Day 2

Another successful day of working out with the kids up and about.  Yesterday, I put a movie on for them while I worked out, and had the P90X dvd in the laptop.  That worked out great...today, I thought I'd experiment and have my workout going on the tv and see if they'd be able to play and be occupied on their own...not so much.  So about 25 min. in, I switched it and let my son pick out a movie and I worked out on the laptop.  Looks like that's the route I'm going to have to go with. 

Today was Plyometrics.  Seeing as how I pooped out of doing Insanity after like 3 or 4 weeks, this was tough for me.  There was a couple times I had to stop before the allotted time, which made me sad.  But all in all, I feel like I did pretty good.  I was a big sweaty mess by the time I got done.

I did really well yesterday with the food aspect, and thus far today, I'm doing well too.  I think for me, that's the toughest part.  Obviously I tend to struggle at being consistent with getting my workouts in, but I REALLY struggle with not eating junk, or munching when I don't need to.  My saving grace has always been that I have a job where I'm active and moving around and sweating.  But I know that if I can get my eating under control, I will have a way better chance of meeting my goals.  Doing the Ultimate Reset before I started P90X was great in that it really highlighted why I eat (boredom, munching with the kiddos, and finishing whatever they don't eat off their plates), and taught me that often times, I really don't need to eat when I think I do...I need to drink more water.  Speaking of which, I've done a million times better at drinking water.  I used to drink tons of pop at work, because it's easily accessible and free...then with the Reset, I went over a month without drinking any pop.  I had a relapse in the week between doing the Reset and P90X where I had a few pops, but I really don't have the strong craving for pop anymore, which is fabulous.
