I Think I Can... I Think I Can...

After being advised to take some time off from P90X due to a blood clot scare, I am feeling much better today. I went to bed early and go lots of rest! Plus it's FRIDAY! Woot Woot! This has been an extremely long week, and not getting to exercise for 2 days really put a damper on things. I'm back on it today though! Hopefully I can continue to improve my health and maybe even improve my craptastic circulatory system! ;)

I've Found You Find Strength In Your Moments Of Weakness

Today is the 25th day on my P90X Journey! Wow! I can jump, kick, punch, and move better than I ever thought possible! This is a battle that I am so glad I took head on. Ready for some butt kicking cardio this afternoon! :)

Superman Banana

Cardio X has Superman Banana Rolls too?!?!? Who would have thought.... I'm gonna be a pro at those things by the end of these 90 days! Maybe I won't cringe at the mere mention of them then either! :) I'm going the "lean" approach for these next 30 days... I needed a change of pace from the "classic" route.... This way will be a LOT more sweat, and I must say I am looking forward to it! BRING IT!


This is the banana part of the Superman Banana- From here you roll onto your stomach and put your extended arms and legs into the air like superman! You're basically rolling all over the place for what seems like an eternity! =P

Losing weight is easy. Being motivated enough to do so then sticking with it through completion is the hard part. - Jurine Lewis

Today was the beginning of a new week! I am fueling my body with lots of protein and veggies and gearing up for the long haul! I had my first Core Synergistics workout this afternoon, and I must say it was different. Who ever heard of a Superman Banana Roll?!?!?! It was extreme... The X in P90X if you ask my opinion! Haha!! I cooked up some yummy stir fry for dinner and it was AWESOME! I'm so ready for tomorrow... Cardio X here I come!!

70 Days To Go!

After my workout this afternoon I will have completed 20 days of P90X... It's crazy how fast the time is flying! As I near the 30 day mark, I find myself feeling extra excited. I had lost the fire for a couple of days, but now I can feel it burning brighter than ever! I will push myself past the limits I thought I had, and I will conquer this goal I've set in place for myself... I'm ready to BRING IT for the next 70 days!!! :)

Even On My Weakest Days, I Get A Little Bit Stronger...

Today has been much better than yesterday! I of course had my morning Shakeology shake and it boost me right into energy mode! Thank goodness because I was feeling drained! For lunch I figured out the best thing EVER to help with the pizza craving I've been having for a couple of days. English Muffin Pizzas! Soooo yummy and low in calories, high in fiber... Mmmm... I cannot wait to get home and kick some Kenpo butt... Kenpo has become something I look forward to every week and if you've never tried it, you REALLY should! :)

When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on. ~Franklin D. Roosevelt

Today I feel frustrated... I think the same ole same ole from day to day is catching up to me... I am not losing my focus or my determination, however! You can bend me but I won't break and that's a fact!! On a positive note, I can finally see some muscle definition in my triceps... Hot Damn! A big thanks to my shoulders and arm workout of the day!! YEAH!!!!!!
