with some hot sauce, water. I am going to see if Kristine is right about coffee so I chose not to have any today and through the end of the month.
Snack: Water, plum EDIT: 1/3 of a plum (it was terrible) and 1/2 cup of coffee with skim milk (I couldn't shake off my addiction to caffeine and just needed a "sip")
Lunch: Toasted multigrain roll with turkey, spinach, roasted red pepper, lettuce, tomato, mustard, and hot sauce, water.
Snack: Cereal bar, water
Dinner: Water, 3 slices of turkey cold cuts, 3 slices of chicken cold cuts - this dinner should make up for last night's glutonous feast.
I'm really proud of you!!
