Hello all...I hope week 7 is treating you all kind with results.
I have not blogged for awhile so here goes.
I am seeing some results in strength. Still not real motivated to P90, but making it through all for each of you doing it alongside me. We are over half way there. I am consistantly getting in 5 workouts a week and some weeks all 6. I am happy with that. The eating part is slowly coming along. It comes and goes. Those nights I eat or want to eat an entire cookie cake (and yes I can/do) don't help much, but thankfully they are few and far between.
I hope you are all doing well and enjoying this process. Let's hear from you!!

Enjoy your weekend kids!

I think the Core Synergistics is my favorite video of all 13. I like not having to repeat an exercise, I like the variety in that video. And what adds to the fun is how Dreya is. Seriously, I think she’s on crack in this video. And honest to God, Tony compliments here on the extension of her fingers when she’s doing the Superman. I mean, you just have to laugh at that.

struggling....

Okay haven't posted for awhile. I am struggling to want to keep going today. I will though. I HATE dieting and eating right. Why do calories have to count?
Well I have only done two P90 work outs this week so far and will get three more in. I did play volleyball last night so I am counting that as a work out! (not a P90)
I hope you are all doing so well at this and not struggling and just having a great time, because right now Tony and Drea can crawl in a hole and not come out!!
Done with the negative....anyone else struggling?
I am heading down to do some yoga! I am sure I will feel better after that!
Enjoy your weekend kids!

Okay Clari--totally with you on that fat hurts thing!! What a way for your hubby to be uplifting and encouraging huh!
Glad you guys are on board. I was laughing hysterically reading the blog, but only because I feel your pain...literally!
Week 4....rest??? NOT!

Clari's week of P90

 Dear P90X'ers,
 This is Clari- John and I are 2 weeks behind because of his vacation.
 Below is a summary of my 1st week:

 MONDAY:
 Started my day at 5:00 a.m. Tough to get out of bed, so John said
 some encouraging words...something about a fat butt. Did weights.
 Not too bad for the first day!

 TUESDAY:
 Wow...a little sore in the shoulder area. Thankfully we are doing
 Cardio and not weights today.

 WEDNESDAY:
 Did the treadmill in the a.m. Can't reach across my desk at
 work! I dread that we have weights again already!

 THURSDAY:
 Oooh noooooo...Yoga! Still sore in my shoulders. Want to curl up in
 the fetal position!

Friday:
Legs and back...I think I can do this.

Saturday:
Remember that "fat butt" remark...ouch! (Does fat hurt?)

 Thought for the week: Do people really LIKE doing this stuff?

Okay now I think I got it. Let me know if this works as a new post. Sorry to be a pain!
We just started Monday, thanks to my trip to Argentina. I gained 7 lbs in 10 days!! We are hurting units!! I think my toe nails even hurt!! But, watch out here I come!!!

Week 3 Already

Happy St Patty's Day everyone. It's hard to believe we're on week three already and with 2 workouts out of the way for this week, it seems like the rest can't be that bad. Week 2 flew by, we didn't have quite as good as results, but I can tell I'm getting stronger and the food changes we made are going a little easier (nothing too serious). We went to Kansas City to visit some friends last Friday & Saturday, the huge plate of BBQ ribs made it a little tough to stay on the diet, but I'll catch up for it. We also did a workout in the morning today so we could enjoy a green beer tonight. I'm not a huge fan of the morning workouts, especially plyo. I guess it doesn't matter when I do that workout, I still don't like it. It'll be the last time for a few weeks though.

I've had some good food due to the food plan we're doing along with the workouts. Amy and I used to got to Jimmy Johns for lunch once a week, well that has turned into salad at Jason's Deli. They have a pretty good salad bar for lunch. I hadn't eaten there before, but I like it. Still a little expensive, but not too bad. I also had a greek salad from Katie's that was pretty good. I tried an unwich from Jimmy John's, but I could see why they called it an unwich, it's nothing like their sandwiches. I could've ordered about 2 or 3 of them.

I've been trying to get Amy to blog on here once in a while, but she'd rather read what people are saying then complain because there aren't any more posts. I told her, she was the main problem. As Tony would say, "you can do anything for 30 seconds". So I'll keep trying to get her on here to atleast say hi and prove she's actually doing stuff.

Until next time, the word of the day is "Don't smash your face!"
