I went over my carbs by one but I actually feel really good about what I ate today. I probably should have tried to get a protein shake in but I was completely satisfied and not hungry all day.

Also, today was Week 2 Day 1 of P90X and my 2nd round of chest and back. I'm still feeling good about everything!

************************************

I did the Yoga X today and that was hard. I'm trying really hard not to stress about food but I feel like I'm eating too much even though I know that I'm not.

This weekend is going to be the real challenge to see if we can make it through without drinking any beer.

Day 4 of P90X

So, I'm onto Day 4 of P90X and still haven't taken my before pictures. I must do that tonight!!

So far, Jeff and I are actually having an easy time with this. The only complaint is the amount of protein we have to eat and we're just not used to eating that much.

Day 1 - chest and back - this was a tough one but we managed to make it through

Day 2 - plyometrics - WOW! Extremely hard and I'm still sore 2 days later.

Day 3 - shoulders and arms - again, it was tough but doable. I think I'm going to need to adjust my weights some here.

Today is going to be Yoga and this should be interesting. I'm not sure I'll be able to make it the entire way through without laughing my ass off at Jeff.
