Day 3 of P90X

Today was our third day. When we first started, we were doing the Classic version, but decided to switch to Lean! I'm so glad we did. Today's workout was good and I feel GREAT! I can't believe it's already after 1AM. Gah!

I am sore. After day one, I wanted to die. And I hate Tony Horton. I think he's the devil. Lol.

I definitely recommend this workout to everyone. I wish my friends would do it so we could talk about it. I'm excited to see what changes come. I still haven't wrapped my mind around the fact that my body will be changing/shrinking. I guess I just have this visual of still being fat, just more in shape. I certainly hope that doesn't happen. I desperately need to get a handle on my eating. I think today I did better. I just get so darn hungry.

I've been taking the Shakeology with Eva and I find that I like mine with water and ice. They're thick and it actually does taste like chocolate. It's actually quite good. I was surprised. Eva likes hers with milk, a banana, and today she added coconut extract. She had me taste it and it tastes just like an Almond Joy! Wow!

I feel pretty sleepy now. I have dishes soaking in the sink so I'm going to get to them now then go to bed. I got a call for a second interview with BioLife today. I'm pretty excited. I hope I get it. I got a job as a barista with Hastings. I'll probably start that on Monday or Tuesday. Wish me luck!

Ok, I'm back

Well, I'm not even sure what to report. I'm still excited to exercise, but I guess in all that excitement, I forgot to psych myself up for planning my meals and keeping track! Doh! I seriously didn't have my mind wrapped about that! Gah!!

Eva and I did a little bit of Zumba and a few of the exercises/stretches that were on the second DVD. I really liked it even tho some of the moves were hard. We mostly did our fit test on Tuesday. It was a lot harder than I expected, but I think I did pretty well considering my size and lack of stamina. I think I should do my fit test again. I feel like a couple of things I didn't go all the way to "failure" so, maybe I'll do just that.

Eva's been tracking her P90X shipment. It should be here any day now. She's super excited. I'm excited, too. I just hope we can come up with a routine, or at least have some sort of plan in place a couple of days ahead of time so I know what to expect. I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but when she's unable to workout with me, I might just do the Just Dance on the Wii. We'll see.

So, I need to work out more and I need to start tracking my food.

I got a job today. I should start working sometime next week. This might prove itself difficult, but I can't allow myself to accept the excuses. There are plenty of people who do way more than me in a day and still manage to work out. And...I want this, remember!?

I think it would be very beneficial for me to do a dream board. I need something to look at to remind me of why I need to work, why I WANT to work out, and what I hope to accomplish in my personal arsenal of goals. I wonder if Eva would do one with me?

So tired

Well, we did it. We actually started working out...and now I see why fat people stay fat. It's a hell of a lot easier than working your butt off, that's for sure. I'm pretty sleepy now, so I'll continue on this tomorrow, hopefully.

Zumba was great. I'm looking forward to day two. :)
