P90X - Day 15

March 4, 2012

Weigh-In:

     Today's weight was..... 228.0, YEAH even with my week of skipping workouts I was able to take off a little bit of weight. I'll take the additional 1.8 lbs that is gone!

Workout:
     AHHHHHH Sunday my day of rest! I so enjoy you :-) No workout for me today, just church and beautiful sunshine today!
Diet:
     Sunday is not only my day of rest, but also my weigh-In and diet "Cheat" day - now I assure you that I am not going to use it as an excuse to gorge, but I have read and most of my skinny friends attest to enjoying a built in "cheat" day in their schedules. It is suppose to make sticking to a regimented eating plan easier as well as trick your body out of the starvation mode it can get into from too many low-calorie days. Studies show that by upping your calories (just 200-300 cals) on a random day each week that you can actually drop weight more quickly and avoid plateaus, thus see better overall results.
