and i think it may of helped me burn some more calories since i danced in between moves and breaks. plyo still sucked at times, but music helped it go by faster. although at that half way point i wanted to stop again. but i pushed through. and i sweated my butt off. a good thing about the cardio workouts is that you dont have to do ab ripper x after. LOVE that.
now i have a question for anyone reading this (which is probably no one), does your stomach bloat after you work out? mine always does and it makes it hard to find the workout rewarding when i look like a big bloated mess. i have always wondered about this. any insight anyone?
i am anxious to be over with this week and then next week. i want to see some results. i dont have a problem doing the workouts (well a little), i just want the weeks to be over so i can see the difference.
once i'm a few more weeks further, i will tell you whether i recommend the all mighty p90x or not. i am thinking i will, but stay tuned.

p90x update.
ok so last week did not go so well. i got busy and my mom came into town, so i missed some workouts. so i decided to start week 2 all over again. today was again chest and back plus ab ripper x. this is my 4th time doing this workout. once when i was originally going to start p90x (and then didn't follow through with the rest of the week), and then my first official week, last week, and this week again. so my chest, back, and arms may end up being more buff then the rest of my body. haha...:)
but that is where i am. starting the week over. i just as passsionately HATED ab ribber x today as i have in the past. i would capitalize or bold the word HATE more if i could, because i cant express my HATE for ab ripper x enough. but as much as i hate it, the thing i hate most on my body right now is my belly. i want it gone. i had it gone and the winter brought it back to me. so bring it ab ripper, even though i hate you.
i plan to get back into routine this week. i felt incredibly guilty last week on the days i didn't do it. i actually wanted to be doing it. things are getting slightly easier, meaning i can do more reps of some things, or i make moves a little more challenging, etc. so that is good to see, but i am still weak :P. i'll get there.
until next time..... now get up and move!!!

p90x-the last couple days.
well i think i left off where my next day would be kempo. i did the kempo and it wasn't really difficult, it was just a little strange. i didn't love it. it took some coordination and i was a little awkward with it. it probably takes some getting use to. that was the last day of week 1.
monday i did Day 1 of Week 2. the first 3 weeks have the same schedule. so day 1 this week was the same--chest and back, plus ab ripper x. for some reason toward the end of chest and back i was really getting worn out and by the time it came to ab ripper x, well it wasn't pretty. OH HOW I HATE YOU AB RIPPER!!! it sucks! and it really sucked this day. i threw up a little after this workout. whatever. i am not trying to be pretty, i'm telling it like it is.
yesterday i skipped. i got home late from work and didn't have the time. so today i did plyometrics. actually i wasn't dreading it today. maybe since i went through it once already. i dont know. but i really hate working out. especially for an hour straight. all these workouts are a straight hour. and that little timer in the right hand corner taunts me. i look at it all the time hoping we are almost finished. and i look at it and constantly think about giving up right then and there. thinking, "alright i did enough. i'm sweating. i am worn out." but i press on. i may break sometimes and run in place or do an easier version of a extremely difficult move. and tony says that is ok :)
but here i am. i am sticking with it. i know it is going to take some time to see results. it did the first time i lost weight and got in shape. so i hope to see noticeable results at the 3-4 week mark. and at the end of this i better look freakin awesome! i just want a body that i love and if i haven't mentioned it before i want to be in the best shape of my life before i get pregnant. i figure if i am in really good shape than i will have an easier time getting back in shape. and no, i am not getting pregnant any time in the very near future. but anyway, i will be back in a day or two. till then....
