roommates rock!!

ok, so i'm still doing my exercise. today it was a little different...i started my "legs" workout and did it for a half an hour but then stopped to watch the biggest loser *love it*. then after that, my roomie chad decided we needed to go to the jacuzzi, so we did. and when we got back i had started the rest of my workout. chad comes out to the livingroom and is wondering why i am doing more p90x. i told him that i had to finish it. so get this, he tells me that i am too dedicated. i love it, and he even told me to put it in my blog lol. so i am. then after that, savannah came out too and started folding her laundry, while watching me. i am not a big fan of people watching me work out, but they are different. they gave me a boost and told me to keep going and helped my motivation. they are awesome and my calfs are burning! and i just noticed that as i am writing this, my dog darla is snoring =D i hate snorers! lol and i have a dog that is sawing logs. oh well, life's great! until our next encounter...

oh man...what's that body part?

boy oh boy. my body is definitely feeling the work outs. even my typing right now is kinda staggering because i'm still on my high from the work out. i have to admit though, i am loving it! pain is beauty right? well girl, bring on the PAIN! i am definitely ready to keep this going. my first day started off with plyometrics (jump training) which is insane! and tonight i did the chest and back. i did find it harder today to resist the temptations, but i have found some things that will help curb that...thank goodness. temptations are the worst, especially when you work in an atmosphere where they try to put weight on people and most people there aren't too worried about their weight.

another thing that has been on my mind is my new puppy. her name is darla and she is very adorable. very annoying at the same time too because i have to keep stopping my typing to chase after her so she stays out of the shoes, garbage and such. "it's just the puppy stage," "wait it out a few months," that's what i keep hearing and telling myself. i think she will be worth it though. =D

P90X Begins

so here i go...it is the beginning of my journey of my new healthy lifestyle. i have not yet done my first exercise, but i plan on doing so one hour after i eat my dinner. my day so far has gone really well. i resisted the tempation of wrong foods and even found a new way to dress up my eggs for breakfast. i'm really looking forward to this adventure, especially with the support of my two roommates, Savannah and Chad. they are great motivation for me and i think i might even be having Chad joining in on the exercising. i'm excited and i hope you are too as you go with me on this journey and help me stay on track! these are my "before" photos that P90X likes you take so you can see the progress and transformation. i'll post my beginning stats tomorrow.

hello to a new world

so...this is a new thing for me. i am a newbie to the blogging world, but i am finding that this is going to help me on my new adventure. i am going to be starting up with P90X, again. i started it at the beginning of december, but with a hectic work schedule and getting sick, i unfortunately had to stop it. but now i am ready to get back into the swing of things and start up my energenic, fulfilling, happy and healthy body and life! 2/15/09 will be the beginning of my new adventure. i've taken the "before" shots and along with my daily life, i will be posting my stats of weight loss and updated photos. motivation will be appreciated, because it's definitely not going to be easy! so, here we go...
