My last cookie!

I wish. There is no way I have that much self control, but I did throw away the second cookie that was in the bag here at the hospital. I am hoping we will not be frequenting this place as much and I will not have as much junk food binge eating as I have the past 7 months. For the past few days, I have been doing better about watching what I eat and not eating at night after dinner. Of course, I did have a calzone from Mellow Mushroom for lunch today. There is always the one last...... LOL

I didn't work out today. It just did not fit into my schedule. Hopefully, tomorrow I will start week 4 of my P90X workouts. I haven't been a real stickler following it, but I have done pretty good. I just need to get into a routine. I really need to get back into teaching some Jazzercise classes. I am hoping we can add a Body Sculpt class that I can teach once a week. I don't think I am ready for all the jumping up and down because my feet just can't handle it anymore.

The main thing I need to do is remain consistent. Consistent at eating good for you food (not junk) and also consistent in working out. Here's hoping!

Still doing the P90X

I'm still doing the P90X although I must admit I did not do chest and back yesterday. I just couldn't stand the thought of doing push-ups and pull-ups (with no bar). I think if the bar had been installed I might have done it, but I just want to say that push-ups suck!! I did some anyway and a few legs exercises while I was watching a movie with my little girl. Then I benched pressed her for two sets and did some leg push-ups with her on my feet. Not quite an hours worth of working out, but I figure it was better than nothing.

Today during plyometrics, my knees were bothering a little so I eased up on the last part. Also my feet got a little irritated, but they are not hurting yet. I think the insoles I put in my shoes might have helped a little.

I haven't really tried to diet at all, but I am feeling like maybe that would help. You think??? If I could just stay away from the sweets I think that would be enough cutting back. However, for lunch today all I had was grilled chicken and a few pieces of sushi. Breakfast was a piece of cantaloupe, yogurt and granola followed by a small left over filet for a snack. That's all I've eaten today and it is almost 4:30. Wow! Still, too much protein and not enough veggies. Oh well at least no cookies or ice cream yet. My daughter did ask to go to the ice cream shop though. She has got to stop doing that because she never finishes it and I end up eating it. Last time she got a waffle cone. You know I had to eat that! At least I don't order my own anymore. That's a few calories saved.

Wish my workout buddy was into the workout groove. We used to go all the time and now maybe once or twice a month. Oh well, I do have P90X and I don't have to leave home to do it. I just have to make myself do it and believe me when there is no one else watching it is easy to slack off.

P90X

I started doing P90X almost two weeks ago. It is definitely a good workout, but not always easy to fit in the day since it is at least an hour a day. I have done good and only missed one day so far. Hope I can keep it up and get fit for the holidays. Now if I could just curb my junk food eating habits....gotta stop buying it I guess!

I weighed myself at Summer's dr. office yesterday - 137 pounds. I doubt that number is going to change much without dieting, but hopefully I won't reach 140. I think it is pretty good though considering last year I weighed around 135 and was working out 5-6 days a week. I have never been too keen on a diet because then I just want to eat more cause I feel like I can't. Why is it when we are told not to do something we want to do it more????
