Day 14 of P90X


Instead of doing Kenpo X, we all went to Point Loma and did some hiking and sightseeing! The weather was warm and breezy. It was really fun and educational oh and especially beautiful! Sometimes just going sightseeing will make you appreciate why you love where you live! :) And I just happen to live in the best town ever!

Diet: Breakfast consisted of eggs and a cup of joe. For lunch we had to go where we could experience San Diego best, Santana's! Had some surf n' turf burrito and bean quesadilla. Dinner we grilled some steak and corn. Yummy!

Week 3 starts tomorrow!

Day 09 of P90X


P90X: Phase 1 Week 2 Cardio X

I had a really, really long day.

Woke up at 0430 didn't have time for a proper breakfast so I drank a couple glasses of water and munched on some crackers and was out the door. I had to be at the hospital by 0530 to be in Pasadena by 0900. I made it and slept some of the way. When we got there we had breakfast. I had a cup of Starbucks Coffee with sugar & cream, strawberry yogurt, and half a loaf of some breakfast cake.

Then the day progressed with activities and facility history and all that first day stuff. Lunch came along and I had a Turkey Sub with a side of coleslaw which was really tart. Then during the afternoon I had fresh fruit and a glass of super sweet lemonade. I drank a lot of water as well.

We were back on the bus at 1500 and I got home about 1730 actually 1800 and had dinner, left over Chinese because I was madd hungry. Rested for an hour and did Cardio X!

Oh Cardio X how I adore you so!

I did everything. All the sets, all the push ups, all the dreya-rolls (minus jumping up in the air). Did you notice in P90X we don't take any breaks? I mean you can, but Tony doesn't! It felt so good to be dripping in sweat. I hope I don't get addicted!

I weighed myself and I lost 2lbs. Woo I use to be 72.5kg! Ha! Posted Stats! I'm 5'5" btw.

Another long day tomorrow! Good Nite!

P90X: Phase 1 Week 2 Core Synergistics

Woooohoo! Week 2! I'm so excited that I'm progressing. :)

Today at church one of our members said to me, "You're getting slender now!" Ha! That compliment made me feel so good. I mean, shit, isn't it terrible that people tell you that you've gained weight and and mention that you've put on a few pounds? It's like NO SHIT, I know I can't fit into my favorite pair of jeans, I know I went up a dress size, I know, I know, I KNOW! It sucks to be reminded seriously. Some people can be so insensitive.

Whew, just had to get that off my chest.

Anyhoo, I was going to post a one week pre and post picture but I decided against it. I, myself, feel there is definite change but the pictures don't represent that. I can fit better in this one pair of jeans that I've had since I was 20 (I'm now 26). So that tells me a lot. And in general, I feel better about myself. I feel more confident about my body and that's what its all about anyways.

Core Synergisitics Round 2! Amazing. My first time around I couldn't do much of the push ups and that is the majority of the workout. But my 2nd try, I put it in my head that I would just try every single move and I did just about everyone of them, even the push ups! I didn't do as many as they did but I did more than 3/4 of each. I especially liked the "Reach High and Reach Under Push-Ups"! I can't believe I actually can do that! They were fun!

Well, I start my new job tomorrow. I have orientation in Pasadena :( So the bus will pick us up in San Diego at 530am. That means I have to wake up at 4AM! You're crazy! I'm such a night owl this is going to kill me! I really hope I'll have enough energy to work out afterwards. Cardio X!

Diet:
Breakfast:
Oatmeal & Brown Sugar, pandesal, half a cup of Coffee with Cream & Sugar (I needed it) and water
Lunch: We had takeout Chinese food :( I know, I know. Water
Dinner: Meat & Potatoes, Water
