Day 9 was Plyometrics again. I was not looking forward to it at all. I hate all the jumping around and last week I really sucked at it, I threw up and didn't even finish. What a difference a week makes! I did not throw up and I finished the whole DVD!!! Of course I did not do everything like Tony I did the Pam modifications on some but I tried to do everything the best that I could. I still didn't break into a sweat....uggg
I totally blew my diet! I ate out at Wendys and had a chicken sandwich with bacon and cheese on it. I drank my powerade that I already had and didn't finish even half the fries. When I came home, I literally tried to make myself throw it back up because I was so pissed at my weakness. Yeah well that didn't work. I don't know how people do it, just made my abs ache. So I failed my diet miserably more by adding on half an Almond Joy bar...yeah someone hit me already. But Day 10 is a new day because I got my nutrisystem order last night and plan on starting it Day 10.
Day 10
Shoulders and Arms
Alternating Shoulder Press 15/15
In & Out Bicep Curls 16/16
2 Arm Tricep Kickbacks 15/15
Deep Swimmers Press 15/15
Full Suppinations 16/16
Chair Dips 20 knees bent/20 legs straight
Well, I currently have lost my paper with my stuff on them...
I guess I will have to come back later when I find it
My average life is not so average sometimes.......
My life as a mother of 3, a soldier's wife, a soldier's daughter, and an Army veteran myself. I struggle day to day with things as small as diaper changing to my faith and not wanting to jump out a window...life is boring and exciting at the same time.

Today though I felt like I kept up and did so much better than the first time through this DVD. I am doing push ups off my knees again and I can't believe it! Super stoked!!!! I did the military push ups on my knees because he says its about form, and my form doesn't work on these yet unless I am on my knees... that's okay because I am doing better. Abs?? Not sure, I think I didn't do as well today but we do it like 3 times a week and can't help it if I am sore but the last two times I did really good I thought. I am almost keeping up with the mason twists which is huge for me..
MINI CELEBRATION time, I have lost 3 pounds and I am already noticing a difference in my clothes and how they fit. I put on a pair of jeans that I bought in December that were tight but fit but gave me some muffin top issues and I put the on today and they slid on no problem and no muffin top hanging over anymore on these babies! Yeah, little inspiration to get up and do it again tomorrow!
I like the energy boost I have too. I am eating better, I am working out and I know it! lol My body is not giving up on me anymore. I used to complain about having to park to far from anything and having to walk any distance to get somewhere and now I am like, whatever we can park in the back row and walk it! I am already playing with my kids more and spending time in the yard with them. I know its only been a week but its been 6 years since I worked out like this and ate right...and my body is happy. I am happy too. Sore and tired because I am not a morning person but I am working through it and getting it done!

P90X Day 5 and Day 6
I can't remember my calorie totals cuz I waited too long to blog them but that is okay because I know I stayed under my 1300 calories.
Day five was: Legs & Back
While I was stretching on this one omg, my left bicep (maybe) felt like it was going to tear in half! When we do this one he says scrape the wall with your elbows and I thought my arm was broken....
When I was prego with my first I got the pregnancy leg cramps in my calves and if you don't know what that's like you don't know pain! Well I got them in both legs and I called my mom who was downstairs and told her I some how broke my legs while I was sleeping. I was screaming and crying so hard. She dropped her phone and raced up and then realized what it was....yeah ever since then 6 years ago I still get them occasionally and it still feels like someone is snapping my legs in half at the calves.
So...it felt like that was happening in my arm too...but I was able to work thru it.
The calf raises...wow by the end of that I could barely stand. But after I finished the whole workout I didn't feel it as much as the others. I don't think I am bringing it enough...I need to push harder!
Balance Lunges 25L/25R
Calf Raise Squats 20 w/ 3 lbs
Reverse Grip Chin Ups (all w/chair) 10/5
Super Skaters 25L/25R
Wall Squats 90 secs
Wide Front Pull Ups 10/10
Step Back Lunges 10L/10R
Alternating Side Lunges 24
Close Grip Over Hand Pull Ups 8/8
Single Leg Wall Squat (I did regular) 60 secs
Dead Lift Squats 18L/18R
Switch Grip Pull Ups 8/8
Three Way Lunges 5/5
Sneaky Lunges
Chair Salutations 1 of 2 only
Toe Roll Iso Lunges 20/20
Groucho Walk 45 secs
Calf Raises 90 Secs
80/20 Siebero Speed Squats 30L/30R
Then I might have blown my dieting a little...we went to Darlington Speedway and there was nothing there to eat but bad food. But I think I made it by cutting way way back during the day.
The Nascar race was awesome!
We got home at 3 am and had to get up for Church and be there by 1030. We made it!
Then we went out to eat after, I didn't want to because I knew I would blow my diet! And I ate yummy italian food!!! But I only ate half of everything that I normally would have even though I wanted to devour it all....so good. Plus it was the only thing I ate all of Sunday.
Sunday my workout Day 6 was supposed to be Kenpo X....well I took a nap at 5 pm until 7....a gift from my hubby cuz naps in this house for me are impossible. Unfortunately I was wide awake and for a while kept putting my workout off cuz I do them in the morning but because of the race I didn't. Well I worked out at like 1 am....lol but I did it and it felt good.
Kenpo X
Got my heart pumping thats for sure but I looked like an idiot trying to do these moves! Oh my goodness, I could never ever let anyone see me doing these. I know I didn't do the moves right but I did the best I could and kept moving the whole time. My problem is I never feel like I am working hard enough because I don't sweat, I get a little perspiration but nothing like I see everyone else especially those on the videos.
I don't know I just never have even when I was in the Army I just don't sweat like others. Its kind of frustrating. But I enjoyed the workout it seemed to go by so quick it was fun.
So over the weekend I did my workouts! Diet...sketchy.
And as a present for mother's day my hubby bought me the nutrisystem for 28 days!!!!!!!!
Holy Crap I am so excited!!!!! 3 meals a day and a dessert all just for me! We are only going to do it for the one month though because they had a 50% off special. We got it for 166 when it is normally 392.
Shawn said he is trying to help me because it is all I talk about, getting fit. He said either buy the food or spend the 166 on other things I wanted. But I went for the food because I am tired of my 2 shakes and a salad a day routine already!
Says it will take about 10 days to get here but thats okay once it does that will be awesome.
Today is Day 7 for me, my rest or stretch day.
I think I will do the stretch a little later or use today for cardio walk because it is supposed to be beautiful out today and I am sore but I feel really good even though I went to bed at 3 and got up at 830.
I am feeling good. Oh and my favorite cousin is doing Insanity now, she started this morning. I am so proud of her. When she told me she was starting today, I told her I was doing P90X, I haven't told anyone else except my hubby. I want others to see the results when I am done.
This was Sam in high school:
Now a family and two babies and she is unhappy too so we are both on a journey, her in NY and me in NC but we both want to be healthy and show our kids how to be healthy too!

P90X Day 4...not!
Day 3 totals=
2 shakes 620 calories
1 bar 90 calories
1 yogurt 80 calories
dinner 350 calories
total 1140 calories
NOW....
Day 4 I am not not not happy about
So I got to sleep in til 615 this morning because my hubby didn't get up until then. I was a little worried because of the time and the kids might getting up while I was still working out. No need to worry...grrr
So my husband left and I pop in the Yoga disc, I am already thinking its going to be relaxing day because its a 90 minute yoga dvd. WRONG!!!! Its 30 seconds and skip, skip, skip stops playing!!! OH heck no!!! I take it out and flip it over...no scratches at all. I try it again and nothing but skipping. So I freak out and go through all the rest of the discs to see if any of the rest are messed up. There are 12 discs. I get all the way til number 11...Cardio and once again skip skip skip stop and no scratches. Now I should have known it was too good to be true.
I bought my P90X off of ebay for 94.99 and when I got it was still in shrink wrap! I was like wow it is new...huh. But when I went to go to let them know I got it the transaction had somehow been deleted from my account. I have no idea how they did that but there is no evidence of it there anymore except that they got thier money of course... but I can't complain really. So I did alot of web surfing this morning and whining.
I have purchased anther P90X Cardio DVD from a different ebay member. I don't need that DVD for a couple of weeks still so I am not worried. I am sure its a burned copy but as long as it plays at this point I don't care if its in Arabic as long as I can see Tony do it!.
One lady said that the Yoga wasn't really that good but others said it was awesome, so I don't know. The one who said it wasn't that good said to just do the stretching instead....we will see.

P90X Day 3
Finishing up day 2 totals..
but first a note about day 1 totals my slim fast drinks actually totalled to 310 each because I didn't realize its 200 calories if you drink skim milk. I drink 1% so that's an extra 220 calories on my total.
Day two totals-
Short day because it only lasted from 1030-2130
Slim fast 310 calories
Nut mix-160 Calories
Special K bar-90 calories
1/2 slice ham n cheese loaf-30 calories
1/2 garlic toast-70 calories
salad-approx-250 calories
total=910 calories
Now today. I finally took my Before photos this morning, I know I was supposed to take them already but I honestly didn't think I would stick with the program at first so I didn't want to take them and waste my time. But I am enjoying the burn again! Last night I told my husband I am doing the program, I hadn't told him either for the same reason. He smiled and said so in 90 days and I said no in 88 days there should be some changes in this body and he said well your already hot and sexy. I love the man but if he didn't say it I would have been upset but I know I am not, I am not huge but I am not the woman who first turned his head either.
Today's workout was Shoulders, Arms and the Ab Ripper X..again!
Alternating Shoulder Press 16/15
Bicep In & Out Curls 16/20
Two Arm Tricep Kickbacks 13/14
Deep Swimmers Press 12/13
Full Supination Concentration Curls 12/12
Chair Dips 20/20 I did half knees bent and half straight legged
Upright Rows 14/15
Static Arm Curls 16/16
Flip Grip Twist Kickbacks 14/14
Seated Shoulder Flys 12/16
Crouching Cohen Curls 18/18
Lying Down Tricep Extensions 8 w bands/16 w 3lb weights
Straight Arm Shoulder Flys 14/14
Congdon Curls 16/18
Side Tri Rise 16L 16R/16L 16R
The Ab Ripper X...me and that 15 minutes are going to argue the entire 90 days I tell you what! There are 2 or 3 moves that I don't know if I will ever be able to do and not because of my physical fitness but because it hurts my back so dang much. I have a prior back injury from Iraq and I have constant lower back pain that I receive disability for. Its just the ones where I have to roll straight up from lying on my back with no assistance I can feel every part of my back scream and crack and want to break! So what I have been doing for now is substituting those for the one that has been the hardest for me to do and that is the froggy crunch which I am getting better at now. Today I did do better on the whole workout but still no where near as good as I want to be. I must admit I am proud of myself for not crawling back into bed after my husband left. I can and will do this!
Tonight I plan on getting all my body measurements, I tried doing it myself but I think I did it wrong, so I am going to ask my hubby to help me tonight...yikes, I don't want him to know these numbers but hopefully in 87 days they will be much better. So August 1st is deadline day for my program and I am hoping I will be able to post my before and after pics then! I don't know how much help it will be on my mommy belly because I have had 3 repeat c-sections..but I am sure hoping it will help. I will be 30 in three years and I want to go into my 30s looking like I still have the body of a young 20 year old.
My whole body is hurting but it hurts so good! Yeah, off to maybe mow the yard if I can make it work....it hates me lol so I can stay active, let the kids play outside and surprise my hubby! Wish me luck oh and don't forget its the National Day of Prayer, give thanks to God today everyone, you should everyday but today as a nation we should all take two minutes out of our busy day to tell Him we love Him.

P90X Day 2
Well as for the rest of Day 1 I ate 2 slim fast shakes that were each 200 calories
one salad with chicken that was about 300 calories
one special k bar that was 90 calories
and a blueberry yougurt that was 80 calories
grand total of 870 calories for the day.
I thought at the end of the night that I wasn't really sore at was kind of disappointed....ha! I was wrong!
I went to bed and at 330 this morning I was awoken by a scream, my son who is potty training was screaming. He woke up his little sister even from his screaming. I went down to see why he was screaming and he was screaming and it was because he had to go potty and he wouldn't go in his pullup. Of course that is awesome but for some one who is trying to sleep and get up at 5 am its not so fun. He went potty but once his sister is awake she is awake. I eventually got him back to sleep but crawling in his toddler bed with him and falling asleep with him while his sister fell played in the room.
So we all fell asleep in the toddler beds (ouch) and slept til 1030!!!!
I got off to a late start!
So I finally got to day 2 and holy moly as soon as I started warming up I started feeling sore from the day before! Plyometrics kicked my butt, i almost puked twice. I quit before the last 5 minutes because I was so dizzy from not eating for so long that I was sure if I didn't sit down I was going to pass out.
But I did push myself and I am sore but it feels good to know I am doing something good for myself.
I have 88 more days to go! lol

P90X day 1
So I did it! I did day one of P90X
I am going to have to come back and add more to this once I get all my measurements and all but I plan to log each day so I can keep track and motivate myself and stay on track too lol.
I got up at 5 am as usual. I get up and make my husband's lunch for him and then I go back to bed usually til sometime between 730-900 depending on my kids. But today I stayed up and went downstairs and tried to turn on my xbox 360 to do the dvd. For some reason there was no sound. I don't know why. I was discouraged at first but I refused to let it get me down so I said I will not quit! Although my bed said come back to me....lol
I switched the dvd to the laptop, it started and then the laptop started acting crazy, mind you its been acting crazy for weeks now. I quickly ejected it out of the old laptop and put it in my new laptop my Grandma just bought me two weeks ago. Why I didn't do this first? It was upstairs next to my bed and I didn't want to go back up there....but I ran up the stairs grabbed it and ran back down as to not be tempted by the fluffy comforter!
I popped the dvd in and tada there was the first workout here are my results from the
Chest and Back:
Push Ups: 25/22
Pull Ups:15/10
Military Push Ups:15/16
Reverse Pull Ups:15/15
Wide Fly Push Ups:15/17
Close Hand Pull Ups:17/10
Decline Push Ups:5/1 *Only push ups I didn't do on my knees
Heavy Pants: 25 reps/25 reps
Diamond Push Ups: 5/5
Lawnmower: 15 reps/15 reps *doubled weight on second set
Nose-Chest-Hips:0/0 very unsuccessful
Back Flys:15 reps/25 reps
The first time we went threw it I didn't give 100 % cuz I didn't want to burn myself out because I had no idea what I was getting myself into. The second time you go threw it he says give it everything. All the push ups except the decline I had to do on my knees. I used to be in the Army and used to max my push ups...ohh how the mighty have fallen crashed and burned!!! I used 3 lb weights for everything...why? Cuz that is all I have! I definitely need heavier weights though! or just a set of resistance bands... I got a chin up bar too. Got it this weekend, my husband has no idea why I had him install it. Thinks I just want to do pull ups. lol It cost 19.77 at Wal mart and took him less than 10 minutes to install it for me. I got the kind that has the swing bar on it so i don't do an actual pull up I do the modified one but I am hoping that eventually one day I will!
After the Chest and Back dvd I attempted the next dvd your supposed to do on day 1. Ha!!! the Ab ripper X! Yeah I didn't finish a single exercise of the 15 minute dvd. Holy crap. I attempted them all but I could do the whole 25 reps of any of them. I tried but I am even more out of shape than I thought. Your supposed to do that workout 3 times a week i think...i think i need it every day! lol I am ashamed of myself!
As for my diet? I bought Jillian Michaels kit for 19.99 at Wal Mart (I know) that has some detox stuff I take and then fat burning stuff later and every morning I am taking vitamin B12 for hopefully energy boost. I had a whole bottle of water during my workout and then I had a slimfast drink for breakfast -200 calories. So I will continue to record as the day goes on. But at least i did it! Go me lol

I switched the dvd to the laptop, it started and then the laptop started acting crazy, mind you its been acting crazy for weeks now. I quickly ejected it out of the old laptop and put it in my new laptop my Grandma just bought me two weeks ago. Why I didn't do this first? It was upstairs next to my bed and I didn't want to go back up there....but I ran up the stairs grabbed it and ran back down as to not be tempted by the fluffy comforter!
I popped the dvd in and tada there was the first workout here are my results from the
Chest and Back:
Push Ups: 25/22
Pull Ups:15/10
Military Push Ups:15/16
Reverse Pull Ups:15/15
Wide Fly Push Ups:15/17
Close Hand Pull Ups:17/10
Decline Push Ups:5/1 *Only push ups I didn't do on my knees
Heavy Pants: 25 reps/25 reps
Diamond Push Ups: 5/5
Lawnmower: 15 reps/15 reps *doubled weight on second set
Nose-Chest-Hips:0/0 very unsuccessful
Back Flys:15 reps/25 reps
The first time we went threw it I didn't give 100 % cuz I didn't want to burn myself out because I had no idea what I was getting myself into. The second time you go threw it he says give it everything. All the push ups except the decline I had to do on my knees. I used to be in the Army and used to max my push ups...ohh how the mighty have fallen crashed and burned!!! I used 3 lb weights for everything...why? Cuz that is all I have! I definitely need heavier weights though! or just a set of resistance bands... I got a chin up bar too. Got it this weekend, my husband has no idea why I had him install it. Thinks I just want to do pull ups. lol It cost 19.77 at Wal mart and took him less than 10 minutes to install it for me. I got the kind that has the swing bar on it so i don't do an actual pull up I do the modified one but I am hoping that eventually one day I will!
After the Chest and Back dvd I attempted the next dvd your supposed to do on day 1. Ha!!! the Ab ripper X! Yeah I didn't finish a single exercise of the 15 minute dvd. Holy crap. I attempted them all but I could do the whole 25 reps of any of them. I tried but I am even more out of shape than I thought. Your supposed to do that workout 3 times a week i think...i think i need it every day! lol I am ashamed of myself!
As for my diet? I bought Jillian Michaels kit for 19.99 at Wal Mart (I know) that has some detox stuff I take and then fat burning stuff later and every morning I am taking vitamin B12 for hopefully energy boost. I had a whole bottle of water during my workout and then I had a slimfast drink for breakfast -200 calories. So I will continue to record as the day goes on. But at least i did it! Go me lol
