P90X - Day 22

March 11, 2012

Weigh-In:
     Today’s weigh-in was 226.0…. 2lbs lost! That means that in just 21 days I have lost 10lbs! This makes me very happy since I expected with my stress filled week that I would not make any change on the scale. This also gives me more enthusiasm to try extra hard this coming week to keep it off!

Workout:
     Since I had such sedentary days thurs-sat, I decided to participate in some “active-rest” activities today. Active Rest activities would be exercising in a low-impact manner. Some examples would be walking, light hiking, light biking, stretching/yoga anything that keeps you moving but is not making your heart or muscles workout.
     I popped in the STRETCH X dvd from my P90X collection and had a very peaceful time stretching & relaxing every muscle in my body!

Diet:
     Today is my extra high calorie day, but since I had one earlier this week I kept it in the low range of high calorie. It was my foster sons birthday today so we had party food. I did ok on cake but lost control on the butterfinger ice cream :-) Still a major improvement from all the previous birthdays where I had the HUGE piece of cake AND the 3 scoops of ice cream!
