Um. So apparently, today is the beginning of recovery week. I was warming up and all set to start Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps when I looked down at my worksheet and there is no week 8... Ha. So yeah, this is actually day 1 of my 2nd recovery week which I didn't realize until just now. However, (and no, this is not an excuse to skip yoga ;-) I am going to re-do chest, shoulders and tri's because last week when I attempted to do it I had a migraine and literally did up to the plange push ups (which is the 4th exercise in the workout) before quitting and I never did that workout again last week.
Yoga will have to wait.
I had a big fat plate of pasta for dinner so I'll have to burn it off with tomorrow's Core Syn :)

I just finished Chest, Shoulders and Tri's and I just want to say; I LOVE the way this workout makes my arms feel. They feel puffy and numb... and call me crazy, but I love it :) Lying Tricep extensions has got to be the most effective tricep workout I've ever done... Even though I can only really do 5 good ones before my arm gives out, they really work *just* my triceps, and do a damn good job of it.

You know, after doing some thinking about how I've been pushing hard for 50 days and my thighs STILL touch, I decided to follow a very strict diet for the next week or two. I work at Quick Weight Loss, there is no reason I can't follow the QWL diet for at least a week to see what happens. I don't need to lose weight; no no... I just need to focus on eating more balanced. Carbs have made up about 75% of my pie chart of daily foods the past few months and that's no good. I have 1/2 of a turkey sub I didn't finish today that's on white bread, but after that, I'm going to be on track with the foods I choose to eat.
I am currently weighing in between 131 and 135 (5 to 9 lbs up from when I started P90X and 12 to 16 lbs up from when I gave up on the Vegetarian thing months prior) and I'm really happy with that. I'm not looking to lose "weight" per se, because when I weight 119 as a veggie I looked sickly.... I just seriously need to cut the junk food out of my diet so my thighs are no longer conjoined. "Cricket legs" is what my ex used to call his. No more cricket legs for this chick :-)
Oh, and a couple people have asked why I didn't put up the "30 day" pictures that I took; I avoided giving an answer... Well, the reason is because my thighs still touch and because of that I am disappointed.
I will be keeping a food journal and will try to post it daily.... Again, as self motivation.
My daily Cheez-Its will be waiting for me at the end of the tunnel :-)
