I just finished my last workout of the week. Tomorrow is a rest day and then I will have completed my first week of P90X.
I LOVE IT!!! It is fun, tough, and humbling, but I feel great.
I'm still not sure about how I'm doing with my eating. The exercise alone has been a huge time commitment for me, so I haven't had the time to focus on the food yet. I think I'm doing OK though.
I'll weigh in on Wednesday morning and share my progress report then.
If you are considering doing P90X, here are a few observations I've made so far:
-It's not easy. You need to be already working out and have a basic level of fitness before you start. You might want to work up to this instead of starting here, unless you are crazy like me. : )
- Don't rely on the resistance bands. I think it is important to have weights and a pull up bar. I have the Door Gym that I bought locally. It's nice because it is portable and didn't need any hardware or drilling into my door frame.
- Pray first everyday. I have been really focused on P90X this week, and I've felt myself drifting a little spiritually. I love it but don't want it to become an obsession.
I'm so excited for Day 30 so I can compare pictures and measurements.
I'll be back on Wednesday to let you know how I did this week. I feel like I moved to the Biggest Loser ranch. : )

I struggle with the eating thing too. I had a doctor tell me one time to eat 1500-1800 calories when I excercised. I just can't bring myself to do 1800 on days I work out. When I don't work out I try to eat 1200-1500, but I have been very lazy lately and haven't been counting calories or working out. This week I started back to doing that and its been a struggle, but I eat much less when I write down what I eat. The best thing to do is listen to your body and eat what will benefit your body. Keep up the good work!
