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.
