Week 1--Day 7

Ahhhh. I have finally made it to my day of rest.  Yesterday was as I suspected.  Kenpo was pretty much like kickboxing and karate.  It was actually pretty fun, although I find myself wondering work-out after work-out, if I'm doing all the moves correctly.  My sore body is proof I suppose.  Not to mention I'll have plenty of time to critique these moves. Today it feels like I may have pulled a muscle in my neck and back, wonderful way to celebrate.  Just thanking my lucky stars it wasn't on the day of a work-out or I might be in a world of hurt.

Tomorrow my week starts over.  Looking at it as a whole, I'm finding myself extremely overwhelmed.  I'm trying to find ways to keep myself motivated because I am determined to go all the way.  I guess it's like everything else, take one step at a time, one day at a time.  I have yet to hear from anyone I know that's tried P90X, that the full 90 days was completed.  (If you are one who has, please speak up now so I can congratulate you!)  I can see why, but I don't want anything to deter me, I intend to go all the way.  It's only 90 days right?? You can do anything for ninety days! I need a countdown! I need to have peaks and things to look forward to at the end of a week.  Maybe hanging up some pictures of ripped bodies and flat stomachs on my fridge? That's about as far as my creative juices flow.  Anyone have any ideas?

I was a little late doing all my measurements.  I just did them last night, so who knows if I've made any improvements in one week.  I do know that I've lost a half an inch off my waist so far, so that's encouraging!  Stick to the diet people, it works! I plan on printing off a portion chart I made, in case anyone wants to see how I've been scheduling and planning my food.

I won't have anything to write about tomorrow, except basking in my glorious off-time, but I may post if the spirit moves me. ;)

Half an inch is pretty exciting. When you think about it, that's the difference between being able or not able to squeeze all of one's rear fat into a pair of skinny jeans. Keep going!!!
