P90X week #1......

........is finally over!  I made it, and I am feeling good.  I am very sore, but I am taking it as a good thing.  The more sore I am, the more weight I am losing.  That means I am working hard (I hope that's what it means).  I have been trying to eat healthy and have stuck to the work out for the whole week.  Now to keep pressing on.  I am determined to lose this weight if it kills me (which I hope it doesn't!).  So far it is going slow, but I figure if I keep it up, it should start coming off in the next week or so, or at least I hope, because that is usually when I get discouraged.  I really need the motivatin too, and I believe that I deserve to look good, and especially if I am working this hard, I should get something out of it! 
Anyhow.... I just thought I would update everyone.  So I am off for now.  I'll probably update again, once I hit 30days (unless something drastic happens before then).

A new me.....

So, I have finally committed to doing a workout program, and I intend to actually stick to it this time.  I started P90X on Monday.  Today was day 3, and I struggled seeing as how I was still sore from Monday's workout.  I am kinda lovin' it, though.  I have a little bit more energy already, and I am getting into a good routine.  My goal is to lose at minimum, 40lbs before my hubby gets home from deployment.  However, as much as I think I might look a little sick, I think I would like to lose a bit more than that, seeing that we are going to try to get pregnant again when he gets back.  I figure that way I have room to gain weight, and if I don't lose it all, I won't be as big and as unhappy with myself.
I have before pictures and I intend to take more at 30, 60, and 90days to show my progress.  However, I do not feel comfortable showing them at this point in time.  Perhaps when it is over, and I have acheived my goal, then I will share with the world.
I do hope that I can be a motivation to someone like a friend is for me, and I will stick to it this time b/c of that.  She is helping me through, and knowing that I might actually look the way I have wanted for a long time, and be healthier to play with my daughter, also motivates me.  I want to be able to chase her, and keep up and not have to worry about not being able to breathe (which isn't just from being out of shape, but if I could eliminate that part, it would really help). 
Anyhow, that is all I have for now, but I will be posting a little more now that I have a little more free time, and I want to keep everyone informed of my progress.  Check back soon!
