Hmmmm... Day 60? Yoga?

Sooo... my husband and friends kidnapped me to las vegas for my birthday! And Eric, on purpose, did not bring my p90x... :(

Sooo... I've debated on whether I start over now or what. I missed yoga, back and legs, and kenpo. So I think I'm going to double on the days, so I can get back on track... maybe?

So today I'm going to do yoga - and tonight I'll do back and legs, and ab ripper.

Then tomorrow I'll do kenpo and chest shoulders and triceps -and be caught up maybe? lol

So here goes some yoga. :)

Day 59 - Shoulders and Arms

Went running this morning on the track... now p90x.

Also, can you believe that you need to eat MORE to lose weight? Cuz I exercise so much, my body thinks its starving since I only eat 600- 800 cals a day. So now I'm just TRYING to eat between 1200 - 1500 healthy calories. And I'm losing weight. How funny!

Went to the doc today to find out why I can't lose weight - basically, I don't eat enough. Who would have thought? So today I've changed my eating habits. And have tried to eat more. I need to go grocery shopping and get more foods that are going to be easy for me to access and eat better - while eating more. lol FUN! haha

AB RIPPER!

Day 53 - stretch

This is easy. :)

Day 52 - kenpo

I think kenpo is the worst of the dvds...not that it's hard, but just boring. lol

Day 51 - core synergistics

Today - I'm annoyed. I went to sleep annoyed, tried to watch friends to laugh, but still was annoyed. Woke up annoyed. :( I broke Eric's ATV pretty badly it seems now - when I thought it was just a rim and maybe a control arm. I'm so mad at myself. I shouldn't have looked back to check on people, I shouldn't have been driving side by side with Brandon, and I shouldn't have been driving the ATV when I felt like I should have gotten on Eric's ATV just a few minutes before.

I just hope this workout this morning will make me feel better.

Also, on days like these, I think, what's the point of working out? Is it really working?

On a bright note, I found a better doctor - hopefully - we'll see when I go on Monday - and hopefully they'll figure out my weight thing. :)

Day 50/ Beginning of Week 8- Yoga

So I got in a pretty bad ATV accident... But I'm still allowed to work out as long as I'm careful. This is a great week *no weights* week. :)

Day 42 - pictures

So I took Day 42 pics today - yes, there is a difference - but is there enough of a difference that I'm happy? No... there isn't.

It's time to change something... I don't know if it's more of a diet restriction, or more exercise or what. Or maybe I need to take the time to realize that hey, I am not quite half way yet. Who knows.

Day 39 - yoga, Day 40 - legs and back, abs, Day 41 - kenpo, Day 42 - rest

LOVE yoga, LOVE legs and back - its the one thing I have to work on the most, so I work really hard for that one.

Legs and Back:

Reverse grip chin ups: 3 by myself!!! holla!!! 4 with chair/2.5 by myself, 3 with chair

Wide front pull ups: 3/4 by myself! almost one... hehe 7 with chair/1/2 by myself, 3 with chair

Close grip overhand pull ups: 1 by myself!!! 6 with one foot on chair - wouldn't it be amazing, if i could do one of each all in a row?! hehe/1 by myself again! and 3 with chair

switch grip pull ups: 3

I'm thinking I'm gonna do p90 again after the first 90 days.. maybe... I know I'm fitter now. Eric notices every day. My driver - who picks up my shipments from work - hasn't seen me since January and saw me Friday and said... wow Jackie, I mean wow. You are so thin. And I was so happy! It's the best compliment in the world when you're trying to be better. Eric says I won't need to do it again - he says I'm not even half way through and I'm looking a TON better. SO I guess we'll see what happens at day 90. Right?

I don't really love kenpo. It's okay, but I don't feel like it's that great of a work out. lol I'd rather run or bike.

Day 41! Rest day... it's crazy.... I'm almost half way through.

And need to do plyo tonight.

Nutrition:

9:00 am - V8 - 70 calories

1:15 pm - BLT and fries - 280 cals

9:00 pm - salad for dinner - eric's concoction - 116 cals

Did plyo - Eric won't do the whole thing with me - so he vacuumed for me instead! :) Love him! And he got me flowers the other day - need to blog about it.

Day 36 - nutrition

I'm using fitday.com to actually list my calories and stuff - so I'll try and list it here too.

Fitday says that I need to restrict my caloric intake by 900 calories to reach 108 pounds by July 28th. Random day - just randomly picked it as a goal. It says I should be able to eat 1690 calories a day - but not sure how it really decides that. If that's true, then I should keep a goal of staying under that. When I did my food diary for my doctor - I ate on average 700 calories a day - so either something is wrong with me in terms of not being able to lose anything, or I fluctuate big time. We will see.

8:30 am - Minute Maid Energy Drink - 120 calories

5:00 pm - had a baked potato with cheese, sour cream, and butter

9:00 pm - 2 slices of french bread with butter

Day 36 - Chest, Shoulders, Triceps

So back to p90x in the morning - I've been doing it at night, and sometimes it just kicks my butt after a long day. So today, Molly and I went running and now I'm doing this. I won't have time for the ab ripper - so I'll do the 15 minute video after Eric and I bike to see Jixie today.

Also, I'm making a new goal each week - this week is to get rid of the bottom belly fat I have - which won't completely go away, but at least try harder - SOOOO a personal trainer once told me you can't do that unless you give up all sugar - so no sugar this week. Also, I'm going to be very diligent about writing down the cals of what I eat, and at what time. (My doctor needs this. lol)
