Just keep pushing play!

Ok so my mind is so on vacation mode. It does not like knowing that exercise is a must! I put off doing P90 forever, but once I "pushed play" as Tony always says I was fine and in workout mode! I was laying on the couch and a P90X informercial came on. How did Tony know I was being lazy and laying on the couch?! I don't know if any of you have seen this informercial, but it really makes you want to get your butt off the couch so I did.
Tony is the main man in my life right now! He has so many quirky sayings that he shares while you are working your butt off. At the start of this adventure you want to press the mute button and punch him after he utters one of his many sayings, but after a while you grow to appreciate them. I've even found myself saying them! Of course instead of "Put the cheeseburger down" I say "Put the cupcake down!".

Back on the wagon!

Got my workout in and holy crap 4 days off hurt me! It almost felt like the first week again. I hate to see how tomorrow goes with cardio! I'm on it though. Alene and I found our old spreadsheet from a couple of years ago when we did southbeach and power 90. That first month we had pretty awesome results. She did super good because she ate a lot better. I cheated a few times and still lost a good amount of weight an inches. Seeing the numbers got me a little motivated and recharged to eat better and really see this program through. I am in the land of good food though so hopefully I won't go too crazy! Well I'm going to try out the elliptical now. I used to be able to do 45 minutes on that machine, I'm going to see if I can't just do 30 minutes! Yay for spring break!!

Not a good start to Spring Break!

Ok so I had such plans for my Spring Break! I finished my last class for the week on Thursday and planned on heading to Gilbert on Friday. I had lots to do before leaving so I decided I would save my P90 workout for that evening. That was the first mistake. I should have just got it out of the way. Instead I headed out of town, but my car LaFawnduh, had other plans. I got an hour out of town and she decided to over heat. I stopped at the casino to let her cool down and on the upside I did make $20!! LaFawnduh was just going to cooperate though and so I had to head back home to Safford. I was so stressed and worried that on my way home I stopped at Jack in the box and ate a horribly. Once I got home I thought about doing my workout, but my stomach was so upset and angry with me eating so bad that I couldn't do it. I found out LaFawnduh needs a new water pump grrrr!
I don't want this to be a Debbie Downer blog though! Good news is that I am getting quite a bit back from my taxes so it will cover my water pump. I got a ride up to Gilbert and will get back on my workouts tomorrow. Alene's apartment has a great workout room and the pool is heated so I am stoked. My day 30 will be here soon and I really need to kick it into gear so that there can be a difference between my before stats and pics! Signing off from Gilbert!!
