So, it’s day 55, Yoga, but it was also competition day in Connecticut. My daughter had her first cheerleading compeition and she did so well!! Her whole team did, they were so cute! Thank God I didn’t have to compete myself, because I would have definitely skipped Yoga! I was walking around that convention center all day, dragging Analise around with me. She actually fell asleep while one of the other coaches was carrying her for a good half hour! She can sleep through anything! It was like a concert in there! There was music, lights, a DJ. It was a seriously bumpin party! Anyway, the gym as a whole did great yesterday and I am so proud of them! Congratulations 3T!
(I gotta fix the date on my camera!)
I was tired when I got home, but I did pull a little Yoga out of my a** around 10 pm. Not my most productive yoga session, but can you blame me? This is the end of phase 2 anyway. Holy crap! The END of PHASE 2!!! I can’t believe it! Like I said before, I am going to be kicking the stuffing out of phase 3. I need to loose more fat!!! I weighed myself and GUESS WHAT the scale said?!?!?! 144!!!!! YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!! I lost 11 pounds!! SWEET! Once you start loosing weight and keep loosing it, that is a GREAT motivational tool!
I am also going to mimic a fellow P90X’er and keep my diet extremely simple. Egg whites, cottage cheese and a banana for breakfast, protein shake for a snack, tuna wrap or chicken salad and a yogurt for lunch, P90X bar for my second snack, then what ever I cook for my family for dinner (healthy of course). Simple.
Looking forward to Monday!!! Phase 3! Here are my week 8 pics:
Hi Erin…I’ve been contemplating getting P90X for several months now & in further research/YouTubing, stumbled on this site & your blog. It’s really appreciated, definitely gives a better synopsis on the program than the “before & after’s” on the infomercials. I used to run religiously & was pretty trim, but have put on about 30 lbs of “happy weight” since getting married 2 1/2 years ago. BLAH (on the weight, not being married, lol)! I’m back @ the gym, but I think I need something more structured like P90X.
A little tip on your joint pain from day 47; I’m only 29 & I take Osteo Bi-Flex w/ 5-loxin believe it or not. I have somewhat crappy knees; it helps w/ cartilage rebuilding & joint inflammation. I definitely notice the difference if I skip my vitamin regimen for a few days.
Thanks again! Keep up the great work…and the blogs!

Hello Laura! Thanks for the advise. I will check out that Oseto Bi-Flex. That seems like a simple solution! I am glad to hear you are going strong on day 29! I think once you pass the first week or two, you get hooked!
Good luck and let me know how your workouts are going!
