I'm back!

My first go at Insanity did not go very well. I was so sore 3 days into it that I took a day off. I could barely walk, so how could I exercise?? Then the next day I got a cold. Great. Then by the time I felt good enough to start the program up, I got sick again. Then life was just crazy. The week I was going to re-start, I injured my shoulder really bad. Took my shoulder 3 weeks to heal. It is still not back 100%, but I HAVE RESTARTED THE CHALLENGE!!!!!

I'm 3 days into it and feeling great. I'm not doing the diet this go around, but I'm watching what I eat and doing portion control. So I know the results won't be as great not following the diet, but I'm going for it.

I have come to the realization that I need to be happy in my mind, body, soul & love. I've got the Love down! :) But need to work on the rest. I saw pictures of myself from last weekend, and I was not happy....those photos are my motivation to success. Other events in my life have shown I need to work on my mind & soul.

Day 2 DONE!!

So...Day 2 is now behind me! I did ok as far as eating goes. I met a friend for lunch and behaved with what I ate. It may not have been to the books of Insanity Workout, but a good choice & small portion nonetheless. I still have a meal to eat...and it is gonna be good! :)

The workout. Not quite as HARD as I thought it would be, but it still kicked my butt! I know I muttered the words "you are f'in crazy" a few times! lol Today was a cardio day. There were things that I just couldn't do in the push up position (kickbacks & such)...so I just did extra pushups! I tried to do as much as I could without pushing myself beyond my limits. I'm happy with what I did!

Ready for Day 3! DIG DEEPER PEOPLE!!

First Fit Test Results!!

So, 1st Day & Fit test complete. WOW! I felt like I was eating all day long (at every 3 hours)...but I never felt full. Just about the time I was feeling hunger, it was time to eat again, and it was enough to satisfy me. Bryan called and said he "watched" the fit test and it made him tired just watching it. I completed mine and I'm tired! LOL!! I got into a full body sweat just with this! What is tomorrow going to bring??? I'm scared. Going to rest for a bit and then eat my final meal. BTW: meals are AWESOME!!

Here are my results:
Switch Kicks - 65

Power Jacks - 38

Power Knees - 69

Power Jumps - 22

Globe Jumps - 8

Suicide Jumps - 7

Push up Jacks - 16

Low Plank Oblique - 40
