Well, I was on fire in a good way this morning doing Sweat 3-4. I have gotten to where I can reach high with my hands on the knee raises for 4 times and them hands down for 4, repeat, which is great for my heart rate!
My weight loss has SLOWED to a crawl lately, even gaining a lb or so each week! As my BF and muscle readings on my scanner have been improving greatly, I assume I am gaining muscle under the flab! I hope so! I am just going to keep going on with it! Doing my best! Nutrition is key, so I will stay On-Plan with WW as best I can.
WOOT!
EDIT: I can feel a lot of new muscle under the flab, so the above is a very solid hypothesis. Very exciting!

Tony Horton: "Do your best and forget the rest"
Thanks for this Tony Horton. This is the hallmark of a great trainer, teacher, and leader. This is what I strive for when I teach Kung Fu to the little kids in our kids class. Do your best and let go of what you can't do (yet).
Chances are that if you do your best everyday, then you will be able to nibble away at what you CAN'T do. Just like reading a book and learning it's contents. It works the same way with the body.
This is the core concept of yoga as I see it. If you do whatever you practice a little each day the best you can, then you WILL get better.

Day 42, Sculpt
Morning world,
I have decided to keep doing my circuit strength training DVD in the morning. The mind games that arise when I was toying with the idea of doing cardio every morning and then strength 3 day a week were pretty dehabilitating... IYKWIM.
I figure my circuit strength workouts are pretty aerobic as it is as Tony Horton really keeps the pace up! Yeah Tony! Thanks for P90!
Hope you had a great weekend. I know I did with lots of sleep and exercise and eating well.
I discovered the joys of tuna steaks from costco over the weekend pan fryed in a little olive oil. My GOD they're good!

Unhappy, anxiety
You know... Today I am not very happy. I night-ate last night and that sucked. But I have the points in my daily allowance for it..
But then at lunch today I overate at subways. I got two footlongs and was going to save the second..welll you know the rest...
So now I am full in a bad way and I still have dinner to deal with. It upsets my wife when I don't have points left for her dinners. She works hard to cook then for us. I do still have 10 points in my weekly points allowance, so I will play it cool and maybe get some working out in even though today is a rest day...
I always feel better after working out.

Rest day
Hi there,
During my 37 days of P90, I haven't had that many rest days. Well, I decided today is gonna be a rest day. But today at lunch I overate somewhat, so I am feeling some anxiety and combined with my "jonce" to workout, I am getting downright jumpy. I think I will do a sculpt work out taking it easy, learning the resistance bands, and then maybe a "fat burning express" taking it easy too. Just nice and easy to have fun. I am gonna go nuts!

Day Thirtysomething
I have been struggling with allergies and drowsiness from antihistimines the last couple of days and I have missed a few WOWY workouts. Sad... Anyway I have still kept up with the program! Victory!
Uggh.. This morning it was sooo hard to do my Sweat 1-2 workout. That is, it was hard to start... Once I DID get started I did fine and it felt really great.
Lately, I have decided to do Sweat and Fat Burning Express (M-W-Sat with Sculpt in the PM) on alternate mornings with Thursday as a rest day. It seems like a good plan. I really want to get back in the habit of morning exercise (not that I am that out of it, just having inner child issues). And like I said this morning to my friend on another BBS, my inner child was throwing a tantrum, but my inner adult was in charge.
