P90 COMPLETE

Well, I've done it.  Finished all ninety days of Performance 90.  I'm so glad to be done and looking forward to my next challenge, a 5K run in less than a month.   Total stats:

• -20 lbs
• -6 inches on waist
• much better stamina and self-image.  :-)

P90 DAY 74

Weekly Update:  I should be on day 75 but I missed a day on Saturday.  Otherwise, I'm still working out every day and watching my calorie intake.  Down to 213.

I'll likely not post every day anymore - it's just too tedious, but I'm hitting the workouts ok.  Since I missed a day, I'm setting this to 74 instead of 75

P90 DAY 64, 65, 66 and 67

Not much to say other than I hit my workout each day.  YAY!  Didn't track calories much, but I think I'm pretty good overall.

Today is a Rest Day and I'm counting again tomorrow and hitting the 6-day sequence again.  Monday-Sat are exercises and Sundays are rest days.

Interruptions and Setbacks

Day 61 Begins Now
Well I had a bit of a setback and stopped working out for a few days.  Today should be my 64th day but I missed this weekend due to DragonCon.  I didn't have much time and left my videos home.  Excuses, I'm sure but nonetheless it was not done.

I've had a couple of days of lower back pain but I'm hoping to push past it today and restart.  I'm starting where I left off:  Day 61, and will post every day from now until Day 90.  Weight is still the same (215, -17 lbs.) and my clothes are loose.  -6 inches from the waist.

Enough typing.  Time to start the workout.

P90 Day 56

Went to the water park today but otherwise took it easy (Sunday if off-day)

P90 DAY 50

Wow.  It's been a week since I posted.  I'm still on P90 though.  Watching calories (but haven't been counting much).  I think I've gone over my calorie goal a few days but that might be a good thing. I've been greatly under for weeks and have had a few people tell me that I'm taking in too few calories.  Weight has plateaued but I still feel great.

Today was the first day of the new 3-4 routines and GAH, it was rough.  Inclined push-ups and exercises that ask you to push to your max for 30 secs.  Pain.

Still, moving forward and growing.  I'll do a weigh-in this weekend.

P90 DAY 40-43

Well I didn't post any in the last 4 days, but I DID work out each day. I didn't track calories. I had a nice dinner Friday night but didn't overeat. Then I had whole foods over the weekend, like thick sliced smoked ham, sliced cheddar, grapes, bananas, and cherries. And lots of water. Felt very cave-man like. :-)

Back to tracking today though (Day 44). I'll post that late tonight. Still going Strong!!

P90 DAY 38

What do I fear?
I fear stagnation and lack of progress.
I fear never reaching my potential and being average.
I fear being forgotten... the past... yesterday's news.
I fear giving up and being passed by, going softly into that good night.
I fear letting those I love down, letting myself down.
I fear settling, giving in to the "That's just the way it is" mindset.
I fear dying without ever leaving my mark.
I fear not feeling these fears anymore and just floating along.

These fears feed me, they nourish my drive.

I love my fear.

At any given moment, you have the POWER to say, "This is NOT how the story is going to END"

Didn't track this weekend,  but was overall good and did my workout. :-) 

P90 DAY 33

Someone once asked me, "Why do you always insist on taking the hard road?" and I replied "Why do you assume I see two roads?"
