Oh my... well, today I went a bit over my calorie intake because my daughter and I attended a birthday. I had to dig deep to find the willpower to resist the cake, which was neopolitan batter, so it was vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry marble swirl with vanilla buttercream icing. I can't even begin to tell you how much willpower it took to resist that. I love my sweets. I did partake in the food, however. She made a salad with smoked salmon, pasta salad with shrimp, some crackers and different types of dips (pimento cheese; crab dip; and something else), chicken curry salad, and lots and lots of sweet little treats... I tried to put very small portions on my plate and sampled a little of everything that was semi-healthy. I counted those calories as my "dinner" since the party was in the afternoon. By around 9 PM, however, I was starving, and my husband showed up with a small frosty from Wendy's. Those are 300 calories but I ate the heck out of it.
Today, my friend Heather also came by to bring me Brazilian Butt Lift, another DVD series made by BeachBody (same company as P90X). I thought maybe this program would help me to take care of my problem areas: butt & thighs. Well, I can tell you that it kicked my butt. It was only about 30 minutes long, but I sweat like a pig! It is very fast paced, and I had to keep pausing it to catch my breath, and rewinding it to get the jist of the exercises. I found it to be very difficult, and I only did it about halfa@@, but it nearly killed me.
My P90X workout was Yoga X- 90 full minutes of Yoga. Compared to the Brazilian Butt Lift, the 90 minutes of yoga felt like a breeze! Now I'm nice and relaxed and ready for bed. Good night friends!
