So we fell off the wagon.
I don't think either of us was prepared for Dave's work schedule last weekend. We didn't have a plan and it bit us in the pa-toot. Obviously after you skip one day, the next day is easier to skip and then the next and before you know it a whole week has gone by and your previously mentioned pa-toot is not getting any smaller.
So now we have a plan. Re-start our 90 days on Monday 1/17/2011 and then we can rest on Sunday (instead of Monday) and we do our workout every day at 9am. We have re-committed to this and now that we know where are weaknesses are, we are better prepared.
Also, I am tweaking the P90X routine a bit. Mainly because I despise yoga. I hate yoga *almost* as much as I hate winter...almost. So we are supplementing our yoga days with Jillian Michael's workouts. Maybe when we are skinner, we (read: Cara) won't hate yoga so much. (Although I am not betting on that.)
I am also going to ask for some prayers for us. After the 1 week of P90X, I didn't lose a pound, in fact I gained 3 pounds. (If one person makes the muscles weigh more that fat comment, I will punch you in the mouth. I don't care. I want to lose WEIGHT! What good are muscles that are covered in layers of fat? That's right, no good at all.) I think the weigh gain also contributed to my de-motivation and excuses for missing an entire week. Working so hard, watching what you eat, etc and then watching the scale move in the other direction is more that depressing...it is heart breaking. It is my worse fear...failure. I fear doing this for 90 days, blogging and sharing with our friends and family and having nothing to show for it. Since my weight has been a struggle for me my whole life, failure now is what I fear most. So again, I ask you for some prayers.
Prayers for motivation, prayers for confidence, prayers for progress. I will take all I can get. :)
