So, I've been doing the P90X3 exercise program for 5 weeks now. And I am definitely getting stronger. I also have been trying to get my 3 runs in every week as well. I have a 5K coming up in April. I am nervous. This week, my first running day was 5 min runs with 3 min walks. It was hard, but I did it. My 2nd day is supposed to be 8 min runs with 5 min walks. And the 3rd day is a straight 20 min straight run. That one scares the pants off of me!
Anyway, mixed with my workout program, I added the 21-day fix eating plan. I will keep you all updated with my results. Today is day 1. So far so good. I have learned that I need to plan my eating. I've always been more of a "fly by the seat of my pants" kind of eater. I do watch my portions, but not nearly as much as this program.* I am excited to see where it takes me. And once I finish my P90X3 program, I will be adding the 21-Day Fix workouts to my program.
This time I will succeed. I am ready to do the work to loose the weight& get in great shape!
*i am not a BeachBody Coach, but if you are interested, I can get you in touch with my friend & coach!

I know... I know... that title sucks. Sorry! I am just not being very creative at the moment. I started doing the P90X3 program almost 3 weeks ago. It may only be 30 mins, but wow, it is a GREAT workout. But I digress.... I have been struggling with my weight for the last few years, pretty much since I had kids. Although my struggles did begin a little before that. Anyway, my goal is to lose the 50, or so, lbs that have crept up on me since I pretty much got married.
I will not post pics right now, b/c I am just not that confident yet. I think in my mind that my body is a size that it isn't, or doesn't appear to be in pictures. And no, I do not have issues with food. I eat fairly healthy, and indulge every once in a while. I think it is just genes and getting older.
I am not only doing the P90X3 program but also doing the couch to 10K program. I am running a 5K with a friend of mine in April, but I've been wanting to up my game and go for a 10K in 2014. YIKES! I said that out loud. I also dream of doing the Disney Princess 10K. I don't know if I have the mental focus to run a half marathon. LOL I can go for 30-45 mins right now, but not much longer. And no, I am not at the point of running the whole time. But each week I am getting better.
Anyway, I am going to update you all every so often of my progress. I will post some stats, mostly lbs lost and inches lost. And maybe, just maybe when I get where I am going or I get closer to my goal, I may post my transformation pictures. :) Until then... you'll just have to look at my pretty picture in the upper right hand corner of this blog.
