Blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or bothered by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit. Jeremiah 17:7-8

P90X, Week 12, Day 1

Today is technically Week 12, Day 1, but I got off track there somewhere. I think it's because I skipped Rest and Stretch Day, which would've been yesterday. So, today I'm getting back on the schedule, and I did Ab Ripper X as well as Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps. I haven't done Chest/Shoulders/Triceps in awhile, and my strength and endurance were kind of poor. I did my best to "bring it", but I did feel a little weak. SO MANY PUSHUPS!

My lower body is sore from last night's workout, and I'm also sore in odd places, like my luv handles and my back. I'm not sure why that is, since I did Brazil Butt Lift and Kenpo X last night. Even though I've been working out the past couple of days, I still feel like a slacker for some reason; I guess because I've 'tweaked' the P90X program rather than follow it exactly. I have treid to focus more on lower body since I hadn't lost any inches or cellulite there. I feel kind of bad for straying from the program, and I hope I don't end up with poor results. I still have that little fat pooch that I can't get rid of, too. It's like a layer of fat over my abs that will not go away. I don't mean to complain. I've come a long way. And it probably doesn't help that my dinner tonight was a frosted donut from Dunkin Donuts. I had been doing pretty well with my nutrition, but my husband brought home a dozen donuts-all different and colorful- and I managed to stay away from them all day yesterday, but with it being 'that time', my body craved sweets today, and I HAD to have one!

Tomorrow's workout is Cardio X, and somewhere along the way, I've lost that DVD. I hope to find it tomorrow, but if I can't, I may go to the gym and burn a ton of calories on the eliptical. Or I may do plyometrics if I'm not too sore from yesterday's workouts.
