A Healthy Postpartum

To begin the journey to greater health the first thing you need is imagination. You need to see beyond today to perceive that you can indeed say no to seconds, cheesecake and overcome other struggles. Right now all your clothes fit you, your comfortable. Buy a pair of jeans a size or two to small. I knew I could make it back from 180lbs to 155 because I had been 155 only a year earlier and had an entire wardrobe I wanted to fit again.

Since last January I've become considerably healthier, tracked by weight and messurment, I've lost 35lbs and a total of 12 inches which can be seen in greater d-tail in the messurments tab above. I love feeling healthy and every time I'm excercising I get to thinking, how can I help other people break ground in their own health transformation. The best way I could think of was sharing the day by day process that brought me to where I am now.

I hope you are inpired by my fitness story. As I record my P90X round 1 journey and other health endevours I have attempted, both the successes and the failures. I stared a round of insanity assylum, but realized in the first week it was above my current abilities. I'm going to be taking the P90X challenge for another spin.

as a note, I'm still updating my 2011 P90X round 1 story, I did record most days in the journey, it's just a matter of typing them out and posting them

P90X Day 76

I'm on day 76 and I feel like giving up, I've got such good results and it's really worked, but this week has just been very discouraging because I'm not making any more progress as I haven't been eating right or getting my workout done. I don't know why all of a sudden I can't seem to eat right or get my workout in anymore I've run out of steam. Maybe it's because Wesleys been fussier than usual and caring for her has been more strenuous.

Looking over everything I've eaten today and have concluded this is my third bad day in these 76 days, and I gotta say, I feel terrible. I'm sure it's partly the heat because it's really warm in here, but I just don't feel very healthy today I've been eating way to much bad food. It's been a bad week. I hope I can do better next week. Tomorrow I'm going to do the same thing I did last monday and see if I can do a whole day of proper eating also, I'm going to call about ordering the meal shake I've been looking into getting.

I'm just discouraged about the healthy eating, I do fine in the morning it seems, but in the evenings I just eat whatevers near by which is ok when I'm in my house where there isn't really anything bad I can snack on. My mentality about food has to change, I need to be saying no more.

Today I went out to the country and spent most of the day doing things with lissy. We went for a bike ride, then swimming, and finally tanning.

I am determined not to give up. I will do better tomorrow, no excuses. I didn't come this far to give up now. I think I can get away with bad food choices, somehow I trick myself into thinking that. I can do this, and I will do it. Tomorrow will be a good day. My last week of working out and I am going to Bring It! whoo!
