Stats…
- Weight: 208 lbs.
That’s an 11 lb drop from Week 1… yay! A testament (to me) to how important it is to implement a good, healthy diet along with my fitness routine. *so happy*
In case, you haven’t followed my other P90X entries… for ease of tracking my progress, each bullet point represents the 2-digit date of the activity followed by a “:” and the 2-digit number indicating my progress within the 90-day course for P90X (i.e. – 27:01 indicates September 27th, day 1 of P90X).

All the little indicators that change has begun are so HAPPY! Like putting on the long-sleeve t-shirt my husband bought me in Japan in early September, and realizing the top of the sleeves is loose and it is also loose around my tummy now… Like putting on my tighter fit jeans and noticing the tush has some sag because they’re starting to fit loosely… Like my belt easily going to the 3rd hole without me having to think about sucking in my stomach to get it there… small victories that scream “your body is changing! hurrah!” even if I can’t visually see a big difference just yet. Certainly is motivating to keep on going, amidst muscle fatigue and general tiredness, and a whole lot of lazy trying to sneak in. 
My other find of the week, not surprising, is that it’s incredibly difficult to stick the routine when the week is not routine. We had a good friend come stay with us this weekend. I was planning to do Yoga on Saturday to make up for missing Thursday (I had to leave work early with a migraine, and didn’t get to work out). However, with a friend sleeping on the sofa, not wanting to wake him up at 7 am on a Saturday after being up past 2 am… meant Saturday was a no-go. By the time people were up we had errands to run, other friends to go visit, and found ourselves getting back home around 2 am again without having had a chance to “bring it”. And, Sunday was somewhat the same. Which reminds me I need to make time to clean out our storage room so that we can fit a fouton or something amidst the boxes so in the future our friends sleep somewhere other than the living room!
Goal for next week… hit all the workouts to be back on track, and shift the workout time to be morning each day before work so evenings are less hectic. Looking forward to it!
